A renaissance at sea

Luxury cruising reaches new heights as Regent Seven Seas unveils the first glimpses of its highly anticipated 822-guest Seven Seas Prestige, scheduled to grace the world’s oceans in late 2026.

The cruise line, long celebrated for its all-inclusive luxury experiences, has released renderings and a breathtaking video showcasing the ship’s Starlight Atrium and Galileo’s Bar – spaces that exemplify the vessel’s commitment to timeless elegance.

“This is the brand’s first new ship class in a decade, and the design team at Studio DADO has clearly pulled out all the stops. Hosting just 822 guests on a ship that could accommodate hundreds more means we’re creating an unprecedented level of personal space at sea.”

Beneath the stars, above the waves

The centerpiece Starlight Atrium features a glass-enclosed ceiling that bathes the space in natural light by day and offers stargazing by night. Twin spiral staircases create a dramatic focal point, while intimate alcoves with sculptural furniture and ocean views provide quiet retreats.

In hues of dusty rose, taupe, and cream, accompanied by embellished trims and fringed pillows, evokes the refined sensibility of a world-class hotel rather than a cruise ship.

Raising a glass to nautical heritage

Named as a nod to the beloved Seven Seas Navigator (which will soon depart the fleet), Galileo’s Bar serves as both a visual anchor and social hub.

Its ceiling displays a contemporary masterpiece styled like an oil painting, framed by intricate metal detailing, while the bar itself features classic fluted elements on a bold, striped floor.

The future of all-inclusive luxury

When it launches, the 77,000-ton vessel will introduce brand-new accommodation categories, including a reimagined version of Regent’s palatial Regent Suite, plus fresh dining concepts to be revealed in the coming months.

True to Regent’s all-inclusive philosophy, guests can expect unlimited shore excursions, gourmet cuisine across multiple venues, premium wines and spirits, Starlink WiFi, valet laundry service, and pre-paid gratuities. Those booking Concierge-level suites and above will also enjoy a complimentary pre-cruise hotel night.

Seven Seas Prestige is well on its way to joining Regent’s “World’s Most Luxurious Fleet”, which currently includes the Explorer, Grandeur, Mariner, Navigator, Splendor, and Voyager. For devoted cruisers seeking the pinnacle of luxury at sea, the countdown to 2026 has officially begun.
