The final phase of Regent Seven Seas Cruises $125 million fleet-wide refurbishment was recently completed, elevating the elegance of its fleet to the standard set by the all-balcony, all-suite Seven Seas Explorer, which entered service on July 20, 2016. Seven Seas Explorer is joined by all-balcony, all-suite sister-ships Seven Seas Voyager, Seven Seas Mariner, and all-suite, 90 percent-balcony Seven Seas Navigator. In early 2020, Regent will perfect luxury with the launch of Seven Seas Splendor.

These brands operate a combined 25 ships with approximately 50,400 lower berths visiting more than 510 destinations worldwide.

Onboard Seven Seas Explorer it's an outstanding place to get your heart pumping while enjoying unforgettable ocean vistas.

Serene Spa & Wellness

Welcome to the ultimate indulgence: a day at the serene Canyon Ranch spa. Located on Deck 5 aft, guests can choose from an array of experiences such as signature massages and therapeutic bodywork, aromatherapy, ayurvedic and seaweed treatments, as well as facials. Guests may also choose from an extraordinary selection of luxurious beauty treatments, including hair care, manicures, pedicures and more available in the salon.

Cuisine

Chartreuse

Attention to detail. You’ll notice it at the front of Chartreuse, where a beautifully crafted bar beckons while you wait. It’s in the art deco tile pattern on the floor and sparkling gold tile on the walls. It’s in the décor of a chic Parisian restaurant discovered during a stroll along the Seine. Savor ‘new’ flavors to Chartreuse like a tender veal rack of loin with caramelized endive, grape chutney and the earthy tones of a walnut veal jus sauce.

Coffee Connection

Enjoy complimentary coffee drinks prepared by our baristas, as well as delicious pastries, gourmet sandwiches and homemade cookies. Whether perusing international newspapers or simply taking in an always spectacular view, our café is the perfect place to relax, converse and enjoy coffee and snacks throughout the day.

Compass Rose

Our largest specialty restaurant at sea, the Compass Rose on Seven Seas Explorer® delights with a beautifully defined atmosphere that transitions from refreshing natural light during the day to a dazzling cobalt blue reflected by a glass installation overhead. Choose from a seemingly endless combination of dishes, prepared to taste, garnished with a sauce of choice and complemented with side dishes, as well as nightly specials.

La Veranda

Located on Deck 11 aft, guests take in stunning ocean views while enjoying elegant breakfast and lunch buffets in the chic indoor dining room or al fresco on the shaded, open-air deck. Breakfasts include traditional favorites, as well as a made-to-order omelet station, a variety of fresh fruits and pastries, along with daily specials, like fluffy Belgian waffles with fresh blueberry compote. For lunch guests indulge in an array of choices from a bountiful salad bar, gourmet sandwiches, hot carving stations and delicious desserts.

Pacific Rim

Maximize your sense of the exotic as you pass a large Tibetan Prayer wheel on your way into Pacific Rim, our dining masterpiece that celebrates the culinary traditions of Asia. Taking a seat beneath huge lanterns and a hand-painted mural covering the entire back wall, you'll receive a signature cocktail and the promise of an extraordinary culinary journey. Be sure to check out the ocean views through Pacific Rim’s lotus-shaped windows.


Pool Grill

The ultimate come-as-you-are spot for casual dining after you’ve been swimming or sunbathing. The Pool Grill serves up grilled-to-order burgers, grilled seafood, sandwiches, fresh salads and frozen treats like milkshakes and hand-dipped ice cream sprinkled with your favorite toppings. Come by before or after a shore excursion – there’s no need for more formal attire during our evening hours – or enjoy a snack between activities.

Prime 7

A true classic in every sense, Prime 7 of Seven Seas Explorer® is the epitome of luxury dining. Works by Picasso and Chagall adorn the restaurant's bar lobby and leather wing-back chairs and burnished woods abound. Enjoy a cocktail at the bar before savoring a succulent filet mignon or mouthwatering côte de boeuf at your personal banquette. For dessert, perhaps a slice of 14-layer Valhrona chocolate cake with pistachio sauce.

Sette Mari at La Veranda

Each evening, La Veranda transforms into Sette Mari at La Veranda, a casual, intimate dining experience. Choose from authentic Italian specialties inspired by family recipes that span generations, or opt for something with a modern twist like a spice-crusted tuna steak with braised endive, polenta and salmoriglio. Savor it all with a perfectly paired Tuscan wine. Sette Mari at La Veranda is open for dinner only.

Entertainment

The Casino

Get a taste of Monte Carlo excitement at our Casino directly across from the equally inspiring Explorer Lounge. Walk through glass doors into an elegant setting bustling with games of chance that include Blackjack, roulette, poker, and a full craps table, as well as slot machines. The Casino is open every day at sea when not restricted by territorial border limits.

Connoisseur Club

Maybe it’s the deep blue walls that give the Connoisseur Club such a gentile, old-fashioned feel. Or maybe it’s the collection of impossible comfortable leather armchairs. Whatever it is, this is a relaxing spot for you and new friends to enjoy a fine cigar and sip cognac (both are available for purchase) in classic gentleman's club environs. Smoking is permitted in the club.

Constellation Theater

A dazzling staircase mosaic creates a Gatsby-esque atmosphere as you enter our Constellation Theater, a space so grand it takes up two decks. Perfectly tiered for pleasing sightlines and furnished with plush seating, the main show lounge is an intimate venue without a bad seat in the house. Performances vary from full-scale musical revues to rousing singalongs, all backed by our incredible, five-piece Regent Signature Orchestra.

Explorer Lounge

With rich mahogany wood columns, heavy leather chairs and deep blue fabrics, the atmosphere here is conducive to intimate conversations and bonhomie. Relax to familiar tunes and special requests performed by our resident musicians from an intimate stage arched with a golden proscenium. A perfect spot to meet new friends for a pre- or post-dinner cocktail at the elegant, black marble bar.

Meridian Lounge

Situated along a lively hallway, Meridian Lounge is a natural place to gather with others for an afternoon or early evening cocktail. Elegantly appointed and comfortably furnished, it boasts an expansive bar and relaxed armchairs that beckon conversation. A popular spot to catch your breath after a dazzling Constellation Theater show, this lively spot invites you to extend your evening with virtuoso performances by resident musicians.

This chic yet comfortable lounge features an impressive bar, dazzling geometric ceiling, ample seating and floor-to-ceiling windows that create a magical atmosphere. Musicians perform throughout the day, creating an alluring vibe that sets just the right mood as you unwind with a pre-dinner cocktail or satisfying nightcap.


Amenities

Boutiques

Located on Deck 4 just outside the Constellation Theater, The Boutiques offer a wide range of items from upscale handbags to exclusive fragrances to fine jewelry in an intimate and unhurried setting.

Business Center

If you prefer to travel without a laptop, our staffed Business Center offers desktop computers that allow you to access your emails and browse the Internet. Printer access is available for a nominal fee. Seven Seas Explorer® provides WiFi access throughout the ship, allowing you to connect to the Internet with whatever device you've brought on board.

Reception & Concierge

Our Reception Desk is the place to turn to have your every wish, whim and want fulfilled any time of day or night. Our knowledgeable, personable staff will welcome your questions and work to ensure your Seven Seas Explorer® experience is everything you want it to be. The ship's Concierge may also be contacted at the Reception Desk.

Activities

Atrium

Often described as the crossroads of the ship, our Atrium is an inspiring testament to the grandeur of luxury ocean travel. Cascading stairwells make it a natural gathering place for guests, but convenience alone doesn’t begin to describe its magnetic appeal. On Seven Seas Explorer® a spectacular chandelier hovers like a glowing star, enhancing the natural light shining down from far above.

Bocce Court

The originators of bocce ball 7,000 years ago couldn't have imagined their simple game being played high atop a glorious ocean liner... but you’ll be able to do more than imagine while playing it onboard Seven Seas Explorer®. Bocce ball – also known as Italian lawn bowling – is played with a pallina and 8 larger balls, all of course provided.

Card Room

An inviting and tranquil oasis dedicated to the pure pleasure of playing games. Our beautifully decorated Card Room sits across from Observation Lounge, and it’s not unusual for guests to go from one fun space to the other. Gather your favorite teammates in the Card Room for a lively afternoon or evening of board games, a social game of Bridge or to participate in an ACBL Tournament on select voyages.

Cruise Sales

One sunny morning on the private balcony of your luxurious suite, hot coffee in hand, magnificent ocean stretching to the horizon, is probably more than enough to get you thinking about booking your next voyage with Regent Seven Seas Cruises®. Head to Cruise Sales for the information you need, and take note: Though you’ll work with a destination voyage itinerary expert while at sea, a travel agent remains involved in all bookings.

Culinary Arts Kitchen

No ordinary shipboard cooking class, our Culinary Arts Kitchen will make you believe you’ve stumbled into one of the world’s prestigious cooking schools. An impressive 18 individual cooking stations sit atop three long, curved rows with white quartzite countertops and stainless steel accents, a formidable array you’ll put to good use preparing a variety of exquisite dishes taught by trained culinary masters.

Destination Services

Whether you’re interested in a tour from our FREE Unlimited Shore Excursion menu or a customizable Regent Choice Shore Excursion, our staff at Destination Services is ready to help you make the most of your time in port cities. Head here for assistance with tailor-made pre-and post-cruise programs, from a simple stay in a luxurious hotel to a 3-night extension that includes private tours of coveted destinations.

General Manager

Accountability is a critical aspect of providing you with an unrivalled experience on Regent Seven Seas Cruises®. As a guest you'll always know where to find our General Manager, whose sole responsibility is making sure things are running as they should — and that includes providing you with superior customer service.

Golf Net

The glorious ocean vistas you’ll admire every day won’t necessarily have you thinking of golf course fairways, but if you find yourself wishing you could be practicing your fairway swing, head to our Golf Net. All the clubs and golf balls you need are available. Who knows? Maybe you’ll return home from your voyage with a few kinks worked out of your golf swing.

Gourmet Explorer Tours

Our optional Gourmet Explorer Tours, offered exclusively aboard Seven Seas Explorer, allows guests the unique opportunity to experience the culinary culture of the world's most delicious destinations. They revel in the chance to shop at local markets in the company of a knowledgeable local expert and their Chef Instructor from the Culinary Arts Kitchen, as well as tour the kitchens of renown chefs and dine at award-winning restaurants.

Infinity Pool

Soak in the refreshing Infinity-Edge Plunge Pool located just outside of Serene Spa and Wellness™. Make yourself comfortable on plush, partially covered lounge chairs that surround the pool on an inviting teak-deck terrace. Take in dramatic views from wherever you are — above water, that is.

Library

Well-stocked and exceedingly comfortable, you'll immediately feel at ease within the Library’s calm setting. Browse a vast collection of volumes, from destination-specific guide books to best-selling mysteries to classics of literature, on a variety of comfortable chairs. Conveniently located across from the Card Room, our library is a welcoming, low-key treasure you just may find hard to leave.

Paddle Tennis Court

One look at our Paddle Tennis Court and you’ll know it’s a place of serious competition. All the equipment you need is nearby, the court is completely screened and the surface is immaculate. Whether you find yourself in a tense match or something more leisurely, you and your fellow players will be enjoying fresh ocean air and fantastic views from high atop your ship.

Pool Bar

When you envision an activity you’re only likely to do while on vacation, sipping a frozen drink at a pool bar onboard a glorious cruise ship is probably near the top of the list. You can tick that box at our Pool Bar, where you and new friends can enjoy leisurely conversation over cocktails and frozen drinks in a delightfully relaxed atmosphere.

Pool Deck

When the call of a glistening pool with an unforgettable vista beckons, head to our Pool Deck. Outfitted in teak accents which make it one of the most elegant at sea, the Pool Deck features a lavish pool and two whirlpools. You’ll also find an amiable and dedicated crew standing by to provide refreshing beverages and lounge chairs with plush towels.

Putting Green

While the Golf Net is meant to help you improve your fairway swing, our Putting Greens are less about self-improvement than group fun as your ship travels from one destination to another. A popular pastime is gathering friends after an afternoon cocktail and heading to the top deck of Seven Seas Explorer® for a spirited competition as twilight approaches and a delicious dinner in one of our stellar restaurants looms.

The Summer Palace evokes a feeling of serenity as you wander through fairy-tale landscapes and manicured gardens. Then witness the efforts of nearly a million workers who walled in an empire by hand. As you climb the Great Wall toward one of its towers, the spirit of endurance and determination takes hold, a poignant reminder of the painstaking endeavors of 2,500 years ago.

Christiansted, St. Croix

Your visit to Christiansted is guaranteed to be a visit worth remembering for years to come. The architectural structures that this town acquires include amazing cobblestone walkways, old churches, and the towering Fort Christiansvaen.

Compared to the five forts that are still standing, Fort Christiansvaern is the best maintained fort. Considering this fort was built in the late 1700s it has weathered many pirates and privateer battles and slave uprising. The construction of this fort sits on a small courtyard and includes corner bastions and small dark dungeons. This fort was once used by the Danish army, conformed into a jail and accommodated religious services.

Another attraction of Christiansted would be the Lord God of Sabaoth Church that is situated right across the way from the main entrance of the Fort. The construction of this structure occurred early 1750's by the Danish West India and Guinea Company. In the year 1753, this church was declared sanctified and 40 years later the baroque tower and cupola was assembled. This structure was once St. Croix's first Lutheran Church, a military bakery, community hall, hospital and a school. Christiansted possesses plenty of attractions for its visitors as well as is natives, so we'll leave the other attractions for your visit.

Women in kimonos and Dior suits stroll side-by-side. Geishas play samisens while disc jockeys play the Top Forty. Japanese houses of wood and paper stand in the shadow of towering steel and mortar. Not far away, one of the world's most impressive sights soars 12,388 feet to its snow-clad peak: Mount Fuji, the majestic symbol of Japan.
