Silversea has introduced four distinct categories for its 17 suite types. The new Oceanview, Veranda, Residence, and Villa categories will provide their own set of comforts, with every suite continuing to include Silversea's signature benefits. Residence and Villa guests will also gain a new selection of benefits, extending the brand’s personalized service across Silversea's intimate fleet. The new benefits apply to sailings departing on or after January 1, 2027.

17 Suite Types, Four New Categories

Across its intimate, all-suite fleet, Silversea's 17 suite types are now organized into four categories, with each building on the included benefits. These new benefits build on Silversea’s existing inclusions, such as butler service, 24-hour in-suite dining, complimentary Wi-Fi, multiple dining options, beverages, port fees, taxes, and gratuities:

• Oceanview Category: Panorama and Vista suites, featuring large windows with expansive ocean views.
   
• Veranda Category: Premium Veranda, Deluxe Veranda, Superior Veranda, Classic Veranda, and Veranda suites, each with a private balcony extending the living space outdoors.
   
• Residence Category: Junior Grand, Signature, Silver, Premium Medallion, and Medallion suites, offering separate bedroom and living spaces for guests seeking additional room.
   
• Villa Category: Otium, Master, Owner's, Grand, and Royal suites, the brand's most expansive accommodations, with generous living spaces and large terraces.

A New Tier of Care: Enhanced Benefits for Residence and Villa Categories

Oceanview and Veranda guests will continue to enjoy the personalized, all-inclusive service standard offered across all Silversea suites. Effective for sailings departing on or after January 1, 2027, Residence and Villa guests will also receive an expanded set of benefits:

RESIDENCE CATEGORY:
