When Crystal Cruises’ newest ship, Crystal Grace, debuts in 2028, it will have new family and outdoor spaces that will elevate the guest experience.

The Seahorse Pool will be the largest pool in Crystal’s fleet. The expansive pool area will feature 140 loungers between Deck 10 and 11 and have areas for guests to relax, socialize, and enjoy uninterrupted ocean views.
A large outdoor LED screen will serve as a focal point throughout the day and evening, hosting everything from live sporting events and destination programming to movie nights under the stars.
For the first time, Crystal is adding private cabanas to one of their ships. Crystal Grace will have 60 cabanas on Deck 11 that accommodate two guests each.
The cruise ship will also have a poolside bar that’s located directly behind the main pool area.
Areas for Families
On Deck 11, a dedicated youth area will be a vibrant gathering place where younger guests can enjoy the freedom of open-air play while surrounded by the sea.
Families can enjoy a shallow pool, outdoor recreational games, and a safe and welcoming environment. The area is being designed for active play and social interaction to help create meaningful experiences for younger cruisers.

Waves Teen Center is a dedicated space for teens ages 13 to 17 and will be located on Deck 11. It will have a larger entertainment lounge complete with an oversized screen for gaming, movies and group activities, and card and board game areas.
The center will operate daily with dedicated programming and activities during peak family travel periods.

Fantasia Children’s Playroom will be for children ages three through 12 and feature creative activities and supervised experiences.
Parents will be able to drop their children off with programming for younger cruisers, supervised activities for older children, and the continuation of the cruise line’s in-room babysitting services.
Bernie Leypold, Senior vice President of Hotel Operations for Crystal, said the following:
“Crystal Grace represents the future of exceptional luxury travel while honoring the elements our guests cherish most. As more families and multiple generations choose to travel together, we have thoughtfully expanded our offerings for younger guests while enhancing the outdoor spaces that make life at sea so memorable. These new venues create opportunities for connection, adventure, and relaxation for guests of every age.”
Crystal Grace will sail its maiden voyage on June 11, 2028, an eight-night cruise from Civitavecchia to Venice.
