The World of Splendor
Regent’s 2027 World Cruise - The World of Splendor - will be a truly unforgettable, around-the-world voyage. Before boarding Seven Seas Splendor, guests will begin their worldly adventures with a one-night pre-cruise stay in a luxury hotel in vibrant Miami, Florida, and an exclusive pre-cruise gala. In addition to the 486 free shore excursions, a further three exclusive and unique shore-side events will dazzle guests in Panama City, Panama; Colombo, Sri Lanka; and Málaga, Spain.
Regent’s exclusive World Cruises are complete with a range of bespoke amenities including exclusive pre-cruise gala event and one-night hotel stay at a luxury hotel in Miami, exclusive shoreside experiences, US$350 shipboard credit per person*, and unlimited valet laundry - including dry cleaning and pressing.

The 2027 World Cruise will be the first of these incredible journeys to sail on one of Regent’s Explorer-Class ships. Seven Seas Splendor, sister ship to Seven Seas Explorer® and Seven Seas Grandeur®, holds no more than 746 guests - meaning that more luxury travellers will have the chance to experience a Regent World Cruise without sacrificing unrivalled space at sea. With one of the highest space-to-guest ratios in the industry, discerning adventurers are promised an intimate exploration of the globe while enjoying the most luxurious on-board amenities and experiences found in the cruise industry.

The beautifully appointed suites range from the 307 square-foot Veranda Suite to the lavish 4,443 square-foot Regent Suite.
Perched on the fourteenth deck on board Seven Seas Splendor, the Regent Suite features unobstructed 270-degree views over the ship’s bow from the 1,300 square-foot wraparound veranda and a glass-enclosed solarium - offering a ‘Captain’s view’ as the ship arrives in each port.

With 9 dining choices including five complimentary speciality restaurants and 24-hour in-suite dining, guests will have a vast array of options to enjoy Regent’s signature Epicurean Perfection. Seven Seas Splendor’s exquisite speciality restaurants include Compass Rose, the largest speciality restaurant at sea where guests can customise their own meal every single night of the cruise; Pacific Rim, a dramatic Pan-Asian restaurant with a mythical dragon greeting guests; Prime 7, an intimate and elegant steakhouse; Chartreuse, featuring classic French fare with a modern twist; and Sette Mari at La Veranda, serving guests authentic Italian specialities and featuring stunning, over-water alcove seating that juts out over the ocean for an even closer connection to the sea, surrounded on three sides by inspiring, magnificent views.
Seven Seas Splendor features the Culinary Arts Kitchen with 18 stations for hands-on gourmet cooking classes presented by master chef instructors, and Serene Spa & WellnessTM, a globally inspired spa brand created for Seven Seas Splendor® offering exclusive treatments that integrate techniques and ingredients from destinations around the world to soothe both the body and mind.
