We've seen some stunning ships making their debut recently at the luxury end of the market, along with many old favourites that have undergone multimillion-dollar refurbishments, resulting in some rather outrageous suites that are sure to elevate your cruise experience. Read on for our picks of the most outrageous and Instagrammable suites on some of our favourite ships…
In the last few years we've seen the launch of new cruise brands aimed specifically at Instagram's core demographic, with ships designed to draw the attention of millennial travellers. But these cruise lines don't have a monopoly on visually arresting interiors...so without further ado, here's our pick of the most Instagrammable suites at sea.
The new Skyview category on board Regent's latest ship, the Seven Seas Prestige (set to launch in December 2026), offers three different layouts to choose from - the Aura, Luna and Sola - comprising six suites in total.
And it's one of the most luxurious suites we've ever seen, not least because of its size, with the largest at over 2,000 sqft. Reached via an in-suite lift, guests will enjoy a residential-style design, panoramic windows and their own huge expansive Skyview Terrace for al fresco dining with 180-degree views, alongside a private hot tub.
Four Seasons Yachts, launching at the start of next year, will combine the renowned hospitality of the chain's hotels with stylish décor and accommodation very different from anything you will find elsewhere at sea.
The Funnel Suite is the most impressive at 5,057 square feet, alongside 4,917 square feet of terrace and ample space for five adults and one child. Housed within the vessel's glass-enclosed funnel, the suite is multi-level and has its own indoor and outdoor gym.
Seabourn's spectacular apartment-style Wintergarden and Grand Wintergarden Suites on Seabourn Pursuit and Venture are spread over two decks, with a host of added extras and 1,044 square feet of space.
The Grand Wintergarden Suites re even bigger, with a second bedroom and bathroom, and both suite categories feature dining for six, whirlpool bathtub, guest bath, convertible sofa bed for one, pantry with wet bar, and a glass-enclosed solarium with tub and day bed.
Scenic's yachts Scenic Eclipse I and II are the ultimate luxury-cum-adventure vessels with their sleek design and onboard helicopters and submarines, and their Owner's Penthouses provide all the space you would expect from a toplevel suite.
The real pièce de résistance is the Jacuzzi located on your private terrace at the front of the ship, providing spectacular views. It is also worth noting the Owner's Penthouse can be combined with a Spa Suite to create a spectacular 2,500-square-foot two-bedroom suite.
Ponant's fleet of Explorer class yachts' lavish Owner's Suites, located at the back of the ships, are supremely spacious, with a bathroom boasting floor-to-ceiling windows to relax in your bath and soak up the sea views.
Lounge and dine on your private 323-square-foot private terrace complete with outdoor Jacuzzi, plus additional benefits including butler service, included private airport transfers and one hour of complimentary spa treatments.
The 740-square-foot Grand Penthouses on Explora I are perfect for the leisurely lifestyle that Explora Journeys encourages, with residential-style living and areas dedicated to dining, relaxing, sleeping, and even working on board, should you so please!
There's also a spacious lounge area and dining table for four guests, as well as a panoramic oceanfront terrace with dining area and comfortable daybeds, and a double sofa bed makes it ideal for those travelling with children.
The relaunch of Crystal and their two ocean vessels, Crystal Serenity and Crystal Symphony, brought with it several new categories of accommodation and we love the elegant, beautiful design of the Junior Crystal Penthouse Suite, boasting up to 645 square feet of space.
Enjoy the separate bedroom with walk-in closet, modern and spacious bathroom and a thoughtfully designed living and dining area, not to mention verandah space of up to 161 square feet.
