"The food was generally very good but we had a couple of service problems at breakfast and on overdone steak one evening - we thought the head chef coming out to apologise was a little OTT!And the good news was that Regent has dropped the reintroduction of the traditional muster drill and it is now all online – as it should be...."Read More

1-10 of 63 Regent Seven Seas Navigator Romantic Cruises Reviews
Regent is going considered a six-star line, but as an experienced cruisers we found this to be a five-star ship.
Here are a few notes (issues and highlights by category):
Accommodations: Exceptional suites, extremely lean and despite their age are very well maintained, albeit with a somewhat outdated color palette. Very comfortable bedding, ample closet space, shower and tub separated, ...
Overall a great experience. Lost Moorea due to weather and Nuku Hiva was a waste of fuel. Should have added more time in Bora Bora. Ship is old but kept up pretty nicely. Air conditioning worked perfectly. Crew is great led by Ray, cruise director, who was everywhere.
Boarding: This was a mess with a long line as everyone seemed to board at the same time. Conversely, the disembarkment was ...
I want to preface this review by acknowledging that every cruise is different. Even if you exclusively sail on a specific ship, each itinerary, each new contingent of crew, entertainers and passengers all combine to create a very specific experience. I say that as I will try to review what should be similar on any cruise on Regent Navigator into account.
We've previously sailed on Regent ...
Just off Navigator last week. We are moderately experienced cruisers (~24 total), though this is our first Regent since the old Radisson Diamond in 1997.
We enjoyed the cruise, especially the excellent service and staff, both in the cabins and in the dining venues. There are always some glitchy times in dining, and this was no exception, as Christmas Day simply overwhelmed the ship's ability to ...
This was our second cruise on the Navigator this year, a special offer advertised in July for an Eastern Mediterranean itinerary with several new ports was too good to miss. Our trip was just a few weeks after the ship’s visit to the dry dock and the external paintwork looked pristine. It was more difficult to see what they had done to the interiors but everything looked in good condition. Reviews ...
We anticipated this cruise that was years in the planning. It was postponed several times due to Covid . Finally, on the fourth attempt at booking this "bucket list" travel event, we succeeded in getting aboard what was touted as an upscale ship rated a 10 for its culinary excellence. Indeed, when we entered our cabin, we were struck by its elegance and cleanliness.
The Regents was a ...
We have recently returned from a 10 night cruise on Regent Seven Seas Navigator (450 pax). We are a Brit/Dutch couple aged 53/60 and have sailed with various other cruise lines, several times, but this was our first time on Regent. Last year, we tried Oceania Marina for the first time and wanted to compare the two as they are sister companies. We’ve had a great cruise but we still (currently) ...
We chose this cruise mainly for the itinerary, which unfortunately changed several times. some of which i could understand and others not so much.
The Navigator is a small ship and is quite an old lady, but saying that we had a great time onboard with a great crew and really nice fellow passengers.
The food choice was the largest I have ever seen aboard any ship and was mostly very good with ...
We looked forward to this trip with great anticipation. While the itinerary was not particularly appealing, the proximity to home was and we decided to go for it.
The Excellent:
- Our butler, who was wonderful and made the entire trip special.
- Embarkation and parking, both easy and quick.
- Staff, overall, was exceptional with a few notable exceptions not in keeping with the overall ...
We have done several Regent Seven Seas cruise but this was the first on their oldest and smallest ship. Other reviews on the ship have not always been favourable but we found the ship in very good condition and the facilities and service levels fully up to previous Regent standards. - and really liked the small number of passengers (490). We had a suite in the rear, and the ship does vibrate a bit ...
