The world of luxury cruising has given rise to some of the most extraordinary ships in the world. Competing to be the most opulent, exclusive, and relaxing cruising experience on the market, these ships represent the very highest standard in maritime hospitality service, accommodation, and facilities. So, what is the most luxurious cruise ship in the world? Here are Bolsover Cruise Club’s top picks!
As the tenth ship in Silversea’s ultra-luxury fleet, the Silver Dawn flaunts a timeless design that feels as modern as the newest ships in the world. With eight dining options, guests can eat to their heart’s content, perusing menus of divine meals before enjoying them while soaking up sweeping ocean views. Perhaps no dining area better reflects this ship’s luxury than the Sea and Land Taste (S.A.L.T.) programme, which makes every guest feel personally catered for.
Inspired by the Roman baths, the Silver Dawn’s OtiumSpa is another jewel in this ship’s crown, offering rejuvenating experiences using history’s most inventive treatments. Serenity embodied, this spa curates sessions to soothe particular aches and pains, bringing the world’s most relaxing treatments to guests’ rooms too, making every day one of spiritual recovery.
Journeying to the most remote corners of the world, Seabourn Venture takes ultra-luxury to places previously thought impossible. Housing two custom-built on board submarines, this ship offers guests unprecedented access to the extraordinary shores of the polar regions and beyond, in addition to double sea kayaks, e-bikes, and mountain bikes.
In addition to its unrivalled shore excursion offerings, this Seabourn ship features a soul-enriching itinerary. Guests can take a seat in its plush Discovery Centre for talks from a 27-strong team of knowledgeable experts, dine on meals curated by award-winning chef Thomas Keller, or partake in Tai Chi or pilates at the on board spa.
The ship that started it all for Explora Journeys – as the first in the cruise line’s six luxury ships, EXPLORA I was curated by the world’s foremost superyacht and luxury hospitality designers to excel on every front. Its 461 oceanfront suites and penthouses are stunningly furnished and specifically crafted to make each and every guest feel closer to the sea, thanks to floor-to-ceiling windows and private terraces.
On board this standard-setting ship, guests can take advantage of 700 sq ft of wellness facilities, including a pool with a retractable glass roof, allowing for daytime swimming regardless of the weather. Evenings can be spent dining at any of EXPLORA I’s nine sensational restaurants, each offering a distinct culinary experience fueled by local, sustainable ingredients. And when dinner is over, Le Jazz awaits for unforgettable nights of Parisian jazz music and French martinis.
No ship of its size features more al fresco eateries than Viking Star, putting guests as close to their dream destinations at all times. Whether they dine at the Aquavit Terrace to enjoy the fresh air and horizon views or the serene atmosphere of the Winter Garden, meals on board this Viking ship are unmatched on the seas.
Whether they opt to soak in the views from the infinity pool or take on a cooking course, Viking Star delivers the very best in luxury cruising at all times. Guests can get comfortable for evenings of live performance inspired by local cultures or cool down at the spa’s Snowgrotto. No matter their choice, this ship offers guests Scandinavian elegance throughout their entire exploration of the Mediterranean.
When unbridled luxury meets unrestrained adventure, you get the Scenic Eclipse. Designed to provide a six-star experience no matter where it sails in the world, this Scenic Ocean Cruises vessel made its maiden voyage in 2019 and was the world’s first all-inclusive discovery yacht with suites, spa treatments, dining, helicopter access, submarine access, and zodiacs.
Each day on board Scenic Eclipse is a demonstration of pure luxury cruising. From dining on premium French dishes at Lumière or savouring a sizzling fillet steak at Elements, to rejuvenating in the yoga studio or on a sunlounger at the Spa Terrace, Scenic Eclipse guarantees serene relaxation, from the stoic Norwegian Fjords to the tropics of South America.
Ask any cruise expert what the most luxurious cruise ship in the world is, and they will probably point you in the direction of the Seven Seas Explorer – and we can’t disagree! Billed by many as perhaps the most luxurious cruise ship ever, this ship’s sophistication, elegance, and comfort make it a small slice of heaven for guests journeying from the corners of Canada to the rich cultural network of Far East Asia.
Every step throughout this floating resort is an opportunity to explore something new and exciting. One night, guests might opt for a relaxing evening listening to the ship’s very own orchestra; the next, they may pop into La Veranda for a plateful of Italian excellence.
Whether they choose the jacuzzi or the comfort of their own suite stateroom, guests are always in close proximity to complete, undisturbed relaxation thanks to the ship’s deliberate, conscientious design.
