Staying in a Seven Seas Mariner Concierge or Deluxe Veranda Suite

For thirteen sublime nights traversing the azure waters of the Mediterranean, I found myself ensconced in one of the Seven Seas Mariner’s coveted Concierge Suites. While architecturally a near-twin to its Deluxe Veranda counterpart, the Concierge category elevates the experience with a curated selection of privileges that transform an exceptional voyage into an extraordinary one.

Suite aesthetics: sophistication with purpose

The suite presents as a fine example of design efficiency – not overwhelmingly vast, yet thoughtfully conceived to create an atmosphere of expansiveness. The centerpiece is undoubtedly the sumptuous queen bed dressed in linens of exceptional thread count, complemented by a distinct sitting area featuring a tailored sofa and artisanal coffee table. A writing desk and vanity add functionality without compromising the room’s flow, while the walk-in closet proves an indispensable luxury for the well-packed passenger.

The bathroom, though serviceable and appointed with premium amenities, betrays the vessel’s need for its forthcoming 2025 renovation. The combination tub-shower arrangement feels particularly anachronistic against contemporary sensibilities.

The suite’s crown jewel reveals itself beyond the glass doors – a generously proportioned teak veranda that serves as a private sanctuary. Here, the reclining deck chairs invite languid afternoons of champagne sipping and Mediterranean horizon-gazing, offering a tableau vivant of ever-changing seascapes.

Practical elegance: storage solutions

Storage presents itself with the kind of ingenuity one expects from luxury travel accommodations.

The walk-in closet easily accommodates the contents of over-packed luggage, while bedside tables with discrete drawers safeguard essential nighttime accoutrements.

The vanity area offers female passengers a dedicated space for cosmetic ritual and organisation.

Only the writing desk disappoints slightly in its dimensions – more suitable for correspondence than endeavors involving large electronic devices.

Charging devices in the suite

For the digitally tethered passenger, the suite offers dual charging capabilities – American and European outlets at the desk, with a single pairing of each beside the bed (a consideration particularly appreciated by those requiring CPAP machines). Conspicuously absent were USB charging ports.

Concierge Suite perks

The Concierge experience distinguishes itself through an array of thoughtful privileges. Daily laundry service returns garments almost like new. The tailored mini-bar setup ensures your preferred libations await your return from each excursion, while the illy Espresso machine provides café-quality stimulation at all hours. Other refined touches include binoculars for coastline viewing and an impossibly soft cashmere throw for evening veranda moments.

The technological advantages extend to complimentary internet access, while pre-voyage benefits include a luxury hotel stay to ease the transition from land to sea. The complete portfolio of Concierge advantages merits discussion with your travel advisor during booking.

For the discerning cruise guest seeking high-sea elegance without ostentation, the Seven Seas Mariner Concierge Suite accommodations deliver a sophisticated haven worthy of the magnificent Mediterranean waters they traverse.
