Regent Seven Seas Cruises Reveals a First Look of Its Newest Ship—See Photos

It’s a Travel + Leisure reader favorite cruise line, consistently ranking for its luxurious ships, incredible service, and top-notch entertainment and shore excursions.

In late 2026, Regent Seven Seas Cruises is set to raise the all-inclusive luxury bar even higher with the launch of Seven Seas Prestige, its seventh ship and the first of the all-new Prestige-class ships.

Currently in build at Italy’s Fincantieri shipyard in Ancona, Italy, Regent has revealed the first glimpse inside the ship, sharing images of two public spaces: Starlight Atrium and Galileo’s Bar.

Fans of Regent’s trademark lavish design won’t be disappointed, with touches such as handblown glass and ceramic pearls and light fixtures fashioned to resemble jewelry among the intricate interior details.

Yohandel Ruiz, Founding Partner at Studio DADO, the creative team behind both spaces, described Starlight Atrium as a place where “the grandeur of Renaissance architecture meets modern luxury.”

“Our goal was to get people to stop in their tracks, awe-struck by its sheer scale and magnificence,” Ruiz said in a statement shared with T+L.

Twin spiral staircases and a glass-enclosed ceiling are feature highlights in the two-story atrium, which impresses with its palette of brushed taupes, soft creams, and royal blues. Pleated leather panelling and embellished trims “recall an era of quality craftsmanship and style,” Regent said.

Accessible from Starlight Atrium, Galileo’s Bar is named to honor Galileo’s Lounge, the beloved lounge area on Seven Seas Navigator, a ship set to leave the Regent fleet in 2026. Limestone-clad walls, a contemporary canvas styled like an oil painting on the ceiling and a striking, striped floor create a glamorous setting for guests to mingle and sip Champagne.

Seven Seas Prestige is Regent’s first new ship class in a decade and will accommodate 822 passengers in one of the highest passenger-to-space ratios on the sea. The second ship in the class is expected to set sail in 2029.

“Hosting only 822 guests on a ship that could fit hundreds more means we will offer Heartfelt Hospitality in Unrivaled Space at Sea like never before,” Jason Montague, the chief luxury officer for Regent Seven Seas Cruises, said in the statement.

As Seven Seas Prestige approaches its completion date, Regent is promising more reveals to follow, including all-new accommodation categories, a reimagined Regent Suite, and dining experiences.
