The Queen Anne ship from Cunard is around six months away from its launch, and it has shown its first glimpses of what its 'elevated wellness and spa facilities' are looking like.

The cruise ship will become the 249th vessel to sail under the Cunard flag, and is set to enter service in 2024.

It will make up a quartet of Cunard ships at sea alongside Queen Mary 2, Queen Victoria, and Queen Elizabeth.

Inger Klein Thorhauge will serve as the first captain of the Queen Anne, and is also Cunard's first female captain.

First glimpse of Queen Anne wellness facilities

The Queen Anne is currently under construction at the Fincantieri Marghera shipyard in Venice, Italy and Cunard invited a group of global travel agent partners for its first behind-the-scenes tour of the vessel.

In a statement, Cunard said: "Queen Anne will boast the widest selection of fitness, beauty, thermal and spa facilities so far seen on a Cunard ship, with its reimagined Mareel Wellness & Beauty proposition heralding a new era of wellbeing at sea."

Guests will get to experience "uniquely crafted experiences" such as cryotherapy treatments, a Himalayan salt sauna and a cold room.

Cunard adds: "One of Queen Anne’s stand-out wellness spaces is The Pavilion, an idyllic open-air oasis on the top deck, which features a specially designed glass dome roof that retracts in warmer climes.

"Inspired by beautiful glasshouses, it is the ideal spot for getting lost in a book or enjoying a dip in the pool by day and for meeting new friends in the evening."

This space will also encompass the top deck Wellness Studio which will be "an ideal retreat for fitness fanatics, open from sunrise to sunset".

Additionally, it will host The Wellness Café which will celebrate "the vibrancy of plant-powered foods and sustainably sourced meat, dairy and fish options".
