Review summary

Our third trip to Alaska on the Seven Seas Mariner was as amazing as the first! Cruising Alaska on a Regent ship is the only way to go!

Our embarkation went smoothly, even though there were added Covid 19 pre-boarding requirements.

Food and Dining

Every restaurant on the Mariner provides superior food and wine service. Menu selections are extensive and elegantly prepared.

Bingo, Casino Games, Afternoon Tea, as well as many other offerings. There is definitely something for everyone.

Entertainment

The evening stage shows and visiting Magician were quite entertaining.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

We received outstanding service from every member of the Mariner staff. Our stewardess and sommelier stand out as personal favorites.

5 out of 5

Ship cleanliness and maintenance were always a top priority.

Cabin / Stateroom

Our cabin was spotless and serviced at least twice daily. There is plenty of storage and the furniture and bedding are very comfortable.

Cruise Hubbard Glacier

4 out of 5

This is the third time we have been on a Regent cruise scheduled to stop at this location. Due to unpredictable weather conditions in Alaska, every cruise experience has been different. On this trip, due to greater than normal ice flow in the water, we only got within 5 miles of the glacier face. Still close enough to get a good look and nice photos.

Glad to hear you enjoyed your Alaskan cruise. Thanks for your positive review of Mariner. We are on her for the 2023 WC Jan-May. Have sailed Regent before but not on Mariner.
