Art On The High Seas

Floating casinos, celebrity chef restaurants, Broadway-style entertainment - been there, done that. Taking the luxury cruise experience up another notch is Regent Seven Seas Cruises' latest ship Seven Seas Splendour, which sets sail in February with a drool-worthy US$5 million worth of art from the likes of Pablo Picasso and Joan Miró. The 300-piece collection features the works of some 200 artists, sourced from galleries and artists around the world and peppered throughout the all-suite, all-balcony ship that also boasts more than 46,000 sq ft of Italian marble. If that's not enough, there are 216 crystal chandeliers to be dazzled by, including a massive grand centrepiece made of blown glass and steel weighing three tonnes. Don't forget to pack your sunglasses before you board its inaugural Caribbean and Mediterranean cruise.
