Accommodation

Sun Princess

Welcoming the next generation of cruise ships to the Princess family! The new Sun Princess is the first ship in the fleet to be powered by Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG), significantly reducing its environmental footprint. She offers 1,500 balconies, the most of any ship in the fleet. And with over 29 bars and restaurants, there is plenty of good food and drink to be enjoyed. Sun Princess began her voyages in 2024.

Interior Cabin

The most affordable option for guests who want a comfortable spot to recharge. An interior is the perfect place to recharge your batteries. The most affordable option, these staterooms feature two twin beds or a queen-size bed and the basic amenities you expect, from a flat-panel TV to an in-room refrigerator.

Oceanview Cabin

A room with an expansive view. Whether the calm of the deep blue sea or the adventure of a new city on the horizon, the Premium Oceanview stateroom ensures picture-perfect snapshots from the comfort of your room. This stateroom includes all the amenities of an interior room and the added benefit of ocean views that bring an airy openness to the space.

Balcony

Breathe in ocean air from your breathtaking Cove Balcony. Looking forward to taking in the panoramic views from your ship? The Cove Balcony is the perfect option for you. Sip on your coffee or cocktails from the comfort of your private balcony and enjoy luxury amenities.

Mini Suite

Treat yourself every time you walk into your stateroom. A complimentary glass of bubbly isn’t the only perk you enjoy when you choose a Mini-Suite. It’s substantially larger than a balcony stateroom and includes a separate seating area with a sofa bed and two flat-panel TVs.

Suite

The largest, most premium stateroom with accommodation for up to five guests. The exceptional features of a Signature Sky Suite include luxurious appointments, an expansive stateroom and balcony featuring two bedrooms, two bathrooms, one with a full bath with tub and separate shower, a seating area, and a sofa bed.
