Oceania Cruises has lifted the curtain on the suite collection for Oceania Sonata, the first ship in its all‑new Sonata Class, debuting in August 2027. Designed for travellers who want more space, more privacy and more personalised service, the 1,390‑guest ship will dedicate around one‑third of all accommodations to suites, making it the most suite‑focused vessel in the fleet to date.
A Suite-Heavy Ship Built for Space and Service
Measuring 86,000 gross tons and carrying just 1,390 guests, Oceania Sonata will offer one of the highest space‑per‑guest ratios in the premium‑luxury segment. Roughly 33% of accommodations are suites, spanning six categories from new Horizon Suites through to expansive, two‑bedroom Owner’s Suites.
Across the board, guests can expect:
- Dedicated butler service in every suite category
- Oceania’s next‑generation Tranquility Beds
- Aquamar Spa‑inspired luxury bath amenities
- In‑suite illy coffee machines in Owner’s, Vista, Oceania and Horizon Suites
The aim, according to the line, is to blend residential-style comfort with the brand’s hallmark culinary and destination focus, giving guests more room to unwind between port‑intensive itineraries.
Two-Bedroom Owner’s Suites With Wraparound Views

At the top of the accommodation pyramid are four Owner’s Suites, each measuring more than 2,500 square feet and positioned on the aft corners of Decks 10 and 11.
Key features include:
- 180‑degree ocean views from wraparound verandas
- Two bedrooms – a first for Oceania Cruises – including:
- A primary suite with king‑size bed and spa‑style, marble‑clad bathroom
- A guest bedroom with queen‑size bed, private bathroom and floor‑to‑ceiling glass doors leading to its own veranda
- Generous living and dining spaces finished in a refined, residential style
These crown‑jewel suites are designed for guests travelling with family or friends who want apartment‑like space while still enjoying all the benefits of a ship.Vista Suites: Aft-Facing Retreats With Spa Bathrooms

Just below the Owner’s Suites are eight Vista Suites, each ranging from around 1,500 to more than 1,900 square feet and also located at the aft of the ship.
Highlights include:
- Expansive verandas with uninterrupted wake views
- Plush living and dining areas accented with marble and bespoke furnishings
- An indulgent primary bathroom with double vanities, a “rainforest” shower and porcelain soaking tub
For travellers who love aft‑facing perspectives and a spa‑like bathroom, Vista Suites offer a more intimate alternative to the two‑bedroom Owners while still delivering serious square footage.
Oceania Suites: Flowing Spaces Up to 1,400+ Square Feet

The 16 Oceania Suites sit in the heart of the collection, with footprints between 1,000 and more than 1,400 square feet.
Each suite features:
- Seamlessly connected living, dining and bedroom zones
- A private teak veranda
- King‑size bed and marble‑clad bathroom
These suites are designed for guests who want the feel of a contemporary city apartment at sea, with enough room to entertain but a slightly more understated footprint than the aft‑corner giants.
All-New Horizon Suites: Aspirational Luxury at 600+ Square Feet

Brand new for Oceania Sonata are 50 Horizon Suites, created for “aspirational luxury” guests looking to step up from a Penthouse without jumping all the way to Oceania or Vista categories.
Positioned between Penthouse and Oceania Suites, Horizon Suites offer over 600 square feet and feature:
- Distinct living and bedroom areas
- A walk‑through wardrobe room
- An oversized veranda furnished with lounge seating
For many travellers, this category will likely hit the sweet spot between space, price and perks, particularly on longer itineraries where storage and outdoor space matter.
Penthouse & Penthouse Deluxe Suites: Expanded Comfort

Rounding out the suite lineup are:
- 63 Penthouse Suites at approximately 426 square feet
- 82 new Penthouse Deluxe Suites at approximately 488 square feet
Both categories come with:
- An oversized living area
- Private veranda
- Butler service and enhanced amenities compared with standard staterooms
These suites are likely to be some of the most sought‑after entry points into the “suite life” on Sonata, especially for solo travellers or couples who prioritise service and layout over sheer size.
From the two‑bedroom Owner’s Suites right down to the new Penthouse Deluxe category, Oceania Sonata’s suite collection clearly signals a new chapter for the line: more space, more serenity and more thoughtfully tailored ways to sail.
For guests, it means the “suite life” is no longer a niche perk but a core part of the ship’s DNA, whether you are sharing an aft‑corner apartment at sea with family or simply upgrading to a Horizon or Penthouse suite for that extra breathing room. When Sonata debuts in August 2027, these next‑generation suites will not just be places to sleep between port calls, but refined, residential‑style retreats that anchor the entire onboard experience.
