Spirit of Discovery

Saga Cruises' newest ship, Spirit of Discovery was launched in summer 2019. Inspired by designs from some of the world's top hotels, Spirit of Discovery has a distinctly British feel. With all cabins having a balcony, you'll have your own outside space from where to enjoy the passing scenery. 

Spirit of Discovery offers plenty of space to relax with two pools, a gym and a Spa with hydrotherapy pool. The Lounge will be the place to grab a coffee with friends or relax with a pre-dinner drink before enjoying a show from the ship's own theatre company or guest entertainers in the Playhouse. If you want to research your next port of call or catch up with friends via email head to the library or learn a new skill in the workshops in the adjoining craft area. 

Spirit of Discovery offers a range of dining experiences, from à la carte fine dining and Asian cuisine to Saga's first seafood restaurant.

The Club by Jools Holland

Jools Holland will be the face of an exciting new venue aboard Spirit of Discovery. Jools and his band will be playing live on several cruises. Recalling the famous music lounges of the 1950s, The Club by Jools will combine sumptuous cocktails and dining with live music. The cuisine will rival the world’s best supper clubs, with classic starters such as Cornish Crab Cakes and Baked Four Onion Soup. Among the sumptuous mains, you can look forward to Grilled Half Lobster, Surf n Turf Fillet and Grilled Dover Sole with Braised Young Leek and Artichoke. As with all the restaurants aboard Spirit of Discovery, dining in The Club by Jools is included in your fare.

Your boutique bedroom at sea

At the heart of every luxury boutique hotel are the bedrooms: your own haven to relax while enjoying your own personal space. And with an average floor plan of 215 square feet as standard, there’s quite a bit of space to enjoy.

Taking their design cues from some of London’s top hotels, each cabin has been styled to showcase the best in contemporary, yet classic British design. Best of all, every cabin has a balcony, giving you your own outside space too. Plus, there’s over 100 cabins for solo travellers.
