The 12 best all-inclusive cruises for 2024.

When most of the extra costs are paid before you sail, you can truly enjoy your cruise.

The Best All-Inclusive Cruises

Sit back and relax on an all-inclusive cruise vacation.

When it comes to all-inclusive cruises, there are a few different options:

• Luxury cruise lines: All-inclusive cruise rates are available on luxury lines like Regent Seven Seas and Silversea. While more expensive than traditional cruise rates , the fares cover nearly everything, including door-to-door transfers, luxurious suite accommodations, specialty dining , premium alcoholic beverages and excursions. Plus, you don't need to show your cruise card every time you order a latte or a pre-dinner cocktail. You'll disembark the ship with very few, if any, additional charges on your final bill.
• Cruise lines with inclusive pricing: Alternatively, you can consider an upscale cruise line like Viking, which offers fares with more-inclusive pricing and some of the amenities found on board the fully inclusive lines. However, you'll still have to budget for a few expenses, such as immersive excursions and alcoholic beverages beyond wine or beer at lunch and dinner.
• Packages and add-ons: Other cruise lines like Oceania, Windstar and Norwegian offer add-on drink packages and other promos so you can create a more all-inclusive experience.

After comparing the costs between a truly all-inclusive cruise and a sailing with package pricing for the extras, the total price may be closer than you think.

Nature lovers will discover the Caribbean is a never-ending show of wonders—from lush mountain peaks and rainforests with hidden waterfalls to dazzling coral reefs bustling with tropical fish.

Culture seekers and history buffs will be excited to explore ancient Maya ruins, colonial towns, and sampling some of the local wine, beer, or rum. A Celebrity Caribbean vacation is the ultimate experience in paradise—both on board and off.

Best All-Inclusive Cruises for 2024-2025: Top 7 Cruise Lines

Once you go all-inclusive it’s hard to go back.  Here are 7 of the best all-inclusive cruises for 2024 and 2025 for those who don’t want to be “nickel-and-dimed”.

The world of all-inclusive cruises could be just what you need if you’re tired of those pesky incidental charges adding up. We’re going to look at the very best options for cruises that offer almost everything at one up-front cost.

The listed price of a cruise on a mainstream line can be a little deceiving. It can also feel like a deal too good to be true. That’s because sometimes it is. Once you add in all the additional charges for specialty dining, beverages, WiFi, gratuity, and shore excursions you begin to see the real cost of a cruise that’s not so inclusive.

While an all-inclusive cruise may cost more, it’s certainly worth it for those who are tired of getting out their cruise card every time they get thirsty.

Without a doubt, if you want a worry-free cruise getaway, all-inclusive is the way to go. There’s something mentally relaxing about knowing the all-in price up front. And not having to continuously worry about how much each drink, excursion, or activity costs is a perk in itself.

In this article we are going to look at all-inclusive cruises and what we think are the best cruise lines to include all those coveted amenities in the cruise fare.

Related: Find the best cruise line for you

Note: Some of the more mainstream lines have begun offering packages to make voyages more all-inclusive as well. Cruise lines like Norwegian Cruise Line, Princess Cruises , and Holland America Line have packages that can be added to your cruise to avoid the “nickel-and-diming” experience.

Best All-Inclusive Cruise Lines

Regent seven seas cruises.

This is the cruise line that even calls itself “ the only truly all-inclusive luxury cruise line “.

For those who can afford it, a stellar quality of service and inclusions await. Regent has one of the best guest-to-crew ratios at sea, boasting an average of 1:1.5 on most cruises.

Regent Seven Seas Cruises also offers some of the most luxurious accommodations at sea, with spacious suites that come equipped with fine linens, marble bathrooms, and private balconies. You’ll feel like you’re staying in a five-star hotel, and you’ll always have an epic ocean view.

Even the smallest suite on The Seven Seas Explorer offers 370 sq. feet of space. The largest suite on this ship is the Regent Suite with an astounding 4,000+ sq. feet to enjoy.

Every accommodation onboard these ships is a suite and 98% of them have a private balcony. While each stateroom has a personal attendant, butler service is reserved for the penthouse guests onboard.

The fleet of Regent Seven Seas ships are classified as medium-sized but the company emphasizes that they have a small ship mentality. Of the soon to be six ships in the fleet none of them carry over 750 passengers , making a 55,000 gross ton vessel feel even more roomy.

The smallest cruise ship with Regent has a capacity of only 490 passengers for those who want an even more intimate experience on a smaller vessel.

There is an understated opulence in the decor of these ships, with Picasso paintings, Italian marble, and crystal chandeliers to welcome passengers.

And with over 500 ports of call the cruise line visits, Regent can take you anywhere in the world, all while only having to unpack once.

What’s included in a Regent Seven Seas Cruise?

• Multiple specialty dining venues including dining in your suite
• Beverages including premium drinks
• Laundry services. You can let the crew do your laundry for you or there is a self-service station, all complimentary.
• Pre-paid gratuities
• Free Wi-Fi internet
• Onboard enrichment that includes classes and activities (arobics, yoga, spinning classes)
• Unlimited shore excursions . You can do more than one in a day if you have the energy for it.
• Almost every Regent cruise includes airfare and for intercontinental cruises business class is typically included as well.
• Most suite categories will include a night at a highly-rated pre-cruise hotel.
• Transfers to and from the ship are included.
• Steam room and sauna in locker rooms

There are some extras you can add on to your bill if you’d like. Spa services such as massages, facials, and pedicures will incur an extra expense. Some cooking classes in the state-of-the-art culinary center will cost extra as well.

Scenic Luxury Cruises

Scenic Luxury Cruises and Tours is a privately owned company that has been around since 1986. The company, known mostly for their river cruises, with over 15 river cruise ships in service, has recently moved into the ocean cruise space with their signature yachts.

The first ocean ship, Scenic Eclipse was launched in 2018 with Scenice Eclipse II being launched in 2023.

Both of these sister ocean vessels have a gross tonnage of 17,545, have 200 crew, can carry 228 guests and are 544 feet long.

The small, intimate yachts are designed according to Polar Code Rules but have various sailing itineraries in other exotic parts of the world as well.

Sailings include embarkation ports in New Zealand, Argentina, Iceland, Japan, Portugal and other places and sail anywhere from the Caribbean to Europe, with an emphasis on polar regions like Antarctica.

There is a helicopter on the ship –actually there are two of them for redundancy– that is used for shore excursions as well and holds 6 passengers.  This does come at an additional cost.

What’s included in a Scenic cruise?

• Complimentary signature shore excursions
• Unlimited top-shelf drinks and beverages
• Private butler for every cabin
• Free usage of e-bikes
• All on-board gratuities are included
• All transfers to and from the ship
• Speciality dining

What if all that opulence and fancy luxury isn’t for you, but you still want an all-inclusive cruise and the chance to learn something about the world along the way? Whether it’s a river cruise or ocean cruise, Viking could fit the bill, all while allowing you to leave your cruise card in your pocket for just about everything. In this section we’ll focus more on Viking Ocean cruises, but the line also has river and expedition ships as well.

By the strictest standards Viking isn’t an all-inclusive cruise line, but since what they do include is so exhaustive it had to make the list.

Viking is fairly new to the ocean side of cruising. Having operated river cruises across Europe for decades, the company has successfully taken the ocean cruise industry by storm. For the last 7 years Viking has won the prestigious Travel + Leisure award for #1 cruise line in both river and ocean categories.

Related: Things you won’t have to pay extra for on Viking

What’s unique about Viking?

There is a refined simplicity about how Viking operates their cruises. Every single ocean ship in the fleet is identical. Each ship has 465 cabins and has the same layout, number of decks, restaurants, etc. This means going back on a Viking cruise kind of feels like going back home, as there is an instant familiarity. The line is Norwegian-owned and their ships have a decidedly Scandinavian design to them.

Only passengers 18 and older can sail on a Viking ship, so this is definitely a cruise line for adults only. The heated pools both on the main pool deck and in the aft section of the ship never feel crowded, and the covering over the main pool area means you can take a swim no matter the weather outside.

There is a real focus on destinations and enrichment on a Viking cruise. While you won’t find a casino onboard you will find many insightful talks about ports of call and historical significance. Besides Broadway style shows in the main theater there are interesting lectures given by experts in their field. This is, after all, “the thinking person’s cruise”.

If you’re all about rest and relaxation you will also find what I think is probably the best thermal suite at sea, all included in your fare. A large thermal pool, dry sauna, steam room, and even a snow room can help ease a tired body after a long day of excursions.

Speaking of excursions, Viking gives you a free excursion at just about every single port of call. If you’d like to pay extra for a non-included excursion you can do that as well though. Since a majority of passengers do at least the free shore excursion it’s always fun when back on the ship to recount how the day went with fellow passengers.

There are two specialty dining venues onboard their ocean cruise ships: The Chef’s Table and my personal favorite Manfredi’s . You will need a reservation for each but they are complimentary. I can’t say enough about how much I enjoyed the quality of food on every Viking cruise I’ve been on.

What’s included in a Viking Ocean cruise?

• Specialty coffee and tea
• In-suite mini bar, replenished every day
• Daily afternoon tea at Wintergarden
• 1 included shore excursion at most ports
• Use of spa facilities and thermal suite
• Self-service laundry facilities
• Transfer bus services
• Airport transfers when airfare is purchased through My Viking Air

Some of the items not included in the fare price will be premium drinks outside of meal times, spa services, and gratuities. You can purchase an airfare package along with your cruise at discount but airfare is not automatically included in the price of your cruise.

Silversea Cruises

For explorers wanting to sail on a cruise to the far reaches of the earth while dining on the finest cuisine, Silversea Cruises is more than qualified for the task.

The smaller 28,000 and 40,000 gross ton ships that have fewer than 600 guests allow for travel to remote and exotic locations all over the world. Along with their 5 expedition ships, Silversea sails to over 900 destinations . This includes Antarctica, Greenland, Africa and the Indian Ocean, the Mediterranean, the Galapagos Islands, the South Pacific, and almost anywhere you can imagine.

Every guestroom on a Silversea cruise ship is a suite and 90% of them have private verandas. The bathrooms have marble countertops and the sheets and linens are of the finest quality. This is the only cruise line that offers butler service in every suite and category, and these butlers are all professionally trained to make your cruise as perfect as can be.

Onboard there are various amenities such as fitness centers, spas, pools, casinos, theaters and more.  And once your appetite has been worked up there are many dining venues available.  Almost every restaurant is included in the cruise fare and instead of having one large dining room you can dine at a different style specialty restaurant each night.

What’s included in a Silversea cruise?

Silversea Cruises takes a different approach to all-inclusive cruises. They allow you to select from two different packages so you decide what you want included and what you can do without. The ultra luxury cruise line owned by Royal Caribbean Group offers two programs called Door-to-Door all-inclusive and Port-to-Port all-inclusive, so let’s take a look at what is offered in each.

Door-to-Door

• Private executive transfers
• International flights
• Airport Transfers
• All food and beverages
• Butler service
• Shore excursions
• Expedition in-country air and hotel

Port-to-Port

Gratuities are also included in the cruise fare so that’s one less thing to worry about while on your vacation. The complimentary drinks are also extended to the minibar in each suite and you can tell your butler which types of beverages you prefer. Even 24-hour room service is available at no extra charge.

Passengers are able to book one shore excursion at each port free of charge, and there are many additional excursions you can pay extra for if you would like.

Seabourn Cruise Line

Known for its personalized service, each passenger on Seabourn Cruise Line is treated like royalty on board. From spacious suites to intimate social areas, the ships are designed to give you a sense of privacy and allow you to fully relax and unwind.

But the luxury doesn’t stop there. Seabourn Cruise Line offers a wide range of top-notch amenities, including award-winning cuisine, spas, fitness centers, bars and lounges, swimming pools, and live entertainment. And in select ports of call, Seabourn even offers complimentary shore excursions so you can fully immerse yourself in the culture and history of your destination. With Seabourn, you’ll feel like a VIP every step of the way.

You’ll have access to a variety of dining options, including The Restaurant for main dining, The Colonnade for informal dining, and The Grill with Thomas Keller (where you can enjoy a meal once during your cruise). Plus, there’s even a Sushi restaurant on board.

Of course, there are a few exceptions to this all-inclusive policy. Access to The Retreat, a luxurious area complete with cabanas, loungers, a hot tub, and a massage area, comes at an additional cost. And while Wi-Fi is complementary you will want to upgrade to the stream package if you want to do anything other than check your email and browse.

Seabourn boasts one of the most modern fleets in the luxury cruise category and offers intimate ships that have a private club atmosphere.

Each suite includes a Personal Suite Host and Attendant to help with anything passengers need. Each suite also has a walk-in closet, marble bathrooms with double vanities, and a dining table for some in-suite dining.

Built to explore, these smaller ships sail to all seven continents and will often visit hidden harbors that larger ships could never access.

For the more adventurous passengers all Seabourn ships have an aft water sports marina that guests can take advantage of when the ship is anchored. From here activities like kayaking, long boarding, and even wind-surfing can be enjoyed.

What’s included in a Seabourn cruise?

• Free Wi-Fi Internet for browsing (for streaming there is an extra charge but Penthouse and Premium suite guests will receive this for free)
• All beverages (except some premium alcoholic drinks)
• All dining (including caviar)
• Fitness classes
• Self-service laundry
• In-suite movies
• 24-hour room service
• Access to water sports marina

Shore excursions are not included in the price and can be paid for separately online before your cruise.

Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection

The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection is a new venture that brings the luxury and refinement of Ritz-Carlton hotels to the open seas. Currently, there is only one ship in the fleet, with the next two set to join in 2024 and 2025. The current super-yacht offers 148 suites, some of which are over 1,000 square feet in size, and has a crew of 246 to serve the 298 passengers on board. This results in an excellent crew-to-passenger ratio.

Voyages are available for 7-10 nights and travel to destinations such as the Mediterranean, Northern Europe, Canada, and the Caribbean. There are even a few “crossing” voyages that take passengers on a 12 or 13 night journey across the Atlantic.

Expect authentic, one-of-a-kind experiences that can’t be found anywhere else. This is no ordinary cruise ship – it’s a superyacht, complete with dedicated personal assistants in every suite and a Concierge Ashore program that can tailor private tours to your exact preferences.

What’s included on a Ritz Carlton yacht?

• A dedicated personal concierge
• All dining venues onboard except one
• Wi-Fi internet
• Water sports activities on the aft marina

There are a few additional fees for certain services. For example, the S.E.A. restaurant offers a seven-course menu that is paired with wine, but it comes with a $285 cover charge. The Ritz Kids Club costs $45 per child for a three-hour stay. WiFi is included in the price of your stay, but you can upgrade to a faster speed for an additional fee of $38 per day.

While there is no casino or large theater with musicals showing every night, there is live music played on some of the open decks through the voyage.

Royal Caribbean Cruise Deals Guide

When it comes to planning the ultimate getaway, there are so many reasons why cruise vacations rank among the most popular travel options. First of all, they’re completely stress-free. On a cruise vacation, all the planning is taken care of by the cruise line — from the destinations you sail to and the shore excursions available at each port, to a full range of entertainment and activities happening onboard every day. If you’re not a planner, or if the only things you’re looking to focus on during your getaway is savoring great food, relaxing, and soaking up the sights, cruise vacations are the way to go. A cruise vacation is also a great option if you’re traveling with the whole family, especially when you opt for a Royal Caribbean cruise. All of the ships in this cruise line’s fleet offer family-friendly experiences for guests of all ages. Even little ones will find plenty of ways to play with spaces and activities designed for tots to tweens. One of the top reasons savvy travelers love cruising, though, is because of the incredible value it offers. With Royal Caribbean, your cruise fare includes access to most of the ship’s attractions, select dining venues and all of the entertainment onboard. If you want to make your experience even more all-inclusive, you can opt for beverage and specialty dining packages that cover drinks and dinner at some of the most exclusive restaurants in the fleet. On top of all that, the cruise line presents frequent limited-time offers and seasonal sales, making it easy to score big savings when booking your vacation.

I’m ready to start planning my cruise — how can I score the best deals?

Whether you’re looking to book a short getaway or a longer adventure to far-flung destinations, Royal Caribbean makes it easy to save big on everything from your cruise fare to special experiences onboard and onshore. The first step to making sure you get the best deals is to join the cruise line’s email list. Once you’ve signed up, you’ll receive regular updates on all the latest offers, like deals by destination , kids sail free promotions and flash sales. The savings don’t end when you book your cruise, though. Once you’ve made a reservation, you’ll also receive notifications about special offers for onboard experiences — like discounts on beverage and specialty dining packages, shore excursions, spa services, and more via My Royal Cruise .

Does it pay to plan ahead, or should I wait until the last minute?  

It’s an age-old question — does the early bird really get the worm, or are there perks to taking a “wait-and-see” approach? If you’re booking a cruise vacation, you’ll find there are benefits to both strategies. Planning ahead is a great way to score big savings , as Royal Caribbean often runs early saver deals to guests booking well in advance. It’s also pretty safe to assume prices usually go up as availability goes down the closer you get to your sail date, so booking ahead is a surefire way to lock in a great rate. That said, booking a cruise at the last minute can also yield some unexpected savings — but only if the itinerary you’re interested in hasn’t sold out yet.

If you can be flexible when it comes to your travel dates, you’ll have your pick of unbeatable savings. Popular vacation dates — like the holidays , spring break , summer vacation and week long cruises — sometimes see the highest prices (though you might get lucky with a seasonal sale). If you have the flexibility to travel during the shoulder season or off season, you’ll likely enjoy big savings on popular stateroom categories , like Balconies and even Suites. The deals don’t only apply to your cruise fare, though. Once you’ve booked your vacation, you could easily unlock discounts and specials on add-ons, including beverage and dining packages , Voom® high speed internet, shore excursions, and amazing experiences not included in your cruise fare — like a day of pampering at Vitality SM Spa, a behind-the-scenes tour of the ship’s galley followed by brunch, VIP seating at shows, and much more.

How can I maximize the value of my cruise vacation?

There are plenty of ways to get more bang for your buck when you sail on a Royal Caribbean cruise. Every ship in the fleet offers a range of delicious complimentary dining options , but you can dig into even more crave-worthy flavor by purchasing a Specialty Dining Package for less ahead of your cruise. Add a Specialty Beverage Package — which includes unlimited alcoholic beverages, soda, and more — and your experience is as close to all-inclusive as it gets. And with so many complimentary shows and attractions onboard, you can easily fill every sea day without spending a single dollar extra.

Royal Caribbean also offers deals based on departure ports  and destinations, so if you’re a flexible traveler looking for great savings, you can plan your next vacation around which itineraries are on sale. Just check your email or visit RoyalCaribbean.com/cruise-deals to stay up to date on promotions, sales and special offers. You can even browse sailings and deals by homeport, destination and season, so you can rest assured you’re getting the best possible deal no matter when or where in the world you choose to set sai.

St Maarten Has a Big Cruise Forecast for 2025

It’s one of the top cruise destinations in the region: St Maarten, which has been steadily seeing its numbers return to pre-pandemic levels buoyed by a stream of major cruise lines.

Now, the island’s port has even bigger goals for next year: 1.5 million cruise passengers. 

That’s the forecast from the Port St Maarten Group, which says the growth is part of a broader growth push for the industry. 

“We are on a track of growth as international cruise industry figures show that cruise tourism is resilient and rebounding faster than other forms of travel and tourism,” said Alexander Gumbs, CEO of Port St Maarten Group. 

Since Covid, St Maarten’s numbers have been growing “annually,” Gumbs said. 

“This is a great rebound,” he said. “It shows confidence that the cruise industry has in us as a destination.”

The island is hosting the upcoming annual conference of the Florida-Caribbean Cruise Association, which is set for late October . 

More than 800 stakeholders will be on hand.
