The Regent Suite (5,089 sq ft) is the top cabin.
Dining
Every restaurant is included in the fare, with no surcharges. Compass Rose is the main dining room, Chartreuse serves modern French, Pacific Rim serves Pan-Asian, Prime 7 is the steakhouse, and Sette Mari at La Veranda serves Italian. The Pool Grill and Coffee Connection cover casual meals.
