Last week, Royal Caribbean International shared the name of its newest ship: Hero of the Seas.
Now, the cruise line is also offering a look at some of the spaces that will be available onboard its fourth Icon Class ship, which is slated to debut in August 2027.
One that’s getting a lot of buzz is the Ultimate Family Treehouse, a first-of-its-kind accommodation designed for families and groups.
The cruise line recently unveiled a social media video rendering of the space, which can accommodate up to 12 travelers.
“Sign me up,” one person commented on the post. “This is amazing!! Would love this for my kids,” another person wrote.
The space includes a private whirlpool on the balcony; indoor and outdoor dining areas; a rooftop terrace with a private whirlpool and ocean views; and a two-deck teen room that includes a game room and a secret hideout spot.
The Ultimate Family Treehouse is just one of the new cabin types available on Hero of the Seas. Others include the Surfside Family Suites and Family Infinite Ocean View Balconies.
For a more luxurious stay, travelers can choose a Royal Loft Suite or an Icon Loft Suite.
