Regent Seven Seas Cruises has unveiled a stunning range of designs for its new ship Seven Seas Grandeur including all 15 suite categories, from the one-of-a-kind Regent Suite – with reimagined space “The Parlor” – to the spacious Veranda Suite.
In addition, new designs of restaurants Prime 7 and Chartreuse, and a rejuvenated Observation Lounge, have been teased.
It was also announced that the ship, which embodies three decades of excellence in delivering unrivaled experiences, will commence her inaugural season in November 2023, cruising 17 voyages in the Caribbean and the Mediterranean, plus 2 transatlantic crossings, all ranging from 7 to 16 nights in length.
Reservations for Seven Seas Grandeur’s inaugural season go on sale September 22, 2021, with the cruise line hopeful for a fifth record-breaking launch within a year, after the huge successes of its 2024 World Cruise and 2023–2024 Voyage Collection opening days.

“Following the recent unveiling of Seven Seas Grandeur’s breathtaking Compass Rose restaurant, which was extremely well received, we are delighted to reveal further features of the latest member of the world’s most luxurious fleet,” said Jason Montague, president and chief executive officer, Regent Seven Seas Cruises.
“In just over two short years, luxury travelers will have even more choice of ship to explore the world on, while enjoying the unrivaled Regent experience, starting with a wonderful selection of Caribbean and Mediterranean cruises. I am sure the itineraries will be tremendously popular when they go on sale soon.”
Seven Seas Grandeur will host only 750 guests and have a gross tonnage of 55,500, providing among the highest space ratios and staff-to-guest ratios in the industry.
She is a sister ship to Seven Seas Explorer, the most luxurious ship ever built, and Seven Seas Splendor, the ship that perfects luxury, and will offer the highest standards of service which is found across the Regent fleet.
She will also provide guests with every imaginable luxury, such as unlimited complimentary shore excursions, round-trip business-class air on intercontinental flights from the U.S. and Canada, gourmet cuisine in a range of specialty restaurants, premium beverages throughout the ship, entertainment, unlimited internet access, free valet laundry, pre-paid gratuities, ground transfers and one-night, pre-cruise hotel packages for guests staying in Concierge-level suites and higher.

The Art of Luxury Showcased in Brand New Designs
For new ship Seven Seas Grandeur, the award-winning Studio DADO - specialists in boutique cruising and hospitality interior design - were engaged by Regent Seven Seas Cruises to reimagine the distinct level of luxury found on board The World’s Most Luxurious Fleet.
Inspired by close to 30 years of unrivaled experiences, the new designs illustrate how the partnership has taken modern luxury cruising to new aesthetic heights, from all-suite, all-balcony accommodations to transformative dining experiences.
“A canvas such as Seven Seas Grandeur is a designer’s dream,” said Yohandel Ruiz, founding partner, Studio DADO. “The level of luxury needed requires us to consider and perfect every single detail that the discerning Regent guest will experience. Not only is the functionality of each individual space of the highest importance, whether it’s indulging in a gourmet meal or reclining on a plush mattress for a restorative sleep following a day of exploring, but the finest of materials must work in perfect harmony too, from textures to color tones. It’s a challenge to relish.”
The Regent Suite
An evolution of luxury, every element of the Regent Suite has been treated as a piece of art, from the highest quality textiles to hand-selected furnishings. New for the Regent Suite is a skylit, glass-enclosed parlor adorned with two chaise lounges allowing for afternoon daydreaming or nighttime stargazing.
The 4,443 square foot suite, which overlooks the bow of the ship, modernizes the traditional, offering pure luxury in the form of two spacious bedrooms, 2 and a half marble and stone detailed bathrooms, a living room with personalized bar set-up and a dining room.
A private in-suite spa - with unlimited complimentary treatments, sauna, steam room, and jetted bathtub - caps off a truly indulgent hideaway.
Distinctive Suites
From the contemporary, yet timeless Master Suite, to the expansive Seven Seas Suite, Seven Seas Grandeur’s Distinctive Suites are surpassed by only the Regent Suite in terms of luxury and opulence. All deliver the highest levels of service, including individualized butler service.
Master Suite
At up to 2,108 square feet, the Master Suite offers two spacious bedrooms, two marble and stone detailed bathrooms, and up to 994 square feet of balcony space. There are 4 Master Suites on board.

Spacious Suites
Epitomizing luxury living, Seven Seas Grandeur’s Spacious Suites are comprised of the Penthouse Suite, Concierge Suite and Superior Suite. All boast amenities such as luxurious bath soaps and lotions and personalized mini bar.

Transformative Dining
With the already revealed, reimagined design of Compass Rose, Regent signaled its intention that Seven Seas Grandeur will, very much in the tradition of the cruise line, continue to curate unforgettable dining experiences in a range of spectacular, yet intimate restaurants.
The new renderings unveiled for two more of its celebrated dining venues - the sublime Prime 7 steakhouse and decadent French Chartreuse - tell the story of the restaurants’ nostalgic design inspirations from 1925 Paris and the Art Deco movement, to the romance of turn of the century New York.
Observation Lounge - Expansive Elegance
From offering quiet alcove seating while watching a never-ending ocean sunset, to serving refreshing cocktails under an organic art nouveau inspired mesh crystal chandelier, no single public space encapsulates how Regent can provide for every mood and deliver bespoke unrivaled experiences quite like the new design of Seven Seas Grandeur’s Observation Lounge.
Seven Seas Grandeur’s Inaugural Sailings
Seven Seas Grandeur’s first sailing will be November 25, 2023, when she makes her way across the Atlantic on a 14-night cruise from Barcelona, Spain to Miami, Florida visiting, Seville (Cadiz), Spain; Funchal (Madeira), Portugal; and the pink sand beaches of Bermuda.
From Miami, the ship explores the Western Caribbean on a 7-night sailing which includes a stop at the cruise line’s private island, Harvest Caye, Belize. The festive period is then primarily spent exploring Central America which, following a transit of the Panama Canal, visits ports in Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Guatemala, and Mexico. The 16-night cruise ends in Los Angeles, California with Christmas Day spent in Cartagena, Colombia and New Year’s Day in Acapulco, Mexico.
On January 8, 2024, Seven Seas Grandeur enjoys 16 nights cruising her way back to Miami via Central America and the Panama Canal on a reverse of the prior voyage. A 10-night sailing on January 26, allows further exploration of the Western Caribbean including Mexico’s Costa Maya and Cozumel, and Roatan, Honduras plus Key West, Florida among other sun-kissed destinations.
The Eastern Caribbean beckons next giving luxury travelers the chance to relax on the paradise islands of Aruba, Curacao, and Bonaire on a 12-night voyage, sailing February 5th. Between February 17th and March 25th there are a further 2 Western Caribbean and 2 Eastern Caribbean sailings, all 7 to 10-nights and round-trip from Miami, after which Seven Seas Grandeur sails to New York.
On its 16-night journey to the Big Apple, the ship makes several stops at some beautiful Caribbean locales such as Castries, St. Lucia and San Juan, Puerto Rico, as well as the charming and historical Charleston, South Carolina.
On her second transatlantic sailing, this time for 14 nights and leaving New York on April 24, she discovers the Azores and enjoys extended highlights of the Iberian Peninsula such as Spain’s Valencia, Cartagena, and finally Barcelona.
From Barcelona, Seven Seas Grandeur’s maiden Mediterranean season begins with two 7-night sailings to and from Rome, Italy on April 24, and May 1, respectively. The cruises offer distinctly different experiences of the region. The former itinerary explores the French Riviera with an overnight stay in Monte Carlo, Monaco, while the latter offers guests a chance to immerse themselves in the island destinations of Sicily, Italy and Valetta, Malta.
A longer 12-night cruise on May 8 continues to explore the classic cruise ports of France and Italy’s West Coast before sailing around “the boot” and stopping at Montenegro and Croatia en route.
This heralds the ship turning its attention to the Eastern Mediterranean where, from May 20 until July 1, she sails two cruises of 10 nights and two cruises of 12 nights - the first departing from Venice and the remainder sailing from Athens, Greece or Istanbul, Turkey.
