Like her sister ships, she was built at the internationally renowned Chantiers de l'Atlantique shipyard in St. Nazaire, France, and has been laid up since September, 2001 because of Renaissance's bankruptcy filing.

Excerpts from Renaissance's Website about the R Seven

Built by the Chantiers de l'Atlantique of Saint-Nazaire, France, the R-Class ships are nearly identical in design. Each ship has 11 decks and accommodates 684 passengers in spacious suites and staterooms that have the feel of luxury hotel rooms.

Our R-Class ships feature four restaurants that offer open seating and casual dress codes. There are five lounges or bars, a health spa, two whirlpool spas, swimming pool, fitness track, a library, duty free shopping and other facilities for indoor and outdoor activities.
