Millennium-Class Ships: Penthouse Suites

On a cool, cloudy day at sea, the most popular spot is often the outdoor hot tub. On those days, you're better off in a Penthouse Suite, so you won't have to rub wet elbows with Larry the Salesman from Boise and his charming wife, Louise, who, you know, like to party with other couples. Instead you'll have a 1,098-square-foot deck and whirlpool tub just for yourselves. The suites are big, with enough rooms to get lost in. There's the foyer, dining room, butler's pantry; a living room with a baby grand piano and wet bar; the master bedroom with a dressing room; and (deep breath!) a master bath with a whirlpool tub and separate shower; plus, a second bathroom with shower. "Um, honey? Where are you, anyway?"

Best detail: As in a state-of-the-art hotel room, everything is automated or motorized, from the draperies and lighting to the security system. The suite also comes with flat-screen TVs (two of 'em) and a PC connected to the Internet, in case you want to e-mail pics of yourself in your Jacuzzi to your friends back home. Or Larry and Louise.

Set sail: Summer, Alaska and Europe; winter, the South Pacific and Caribbean
