I Stayed In The Cheapest "Suite" on a Luxury Cruise Ship

Published June 8, 2026


Description

I’ve just disembarked a cruise where I spent 3 days in the cheapest cabin on a luxury yacht. It was the most expensive cruise I’ve ever booked, coming in at around $860 per night for this room for two people.

I’ve wanted to try a cruise like this for years, but these luxury cruises are normally way outside my budget. When I spotted the short sailing though I thought that this would be my chance to give it a go, the 4 day cruise was the same price I’d usually pay for a 2 week cruise with a mainstream cruise line. The cruise line did say that that every cabin onboard was technically a suite, and this was a yacht so my expectations were really high, much higher than normal.

I knew that I’d have to stay in the cheapest cabin to make it work but I’m used to sailing in the cheapest cabins on the big budget cruise ships so I thought that it would be fine.

I was hopeful that the cheapest cabin on a luxury yacht would still feel luxurious and that it would have some extra perks. I did worry that I’d end up disappointed though, especially given the age of the ship because she is really quite old by cruise ship standards. I hoped that the room would feel spacious and that we wouldn’t feel a lot of movement in the cabin because small ships do tend to move around more and sadly I do get seasick.
