Relaxing, fun Bahama cruise
Apr 15th, 2024
We had a great cruise. Wasn’t real happy with our beach getaway in Freeport. Beach water was rather rocky and difficult to enter and exit. Enjoyed the shoppes in Nassau and we loved CocoCay.
Great Trip after extraordinary port change
After the bridge collapse in Baltimore we weren't sure if we would sail or from where. RCL did a good job in quickly selecting Norfolk and providing either transportation for previous cruise or in detailing parking and other information for the April 4th cruise. The ship and crew were what we expected and the four ports visited gave us an option to get off the shop to either tour or walk around. The new terminal in Nassau if a vast improvement over the old one and provides some safe activities without going outside of the fences to the hawkers on the way to Bay Street.
Fantastic cruise on Vision of the Seas
Apr 6th, 2024
Even though I heard noises in the cabin and air conditioning not the best still had a fantastic time. Fellow cruisers were nice and talkative. I love sailing on this size ship and hope that RC will maybe make a new smaller size ship.
Great Cruise. Amazing People.
Mar 27th, 2024
Great relaxing cruise with outstanding and friendly personnel. Doing the same ship in Nov.
Awesome first cruise with RC
Mar 26th, 2024
This was our first time on RC and we will be sailing again with you for sure
Nice St Patrick's Day Cruise
Ship in decent shape. Our room was in need of serious plumbing fix with shower water pressure and temp. Was disappointed with the casino closures on day 1 and day 8 (cruise days) and no postings, esp for day 8. Did not like only having an early show on day 1 and day 8 either with eating at 7pm. Not normally handled this way. MDR was very good, but seems like the Windjammer has reduced selections and variety.

I spent $2,000 for 7 nights in a 179-square-foot room on one of the world's largest cruise ships. Take a look inside my cabin.
- I booked a stateroom on Royal Caribbean's Wonder of the Seas, one of the biggest cruise ships.
- For $2,000 a week, the 179-square-foot cabin had a private bathroom, a king-size bed, and a view.
- I thought I'd feel cramped in the room, but it had everything I needed and left no space unused.
In April 2022, I cruised on board Royal Caribbean's Wonder of the Seas . At the time, it was the largest cruise ship in the world , but the title has since been replaced by Royal Caribbean's Icon of the Seas .
During my voyage, the ship sailed to Roatán, Honduras; Cozumel and Costa Maya in Mexico; and Royal Caribbean's private island in the Bahamas .
For $2,000, I spent seven nights in an ocean-view stateroom on deck eight. The cruise was on sale, as it was originally priced at $3,000. Take a look inside the 179-square-foot space.
My room was a mid-tier cabin at the front of deck eight.
I booked a mid-tier room — a step above interior staterooms , which have no window. It's a category below staterooms with a balcony , and two steps below a suite.
My cabin was on the same deck as Central Park, an outdoor space with 20,000 plants.
I thought it was the most relaxing area on the ship, so I enjoyed being close by.
When I stepped inside my stateroom, I was surprised at how big it felt.
Right away, I thought the cabin made great use of a small space.
To operate most of the electricity in the room, I had to insert my room key into a slot on the wall.
I appreciated the energy-saving system.
On one side of the room, I had a mirror and a desk with several outlets to charge electronics with USB, American, and European ports.
I thought the desk was useful for eating, as well as storing daily flyers about the day's events.
Next to the desk, a set of drawers included a cabinet with a minifridge inside.
The desk drawers were mostly empty aside from a hair dryer, which I didn't end up using.
Across from the desk, I had a couch positioned in between two closets.
Inside each closet, I found a rack of hangers, shelving, and a small safe. I thought it was plenty of space for a weeklong journey
Next to the couch and desk area, a small bathroom used clever storage hacks, like placing the trash can and toilet paper under the counter.
In the bathroom, there were two glasses, a bar of soap, and a two-in-one hair and body wash.
At the top of the shower, a pullout clothing line was useful for drying my bathing suits.
Each night, my stateroom attendant replenished towels and brought flyers and schedules for the next day.
Sometimes, the towels were folded creatively to look like animals.
I noticed that my king-size bed at the back of the room was actually two twin beds pushed together.
All Royal Caribbean cabins come with this configuration, according to its website , so they may be separated for additional guests. I often woke up in the crevice.
A large flat-screen TV was mounted across from the bed with storage hooks below.
Skinny nightstands on either side of the bed held lamps, charging ports, and a room phone on one side.
Because I booked an ocean-view room, I was able to look out over the front of the ship from a window above my bed.
The window was equipped with an electronic shade that could be opened during the day for grand views and closed when I was ready to sleep.
While I thought the room might have been a tight space for a couple with a lot of luggage or a family, it was just right for me.
And watching the sun rise over the Caribbean Sea from the comfort of my room was the best part.

These Travelers Have a Secret: They Love Cheap Cruises on Old Ships
R oyal Caribbean’s Icon of the Seas, a cruise ship over five times as large as the Titanic, is preparing for its inaugural voyage in late January. A subset of die-hard passengers are saying they would much prefer the opposite of that mammoth boat.
Picking an older, smaller cruise might make for less fancy travel, but it comes with obvious advantages. Lower demand for the aged vessels in cruise lines’ fleets can prompt some big-deal savings. Some of these ships sail more exotic itineraries, and passengers enjoy greater attention from crew members without feeling so crowded. A cruise ship can start to show its age at around 15 years.
“Each ship has its own personality,” says Mari Marks, a luxury-travel adviser with Protravel International in Beverly Hills, Calif. “Because not everybody is going to love being with over 5,000 of their new best friends.”
Royal Caribbean operates the six largest cruise ships in the world. The Icon is now the largest. It can hold more than 7,000 passengers and comes with everything from an ice-skating arena to six waterslides.
A well-traveled boat
A few years ago, cruise regular and Las Vegas resident David Di Vito went on his first cruise aboard the Oasis of the Seas, which was once the world’s largest cruise vessel. Since then he has sailed on multiple Royal Caribbean ships. His favorite is the less-heralded Vision of the Seas.
Vision of the Seas has been in service since 1998. Di Vito and his fiancée, Marina Vail, appreciated that they weren’t overwhelmed by crowds and could do the activities they wanted.
While the older vessel didn’t have the many niceties of the Oasis of the Seas, they enjoyed themselves. Di Vito liked grabbing a deck chair and watching the ocean. Vail peeled off for trivia games and scavenger hunts.
Fewer people also meant better service, Di Vito, a 34-year-old sound engineer, says. He recalls that the Wi-Fi was more reliable, guest services was more responsive and booking excursions at ports of call wasn’t a hassle.
Such trips are often also cheaper. A seven-night sailing on the Icon of the Seas started at around $2,536 a person on a recent search for an interior stateroom before applying discounts. A three-night cruise to the Bahamas from Port Canaveral, Fla., in early September on Royal Caribbean’s Utopia of the Seas, which will have its maiden voyage in July, started at $827 a person for an interior cabin before discounts.
Meanwhile, a four-night cruise to Cozumel, Mexico, out of Tampa, Fla., on the Grandeur of the Seas, the cruise line’s oldest ship, around that same time started at $519 a person for an interior room before discounts.
Royal Caribbean didn’t respond to requests for comment.
The big get bigger
Other cruise companies have introduced gargantuan vessels in recent years. MSC Cruises entered the MSC World Europa into service in December 2022. The ship can hold more than 6,700 passengers and more than 2,100 crew members.
Carnival’s flagship, the Celebration, had its maiden voyage in late 2022. That ship has a maximum capacity above 6,500 passengers—and boasts the first roller coaster at sea.
“Larger ships offer more operational efficiencies, more revenue-generating opportunities and more space to offer a variety of accommodations, dining, entertainment and recreational features,” says Chris Chiames, chief communications officer for Carnival Cruise Line.
A cruise’s cost generally depends on factors including the length of the trip and demand for the itinerary, travel advisers say. But the ship’s age can also factor in.
Phil Perrey, a minister from St. Charles, Mo., says he and his wife wanted to sail on one of Royal Caribbean’s newer and larger ships. By the time they finished pricing it out, they realized they could pay at least $300 less to sail on the Celebrity Equinox, which first entered service nearly 15 years ago.
“And that’s for a higher-end cruise line,” Perrey says.
A ship pro tip
When booking cruises, Perrey takes an approach recommended by many travel advisers. Instead of looking at when a ship first sailed, he checks when it was last refurbished during what is known as a dry dock.
“A 10-year-old ship that hasn’t been through dry dock is going to feel older than a 20-year-old ship that got out of dry dock two years ago,” he says.
Carnival uses the dry-dock process to install features on its more-mature ships, such as the adult-only Serenity section, Chiames says. Three of its ships—the Sunshine, the Radiance and the Sunrise—were renamed following extensive renovations.
Older ships can come with drawbacks, even if they are recently renovated. They tend to have smaller rooms and fewer cabins with balconies, says Rob Clabbers, president of Q Cruise and Travel in Chicago.
Keeping older ships in a fleet enables cruise lines to serve a wider array of destinations. Newer megaships can be too big to dock in certain harbors, including Tahiti.
“We intentionally place our smaller ships in more exotic destinations with longer, port-intensive itineraries that offer a more immersive experience that our guests love,” says David Herrera, president of Norwegian Cruise Line.
Adam Carnevale, a small-business owner from Hickory, N.C., has sailed most often with Carnival. He and his wife regularly take advantage of offers they get since they frequent the casino.
Many of his cruises have been aboard the Carnival Sunshine. The ship sails out of Charleston, S.C., about four hours from home. They also appreciate the hometown vibe of the ship: They frequently recognize passengers and crew members from previous sailings.
Carnevale was less enthusiastic about a cruise he took out of Miami on the Celebration last summer. He says he found the food and service not up to the same level of quality as what he experienced on the Sunshine. He also wasn’t wowed by the ship’s many amenities, which he compared with an ice-cream cone overloaded with toppings.
“You don’t have to give me all the fancy stuff,” he says. “Sometimes vanilla is good.”

Spectrum of the Seas Marks Royal Caribbean’s Return to China
- April 26, 2024
Marking Royal Caribbean International’s return to China after a four-year hiatus, the Spectrum of the Seas arrived in Shanghai today.
Ending an eight-night repositioning cruise that started in Singapore, the 2019-built vessel docked at the Shanghai Baoshan International Cruise Terminal after visits to Vietnam and Hong Kong.
The Spectrum of the Seas is now set to serve the Chinese market with a series of four- and five-night cruises departing from Shanghai.
Visiting Japan and South Korea, the itineraries feature visits to Naha, Jeju, Nagasaki, Fukuoka, Kumamoto, Kagoshima, Ishigaki and more.
The ship’s schedule also features six- and seven-night cruises that sail to additional Japanese destinations, such as Yokohama, Kobe and Osaka.
Following its seven-month program in Mainland China, the Spectrum of the Seas is set to reposition to Hong Kong in December.
Part of the five-ship Quantum Class, the Spectrum of the Seas was delivered by the Meyer Werft shipyard in April 2019 . Custom-designed to sail in Asia, the 4,200-guest ship was initially based in China on a year-round basis.
Signature features of the ship include North Star, a glass-enclosed gondola of sorts that suspends guests over the ship and the ocean, as well as the FlowRider surf simulator and RipCord by iFly skydiving simulator.
Marking five years in service this month, the Spectrum recently underwent its first major drydock at a shipyard in Singapore .
Building upon its return to the Far East, Royal Caribbean International is adding a second ship to its China lineup next year .
Sailing from the Port of Tianjin, the Ovation of the Seas is set to join the Spectrum of the Seas starting in May 2025.
Royal Caribbean follows MSC Cruises as the second international cruise brand to sail back to China, which marked its return to the country in March
