Icon of the Seas Room Prices by Cabin Type and Season

Which room you pick on Icon of the Seas matters less than when you sail. That's the biggest takeaway from 42,645 tracked fares across every cabin type and season.

A fall balcony costs $241/night. A spring balcony costs $320/night. Same ship, same cabin category, $79/night difference — $1,106 more for two guests over 7 nights. That seasonal swing is bigger than the gap between inside and ocean view cabins.

This is the full room-by-room, season-by-season breakdown. Every number comes from actual tracked fares, not list prices.

Every Cabin Type, Every Season

Here's Icon of the Seas pricing across all 20 combinations of cabin type and season, based on 7-night sailings from Miami.

Median per-person, per-night rates. Based on 42,645 price snapshots across 123 sailings from Miami.

Three things jump out immediately.

Fall is cheapest across the board. Every cabin type hits its lowest median price in fall. Inside drops to $200/night, balcony to $241, suites to $409. If your schedule allows fall travel, that's where the value is.

Spring commands the highest premiums. Spring pricing runs 17-25% above fall depending on cabin type. Suites see the steepest spring premium — $551 versus $409 in fall, a $142/night gap.

Summer and winter cluster together for most cabin types. Inside, ocean view, and balcony all land within $15-22/night of each other in summer versus winter. The exception is suites, where summer ($522) runs $44/night above winter ($478).

Inside Cabins

Inside cabins are the most stable category on Icon of the Seas. Price swings are minimal, and the booking window barely matters.

Based on 10,424 price snapshots across 7-night sailings.

The fall-to-summer spread is just $51/night. That's the narrowest seasonal range of any cabin type. Inside pricing is predictable — you won't see dramatic swings regardless of when you book or when you sail.

Volatility is the lowest on the ship. Our data shows an average coefficient of variation of 4.9% for inside cabins. For context, balcony runs 8.7% and suites 12.4%. If you want a straightforward booking decision, inside delivers that.

Floor prices are interesting. The absolute lowest tracked inside fare is $137/night during holiday season — but that's a far-out booking (late 2027). Realistic near-term floors sit around $164/night for fall and $188/night for winter.

What a 7-Night Inside Costs for Two Guests

Taxes, port fees, and auto-gratuities estimated at $550 for two guests.

Ocean View Cabins

Ocean view is Icon's most volatile mid-tier category. Seasonal swings are wider than inside, and the pricing relationship to balcony shifts depending on when you sail.

Based on 6,053 price snapshots across 7-night sailings.

The fall-to-spring spread is $86/night — the widest of any cabin type by percentage. That's a 42% jump from fall to spring. Ocean view pricing is more season-sensitive than inside or even balcony.

In fall, ocean view is only $3/night more than inside. That's the best value window for this cabin type. You're essentially paying inside pricing for a window. In spring, the gap widens to $40/night.

In winter, ocean view and balcony nearly converge. Winter ocean view is $268/night versus $275/night for balcony — a $7 gap. The balcony upgrade to a private outdoor space costs just $49 per person for a 7-night sailing.

Balcony Cabins

Balcony is the most popular cabin category on Icon of the Seas, and the one where pricing context matters most. This is where most people overpay — or find real value.

Based on 7,793 price snapshots across 7-night sailings.

Fall balcony at $241/night is Icon's sweet spot. It's $49/night cheaper than summer and $79/night cheaper than spring. For two guests over 7 nights, that's $686-$1,106 in savings for the same ship and the same cabin type.

Holiday pricing has the widest P25-to-P75 range. The spread between the 25th and 75th percentile is $84/night during holiday season, versus $38/night in fall. Holiday pricing is less predictable — the specific sailing date and how far out you book matter more.

The floor prices tell an important story. The lowest tracked balcony fare is $178/night during holiday — which sounds like a deal until you realize it was likely a pricing anomaly or a far-out booking. The realistic fall floor is $199/night. Anything under $219/night (the P25 threshold) is genuinely good.

What Counts as a Good Balcony Price

If you're at or below the P25 threshold for your season, you've done well. Don't wait for a bigger drop — Icon balconies rarely see them. We break down price drop frequency in our full Icon pricing guide.

Suites

Suites are where Icon pricing gets volatile and where the biggest savings — or overpayments — happen. The seasonal spread is $142/night, and the gap between a good price and a bad one can exceed $300/night.

Based on 7,115 price snapshots across 7-night sailings. Excludes specialty suites (Ultimate Family Suite, Icon Loft, etc.).

Spring suites are aggressively priced. The P75 hits $736/night — a 34% jump above the median. A spring suite at the 75th percentile costs two guests $10,304 for the fare alone. At the 25th percentile, the same category runs $7,298. That's a $3,006 gap within the same season.

Fall suites are the tightest band. The P25-to-P75 range is just $20/night ($398-$418). Fall suite pricing is remarkably predictable — you're going to pay close to $409/night, give or take.

Suite volatility is the highest on the ship. Average coefficient of variation runs 12.4%, with maximum swings of $5,013 on individual sailings. That extreme figure comes from specialty suite repricing, but even standard suites see average price swings of $435 between their tracked low and high.

Suite Pricing vs. Star of the Seas

If you're considering a suite, the Icon vs. Star decision isn't close. We cover the full comparison in our Icon vs Star price analysis, but the headline: Star of the Seas suites run 20-39% more than Icon suites in every season except holiday. A spring suite on Star costs $216/night more than the same category on Icon. For Star-specific P25/P75 thresholds, see the Star of the Seas room prices guide.

The Icon Premium Over the Rest of the Fleet

Icon doesn't just cost more than other Royal Caribbean ships. It costs substantially more — and the premium varies by cabin type.

RC fleet average excludes Icon and Star of the Seas. Fall season, 7-night sailings.

Inside cabins carry the steepest relative premium. An inside cabin on Icon costs 55% more than the Royal Caribbean fleet average. That's because RC's older ships offer inside cabins for as low as $87-95/night — prices Icon will never touch.

Suites carry the smallest relative premium. At 27% above fleet average, Icon suites are actually a more reasonable value proposition compared to the rest of the fleet than Icon inside cabins are.

This makes sense — suite guests are already paying for premium space, and Icon's suites genuinely offer more than older ships. Whether that premium is justified depends on what you're comparing against — we break that down in our data-backed analysis of whether Icon is worth it.

Which Room Should You Book?

This isn't a one-size-fits-all answer. It depends on what you're optimizing for.

If you're budget-conscious: Book an inside cabin in fall. At $200/night, it's the lowest-cost entry point to the world's largest cruise ship. Pricing is stable and predictable. You won't stress about timing.

If you want a balcony without overpaying: Book fall or winter. Fall balcony at $241/night and winter at $275/night are the value seasons. Spring at $320/night is a 33% premium over fall for the same room. For the full seasonal timing breakdown, see when to book Icon of the Seas.

If you're considering ocean view: Check the balcony gap for your season. In winter, ocean view ($268) and balcony ($275) are just $7 apart. Pay the extra $49 per person for a 7-night sailing and get a private outdoor space. In fall, ocean view at $203/night represents better standalone value — only $3 more than inside.

If you want a suite: Book fall on Icon specifically. Fall suites at $409/night are $142/night cheaper than spring and $82-216/night cheaper than the equivalent Star of the Seas suite. This is the most price-sensitive cabin category, and the ship and season you pick makes a real difference.

Bottom Line

Icon of the Seas room prices range from $200/night for a fall inside cabin to $551/night for a spring suite — with 20 distinct price points depending on your cabin type and season. The season you choose has a bigger impact on price than the cabin type upgrade in many cases.

Fall is the value season across the board. Spring commands the steepest premiums. And no matter what you book, Icon runs 27-55% above the rest of Royal Caribbean's fleet — a premium that's held steady since we started tracking.
