Crystal introduces 1st Owner’s Suite aboard Crystal Grace ahead of 2028 delivery

Crystal has revealed its first-ever Owner’s Suite for an ocean-going vessel, confirming that the new accommodation will debut aboard Crystal Grace when the ship enters service in 2028.

The Owner’s Suite represents a new category within Crystal’s fleet and is being introduced as part of Crystal Grace’s all-suite, all-veranda design.

The residential-scale accommodation spans 1,950 square feet of interior space, complemented by a 1,965-square-foot veranda, making it the largest suite ever offered on a Crystal ocean ship.

The suite has been designed to support extended stays at sea, with a layout that prioritises separation of living, dining and sleeping areas, alongside integrated technology and private wellness facilities.

Interior finishes include walnut flooring, custom wool carpets and handcrafted cabinetry, while turquoise quartzite detailing has been incorporated into bespoke furniture pieces as a visual reference to the brand’s signature colour palette.

“We’re introducing a suite that goes beyond expectations,” said Cristina Levis, CEO of A&K Travel Group (AKTG), the parent company of Crystal. “From its elegant interiors to its seamless technology and personalised services, this suite embodies what makes Crystal distinctive: attention to every detail and an elevated way of life at sea.”

A central living room includes a library, fireplace and multi-zone Hi-Fi entertainment system, designed to function across both interior and exterior spaces. Music and media can be controlled through dual in-room touch panels, allowing guests to manage audio across multiple areas or access curated onboard playlists. Adjacent to the living area, the dining space offers panoramic ocean views, supported by a dedicated butler’s pantry and personalised bar service.

The master bedroom can be configured with either a king-size bed or twin beds and includes walk-in wardrobes, a recessed ceiling-mounted television and a custom sofa bench that converts into a third sleeping berth if required. The ensuite master bathroom is finished entirely in Italian Lasa marble and features a freestanding Jacuzzi, alongside a separate marble-lined guest bathroom.

Outdoor space forms a key component of the suite’s design, with the veranda equipped with a private whirlpool, shower, outdoor dining area and integrated audio, allowing for continuous use of the space regardless of time of day. For private fitness, the suite also includes a Technogym Bike Personal, designed by Antonio Citterio, offering personalised training programmes and integrated entertainment while positioned to face the ocean.

The introduction of the Owner’s Suite aligns with Crystal’s wider approach to high-end accommodation across Crystal Grace, which will feature veranda-equipped suites across all categories. While the Owner’s Suite establishes a new top tier within the onboard accommodation hierarchy, the ship’s overall design is intended to maintain consistency in space, materials and service standards throughout.

Crystal Grace is scheduled for delivery in May 2028, with her inaugural voyage set to depart on June 11th, 2028. The ship will mark Crystal’s next phase of fleet development following its return to the market, with design-led accommodation positioned as a central element of its future ocean product.
