Seabourn Encore

Seabourn Encore is a luxury cruise ship built by Fincantieri of Italy for Seabourn Cruise Line. She entered service in January 2017, carrying around 604 guests across 302 suites, placing her among the mid-sized ships. As the first of a new class, she runs about 26 percent larger than Seabourn's three Odyssey-class vessels and holds around 34 percent more passengers based on double occupancy. Her sister ship is the MV Seabourn Ovation, and she was christened in Singapore on 7 January 2017, with godmother Sarah Brightman.

Every suite aboard Seabourn Encore comes with a private veranda, and accommodations throughout are thoughtfully appointed, designed as homes with a separate lounge area. Suite grades range from standard oceanview cabins to expansive owner's suites. Contemporary interiors from Adam Tihany's design firm run throughout the ship, including the Main Dining Room and the club-like Seabourn Square lounge.

Seabourn Encore operates on an all-inclusive basis, with a strong choice of dining venues and open-bar lounges, letting guests dine when, where and with whom they wish. Multiple restaurants and bars span fine dining, casual venues and a sushi restaurant. Compared with earlier Seabourn ships, Encore carries one additional deck, redesigned venues, expanded public spaces and one of the largest spas at sea. Across her 12 decks, 10 of which are passenger accessible, guests will find 3 restaurants, 10 lounges and bars, 2 swimming pools and 5 jacuzzis.

Her dimensions and design suit her well for accessing coastal landscapes, wildlife areas and remote communities while maintaining Seabourn's all-suite luxury format. In June 2025, new grand show productions arrived onboard, including Better Together! featuring rock band music, the city-skyline themed Skyline, nature-themed Earthsong, and Silverscreen! with contemporary musical hits.

Seabourn Encore suits couples, experienced travellers, and those seeking refined all-suite luxury, with excellent dining, fine service, and access to less-visited ports.
