The most luxurious liners. The largest cruise ships in the world

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

In 1912, the Titanic was the largest cruise ship in the world. Currently, he won't even be in the top 50. Cruise ships fall into two categories: those that cost a fortune due to their enormous size, and those that are smaller and offer a more relaxing experience. Most of them are so large that they 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. Developers of cruise ships take care to meet the diverse needs of vacationers: from people traveling alone to young couples and families with small 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 surfing simulators.

When it comes to luxury cruises, Royal Caribbean is undoubtedly the leader. The company is the proud owner of two airliners, which are considered the largest and most expensive passenger ships in the world.

Tour operators, the media and everyone who will subsequently sell trips to this liner are invited to the first flight.

Harmony of the Seas the Seas) is actually the largest cruise ship today with a capacity of 8,200 people, of which 2,200 are crew members.

But the most impressive thing is not the measurements, but the filling of the liner - Helipad, swimming pools, water slides, a casino, a theater, an ice skating rink, a garden with 12 thousand different plants and much, much more. There is even a Bionic bar on board, where robots work as waiters. Let's see what it looks like inside...

General plans of the liner. This is a really huge thing, a giant Noah’s Ark with a displacement of 227,500 tons:

We left the port of Barcelona. Two fire ships saw us off: in honor of the first voyage, they staged a “salute” of water cannons:

The first place you go on a cruise is, of course, your cabin. I won’t give the footage, I’ll just mention that my cabin had a separate dressing room:

Common areas of the ship. On the right in the photo is a giant head sculpture that rotates in layers in different directions:

There are pedestrian streets on board. There is a complete feeling that it is not a ship that has gone out to sea, but a piece of the mainland. There are a lot of people. After a number of incidents on cruises, Royal Caribbean installed an advanced facial recognition system that can, if necessary, identify each passenger in a crowd:

Many sculptures and works of modern art:

Let's go up to the upper decks. There are two types of decks - indoor, comfortable in windy weather, and outdoor:

10.

There are 16 decks on board. 6 main pools and 10 giant Jacuzzis:

The upper deck is replete with public areas:

12.

Plenty of sunbeds. Pay attention to the slides behind the pool:

13.

On the other side of the golf course:

14.

Waves for surfing:

15.

Rope crossing at seven floors:

There is a huge aqua theater at the stern of the ship. There are two pipes leading down from the upper deck, through which you can go down with your clothes on. It feels very fast, very scary and very dark. You overcome almost 30 meters of height in 13 seconds, making two 360-degree turns along the way:

17.

To the right of the aquatheater is a pedestrian area called Central Park:

18.

19.

Naturally, there is a gym, and it is gigantic. Lots of training equipment and equipment:

20.

There are 20 restaurants on board Harmony of the Seas. The main one occupies three floors, where daily dinners are held:

22.

And this is the same Bionic bar where robots work. The mechanical arms have 30 alcohol components in their arsenal. The range of cocktails they can make is endless. One cocktail takes 30 seconds. Looks fantastic:

23.

Another memorable restaurant is called “Wonderland” and is based on the famous work of Lewis Carroll:

24.

Hall decoration:

25.

26.

Instead of a menu, they bring an empty picture that needs to be painted with water. After these manipulations, words appear. It might seem like a small thing, but it leaves a lasting impression:

27.

Molecular cuisine restaurant. The dish is called “Vegetable Garden”, and the “ground” is made from bread with the addition of cuttlefish ink:

28.

A dessert made from a ball that is poured over hot chocolate. After a minute, the ball melts, revealing the ice cream inside. Delicious:

29.

Every week, the liner's restaurants consume 4,500 kg of chicken and almost 7,000 kg of beef. Total on board 4900 seats in restaurants and bars. The assortment of desserts again confused me:

30.

Central Park has dozens of stores to suit every budget:

31.

You won't be bored in the evening. Rather, on the contrary, you will need to run from one view to another:

32.

At the theater there is a Broadway production of “Grease”. The film of the same name, based on this musical, made Travolta a star already in 1978:

33.

Ice show. Just pay attention to the quality of the costumes that were prepared for the performance.

The ship also has a golf course, a surfing simulator and a skating rink where ice and circus shows take place.

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 casual cruiser that the most expensive cabins are sold out first, but keep in mind that there are far fewer luxury suites on ships than regular staterooms, so there's a real battle being waged for the extra space and elite amenities that come with such suites. If you have a large family, or are used to going on a cruise with a large group, such a large space will definitely come in handy.

Another great advantage of living in a suite, in addition to the luxury ambiance, is VIP service. You can rightfully count on concierge services, priority boarding and disembarkation, assistance in booking various restaurants, spas and excursions. Personal butler service is available in most luxury cabins, with butlers available to help with everything from dry cleaning and luggage unpacking to daily sandwich delivery and spa reservations.

Today's cruise lines offer a greater variety of cruise suites than ever before, but there are some truly unique cabins that will blow your mind. In this article we will highlight our personal favorites among the most stunning, prestigious and elegant cabins on the seas and oceans. (Please note: the cost of a suite depends on the length of the route and its duration. The prices indicated in the table are approximate and are subject to change).
