Regent facts & features

• Regent Seven Seas Cruises is famous for its all-inclusive luxury—we’re talking unlimited shore excursions, gourmet dining, premium beverages, gratuities, and Wi-Fi, all rolled into your fare.
• The line specializes in smaller ships compared to the mega-vessels docked in Port Miami, creating a more intimate experience with world-class service.
• Their flagship, the Seven Seas Explorer, has been dubbed “the most luxurious ship ever built.” And yes, it’s as jaw-dropping as it sounds.

Hidden gems

• Regent ships often feature private balconies on almost every suite—not always standard in the cruise industry.
• Culinary Arts Kitchen classes onboard let you cook like a pro (so you can return from vacation bragging about your knife skills).
• They partner with local guides in destinations worldwide, which means excursions feel more authentic than the typical cookie-cutter tours.

Weird quirks & stories

• Regent isn’t shy about luxury—on the Explorer, the Regent Suite has its own in-room spa retreat and costs around $11,000 per night. Yes, you read that right.
• Rumor has it, some guests book back-to-back itineraries just to avoid returning home. (Can’t say I blame them.)
• Regent was one of the first luxury lines to offer unlimited shore excursions, which some travelers jokingly call “a buffet for sightseeing.”

Things you might want to know before you sail

• Parking costs $35 per day: Port Miami garages fill quickly, so consider using a shuttle or rideshare.
• Drink packages: Good if you plan on having more than 3 cocktails a day, otherwise à la carte is cheaper.
• Wi-Fi: Regent uses SpaceX Starlink satellite internet to provide connectivity on its ships
• Service charge: Gratuties are included in the cruise fare and are not expected from guests.

Onboard highlights you shouldn’t miss

• Compass Rose: Regent’s signature restaurant, with an ever-changing menu.
• Observation Lounge: A perfect place for a martini while watching Miami fade into the horizon.
• Evening entertainment: Broadway-style shows with professional casts—not the karaoke-with-your-neighbor type.
• Serene Spa & Wellness: Where jet lag and sore muscles from your flight disappear instantly.

Best itineraries out of Miami

• Caribbean Treasures: Sun-soaked islands, turquoise water, and a pace as easy as a hammock nap.

FAQ about Regent Seven Seas

Q: What's Regent's reputation?
A: Regent has a top-tier reputation for ultra-luxury cruising, with truly all-inclusive fares that cover everything from gourmet dining to business-class flights and shore excursions. The service is polished, the ships are elegant, and the vibe is refined — but it caters heavily to an older, wealthier crowd, which can feel a bit too quiet or formal for some. While the price tag is steep, loyal guests argue you get what you pay for — though critics say you're also paying a premium for prestige and brand name.

Q: Are there places to eat at the Port?
A: Yes. La Carreta offers full-service dining and is known for having some of the cleanest restrooms at many terminals. You'll also find a Starbucks in Terminal A, complete with free Wi-Fi. Most terminals have Grab & Go Markets with sandwiches, salads, and other healthier options. The selection changes daily, but the caprese salad is a reliable favorite.

Q: Any advice for getting off the ship early?
A: Carry your own luggage and select the “Self Assist” or “Walk Off” option for priority disembarkation — most guests are through customs by 8:00 AM. You can also let the front desk know you have an early activity, and they’ll provide priority disembarkation.

Q: How do I arrange a private tour with drop-off at the airport?
A: It’s easy! Just give us a call at (305) 260-6855 or get a quote. We’ll pick you up at the Port, take you sightseeing, and drop you off at either Miami or Fort Lauderdale Airport in time for your flight.
