So which ship has the largest suite afloat?

The Penthouse Suites onboard Summit seem to be the biggest, but can you find bigger?

Source: Celebrity.com

Stateroom: 1,432 sq. ft.
Veranda: 1,098 sq. ft.
Total: 2,520 sq. ft.

I also found the "6 Bedroom Apartment Residence Plan" for The World which is 4,184 sq. ft.

It's just obscenely huge, but there has to be bigger ones out there somewhere!

QM2 hast larger ones - especially if the suites astern are connected to one unit.
Courtyard suites on NCL / Star SuperstarVirgo Class ships are also much larger.

I dont have the exact figures but I beleive the NCL Star/Dawn/Jewel have two suites each that are a little over 5,000 square feet with balconies included. I got to see one when I toured the Dawn. It was very big! With three bedrooms and two bathrooms.

The NORWEGIAN STAR & DAWN each have 2 Garden Villa Suites of 5750 square feet. This includes a living room, dining room, and 3 staterooms each with private bath. There is a huge private courtyard and roof-top sun deck. The Garden Suites on the JEWEL are a bit smaller, at 4390 square feet.
