Trip Planning Cruises Cruise Lines Norwegian Breakaway Cruise Ship - Cabins and Suites By Linda Garrison Linda Garrison Linda Paull Garrison is a travel writer who has taken over 150 cruises and spent over 1,100 days at sea. Travel's editorial guidelines Updated on June 6, 2019 Photo: Lewis William Harris - Transport Photography/Wikimedia Commons/CC BY 2.0 The 4000-passenger Norwegian Breakaway of Norwegian Cruise Line has 28 different types of cabins and suite accommodations in 42 categories. Seven of the categories are in The Haven, the Norwegian Breakaway's luxurious and exclusive boutique cruise ship hotel. The other 21 categories are diverse and spread throughout 8 decks of the mega-ship. These staterooms range in size (and price) from mini-suites for spa lovers or families to standard balcony cabins to oceanview and finally to the least expensive on the ship--inside cabins. Like the Norwegian Escape and Norwegian Epic, the Norwegian Breakaway has inside studio cabins that are designed for the solo traveler. The tiny studio cabins were designed and priced for the solo traveler. All the studios are on the inside but have a porthole window looking into the hallway. These cabins are designed for cleaning up, dressing, and sleeping. Guests staying in the studios have access to the studio lounge. 01 of 46 Studio Cabin Linda Garrison 02 of 46 Studio Cabin Sink Linda Garrison 03 of 46 Studio Cabin Lounge Stairwell Linda Garrison 04 of 46 Studio Cabin Lounge Linda Garrison 05 of 46 Studio Cabin Portholes Linda Garrison The Studio Cabins are all inside and do not have views of the sea.
