The Benefits of Booking a Regent Suite

Every accommodation on Regent is technically a suite, with a private balcony. But the step from a Concierge or Penthouse suite into one of the top-tier suites — Seven Seas, Grand, Master, and the legendary Regent Suite — changes the cruise. Here is what actually comes with the upgrade.
The perks that genuinely change your day
- In-suite spa treatments. Top suites include a daily allotment of in-suite Canyon Ranch services — massages, facials, and similar — delivered by a therapist who comes to you.
- Private car and driver in every port. A chauffeured car with a personal guide is included for a set number of hours in each port. No tour bus, no schedule but yours.
- Unlimited specialty dining. Standard suites are limited to one reservation per specialty restaurant up front; top-tier suites can book any specialty restaurant on any night, as often as they like.
- Priority everything. First access to excursions, dining, spa appointments, and embarkation — usually opening a full tier earlier than the rest of the ship.
- Streaming Wi-Fi included in the suite category, no upgrade fee.
- Personal butler service, in-suite course-by-course dining from any restaurant onboard, and complimentary pressing throughout the sailing.
When the upgrade is worth it
The Regent Suite is for guests who value space, privacy, and personalized service.
The Regent Suite, briefly
The Regent Suite on the Explorer-class ships (Explorer, Splendor, Grandeur) is the headline act — over 4,400 square feet, a private spa with sauna and steam, a $250,000 Steinway, and a butler-staffed wraparound veranda. It also has its own set of unique perks, including a complimentary one-night pre-cruise hotel stay and a guaranteed seat on any excursion.
