See inside a brand-new ultra-luxury cruise ship. Travelers are surrounded by $6 million in art and the caviar and champagne are included.

Norwegian's well-known eponymous cruise line caters to a mass-market audience. Oceania Cruises is more upscale, while the highest-end Regent Seven Seas Cruises has fares only wealthy travelers could front.

The new vessel joined Regent's six-ship fleet one month prior. The floating resort cost about €475 million, or about $517.9 million, a Regent Seven Seas Cruises spokesperson told Business Insider.

Regent specializes in smaller vessels with lower guest capacities — 746 on the Grandeur, which doesn't include the additional 548 crew.

But on the Grandeur, this schedule comes with a splash of luxury: The buffet could have crab legs and raw oysters, poolside lounging could include unlimited cocktails, and dinner will most definitely have caviar. And lots of it.

In 2024, the cheapest itinerary starts at $4,115 per person for a seven-night December roundtrip sailing from Miami, Florida to Mexico, Belize, and Honduras.

The Regent Suite on this itinerary — which will sail to France, Monaco, Italy, and other Spanish cities — now has a waitlist, according to its booking page.

But if it's not evident yet, the 10-deck Grandeur isn't like most mass-market ships.

To compare, the world's largest cruise ship, Royal Caribbean's Icon of the Seas sits at 1,198 feet long and 250,800 gross tons.

These cabins range from 307 to 4,443 square feet.

There were features like a walk-in closet, spacious living "room," and marble-lined bathroom with a bathtub and L'Occitane en Provence products.

Travelers staying in the highest-end accommodation have two bedrooms, three walk-in closets, "in-suite caviar service," and a $200,000 Hastens bed, according to the cruise line.

Regent isn't shy about the Grandeur's $6 million art collection, which includes a custom Fabergé egg.

Compass Rose, the ship's largest dining room, doesn't adhere to a set cuisine.

It wouldn't be a luxury cruise without luxury products: Compass Rose's decorative and smaller bread and butter plates were made by Versace.

Diners wearing dark pants are offered a black napkin, because who would want to be caught with a napkin that doesn't match their outfit?

No need to pay extra for the lobster, veal, sashimi, or filet mignon.

However, travelers who crave finer bottles of wine — say the most expensive $2,500 bottle of Promontory — will have to pull out their wallets.

But let's be real, most people aren't going on a cruise to drink coffee, especially when booze is included in the fare.

Instead, these watering holes play a background role in places like the pool deck and the ship's three lounges.

If you're lounging on a chaise by the pool, an attendant will take your drink order.

These popular culinary lessons are hosted in the 18-station kitchen.

Here, there are options like a jogging track and a bocce court.

The gym is separate from the open-air sports deck. Like most ships, it's located in the spa.

Regent isn't the only player in the luxury cruise market — Royal Caribbean Group's Silversea Cruises also specializes in small luxurious vessels.

While the Silver Nova is longer by 66 feet, the Seven Seas Grandeur has a higher gross tonnage and guest capacity.

Brands like Ritz-Carlton and MSC Group's Explora Journeys have recently entered the increasingly busy industry. In 2025, both Four Seasons and Aman are set to launch their own cruise lines as well.

Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings has "not seen any change in the trajectory of bookings" for Regent despite the growing number of competitors, Harry Sommer, the company's president and CEO, said in a call with investors in November.

After all, who can say no to a cruise that practically spoon-feeds caviar to its travelers?
