Crystal Reveals Suite Renderings for Upcoming Luxury Cruise Ship

Crystal is giving cruisers a sneak peek at its upcoming luxury cruise ship, Crystal Grace, with a series of suite renderings. The ship’s all-suite, all-veranda accommodations have been reimagined with enhanced storage and select suite categories offer expansive wraparound balconies, a first-ever configuration for the brand.

“From the very beginning of Crystal Grace’s design process, we prioritized listening to our guests,” said Cristina Levis, CEO of Abercrombie & Kent Travel Group. “Their preferences, their habits and the way they live while at sea informed every decision we made. These suites reflect a thoughtful evolution of space, comfort and accessibility, delivering the elevated residential feeling our guests have asked for while preserving the elegance and intimacy that define the Crystal experience.”

Designed by cruise ship architectural firm, GEM, with overall art direction and interior design coordinated by Milan-based architecture and design firm Studio Ibsen, the 337 suites can accommodate 650 guests (double occupancy). Every suite comes with the service of a Crystal butler, a curated pillow menu, bed linens by Jesurum 1870, and more.

“One of the features we know our guests will love most is the remarkable amount of open-air space, including expansive wraparound verandas in several suite categories,” said senior vice president of hotel operations for Crystal Bernie Leypold. “We also focused on creating more intuitive storage throughout, ensuring every item, whether a closet for a world cruise or treasures collected along the way, has a place. This increased flexibility allows guests to truly settle in, relax, and feel at home anywhere in the world.”

Suite choices are as follows:

Guest Room w/Veranda

These 230-square-feet rooms feature a 57-square-foot veranda, a living area with sofa, walk-in shower, and a built-in closet. Enhanced storage includes overhead compartments.
