• ✦The Retreat — an exclusive ship-within-a-ship suite enclave with its own restaurant (Luminae, designed by Kelly Hoppen), a private lounge and a two-level sundeck with pool, cabanas and bar, all served by dedicated butler and concierge teams.
• ✦Rooftop Garden — an expanded, tree-lined open-air escape on the top deck, now featuring two cantilevered 'floating' pools that extend about six feet beyond the ship's edge, with live music by day and open-air dining under the stars at night.
• ✦Resort Deck — the main pool deck that transforms from a daytime resort into the 'Ascent After Dark' open-air night venue with high-energy live performances, a prism light show and a DJ.
• ✦Magic Carpet — the industry's first cantilevered, moving platform: a tennis-court-sized deck that travels up and down the starboard hull to serve as a specialty restaurant (Dinner on the Edge), a full bar and a tender-boarding platform.
• ✦Le Voyage by Daniel Boulud — the Michelin-starred chef's flagship restaurant at sea, an intimate fine-dining room of globe-spanning tasting menus that headlines Ascent's eight specialty restaurants.
