A glistening pool ringed by teak decking with plush oversized lounge chairs and chic circular sun beds forms the centrepiece of a new outdoor oasis on the most luxurious ship ever built, Seven Seas Explorer. The pool and sports decks of the all-suite, Seven Seas Explorer will exhibit the same extraordinary level of detail found in the ship’s opulent suites, gourmet restaurants and elegant lounges, and feature a variety of relaxation and outdoor recreation options for guests.
“The pool and sports decks will become a must-experience indulgence for guests sailing on Seven Seas Explorer,” said Jason Montague, president and chief operating officer for Regent Seven Seas Cruises. “Tillberg Design created a beautiful outdoor haven where guests can enjoy an assortment of recreational activities, relax while taking in breathtaking panoramic vistas, or delight in gourmet al fresco dining, all while completely ensconced in luxury befitting the world’s most luxurious ship.”
Luxurious Pool Deck Provides Intimate Retreat
Drawing inspiration from high-end pool retreats at exclusive boutique hotels, with a fusion of Southeast Asian design elements and Caribbean accents, the Deck 11 oasis on Seven Seas Explorer provides an intimate setting for relaxing, swimming and enjoying the ever changing vistas. With rich teak, natural stone and luxurious marble, the geometrical design of the ship’s centrepiece pool evokes a welcoming, modern feel.
The pool provides the perfect respite for guests seeking a refreshing swim and offers an expansive 3-inch deep shallow section for guests looking to cool off by dipping their toes in the water poolside. Paying homage to the ocean, sea-inspired ceramic tiles line the pool. At the end nearest the Pool Grill, shaded under contemporary circular overhangs, are two hot tubs perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring.
Sheer curtains impart a level of intimacy around the pool, creating secluded, private escapes where guests can relax. Stylish double loungers, some perched on raised platforms, enhance the elegant design, with a centre stage that creates the perfect venue for special poolside musical performances.
Adjacent to the pool area, guests can enjoy al fresco covered dining or grab a bite to go at the Pool Grill which serves breakfast, lunch, snacks, sweets and refreshing drinks.
In the evening, an array of lighting effects help set the mood for any occasion, whether it’s bringing the deck alive by infusing light on the glowing azure pool for a colourful celebration or using backlit canvases to produce a more serene, romantic evening retreat.
Sports and Sun-Deck Offer Recreation at Sea
Deck 12 combines a dedicated sports area with a sun-deck for those wishing to enjoy more active pursuits or soak in the sun with spectacular views over the horizon. The sports area features a deck shuffleboard, putting greens, golf nets, bocce court, paddle tennis and jogging track. The sun-deck has inviting circular loungers where guests can feel the ocean breezes and unwind.
With a one-of-a-kind 3,875-square-foot suite, extravagantly designed lounges and showplaces, and lavish gourmet restaurants, Regent Seven Seas Cruises is setting a new standard for luxury vacations with the launch of Seven Seas Explorer.
