The fleet of ultra-luxury liners is getting its most elegant ship to date.
It’s been a decade since Regent Seven Seas Cruises launched a new class of ship, that’s a long time for the superstars of luxury cruising to have finessed and refined their aspirations for their brand-new vessel – Seven Seas Prestige.
Already operating a fleet of ships that have been elevating the all-inclusive ultra-luxury cruise scene for over 30 years, Seven Seas Prestige joins the family as its most roomy addition yet, with the highest space-to-guest and crew-to-guest ratio in the industry; for the number lovers, that’s just 10% more guests than the brand’s other ships while boasting 40% more space onboard. All-balcony suites add to the room to breathe – and with 11 dining experiences in total, no foodies are left waiting for a table.
Exploring the Caribbean and Europe on 13 voyages during her inaugural season, packed with shore excursions and onboard distractions, the ship’s classic maiden voyage from Barcelona to Miami has proven to be in high demand (breaking the brand’s previous launch day record no less). Spots are still available to book throughout sailings during her first season though, so if its popularity isn't enough motivation to discover more, then the rundown of what to expect on deck will be.
Among the 12 suite categories aboard Seven Seas Prestige, three have been created just for her: the impressive dual-level Grand Loft Suites; the Horizon Penthouse Suites with their oversized balconies, and the dramatic two-storey Skyview Suites, complete with private rooftop terraces. The crowning glory, however, is the SkyView Regent Suite, hailed as the largest all-inclusive ultra-luxury suite ever.
There’s some European-inspired newness to be found in the communal areas too. Soaring seven decks high to a glass ceiling above, the Starlight Atrium takes its cues from the grandeur of the Renaissance, complimenting the Italian influences of the reimagined Galileo’s Bar. And finally, there’s Azure, the Mediterranean restaurant with a delightful mezze menu.
Designed to enhance, not change, the new additions have only made the all-inclusive nature of a Regent Seven Seas cruise even more superior. Unlimited shore excursions are still to be expected at every destination, led by local thought leaders and renowned experts – some of whom can also be found delivering ooh-aah-worthy lectures onboard.
Almost as eclectic as the excursions is the cuisine, gourmet in style and global in offering, including favourites like pan-Asian Pacific Rim, Sette Mari at La Veranda serving Italian fare on Regent’s largest al fresco dining area to date, and Compass Rose where guests have the freedom of customisable dishes each night. And ever-present among it all is the diligent staff, working tirelessly to make every voyage unforgettable.
