Set to debut in June 2011, Seabourn Quest, twice as large as the other ships in the Seabourn fleet, will be Seabourn Cruises' new flagship and the first-ever ship built and designed for them. Seabourn Quest will be the newest Seabourn cruise ship, featuring public spaces and accommodations that are new to the fleet. Those worrying about a larger ship resulting in cramped quarters or less service should be thrilled to hear that this 32,000-ton mid-sized vessel will only accommodate a maximum of 450 passengers per cruise (based on double occupancy), and will have a crew of 335 well-trained staff members (resulting in an extraordinary 1 to 1.3 crew-to-passenger ratio). This ship's staff is well trained and ready to assist you with your every need.

While sailing on an Seabourn Quest cruise, guests are able to choose from a great variety of public spaces. Seabourn Quest will offer six bars and lounges including Seabourn Square (featuring a Coffee Bar, library, computer center and concierge services), the Grand Salon, The Club (where live performances take place throughout each Seabourn Quest cruise), Observation Bar (an observation bar with floor-to-ceiling windows providing sweeping views of the ship's surroundings), Sky Bar and Patio Bar. Other areas of interest available aboard Seabourn Quest are the casino, fitness center, library, spa, swimming pool, as well as the private cabanas on the Sun Deck.

Dining aboard Seabourn Quest is fabulous, featuring fine dining cuisine that's prepared by the ship's renowned chefs. From gourmet eateries and room service to main dining rooms and outdoor restaurants, there's something for everyone. Seabourn Quest will feature four dining venues including The Colonnade (indoor/outdoor restaurant serving breakfast, lunch and dinner), Patio Grill (casual dining at its finest served right by the pool side), The Restaurant (gourmet open-seating restaurant offering guests Charlie Palmer's exceptional dishes), and the Restaurant 2 (featuring Intense flavors, stellar service, intriguing food and wine pairings). Soda, bottled water, wine and non-alcoholic specialty coffees and teas are complimentary throughout the cruise, as are house wine during lunch and dinner. All guests also benefit from receiving a fully stocked bar in their stateroom.
