The purpose-built Stella Australis exploration vessel has been perfectly designed for discovering the fjords of Patagonia, from its cosy cabins to the Darwin Lounge? and outdoor decks. The accommodation options onboard are split into six different categories, ranging from B Class to AAA Superior, enjoying floorplans of up to 220sq ft.
There’s a choice of either one queen-size or twin beds, with the main differences between cabin classes being the available floorplan and exact position in the boat, with higher category rooms enjoying elevated views on the ship’s higher decks. Every cabin then comes with an en suite bathroom, seating area, a desk and of course, those huge observation windows.
