Traveling on the ocean is the perfect vacation. However, it is best, of course, to rest in luxury and complete security. There is nothing more relaxing and mesmerizing than being on board a large ship. Since the dawn of the cruise industry, ships have competed in popularity, size and luxury all the time. We offer an overview of the most expensive cruise ships that can give an unforgettable vacation.

In 1912, the Titanic was the largest cruise ship in the world. Currently, he will not even enter the top 50. Cruise ships fall into two categories: those that cost a fortune due to their sheer size, and those that are smaller and offer a more relaxing experience. Most of them are so large that their own can be compared with entire villages. These are real floating cities in the full sense of the word, offering the same wide range of services as any real locality. Cruise ship designers take care to meet the most diverse needs of vacationers: from people traveling alone, to young couples and families with young children. On such cruise ships there are bars, clubs, casinos, various cafes and restaurants, spa and fitness centers, swimming pools, dance floors, theme parks and even surf simulators.

1. Allure of the Seas: $1.5 billion

When a cruise goes on sale, two categories of cabins sell out first: the cheapest and the most expensive luxury suites. It may surprise the inexperienced cruiser that the most expensive cabins are sold first, but be aware that there are far fewer luxury suites on ships than regular cabins, so there is a real war going on for the extra space and elitist features that come with such suites. If you have a large family, or if you are used to going on a cruise with a large company, such a large space will definitely come in handy.

Another great advantage of living in a suite, apart from the luxurious environment, is the VIP service. You can rightfully count on concierge services, priority pickup and drop-off, assistance in booking various restaurants, spas and excursions. Personal butler services are available in most suites, butlers can help with everything from dry cleaning and luggage unpacking to daily sandwich delivery and spa bookings.

Today, cruise lines offer more variety of cruise suites than ever before, but there are simply unique cabins that can amaze the imagination. In this article, we will share our personal favorites among the most stunning, prestigious and elegant cabins on the seas and oceans. (Please note: the cost of the suite depends on the length of the route and its duration. The prices indicated in the table are approximate and subject to change).
