SS Splendor

May

Pros: …YES!!!

Cons: None that I can recall

Recommended: Yes

This ship was top-flight! EVERYTHING that we needed or wanted was provided - sometimes even before we knew we needed it. I have been on different Cruise Lines through my years and this is # 1. My spouse forgot her meds and within days they were replaced ?? The foods and different Restaurants were Excellent !! I would highly recommend any of the Shore excursions 5 stars. This is top notch. But …stay away from the Boutiques. They’ll kill you with their deals??

Seven Seas Splendor

August

Pros: All inclusive pricing, large suites, excellent entertainment and service

Cons: Nothing really

Recommended: No

It is a pleasure to cruise on Regent Seven Seas Cruises. The dining is excellent, the service is excellent, and the entertainment has improved significantly. While on board we had the pleasure of seeing Belle Voci twice, female duo opera singers who competed in the finals of BGT. The production shows are are excellent as the talent is surprisingly good. The size of the Category F Suites are 400+ sq. ft. with a walk in closet, two sinks in the bathroom, and a separate tub and shower. Sette Mari is one of my favorite restaurants onboard. It is Mediterranean/Italian and all meals are prepared in full view. Veal chops are amazing. No nickel and diming. Can you imagine your laundry done each day coming back folded and wrapped in tissue or on hangers, no charge...complimentary. The staff is well trained and service oriented.

Over all our cruise with The Regent , SS Splendor, has meet our expectations. My cabin attendant, Rivvy was so awesome and his helper( I forgot her name.) The staff was all very nice and helpful . Leaving the cruise was a little unplanned but know it is your first journey there and understandable. Willie, the excursion ticket person was very patience and nice. Enjoyed his attitude. We did miss an excursion but did get refunded which I felt that it was very nice of The Regent, good customer service.

We loved the Splendor. Everything was beautiful! Sometimes we thought the service at dinner was a little long, but was still very good. And coffee was always served after we got our dessert. (Not a biggie….but you asked..haha).

Sailing in Elegance: A Review of Regent Splendor

January

Pros: Elegant ship and attractive suites, Variety of dining options, Entertainment exceeding expectations

Cons: Configuration issues in Category H, Veranda suites, Disappointing itinerary stops and excursions

Recommended: No

My husband and I embarked on a memorable 12-night segment of a 67-night Grand Voyage, Circle South America, on Regent Seven Seas Splendor. The ship sailed from Buenos Aires, Argentina and our journey concluded in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. With a capacity for 750 guests, this ship is truly elegant and stunning, featuring all-suite accommodations with balconies. Our stay in the Category H Veranda Suite on deck 6 was cozy, featuring a balcony with two deck chairs and a table. While we enjoyed our experience, we did notice some configuration aspects, such as the bed’s proximity to the sliding closet and the compact bathroom with a single sink and shower. It might be worth considering an upgrade to a more spacious Category F, Superior Veranda, or higher for those seeking additional space. The ship’s staff provided generally friendly and professional service, although we did observe some inconsistencies. Dining experiences were mostly positive, with standout moments at Compass Rose (the main dining room), Pacific Rim (a Pan-Asian specialty restaurant), and La Veranda (evening transformed into Sette Mari, an Italian restaurant). Prime 7’s lobster fell short of expectations, and Chartreuse, the French restaurant was enjoyable but occasionally too elaborate. La Veranda’s breakfast/lunch buffet felt somewhat limited compared to offerings on other luxury cruise lines. The standout dining experience was the Gala Sunday Brunch in Compass Rose. Regent Splendor offers a range of amenities, including Coffee Connection, a Pool Grill (open 11 am to 4 pm), Afternoon Tea, and 24-hour room service. The ship adheres to a dress code-Resort Casual during the day and Resort Elegant at night. The onboard Spa and fitness center aligns with luxury cruise ship standards, allowing guests to use the steam room, sauna, and Spa pool based on capacity controls. While Regent Splendor offers culinary cooking classes onboard, they appeared to be presold, limiting availability. Nonetheless, positive feedback was received from a couple attending multiple classes during the sailing. The entertainment on board exceeded expectations, featuring various performances, including an illusionist, local acts in Uruguay, a classical guitarist, and the traditional production company singers and dancers. Overall, our experience on Regent Splendor was positive, despite some disappointing itinerary stops that did not meet expectations, and most excursions exceeding their advertised durations. Included excursions showed inconsistencies, with some guides who were difficult to understand and poorly trained. Issues such as not providing complimentary water or adequate restroom facilities or breaks were noted. Addressing these concerns would undoubtedly enhance the seamless luxury travel experience that Regent Seven Seas Cruises aspires to deliver.

Regent review Splendor

April

Pros: Small ship and less passengers

Cons: Only one late show per evening. We felt rushed with the excursions. Of course, we could have stayed aboard the ship.

Recommended: Yes

Beautiful ship. Crew was outstanding. Food was plentiful with many different types. Evening entertainment was only OK. The dancers/singers were great, but the other acts were less than stellar. The use of the port tenders were very organized. We were disappointed that, due to weather, one of our ports of call had to be skipped. We would’ve liked to seen Port Vendres. We were disappointed in ?zmir, Turkey. I have no interest in seeing that again.

Cons: None

Recommended: Yes

I can’t say enough about this experience. World class ship, world class service. The attention to detail never wavered. I felt cared for and appreciated. Staff always has a smile on. Their face and greet you when they see you. Their training must be excellent. We especially loved our bartender, Alex, in the Splendor Lounge. We saw him nightly and he was friendly and made the best Cosmo I’ve ever had. Also special was Melvin in LeGrande restaurant. He went out of his way to get me the kind of coffee I liked. Kudos to the staff!
