Regent Seven Seas Cruises Announces Brand New Look

Regent Seven Seas Cruises Announces Brand New Look
The line's 700-guest all-suite, all-balcony luxury vessels, Seven Seas Voyager and Seven Seas Mariner, completed their respective dry-docks just in time to debut on their 2009 World Cruises.

The refurbishment program, which cost approximately $40 million - the largest investment on existing tonnage ever by RSSC - was overseen by the line's Vessel Operations team working in conjunction with renowned marine architectural firm of Yran and Storbraaten of Oslo, Norway. The resulting feel aboard each ship is fresh, elegant and luxurious, while retaining the warmth and charm for which RSSC is acclaimed.

Radiating a new sense of warmth and sophistication, the ships' public spaces are resplendent with elegant new furnishings, carpeting and accents. From the bold jewel tones of Signatures, to the elegant Chablis and Merlot palettes of Compass Rose, or the soothing colors of sand and sea in the Observation Lounge, every area exudes a new sense of style and elegance.

Highlights of the refurbishment on both ships include:

The creation of Prime 7, a fresh, contemporary interpretation of a traditional grill restaurant
The re-design of lounges and public rooms to create more spacious areas for relaxation
The creation of new lounge and dining areas around the Pool Grill
New carpeting, wallpaper, upholstery, light fixtures, and drapes in most public areas and guest suite accommodations
More casual dining options with the installation of a pizza oven and ice cream bar
The creation of an extended coffee and snack bar area on Seven Seas Voyager, similar to the popular Coffee Connection on Seven Seas Mariner

Reaction to the new look and feel of the ships has been universally positive from guests and travel agents alike. Members of RSSC's newly-formed Regent Seven Seas Council, comprised of the line's top-producing travel agents, visited Seven Seas Voyager in Los Angeles on Monday.

The second phase of the refurbishment program, a similar makeover for the third ship in the RSSC fleet, Seven Seas Navigator, is scheduled to take place in April 2010.
