Take an Exclusive First Look Inside the Largest All-Inclusive, Ultra-Luxury Cruise Suite in History
Ahoy there, sailors: Luxury cruise brand Regent Seven Seas is making waves within the hospitality industry with the first look at its Skyview Regent Suite, the largest all-inclusive, ultra-luxury cruise suite in history. Key points to know: Measuring 8,794 square feet across two levels, the Skyview Regent Suite aboard the Seven Seas Prestige is the largest all-inclusive, ultra-luxury cruise suite in history. The suite includes 2 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, its own gym and sauna, and 3,703 square feet of outdoor space via its wraparound balcony. Guests can experience the suite, which costs $25,000/ night, when the SS Prestige launches in late 2026. The suite is the signature luxury suite aboard the Seven Seas Prestige, the newest ship in Regent's fleet set to debut in late 2026 and poised to redefine luxury cruise travel in the years to come. And with 8,794 square feet spread over two levels, the suite appears designed to compete directly with the once-unshakable ownership of extreme luxury accommodations by top tier hotel brands just as several are taking to the seas by launching their own ships. Regent unveiled renderings of the modern Italian-inspired suite—designed by Miami-based Studio DADO—along with additional interiors, such as the Prestige's soaring and super glamorous atrium, June 11, 2025. "It's very difficult to make something simple and yet luxurious," Studio DADO's Pedro Andres Rodriguez told us. Honing the design was "an exercise in reduction." The Skyview Regent Suite is one of 4 new suite classes, and 12 total, offered on the Seven Seas Prestige. Notable design features of the $25,000/night suite include two bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, an in-suite gym and sauna, a graciously-sized walk-in closet, and a formal dining room with a glass-enclosed bar. But perhaps the most luxurious feature of all is the suite's outdoor space: a whopping 3,703-square-foot wraparound balcony. "We wanted to encourage people to go outside," Rodriguez said. "It's a fun project when you get to design almost without limits." The luxury of space is becoming increasingly coveted by luxury cruise travelers, and Regent is answering the call with the design of the Seven Seas Prestige beyond the private elevator, dramatic skylights, floating stone staircase, and panoramic views featured inside the Skyview Regent Suite. Clocking in at 77,000 tons with a max capacity of 822 guests and 630 crew members, the ship offers one of the highest space-to-guest and crew-to-guest ratios (1:1.31) in the industry. But for guests of the Skyview Regent Suite, the luxury experience isn't limited to square footage alone. Once checked in, suite guests will have access to enhancements throughout their voyage that include: a personal butler; daily spa and wellness treatments; a private car with a guide in every port; personalized stationary; and unlimited laundry. The suite also comes with top-tier Champagne, cognac, caviar service, daily canapés, Flou beds (handcrafted in Italy, with a cost of about $60,000 per bed) and luxury amenities like a curated pillow and fragrance menu. Prospective guests will have to wait until December 2026 for the inaugural sailings of the Seven Seas Prestige, which will include 13 voyages across Europe and the Caribbean Sea, with two transatlantic crossings and sailings of 10-15 nights in length. Reservations for the maiden season open June 25, 2025, here. You Might Also Like Spectacular Gifts for the Most Stylish Women in Your Life 16 Gorgeous Indoor Plants for Homes of All Sizes

Regent Seven Seas Cruises Just Unveiled the Largest All-Inclusive, Luxury Cruise Ship Suite in History—Starting at $25,000 Per Night
There are luxury cruise ships, and then there's the 822-passenger Seven Seas Prestige —the most recent addition to Regent Seven Seas' fleet. Last month, Travel + Leisure got an inside look at the new ship and its Renaissance-inspired interiors, but today, the cruise line unveiled one of the most exciting features of the vessel: the Skyview Regent Suite. Billed as the 'largest all-inclusive, ultra-luxury cruise ship suite in history,' the 8,794-square-foot, two-level suite is a far cry from the small, slightly cramped rooms most people associate with this type of travel. The palatial accommodations fit up to six guests, and anyone willing to pay the staggering $25,000 per night rate will get to take advantage of all of the perks that come with the booking—including a personal butler, daily spa treatments, private fitness sessions, and access to a private car and driver at each port. And while the ship will dock at some of the most incredible places around the world—the maiden voyage will sail from Barcelona on Dec. 13, 2026, calling on Málaga, Spain; Madeira, Portugal; and Tortola in the British Virgin Islands before arriving in Miami—there's hardly a reason to leave the suite. Along with 3,703 square feet of wraparound balcony space, there's a personal gym, massage room, formal dining area, and all the panoramic ocean views you could ever need. On the main level, you'll enter via the grand foyer and transition into the reception area (complete with a floating natural stone staircase and an in-suite elevator) before discovering the dining area with a library-style seating nook, bar, living room, and secondary full guest suite. Upon ascending to the upper level, you'll enter the main suite—an ultra-luxe space with a sitting area, ocean-facing bed, and spacious walk-in closet. The real highlight of the bedroom, though, just might be its spa-inspired bathroom, designed with a floating tub, sauna, walk-in shower, and twin vanities. 'In the Skyview Regent Suite , we aimed to capture the essence of modern Italian design, combining clean, elegant lines with exquisite craftsmanship to create a truly unforgettable experience,' Elias Sol, a senior associate at Studio DADO, said in a press release shared with T+L. The design elements are complemented by a range of thoughtful, high-end amenities—from a curated pillow and linen menu and personalized stationery to in-suite caviar service and a welcome bottle of Dom Pérignon Champagne and Remy Martin Louis XIII Cognac. Even if you don't snag the ship's highly coveted suite, there's still a chance to experience the other privileges and activities the Seven Seas Prestige provides its passengers. All guests will enjoy unlimited shore excursions, 11 different dining experiences, wines and spirits, high-speed Wi-Fi, various entertainment, laundry, and pre-paid gratuities. 'As Seven Seas Prestige sets sail on her inaugural season in December 2026, visiting the Caribbean and Europe's most iconic destinations, the ship's 12 suite categories, including the Skyview Regent Suite, will offer our discerning guests a once-in-a-lifetime way to experience the world—with all the comfort, elegance, and heartfelt hospitality that defines Regent,' Jason Montague, chief luxury officer for Regent Seven Seas Cruises, shared in the press release.

New ‘Seven Seas Prestige' Raises The Bar On Ultra-Luxury Cruising
Rendering of twin staircase Atrium on Seven Seas Prestige Provided by Regent Seven Seas Cruises Regent Seven Seas Cruises (RSSC) offered a first look at its newest ship, Seven Seas Prestige. Set to launch in late 2026, the vessel is expected to make waves as Regent's first new ship class in ten years. A second Prestige Class ship is planned to set sail in 2029. RSSC collaborated with Italian shipbuilder Fincantieri and design Studio DADO to construct and design the new ultra-luxury ship, Seven Seas Prestige. The collaboration builds upon successful past partnerships. Studio DADO, a Miami-based firm, was responsible for the spectacular interior architecture of Seven Seas Grandeur (launched in 2023, the last in Regent's Explorer Class). Grandeur garnered a host of awards for the excellence of its design, craftsmanship, and overall cruise experience. 'From stem to stern, this ship is striking, with statement pieces that will literally make you gasp…,' wrote Cruise Critic Editor-in-Chief Colleen McDaniel in her expert review of Seven Seas Grandeur. Regent Explorer Class ships have attracted a loyal following of discerning travelers who resonate with its branding as the 'most luxurious ship in the world.' That's a tough act to follow. Regent released renderings and a video of two lavish public spaces on board Seven Seas Prestige, the Starlight Atrium and Galileo's Bar. The line notes that inspiration for the design and decor of these spaces reflects a blend of old-world elegance and modern sophistication. Another view of the Starlight Atrium on Seven Seas Navigator Provided by Regent Seven Seas Cruises Influenced by classical and Renaissance architecture, the two-story Starlight Atrium features twin spiral staircases that begin on Deck 4 and combine on Deck 5. 'Our goal was to get people to stop in their tracks, awe-struck by its sheer scale and magnificence,' said Yohandel Ruiz, founding partner of Studio DADO, in a Regent press release announcing the reveal. Sculptural furniture and the line's signature museum-quality art on Deck 5 encourage guests to linger there and soak in the ocean views. The soothing color palette of dusty rose, taupe and cream is conducive to relaxation. Galileo's Bar on Seven Seas Prestige Provided by Regent Seven Seas Cruises From a seat at Galileo's Bar, guests can see the opulent spiral staircases and a ceiling styled like an oil painting, framed by metal detailing. The walls are clad in a limestone texture with jewel-like sconces. In addition, Regent will be unveiling new accommodation categories, new dining experiences, a reimagined Regent Suite and other innovations on Seven Seas Prestige. Seven Seas Prestige can accommodate up to 822 guests, which is considered at the low end of the small-to-mid ships category in size. However, the new ship promises the highest passenger-to-space ratio in the cruise industry. Regent is well-known for its inclusive pricing, which includes flights and transfers, gourmet dining in specialty restaurants, wine and spirits, entertainment, unlimited internet, valet laundry, gratuities, and one-night pre-cruise hotel package for guests staying in Concierge-level suites and higher.

Galileo's Bar and Starlight Atrium: A peek at Regent's new Prestige class
Regent Seven Seas Cruises has provided a glimpse the Seven Seas Prestige, a ship expected to arrive in late 2026. It will be the first ship in a new class for Regent. The luxury line provided video and photo renderings of the Starlight Atrium and nearby Galileo's Bar. The Starlight Atrium will connect decks four and five with twin spiral staircases and feature seating beneath a towering, glass-enclosed ceiling. The staircases combine on deck 5, and then rise to deck 11. Another seating area on deck five of the atrium will offer ocean views. Featuring alcoves with sculptural furniture and curated art, the space was designed with a "neutral palette of dusty rose, taupe and cream. With embellished trims and fringed pillows, the alcoves hearken back to old-world detailing," Regent said. Regent said the Starlight Atrium's designer, Studio DADO, drew on "inspiration ranging from classical and Renaissance architecture." Studio DADO also was the interior architect for Regent's Explorer-class ships. Photo Credit: Regent Seven Seas Cruises "The Starlight Atrium is where the grandeur of Renaissance architecture meets modern luxury, creating a space that feels both timeless and contemporary," said Yohandel Ruiz, Studio DADO's founding partner. "Our goal was to get people to stop in their tracks, awe-struck by its sheer scale and magnificence." The atrium will connect with Galileo's Bar, the Casino, Prestige Lounge, Meridian Lounge, Coffee Connection, concierge desk and reception area. The reception area on deck 5 will feature pleated leather panels and a light fixture crafted from handblown glass and ceramic pearls. Galileo's Bar will have a canvas ceiling reminiscent of an oil painting, Regent said. The walls, clad in a limestone texture, will be adorned with sconces designed to resemble jewelry. Photo Credit: Regent Seven Seas Cruises The bar will be strategically placed to serve guests in the casino and the Prestige Lounge. Regent said Galileo name is a nod to the Seven Seas Navigator, a ship that will soon depart the line's fleet. The 822-passenger Seven Seas Prestige will be the line's first new ship since the Seven Seas Grandeur debuted in late 2023. The Grandeur was the third Explorer-class ship, following the Seven Seas Explorer (2016) and Seven Seas Splendor (2020).
