Cruising offers a wealth of options, spanning from entertainment to dining to adventure, and when it comes to choosing the perfect suite for an upgraded experience, your room can be more than just a relaxing place to unwind after a day of activities. Picking the perfect suite will allow you and your travel companions to get even more out of your vacation. You can customize your experience onboard, from lounging on your own balcony with an ocean view, savoring delicious hors d'oeuvres in a club exclusively for suite guests or asking your personal butler for a bottle of champagne. As you choose from the cruise suites available, here are some tips to help you plan your upcoming adventure. Check this infographic for ideas.
How To Choose
The Right Stateroom
You figured out which itinerary would make your vacation dreams come true, and determined the exact right ship for you. Now you’re looking at dozens of room categories and wondering, where do I even start? The answer: Right here.
If You Chose Mostly A's, You Want To Book:
An Interior Stateroom
Interior staterooms are the most budget-friendly. And while some are windowless spaces that are ideal for using your stateroom as a crash pad, Royal Caribbean® offers a variety of innovative interior options. Look for staterooms with built-in video screens that show you the view from the bridge and ‘Promenade-view interior staterooms,’ which have a bay-style window that looks out over shops and restaurants — and a weekly parade.
If You Chose Mostly B's, You Want To Book:
An Ocean View Stateroom
Staterooms with ocean-facing windows provide ocean vistas, and are still a good value. If you’re picking an exterior stateroom because you value specific views, location plays a vital role. Consider whether you prefer a portside (left) or starboard-side (right) stateroom, depending on the direction of your travel — if you're traveling south for the majority of your trip and prefer to see sunrises, you want to choose a stateroom on the portside.
If You Chose Mostly C's, You Want To Book:
A Balcony Stateroom
Balcony staterooms are a popular choice, allowing for not only the sound of the sea but fresh air and private outdoor space to boot. If you’re at all worried about getting seasick, midship suites are centrally located, minimizing motion from the ship's movement and offering easy access to many onboard amenities by being closer to elevators and staircases.
If You Chose Mostly D's, You Want To Book:
A Suite
With Sea-tier suites, you get perks like priority boarding, a dedicated check-in line as well as upgraded pillows, mattresses, bathrobes and luxury bath products. The next group of suites, Sky tier, includes everything in Sea, plus priority reservations and reserved seating at select entertainment venues, and a complimentary internet package. The smallest, the one-bedroom Grand Suites, come with a bathroom with two sinks and a tub. Another cool option to consider: The one-bedroom AquaTheater Suites, where the balcony offers private box-seat style views of the aerial acrobatics.
