Regent Seven Seas Cruises Announces $125 Million Fleet-Wide Renovation
MIAMI, Fla. (2016年1月20日) – The title of “world’s most luxurious cruise ship” may need to be updated to “ships” as Regent Seven Seas Cruises announced today plans for an extensive, $125 million fleet-wide refurbishment program. Beginning with Seven Seas Navigator this spring, the public spaces and suites to be refurbished will feature the same elegant style and indisputable attention to detail famously featured on Seven Seas Explorer, providing guests with a consistent look-and-feel, no matter which Regent Seven Seas Cruises ship they choose to sail.
The two-year $125 million investment includes significant renovations of most public spaces along with a complete redesign of several categories of suites. Seven Seas Navigator, the line’s most intimate ship carrying just 490-guests, will be the first to receive this luxurious upgrade, followed by Seven Seas Voyager in late 2016 and Seven Seas Mariner in the spring of 2017.
Seven Seas Navigator will emerge essentially a brand new ship following the upcoming dry dock, with all suite categories, all lounges, the library, casino, boutiques, reception area, and signature restaurants Compass Rose and La Veranda having recently been completely renovated.
“Seven Seas Navigator is one of our most beloved ships, so it’s fitting that she is the first to undergo this extraordinary refurbishment,” said Jason Montague, president and chief operating officer for Regent Seven Seas Cruises. “These renovations will bring a new level of elegance to the Regent Seven Seas Cruises fleet, strengthening our position as the undisputed leader in luxury cruising, operating the most luxurious ships at sea.”
The refurbishments on Seven Seas Navigator comprise the first phase of the $125 million renovation project. The ship’s renovations will commence when it enters dry dock in Marseille, France on 3月31日. The project will be completed by 4月13日, when the ship embarks on the 10-night Flawless French Riviera voyage from Barcelona to Rome, with calls across Spain, France, Monaco and Italy.
Some highlights of the upcoming Seven Seas Navigator refurbishment include:
- ナビゲーター スイート: 広々としたナビゲーター スイートがさわやかでエレガントなスタイルでデザインが一新されます。ベッドルームには、新たにカスタムメイドされたElite Slumberベッド、贅沢な100%コットンサテンの寝具が用いられます。ベッドルームにもリビングルームにも、白大理石のトップにエボニーブラックの木製化粧テーブルが部屋の長さいっぱいに設えられ、濃いグリーンとイエローがアクセントになった家具、カーテン、新しいカーペットと美しく調和しています。
- Penthouse, Concierge and Deluxe Suites: 船上のスイートの最大のコレクションがラグジュアリーに新装されます。コンテンポラリーなデザインがスイートの広さを感じさせます。ベッドルームには、素晴らしいパッド入りレザー製ヘッドボードに支えられたElite Slumberベッド、ラウンジエリアには上質なソファとスタイリッシュなアクセントテーブル、新しいアート作品が飾られています。
- Reception Area: Guests’ first exposure to the renovations will take place in the completely-redesigned reception area, where contemporary and classical design elements seamlessly meet. コンパスのようなデザインで埋め尽くした大理石のインレイのフロアにメタルインレイをあしらったポリッシュストーンの壁がダークウッドのレセプションデスクへと続きます。レセプションエリアを照らす、アラバスターの楕円形の天井に埋め込まれたジプサムダイヤモンドカットの照明がスタイリッシュでエレガントな雰囲気です。
- コンパス ローズ: The ship’s flagship restaurant will be grander and more resplendent than ever before. 広々とした384席のダイニングルーム全体に、さりげない幾何学模様が使われ、シルバーリーフ、ピューター、アンティークブロンズがあしらわれています。ダイニングルームの壁の一面はシルバーリーフで美しく飾られ、レストランの両側の大きな窓からは、すばらしい海の景色が望めます。天井には豪華なクリスタルのシャンデリアと埋め込み式の照明がドラマチックな効果を上げています。居心地の良いテーブルを囲むのは、セレストブルーのファブリックをあしらった、おしゃれなレザーチェアーです。
- ラ ベランダ: さりげなくシックなラ ベランダは、レストランを囲む床から天井までの窓から、ふんだんに差し込む自然光がアクセントになったフレッシュで解放感のあるデザインとなります。屋内および屋外で素晴らしいオーシャンビューに囲まれて、カジュアルなお食事をお楽しみいただけます。贅沢なビュッフェを朝食とランチにご用意します。このレストランは夜になると、エレガントな一流レストラン、セッテ マーリ ラ ベランダへと生まれ変わり、ディナーにご利用いただけます。
- Galileo Lounge: その名の示す通り、デッキ11のガリレオ ラウンジは天空を感じさせる空間です。ソーラーシステムを思わせる抽象的なデザインで縁どられた強化ガラスのダブルドアの入り口には太陽の形の装飾ハンドルがあしらわれています。That theme extends inside the 132-seat cocktail lounge, where a night-black oval-shaped ceiling twinkling with fiber-optic “stars” overlooks the inlaid wooden dance floor. Guests can be immersed in the action, or retreat to high-backed wing chairs that line the room’s windows.
- Navigator Lounge / Coffee Connection: 中央通路に続く、この居心地の良いデッキ6の施設には、昼間は海を見下ろす窓から自然光が差し込みます。クリーム色のチェアのファブリックとカーテン、打ち込まれた銅がアクセントになった白大理石のテーブルトップなどの新しい家具とデザインは、広々とした解放感を感じさせます。夜になると、ナビゲーター ラウンジは、スタインウェイのピアノをセンターピースにした小さなナイトクラブになります。胴のトップとダークウッドのベースでレザーを巻き付けた柱がエレガントな雰囲気です。
- ライブラリー: 明るく、居心地のよい図書館は快適で魅力的です。装飾暖炉から、艶のある大理石の床に置かれたクリーム色のソファまで、お屋敷の中にある書斎を思わせる部屋になっています。Ringing the room are dark wood book shelves encased in glass, while a glistening, copper-adorned chandelier serves as the room’s glistening centerpiece. It’s the ideal spot for reading and quiet reflection.
Following the dry dock, Seven Seas Navigator will spend the summer traversing the Mediterranean and late fall in South Africa. In 2017, Seven Seas Navigator will offer Navigate the World, Regent Seven Seas Cruises’ first world cruise in six years. Beginning and ending in Miami, the cruise will circumnavigate the globe in 128 nights, calling on six continents, 31 countries, 62 distinct ports and exploring 29 UNESCO World Heritage sites.
