Princess Cruises Expands Luxury Sanctuary Collection Across Five Royal Class Ships

• Fleet-Wide VIP Expansion: Princess Cruises brings its premier resort-within-a-resort experience, the Sanctuary Collection, to five popular Royal Class ships.

• All-Inclusive Luxury Perks: Every booking automatically includes the top-tier Princess Premier package, covering unlimited premium beverages, speciality dining, Wi-Fi, and gratuities.

• Southampton Sailing Included: The rollout debuts between January and June 2027, featuring UK favourite Sky Princess on no-fly voyages from Southampton.

Imagine having your own tranquil, boutique resort tucked away on the top deck of a world-class ocean vessel.

While the ship glides towards breathtaking coastal vistas, you enjoy uncrowded sundecks, chilled drinks delivered straight to your lounger, and dedicated concierge service catering to your every wish.

Following its sensational debut aboard Sun Princess and Star Princess, Princess Cruises has announced that its coveted Sanctuary Collection is expanding across five of its most popular Royal Class vessels.

Beginning with Royal Princess and rolling out across Discovery Princess, Enchanted Princess, Regal Princess, and UK favourite Sky Princess, this multi-ship transformation brings elevated dining, private retreats, and lavish all-inclusive benefits to a wider global audience.

An Exclusive Private Sanctuary Club

At the heart of the experience is the private Sanctuary Club, an intimate oasis engineered for ultimate relaxation away from the bustling main decks.

Guests will enjoy exclusive access to an upscale private pool area outfitted with plush, upgraded loungers and luxurious shaded cabanas available to reserve.

Attentive crew members provide personalised poolside food and beverage service, allowing you to sip chilled champagne and sample curated light bites without ever lifting a finger.

Whether you are enjoying an afternoon cocktail or reading beneath the sun, it provides an idyllic, crowd-free atmosphere at sea.

Destination-Inspired Dining and Princess Premier

Dining within the Sanctuary Collection is designed as a culinary celebration of the ports you visit. Guests enjoy exclusive access to the dedicated Sanctuary Restaurant, an intimate dining venue featuring daily menus inspired by local ingredients and regional flavours from around the globe.

Even better, every guest booking a Sanctuary Collection stateroom or suite automatically receives Princess Premier, the line’s most comprehensive all-inclusive package. That means your cruise includes:

• Unlimited Premium Drinks: Top-shelf spirits, cocktails, fine wines by the glass, and barista coffees.

• Speciality and Casual Dining: Indulge across the fleet’s celebrated speciality restaurants and casual eateries.

• Seamless Connectivity: Multi-device MedallionNet high-speed Wi-Fi to keep in touch with home.

• Complete Peace of Mind: Crew appreciation (gratuities) fully covered, alongside complimentary room service and OceanNow on-demand delivery anywhere on the ship.

Upgraded Accommodations and Suite Perks

The Sanctuary Collection encompasses a curated selection of suites and staterooms, including newly constructed premium oceanview accommodations.

Guests booking full suites unlock an even higher tier of pampering. Alongside access to an exclusive, private Suite Lounge for evening cocktails and refreshments, suite guests are paired with a dedicated Suite Concierge.

From securing front-row theatre seats to coordinating bespoke shore excursions and dining reservations, your concierge ensures your time on board is effortless.

Sanctuary Collection guests also receive priority boarding, reserved access across key ship venues, curated in-room amenities, and custom daily entertainment programming.

Rollout Dates Across the Fleet

The expansion represents the first stage of a multi-year fleet modernisation project, with bookings opening progressively over the coming weeks:

• Royal Princess: On sale now! Debuts 4 January 2027 on a 12-day South Pacific voyage. (Guests already holding Reserve Collection bookings on this ship will automatically receive Sanctuary Collection perks at no added cost, excluding the Premier package).
