The instantly iconic feature, greeting guests upon arrival; ‘The Pearl’ is a blend of structural genius and sculpture, wowing passengers with a 53-ft-diameter kinetic art installation. This eye-catching feature doubles as a load-bearing superstructure supporting the nine decks above, allowing for the three-deck-high by 95-foot-wide panoramic window, filling the Royal Promenade with natural light.
