To say that cruise ship accommodations have evolved since the first staterooms were designed would be an understatement. With Royal Caribbean International's next endeavor, Oasis of the Seas, the world's largest and most revolutionary cruise ship, the urban living concept takes to the high seas with the introduction of industry-first loft suites. The addition of the contemporary two-level suites will redefine cruise ship accommodations with vibrant, ocean-inspired colors in a sophisticated setting.

The lofts will be the highest accommodations at sea and will offer spectacular views of the ocean with floor to ceiling double-height windows to ensure the view will be enjoyed from every vantage point. Other features among these coveted 28 lofts will be a unique modern design dotted with abstract, modern art pieces, spacious living areas on the lower level with contemporary detailing, and a private balcony with sun chairs and stunning views to help guests unwind.

Each loft, which will measure 545 square feet (51 square meters) or larger when combined, and will be fitted in contemporary décor with a Caribbean influence. The impressive design will include an upper-level bedroom that overlooks the living area below and extended ocean views. Beds will be outfitted with white, luxurious duvets complemented by tropical blue and green accents that tie in to the loft's natural surroundings. The lofts will feature LCD televisions, separate vanity areas, a guest bathroom downstairs and master bathroom upstairs featuring his and her shower heads, fog-free mirrors, and limestone mosaic tile accents.
