Bahamas Paradise Cruise Line announced today that it is rebranding as Margaritaville at Sea, and its Grand Classica ship will become Margaritaville Paradise, with its debut scheduled for April 30, 2022.

“We’re excited about this new partnership as we launch Margaritaville at Sea out of the Port of Palm Beach,” said Oneil Khosa, CEO of Bahamas Paradise Cruise Line, who will also serve as CEO of  Margaritaville at Sea.

“We are incredibly proud of what we’ve built at Bahamas Paradise Cruise Line and are appreciative of our loyal customers and trade partners who have stood by us through so much,” Khosa added. “We’re excited about this next phase of our evolution, rebranding as Margaritaville at Sea. The collaborative concept will add a different dimension to the cruising industry, appealing to a new audience of travelers. Margaritaville at Sea will provide guests with Margaritaville’s authentic culture, entertainment, and food en route to a beautiful destination in Grand Bahama Island. The experience will be complemented by an unmatched, personalized approach to guest service from start to finish via valet service and exclusive cruise terminals for smoother embarkation and disembarkation. It’s the perfect partnership in paradise.”

Following a refurbishment, the 10-deck Margaritaville Paradise will encompass 658 private cabins and themed public venues, all featuring “Margaritaville’s signature casual-luxe design with subtle nautical details and colors influenced by the surrounding sea, sand, and sky,” according to the new brand.

“To me, the only thing better than being on a beach by the ocean, is to be on the ocean. Now you can follow in our wake,” said namesake singer, songwriter and best-selling author, Jimmy Buffett.

Included food and beverage offerings therein will be JWB Prime Steak & Seafood, Frank and Lola’s Pizzeria, Port of Indecision Buffet, LandShark Sports Bar, Margaritaville Coffee & Pastry Shop, Euphoria Lounge, Sunset Bar and 5 o’Clock Somewhere Bar. Other activity and entertainment venues will include Par-A-Dice Casino, Stars on the Water Theater, St. Somewhere Spa and Fins Up! Fitness Center, as well as pools, a retail shop and more.

“Margaritaville at Sea will be a new, exciting, and fun way for guests to escape and vacation in Margaritaville,” said John Cohlan, CEO of Margaritaville. “From oceans to lakes, Margaritaville has an organic tie to the water and with Margaritaville at Sea, we’re able to put our iconic lifestyle, resort experiences, and elevated service directly on the sea. We look forward to seeing guests on, and in, Paradise.”
