Studio Cabin Closet and Bed

These small cabins (100 square feet) are tiny, but perfect for the solo traveler. Having access to the private, keycard-access Studio Lounge is an extra bonus.

The 128 studio cabins on the Norwegian Epic are in the interior of the ship on decks 11 and 12. The hallway of the cabins is lit with funky lighting, and each cabin has a large one-way porthole window overlooking the hallway. The Studio cabins have a full-sized bed, large closet, shower and toilet, and plenty of storage space. The mood lighting adds a lot to the studio cabin theme.

One of the best features of the Studio cabins is the private Studio Lounge, where the guests staying in the Studio cabins can gather for breakfast, drinks, or just socializing. It's a popular place for solo travelers to get together in the morning to plan their day, and again in the evening to share their experiences.​

Given a large number of solo travelers, this solo traveler concept may soon be appearing on other cruise ships.

What's not to love about these Penthouse Suites? They have a round bed, gorgeous view of the ship's wake, and (best of all) keycard access to the exclusive Villas Courtyard, Concierge Lounge, private restaurant, and bar.
