While chartering a private jet to get from Point A to Point B is efficient and luxurious, today’s upscale cruise liners have given new meaning to the term “premium” with offerings like celebrity chefs, exclusive on-shore excursions, magnificent itineraries and enthralling entertainment. The stateroom you call home during the journey is just as alluring as the rest of the package. Here’s a look at some of the lavish accommodations offered by some of the world’s most popular cruise lines.

Ranging between 1,559 square feet and 1,640 square feet (not including the balconies), the Royal Loft Suites on Royal Caribbean’s Oasis of the Seas, Anthem of the Sea, Quantum of the Seas, and Allure of the Seas are two floors high with two to three large balconies containing a dining area and whirlpool spa. The suite can fit up to six guests and has a baby grand piano, media room, dry bar and bathroom on the main floor.
