Seven Seas Prestige ushers in a new era of ultra-luxury cruising
Regent Seven Seas Cruises is setting a new gold standard in ocean travel with the launch of Seven Seas Prestige, the latest jewel in its world-renowned fleet. Arriving in winter 2026, this all-suite, all-balcony vessel is more than just a ship – it's a floating palace designed for discerning travellers who expect the very best. With sweeping ocean views, curated culinary experiences, exquisite design and peerless service, Seven Seas Prestige is poised to redefine the art of luxury cruising. Be among the first to discover Seven Seas Prestige 's newly revealed Inaugural Season itineraries today and prepare to secure your suite when reservations open on 25 June 2025. A floating masterpiece At 77,000 tons and carrying just 822 guests with 630 dedicated crew members, Seven Seas Prestige offers one of the highest space-to-guest and crew-to-guest ratios in the cruise industry. With a crew-to-guest ratio of 1:1.31 and a ship that is 40 per cent larger than previous Regent ships – yet accommodates only 10 per cent more guests – it delivers truly unrivalled space at sea. Every inch of the ship is designed to elevate the senses. From the sun-kissed Pool Deck to the refined Solara Sports Deck, where pickleball and golf meet panoramic sea views, guests will find space to relax or revive at their own pace. Grand spaces, thoughtful detail The ship's Starlight Atrium forms the heart of this extraordinary vessel. Here, golden spiral staircases ascend beneath soaring arches, casting a soft glow on intimate gatherings and spontaneous conversations. Just steps away is Galileo's Bar, a glamorous social hub where hand-crafted cocktails meet soft jazz and storytelling among new friends. For those seeking entertainment, the Constellation Theater dazzles with world-class performances, while Coffee Connection, inspired by the great cafés of Europe, serves as a lively meeting point from morning espresso to late afternoon pastries. Epicurean perfection Seven Seas Prestige introduces a new legacy of epicurean perfection, with dining venues that span the globe. Signature favourites such as Prime 7, Compass Rose and Sette Mari at La Veranda are joined by Azure, an all-new Mediterranean restaurant designed with handwoven textures, sky-blue tones, and flavours kissed by citrus, olives and herbs. Food lovers will also delight in the Culinary Arts Kitchen, where hands-on cooking classes – led by expert chefs – turn local ingredients into global masterpieces. After dining, guests can retreat to the Serene Spa & Wellness, a sanctuary of calm where warm stone, gentle light and state-of-the-art thermal suites offer deep relaxation. Expect salt-infused steam rooms, hydrotherapy pools and bespoke treatments crafted for serenity at sea. The suite life, elevated Accommodation aboard Seven Seas Prestige is nothing short of extraordinary. From the elegant Deluxe Veranda Suites to the palatial Skyview Regent Suite, every space is a masterclass in design, comfort and sophistication. At the very pinnacle is the Skyview Regent Suite, accommodating up to six guests and spanning over 8,700 square feet. With two bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms, a private in-suite elevator and panoramic wraparound balconies, it is truly the most exclusive address at sea. A private gym, personal sauna, and opulent bar complete the rarefied experience. The brand-new Skyview Suites – Aura, Luna and Sola – offer a similarly elevated lifestyle, with two-storey layouts, jetted baths on private terraces and access to Deck 15, which is reserved exclusively for this suite category. Further accommodation options include the Signature Suites, new two-storey Grand Loft Suites and the mid-century styled Grand Suites – all offering vast private terraces, walk-in wardrobes and marble-clad bathrooms. Not forgetting the Penthouse Suites which deliver elegant detailing, personal butler service and plush furnishings designed to cradle you in comfort. Inaugural journeys, lasting impressions Seven Seas Prestige embarks on its Inaugural Season in 2026, setting sail on itineraries that promise not only natural beauty but cultural richness, from sunlit Mediterranean ports to ancient harbours and modern marvels. Along the way, Regent's renowned heartfelt hospitality ensures every moment on board feels deeply personal and unforgettable. The new features will further elevate the most inclusive luxury experience, which Regent is renowned for, with inclusions such as unlimited shore excursions in every port of call, gourmet cuisine in a range of speciality and al fresco dining venues, fine wines and spirits, onboard entertainment, Starlink Wi-Fi access, unlimited valet laundry service, pre-paid gratuities and a one-night pre-cruise hotel package for guests in Concierge-level suites and above.
