Regent Seven Seas Cruises Unveils Stunning Preview of Seven Seas Prestige with Exquisite Starlight Atrium and Galileo’s Bar, Ushering in a New Era of Ultra-Luxury Cruising

Published on May 8, 2025

Regent Seven Seas Cruises®, the world’s premier ultra-luxury cruise line, has revealed stunning renderings and an extraordinary “fly-through” video showcasing select public spaces aboard the upcoming Seven Seas Prestige™. These captivating visuals highlight the Starlight Atrium and Galileo’s Bar, offering a glimpse into the unparalleled elegance and sophistication that will define the Seven Seas Prestige, which is set to debut in late 2026. This marks the beginning of a new era for all-inclusive ultra-luxury cruising.

Inspired by the timeless beauty of classical and Renaissance architecture, the Starlight Atrium and Galileo’s Bar were designed by Studio DADO, renowned for their exceptional work on Regent’s Explorer-Class ships. With the Seven Seas Prestige, the DADO team has captured the essence of Regent’s signature all-inclusive luxury experience, building upon the brand’s rich legacy to create spaces that will inspire awe and delight for every guest.

“With Seven Seas Prestige being Regent’s first new ship class in 10 years, we are delighted to share these first glimpses of this incredible vessel,” said Jason Montague, Chief Luxury Officer for Regent Seven Seas Cruises. “Hosting only 822 guests on a ship that could fit hundreds more means we will offer Heartfelt Hospitality in Unrivaled Space at Sea like never before. I truly cannot wait for this magnificent ship to join The World’s Most Luxurious Fleet and the new legacy of all-inclusive, ultra luxury cruising that begins with it.”

These visuals offer a tantalizing preview of what’s to come, with future announcements promising entirely new accommodation categories—including an innovative redesign of the iconic Regent Suite—as well as exclusive dining experiences.

Starlight Atrium
A stunning fusion of old-world charm and contemporary refinement, the Starlight Atrium evokes an era of master craftsmanship and style, bathed in natural light from a glass-domed ceiling that lets both daylight and starlight pour into the space.

“The Starlight Atrium is where the grandeur of Renaissance architecture meets modern luxury, creating a space that feels both timeless and contemporary,” said Yohandel Ruiz, Founding Partner, Studio DADO. “Our goal was to get people to stop in their tracks, awe-struck by its sheer scale and magnificence.”

More than just a tranquil spot for reflection or a glass of Champagne, the Starlight Atrium connects several essential guest services across decks 4 and 5, such as Galileo’s Bar, the Casino, the Prestige Lounge, Meridian Lounge, Coffee Connection, concierge desk, and reception area.

The two-story atrium features twin spiral staircases that begin on deck 4 and converge on deck 5, leading guests gracefully up to deck 11. On deck 5, private alcoves with sculptural furniture and curated artwork offer breathtaking ocean views, making it an ideal space to witness a sunrise or sunset. Designed with a serene color palette of dusty rose, taupe, and cream, enhanced with elegant trims and fringed pillows, the alcoves exude old-world opulence.

The reception area on deck 5 is equally refined, featuring pleated leather panels and a stunning light fixture crafted from handblown glass and ceramic pearls. The walls, adorned with paneling and framed artwork, merge traditional and modern design elements, leading guests effortlessly toward Galileo’s Bar.

Galileo’s Bar
Named in tribute to the beloved Seven Seas Navigator®, soon to be retired from the fleet, Galileo’s Bar is strategically positioned to serve both the Prestige Lounge and adjacent casino. Its ceiling, an artwork resembling an oil painting, is framed by intricately detailed fretted metalwork, setting the stage for a sophisticated and inviting ambiance.

The bar’s base is defined by elegant fluted elements, while bold, striped flooring creates a striking visual focal point. From Galileo’s Bar, guests can enjoy complimentary premium beverages, a hallmark of every Regent sailing. The walls are covered in limestone textures and adorned with sconces that resemble jewelry, adding an element of glamour to the space.

As guests gaze upward, they will be treated to the sweeping views of the spiral staircases that wind through the Starlight Atrium, adding to the sense of grandeur and luxury that permeates the Seven Seas Prestige.

Seven Seas Prestige – A New Legacy Begins
Set to launch in 2026, the Seven Seas Prestige follows the incredible success of Regent’s Explorer-Class vessels, also built by Fincantieri, and will be the cruise line’s first new ship class in a decade.

Weighing in at 77,000 tons and accommodating just 822 guests, the Seven Seas Prestige boasts one of the highest passenger-to-space ratios in the industry, ensuring unparalleled comfort and luxury for every traveler. The ship will offer more Unrivaled Space at Sea® than ever before, with elegantly designed suites and public spaces, including luxurious restaurants, bars, lounges, and lounges. New accommodation categories, such as a redesigned Regent Suite, and innovative dining options will further enhance the cruising experience.
