Officially welcomed to the Regent Seven Seas Cruises’ fleet on 13Jul16 in Monaco, and christened by Her Serene Highness Princess Charlene of Monaco, Seven Seas Explorer is spaciously intimate, breathlessly elegant and perfectly staffed to offer Regent Seven Seas Cruises’ special brand of all-inclusive luxury.

The ship brings elegance and glamour to the world’s greatest destinations, offering exquisite dining options that rival those of the finest restaurants ashore and all-suite, all-balcony accommodations boasting the largest balconies at sea. Regent Seven Sea Cruises® offers an in-suite experience like no other at sea. Every suite has spacious closets, high-end finishes, relaxing Elite Slumber™ beds and private balconies. Sizes range from 307 to 4,443 square feet.

Seven Seas Explorer® is something of a snowbird, often spending the summer in cooler Northern European destinations like Russia and Norway and winters in warmer climates like the Tropics and Asia. The ship also cruises the picturesque Mediterranean coastlines of Spain, France and Italy.

	Culinary Arts Kitchen No ordinary shipboard cooking class, Regent’s Culinary Arts Kitchen will make you believe you’ve stumbled into one of the world’s prestigious cooking schools.

The 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.

Conveniently located across from the Card Room, our library is a welcoming, low-key treasure you just may find hard to leave.
	Pool Deck When the call of a glistening pool with an unforgettable vista beckons, head to the Pool Deck.

You’ll also find an amiable and dedicated crew standing by to provide refreshing beverages and lounge chairs with plush towels.

Seven Seas Explorer Entertainment

	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.
	Casino Get a taste of Monte Carlo excitement at the 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 the 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 the 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.
	Observation Lounge Walk through a black and gold-lit tunnel and be instantly captivated. 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.

Seven Seas Explorer Cuisine

	Pacific Rim Maximize your sense of the exotic as you pass a large Tibetan Prayer wheel on your way into Pacific Rim, the 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.
	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.
	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.
	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.
	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.
	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, the café is the perfect place to relax, converse and enjoy coffee and snacks throughout the day.
	Compass Rose Regent’s 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.
	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 the evening hours – or enjoy a snack between activities.
	Room Service Twenty-four hours a day, guests enjoy everything from a Continental breakfast in the privacy of their spacious balcony to a gourmet dinner served course-by-course, delivered to their suite. The in-suite menu includes a variety of appetizers, entrees, beverages and desserts. During dinner time, the menu expands to include entrée selections from Compass Rose, the largest specialty restaurant at sea.
