Regent Seven Seas

The line I understand from the inside out, accounting for 60 to 75% of my business each of the last three years.

I have sailed the Navigator, the Mariner, the Splendor, and the Grandeur, and I have multiple reservations already confirmed on the brand new Prestige, launching in December 2026. Every one of those bookings was made and paid for the way my clients pay for theirs. Not a hosted trip. Not an industry rate.

I have been sailing with Regent since 2012, beginning with a cruise to celebrate our 15th wedding anniversary. From the moment we stepped on board we were wowed, by the service, by the food, by staff who went above and beyond at every single touchpoint. That first cruise set a standard, and it is the standard I still measure every other line against. It is also the line Bob and I keep coming back to, year after year, for our own travel.

Why does that matter to you? Because as a paying passenger, I hold the exact same standards for a cruise experience that you do. When you work with someone who actually understands that, you stop having to justify your choices or explain what you are looking for from scratch. The advice you get is shaped around who you actually are, not a generic recommendation built to fit anyone.

Regent's whole model is built around removing the arithmetic from your vacation. Specialty dining is included, not upsold. Shore excursions are included, not metered out one at a time. Premium beverages are included, so you are not doing math every time you order a glass of wine at dinner. For the traveller who wants to stop calculating and start relaxing, this is the line that gets closest to that feeling of true, worked-out-in-advance ease.

The suite categories matter more on Regent than on almost any other line I work with, and this is where I actually earn my keep. I know the difference between a veranda suite and a penthouse suite because I have slept in both. I know which ships have the better layout for a couple who wants two separate living spaces, and which itineraries make the upgrade worth every additional dollar. I will tell you honestly when a higher category is not worth it for the way you actually travel, because that honesty is worth more to you than a bigger commission is to me.

The moment a Regent booking is confirmed, I am already booking the specialty dining and the spa treatments and locking in shore excursions, even if that window opens at eight o'clock on a Friday night my time. The best times fill first, and on longer voyages this is the single detail that separates a good trip from a trip you talk about for years.

Ships I have personally sailed

Navigator, Mariner, Splendor, Grandeur — with confirmed reservations on the new Prestige, launching December 2026.

Best for

Travellers who want an all-inclusive experience without feeling like everything was negotiated. Couples and small groups planning longer voyages, including transatlantic crossings. Multi-generational families who do not want to sacrifice incredible food and service just because children or adult children and grandchildren are all traveling together.

Exclusive Partnership Benefits

Through my relationship with Regent, I sometimes have access to last-minute sailing rates that never make it online and are not available by calling Regent directly. I also have incentives available for clients who refer someone new to Regent, and for groups of ten suites or more. None of that is the reason to work with me, but it is one more thing already working in your favour once you do.

In 2027, Bob and I are sailing Regent again, this time to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary. There was no other cruise line we even considered for a milestone like that one.
