Crystal Grace

Crystal Grace is scheduled for delivery on 31 May 2028, with a series of preview sailings ahead of the inaugural voyage, which departs on 11 June 2028 from Rome to Fusina (Venice). The inaugural 2028 season opened for sale in April 2026, with a waitlist available in advance. Given the level of interest from returning Crystal guests, early itineraries are expected to book quickly. If a specific sailing is on your radar, enquiring early is advisable.

Three key areas. First, every suite features a private veranda, which isn’t the case on the existing ships. Second, the outdoor dining offering is more expansive, with covered terraces at Beefbar and Osteria d’Ovidio creating a stronger connection to the sea. Third, the Stardust Club and Galaxy Lounge are grouped together on Deck 11, creating a more cohesive evening atmosphere. Crystal Grace is also the line’s first purpose-built new ship in 25 years, so the design, layout and technology reflect modern standards rather than a refurbishment of an older vessel.

Crystal Grace accommodates 650 guests at double occupancy across 337 all-suite, all-veranda accommodations. That places her slightly larger than Crystal Symphony at 606 guests, but smaller than Crystal Serenity at 740. The scale is deliberate — large enough to support nine dining venues and a comprehensive onboard offering, yet intimate enough to maintain one of the highest crew-to-guest ratios in the ultra-luxury sector.

Three speciality restaurants have been confirmed, all included in the fare. Umi Uma by Nobu returns on Deck 5 with 84 seats and a walk-in sushi bar. Osteria d’Ovidio is located on Deck 10 with 68 indoor and 20 outdoor seats, featuring menus by three-Michelin-starred chef Massimiliano Alajmo. Beefbar sits alongside it on Deck 10, with 56 indoor and 58 outdoor seats on a covered terrace. Additional casual venues, an enhanced Bistro and a dedicated Pool Bar are planned, with further details to be announced.

The inaugural season begins in the Mediterranean, with the first voyage sailing from Rome to Fusina (Venice) on 11 June 2028. Grace then spends the summer in the Mediterranean before crossing to New York in September for voyages in Northeast USA and Canada. The ship transitions to the Caribbean to close out the year, offering a well-balanced introduction to three distinct regions within her first season.

The inaugural 2028 season opened for sale in April 2026. Given the level of demand from returning Crystal guests, popular itineraries and higher suite categories are expected to book quickly.

New for Crystal Grace, the Owner’s Suite is the most ambitious accommodation Crystal has introduced at sea.
