With its inaugural season due to get underway this autumn, it won’t be long until guests can experience the latest edition to the world’s most luxurious fleet.
All-balcony suites
Among its many highlights are some of the largest and most elegant suites in world cruising – 373 of them in total – which range from the 28.5 sqm Veranda Suite right the way through to the new Regent Suite which, at a truly impressive 412.8 sqm and featuring a 113 sqm veranda with unobstructed 270-degree views, will be at the very pinnacle of ultra-luxury cruising. Of course, no matter which suite you choose, you’ll be treated to the same exceptional standards of comfort and design, including a furnished private balcony as standard.

Speciality dining
If you’re a Regent Seven Seas Cruises regular, you’ll be well versed in the line’s exceptional dining. And Seven Seas Grandeur is, of course, no different, with a full spread of restaurants, cafés and lounges located throughout the ship. Prime 7 is a highlight, where the likes of dry-age porterhouse steaks and salmon in tamarind-whiskey sauce are served in a stylish, contemporary interpretation of a classic American steakhouse. In contrast, Chartreuse will offer a sublime taste of elegant, Art Deco Paris, brought to life in a sleek, chic new design, while Compass Rose – the largest speciality restaurant in the fleet – returns with world-spanning menus, elegant atmosphere, and reimagined interiors – think cascading waterfall sculptures and a canopy of interwoven crystal. Elsewhere, you’ll find punchy Pan-Asian flavours at Pacific Rim, tuck into sumptuous breakfasts accompanied by sweeping ocean views at La Veranda and dine al fresco with a selection of casual light bites and tempting barbecues at the Pool Grill.

The Fabergé connection
Recently announced, Sarah Fabergé – the founding member of The Fabergé Heritage Council, and great-granddaughter of legendary jeweller Peter Carl Fabergé – will serve as Seven Seas Grandeur’s Godmother. As part of Regent’s ongoing partnership with the esteemed luxury jewellery brand, she’ll also be on hand to unveil the ship’s objet-d’art – a hand-crafted Fabergé egg known as Journey in Jewels, which will reside permanently on board.
Destinations
Seven Seas Grandeur’s inaugural season begins on 18 November 2023 with a sailing from Trieste to Barcelona, followed by a trans-Atlantic crossing to Miami, where she’ll be based for winter sailings to the Caribbean, central America and Panama Canal. Then, returning to Europe in April, she’ll sail the Mediterranean throughout summer before a further stint across the Atlantic to take in the spectacular Fall colours across New England and eastern Canada.
