Seattle,
March 17, 2016
- Seabourn has unveiled design details and imagery
of The Retreat, the new sanctuary that will make its debut on the
ultra-luxury cruise line's newest vessel, Seabourn Encore, this December. Located on
Deck 12, The Retreat will be outfitted with custom details and modern elements
to create the ultimate serene space.
A tranquil setting housed in a distinctive flower-shaped canopy that shields
guests from sun and wind, The Retreat is ringed with 15 private cabanas
designed as individual luxury living rooms that each feature a large HD flat
screen television and a refrigerator stocked with a personalized selection of
beverages. An additional Spa Treatment Cabana is also available for guests to
enjoy personalized spa services.
"The Retreat is the perfect environment for guests to experience pure
relaxation and rejuvenation, from your own private cabana or shared
spaces," said Chris Prelog, Seabourn's vice president of marine hotel
operations. "As a perfect rooftop getaway, The Retreat is sure to be among
the most popular destinations onboard our vessels."
The Retreat is located around a central whirlpool with step-up access to water
maintained at an inviting temperature. Up to 28 guests can stretch out on
comfortable sun loungers; pull up a bar stool or take a table seat for
champagne and cocktails custom created by Seabourn mixologists; or enjoy a
selection of bites from a healthy spa menu. A selection of amenities include
fresh fruit baskets, premium sun lotions, Evian mist spray, plush towels and
personalized bathrobes, while a dedicated Retreat Concierge will be available
to satisfy guest requests.
Cabanas at The Retreat will be available daily and may be reserved for a full
day via the Guest Service Specialists at Seabourn Square. Rates for cabanas
will begin at $350 per couple per day.
Seabourn
Encore
will expand and build on the line's award-winning and highly acclaimed
Odyssey-class ships, which revolutionized ultra-luxury cruising with enhanced
accommodations and innovative amenities when they were introduced between 2009
and 2011. Seabourn Encore will maintain the line's high ratio of space
per guest, enabling highly personalized service. A sister ship, Seabourn
Ovation, will join the fleet in 2018.
Designed
by hospitality design icon Adam D. Tihany, Seabourn Encore will feature
modern design elements and innovations consistent with the line's reputation
for understated elegance. The 40,350-GRT ship will be configured with one
additional deck and new expanded public areas, and is expected to carry just
600 guests, based on double occupancy. In addition, every suite will feature a
private veranda.
Seabourn will continue to reveal renderings and updates about Seabourn
Encore via the dedicated microsite: http://encore.seabourn.com. Filled with imagery, details
and news of the ship's continuing progress, including "sunsets until
launch," the microsite offers an inside look at the most exciting Seabourn
launch in years. Additional details, news and images will be revealed on the
site on an ongoing basis.
