What I would actually book
A standard Balcony cabin is the sensible default for most couples — the largest category on the ship at 753 cabins. Families and anyone wanting more space should price a Mini-Suite before assuming they need a full suite. If the Sky Suite is specifically what draws you to this ship, book well ahead — there are only 2 per ship.
Balcony
753 cabins, the largest category on the ship, per Princess’s current fact sheet.
Mini-Suite
374 cabins — price this before assuming you need a full suite.
Sky Suite
Just 2 per ship — two bedrooms, roughly 1,800+ sq. ft., the largest stateroom category in this class.
1,830 total
Per Princess’s current fact sheet — 340 interior, 753 balcony, 311 deluxe balcony, 6 Premium Oceanview, 374 mini-suite, 46 suites (44 with private balconies plus 2 Sky Suites).
38 total, plus 100 connecting staterooms
Per Princess’s current fact sheet.
A confirmed Window Suite (S7) grade exists too
Current Princess brochure and deck-plan material lists it separately from the fact sheet’s suite total — a no-balcony category alongside the flagship Sky Suite this ship introduced.
The category ladder, bottom to top
Sky Princess’s ladder runs Interior, a small Premium Oceanview category, Balcony (standard and Deluxe), Mini-Suite and Reserve Collection Mini-Suite, and five Reserve Collection suite grades including a confirmed Window Suite and the flagship Sky Suite — a longer ladder than the original Royal Class trio runs, and one grade deeper than this page previously credited.
| Family | Category | Approx. size | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Interior | Interior (IA–IF) | ~150–180 sq. ft. | 340 cabins, per Princess’s current fact sheet — no window |
| Oceanview | Premium Oceanview | ~150–180 sq. ft. | Just 6 cabins — a category the original Royal/Regal/Majestic trio doesn’t sell at all |
| Balcony | Balcony (BA–BF, plus obstructed BV/BW/BY) | ~185–217 sq. ft. + balcony | The largest category on the ship — 753 cabins, per Princess’s current fact sheet |
| Deluxe Balcony | Deluxe Balcony (DA–DF, D4, DZ, plus obstructed DV/DW) | ~217–232 sq. ft. + balcony | 311 cabins |
| Mini-Suite | Mini-Suite (MA–MF) | ~285–425 sq. ft. | 374 cabins, per Princess’s current fact sheet |
| Mini-Suite | Reserve Collection Mini-Suite (M1/M6) | ~285–425 sq. ft. | Same footprint as a standard Mini-Suite, bundled with Reserve Collection perks |
| Suite | Owner’s Suite (S2), Penthouse Suite (S3–S4), Premium Suite (S5) | ~470–800 sq. ft. | Princess’s current fact sheet reports 44 suites with private balconies on this ship as a combined figure — it doesn’t break out a per-grade count across Owner’s, Penthouse and Premium |
| Suite | Window Suite (S7) | Not specified in the material we reviewed — no balcony | Confirmed in current Princess brochure and deck-plan material for this ship. Not broken out as its own line on Princess’s stateroom fact sheet — see the warn box below for how we handled the gap |
| Sky Suite | Sky Suite (S0) | Roughly 1,800+ sq. ft., two bedrooms | Just 2 on this ship — the flagship category Sky Princess introduced to the class in 2019 |
Princess’s own current fact sheet lists 1,830 total guest staterooms on this ship (340 interior, 753 balcony, 311 deluxe balcony, 6 Premium Oceanview, 374 mini-suite, 44 suites with private balconies, 2 Sky Suites — the non-suite categories plus 44+2 sum cleanly to 1,830). Separately, current Princess brochure and deck-plan material confirms a Window Suite (S7) grade on this ship, which has no balcony. Princess doesn’t clearly state whether Window Suite cabins are counted inside that 44-suite figure, sit outside the published 1,830 total, or are drawn from another category — we’re not going to invent a reconciliation Princess itself hasn’t published. Treat the 1,830 total and the Window Suite’s existence as two separately-confirmed facts, not a fully reconciled inventory. A third-party aggregator separately claims this ship has no Oceanview cabins at all, which conflicts with Princess’s own 6-cabin figure — we treat the Princess primary source as authoritative there.
Described by outside coverage (The Points Guy) as Princess’s largest and most elaborate stateroom category, dwarfing the roughly 800 sq. ft. Penthouse Suite that was previously this class’s top category. Just 2 exist on this ship — book well ahead if it’s the reason you’re shopping this ship.
The value baseline on this ship
Interior cabins run roughly 150–180 sq. ft. — genuinely windowless. This ship carries 340 of them. Unlike the original Royal Class trio, there’s a small Oceanview category to step up into before Balcony.
A small 6-cabin Oceanview category exists on this ship as a step up — but it’s a very small inventory, so Balcony is the more realistic daylight upgrade to plan around.
A small category the original trio doesn’t have
Just 6 Premium Oceanview cabins exist on this ship — a window, no private balcony. This category doesn’t exist at all on Royal, Regal or Majestic Princess, where Balcony is the next step up from Interior.
With only 6 cabins in this category, price it early and have a Balcony cabin as your backup plan.
The default choice, with a genuine Deluxe step-up
Balcony is the largest category on this ship at 753 cabins, running roughly 185–217 sq. ft. plus a balcony — more inventory than any ship in the original trio. A distinct Deluxe Balcony tier sits above it — 311 cabins, roughly 217–232 sq. ft. Obstructed-view grades sit at a lower price with a lifeboat or machinery obstruction.
Price the gap directly before assuming Deluxe Balcony is automatically worth it.
A sitting-area step up, including a direct route into Reserve Collection
Mini-Suite runs roughly 285–425 sq. ft., adding a sitting area over a Balcony cabin without full suite pricing — 374 cabins on this ship. One specific grade, M1, is designated a Reserve Collection Mini-Suite.
A standard Mini-Suite
The sitting-area upgrade over a Balcony cabin, at a fare below the suite tiers — price this before assuming you need a full suite.
A Reserve Collection Mini-Suite (M1) specifically
The same physical footprint as a standard Mini-Suite, bundled with Reserve Collection perks — confirm which specific cabins carry this designation before booking if those perks are the reason you’re shopping this category.
Five suite grades, including a Window Suite this page previously missed
Reserve Collection on this ship covers five named grades: Owner’s Suite (S2), Penthouse Suite (S3–S4), Premium Suite (S5), Window Suite (S7), and the flagship Sky Suite (S0). Princess’s stateroom fact sheet reports 44 suites with private balconies plus 2 Sky Suites — a combined 46 — but doesn’t clearly state how the separately-confirmed, no-balcony Window Suite fits into that count; we present both published figures rather than forcing a reconciliation Princess itself hasn’t made. Confirmed perks across the suite tier: priority embarkation and disembarkation, a complimentary welcome bottle of wine or in-room mini-bar setup, evening canapés on request, upgraded terry bathrobes, and access to a private Concierge Lounge. Reserve Dining is a designated, exclusive area within the main dining room — this ship has no separate, dedicated Reserve Collection restaurant.
When the Sky Suite earns the premium
You want the single largest stateroom category in this entire class — roughly 1,800+ sq. ft. with two bedrooms. Only 2 exist on this ship, so book early.
When the standard Premium Suite (S5) is the smarter buy
You want real suite space and Reserve Collection perks without the Sky Suite’s price jump.
When the Window Suite (S7) is worth asking about
A no-balcony suite grade confirmed in current Princess brochure and deck-plan material — price it directly against a balconied Premium Suite rather than assuming it’s cheaper or smaller, since we couldn’t independently confirm its exact size or fare position.
This ship doesn’t have one — the Concierge Lounge and Reserve Dining area are real amenities, but not a separate restaurant the way Sanctuary Collection has on Sun and Star Princess.
Princess’s published figure for this ship
Princess’s own current fact sheet lists 38 wheelchair-accessible staterooms on Sky Princess, plus 100 connecting staterooms fleet-planners may also want to know about.
Confirm the exact accessible cabin number, category and door width directly with Princess or a travel advisor well ahead of your sailing.
The Lido deck, the theater, and the SeaWalk
Sky Princess has ship-specific cabin-selection guidance available from third-party sources, consistent with the general pattern documented across this class.
Cabins around S114–S221, M310–M421 and M701–M725
Reported early-morning noise from lounger-moving on the deck above.
Cabins around E123–E227 (Emerald Deck)
Reported show/entertainment noise, potentially until around 11pm on show nights.
Cabins near self-service laundry (M622–M623, R611–R612)
Reported foot-traffic noise.
Cabins around L109, L110, L114, L115 and most of Deck 8
Obstructed balcony views from nearby lifeboats or machinery.
A roughly 60-foot enclosed glass-floor walkway on Deck 16, about 128 feet above the water. One source claims Sky Princess’s SeaWalk design added a solid section specifically to protect balcony privacy below, unlike earlier ships in the class — we could not independently verify this specific claim against a Princess primary source, so treat it as an unconfirmed, single-sourced detail rather than a confirmed feature.
These specific cabin numbers come from a third-party cabin-selection guide (CruiseMummy) rather than Princess’s own documentation. Treat the numbers as plausible and worth checking against the current deck plan, not as independently confirmed.
What does the next dollar actually buy?
A real, if very small, Oceanview rung exists here before Balcony — the original trio skips straight from Interior to Balcony.
A modest but real size step — price the gap directly.
A genuine sitting-area upgrade, and — if it’s the M1 Reserve Collection grade specifically — the most accessible route into Reserve Collection perks without full suite pricing.
Reserve Collection perks, priority dining and Concierge Lounge access.
A no-balcony suite grade confirmed in current Princess brochure and deck-plan material — Princess doesn’t clearly publish how it’s priced or sized relative to the balconied Premium Suite, so ask directly rather than assume it’s strictly better or worse.
The single biggest jump in this class — roughly 1,800+ sq. ft. and two bedrooms, versus roughly 470–800 sq. ft. for the standard suite grades. Just 2 exist on this ship.

Sky Princess cabin questions
What is the best cabin on Sky Princess?
A standard Balcony cabin is the easiest right answer for most couples. Families and anyone wanting more space should price a Mini-Suite before assuming they need a full suite.
What is the Sky Suite?
A flagship, two-bedroom suite category roughly 1,800+ sq. ft. — described by outside coverage as Princess’s largest and most elaborate stateroom category. Sky Princess introduced it in 2019, and only 2 exist per ship.
Does Sky Princess have a Window Suite?
Yes. Current Princess brochure and deck-plan material confirms a Window Suite (S7) grade on this ship — a suite with no balcony. Princess’s stateroom fact sheet doesn’t break this out as a separate line from its "44 suites with private balconies" figure, so we can’t say exactly how many Window Suite cabins exist or how they factor into the published total; we present both facts rather than inventing a reconciliation.
Does Sky Princess have Oceanview cabins?
A small standalone Premium Oceanview category exists — just 6 cabins — which the original Royal/Regal/Majestic trio doesn’t offer at all.
Does Sky Princess have a dedicated Reserve Collection restaurant?
No. Reserve Dining is a designated area of the main dining room, and there’s a private Concierge Lounge for suite guests, but no separate suite-only restaurant.
How many staterooms does Sky Princess have?
1,830 total guest staterooms, per Princess’s current fact sheet — 340 interior, 753 balcony, 311 deluxe balcony, 6 Premium Oceanview, 374 mini-suite, and suites: 44 with private balconies plus 2 Sky Suites. Current Princess brochure and deck-plan material separately confirms a Window Suite (S7) grade on this ship; Princess doesn’t clearly state how those cabins relate to the fact-sheet suite total, so we present both facts rather than reconciling them.
How many wheelchair-accessible cabins does Sky Princess have?
38, per Princess’s current fact sheet, plus 100 connecting staterooms.
Where can I find the official Sky Princess deck plan?
Princess publishes the current deck plan for this ship at princess.com/deckPlans.do?shipCode=YP — use it to confirm the exact cabin number, deck and any obstruction before booking. A direct link is included above.
Original research — verify specifics before booking
This page is Seabound’s own research into Princess’s published stateroom data, cross-checked against third-party cruise sources current as of August 2026 — it isn’t a locked or pre-audited document.
Princess’s current fact sheet reports 44 suites with private balconies and 2 Sky Suites on this ship, while separate current Princess brochure and deck-plan material confirms a Window Suite (S7) grade with no balcony. Princess does not clearly publish how the Window Suite figure relates to the 44-suite total, and we corrected an earlier version of this page that had silently equated "44 suites with private balconies" with "44 standard suites" and omitted Window Suite entirely — we now present all three published facts side by side rather than inventing a reconciliation Princess itself hasn’t made.
A third-party aggregator claims this ship has no Oceanview cabins at all, conflicting with Princess’s own fact sheet, which lists 6 Premium Oceanview cabins. We treat the Princess primary source as authoritative.
Gross tonnage is reported inconsistently — Princess’s own materials give a rounded 141,000, while Wikipedia states a more precise 145,281. Not cabin-relevant, but flagged rather than silently resolved.
The claim that this ship’s SeaWalk design added a solid privacy section is single-sourced from a non-Princess blog and could not be independently verified — presented as unconfirmed.
Suite-grade-to-letter-code mapping is consistent across sources but wasn’t independently confirmed against this ship’s own Princess booking engine, with the exception of the Window Suite/S7 code, which is confirmed directly in current Princess brochure and deck-plan material for this ship.
Specific noisy-cabin numbers in the location section trace to a single third-party travel-tip site (CruiseMummy) we could not independently cross-verify against a second source.
The named-tier category structure, the addition of a small Premium Oceanview category and the Sky Suite versus the original trio, the Window Suite (S7) grade confirmed in current Princess brochure and deck-plan material, Reserve Collection’s role as this ship’s suite-tier program, the private Concierge Lounge, and the current stateroom and accessible-cabin totals (1,830 staterooms, 38 accessible) are each confirmed on Princess’s own current published materials.
The Sky Suite’s introduction with this ship and its roughly 1,800+ sq. ft. two-bedroom scale are each corroborated by more than one independent source.
