The ship will feature luxury accommodations, including the Horizon Owner’s Suites, which offer wrap-around balconies for breathtaking views. These suites are perfect for those seeking extra space or for multi-generational families. Star Seeker will have a variety of suite categories to accommodate different preferences, including suites with large verandas or the new Infinity Suites, designed with sliding windows that let in fresh sea breezes​.
