The Best Cruise Ship Suites

Fancy indulging a little more on your next cruise? Enjoy living the life of luxury with suite accommodations and benefits on-board a range of mainstream cruise lines. Here are some of our top picks for experiencing a ‘suite life’ on your next sailing.

Royal Caribbean 

Royal Caribbean offers plenty suite and deluxe rooms – Royal Suites, Owners Suites and Panoramic Stateroom to name a few. Most of these come with a bathtub, private balcony for the ultimate ocean views, lounge space for friends and family to relax and a Royal King size bed. 

“On Symphony of the Seas, my favourite experiences of sailing in a Grand Suite were the separate sun deck area for suite guests with sun beds with more space around them and with the benefit of a separate bar and hot tubs – perfect peace and quiet especially during days at sea, plus the reserved suite seating at all theatre and aqua-theatre shows – you really feel like a VIP!”  – Alison Earnshaw, Managing Director of Cruise118

The Haven - Norwegian Encore

Start your morning with a glass of sunshine and fresh ocean breezes on your own private balcony as you experience life in your very own Haven. The Haven by Norwegian Cruise Line is an exclusive concept, featuring luxurious, well-appointed and spacious accommodations – voted Best Accommodations by Porthole Magazine.

“NCL Haven offers a real ‘ship within a ship experience’ and incorporates all you will need so you wouldn’t even need to venture into the main ship if you so desired. On Norwegian Bliss, a lovely indoor pool and relaxation area is overlooked by the exclusive restaurant, available for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and there is also outdoor deck space accessible only by Haven guests. My fabulous suite included separate dining and lounge area with a small bar, a separate second bedroom space perfect for children, and a spa bath overlooking the ocean.”
