Regent Seven Seas Cruises® has unveiled the next evolution of its partnership with Global Hotel Alliance (GHA), expanding The Concierge Collection into a truly global pre-cruise offering for the 2027–2028 seasons. Designed for travellers who want their ultra-luxury journey to begin well before embarkation, the refreshed program pairs three-night stays at some of the world’s finest independent hotels with all-inclusive voyages on board four ships in The World’s Most Luxurious Fleet™.
A Seamless Blend of Five-Star Stays and Ultra-Luxury Cruising
Launched in 2024, The Concierge Collection was originally focused on select European properties, giving Regent guests the option to add an expertly curated pre-cruise stay before stepping aboard. For 2027–2028, the concept has been significantly expanded to include Asia Pacific and the Indian Ocean, reflecting growing demand from luxury cruisers for longer, more immersive journeys that combine land and sea in one seamless itinerary. Guests enjoy three nights in a hand-picked GHA hotel, a hosted welcome cocktail with regional entertainment and cuisine, and small-group touring before joining one of 28 Regent voyages.
The collection is designed to feel effortless: transfers, accommodation and touring are packaged together, so guests can sink into holiday mode from the moment they arrive. It is particularly appealing to Australian travellers looking to justify a long-haul flight with added pre-cruise time in bucket-list cities and resorts, without having to DIY the logistics.
Immersive Land Programs in Asia Pacific, Europe and the Indian Ocean
The 2027–2028 edition features 12 standout GHA properties across three key regions, each paired with bespoke touring that showcases both headline attractions and under-the-radar experiences. In Asia Pacific, options include Apurva Kempinski Bali, Capella Sydney, Marsa Malaz Kempinski The Pearl Doha, Pan Pacific Bellustar in Tokyo, Pan Pacific Singapore and The Murray in Hong Kong. Guests might find themselves exploring Singapore’s diverse neighbourhoods, taking a desert safari from Doha or weaving between temples and rice terraces in Bali before heading to the pier.
European stays centre on culture-rich capitals and coastal icons: Anantara Palazzo Naiadi in Rome, Çırağan Palace Kempinski in Istanbul, Divani Apollon Palace & Thalasso in Athens, Hotel Café Royal in London and Hotel Tivoli Avenida Liberdade in Lisbon. Sample experiences range from awe-inspiring Vatican visits and Bosphorus-side palace views to sunset drinks overlooking Lisbon’s skyline. In the Indian Ocean, Anantara Iko Mauritius Resort & Villas sets the scene for languid days between hikes in Black River Gorges National Park and time on Mauritius’ pristine beaches.
Elevated Benefits Through the GHA DISCOVERY Loyalty Program
Beyond the curated itineraries, the partnership delivers enhanced value via GHA’s DISCOVERY loyalty program. Regent guests who book within The Concierge Collection receive elite status in GHA DISCOVERY, along with access to the program’s D$ rewards currency, which can be used for stays, dining and experiences at GHA’s global portfolio of hotels, resorts and palaces. This means the benefits extend well beyond the pre-cruise stay, giving travellers reasons to engage with GHA properties on future independent trips as well.
For Regent, the collaboration amplifies its proposition of an Unrivaled Experience® by adding land-based luxury that mirrors the line’s onboard standards. For GHA, it introduces a steady stream of highly qualified, high-spend guests who are already attuned to ultra-luxury service. The result is a win–win ecosystem where guests can move fluidly between brands while enjoying recognition, rewards and consistently elevated experiences.
