For a vessel that entered service in June 2004, this ship does not look like a year older. Everything is in pristine condition, areas are very well-maintained. Its design is extremely sleek, decorations contemporary, yet sophisticated. The ship is absolutely massive but the "centrum" at the heart of the ship makes it impossible for you to get lost as it will serve as your point of reference. Be warned that to be on a diet whilst on board is next to impossible (and personally, not sensible) considering the variety of food that they have to offer; from scrumptious meals to delectable cakes and puddings. I also think that their thirst-quenching supply of traditional lemonade is worth a special mention. A selection of ice cream is also available. I find it imperative to bring up that all these are included in the price. Apart from the elegant main dining room, there are alternative dining venues, some with a small cover charge, if you fancy a change in menu or ambiance. There are plenty of bars to choose from to suit your mood and alcoholic requirements. Worry not about those extra calories intake as there is a fully-equipped fitness centre to burn them all off (this is optional, of course). A health and beauty spa is available for those who want pampering and relaxation. Entertainment is abundant for all ages, stretching from West End-style production to fully supervised programmes for children (you can still afford to have a romantic dinner even if you are travelling with your kiddiewinks). Service is abolutely flawless. There is also a bar for all of you sports aficionados. Do not let a silly match (yes, I dare to call them silly) stop you from boarding as this will also be available to view on a large plasma screen (again, it works the same way as the ones you have at home, the referee cannot hear you!). Another proof that RCI thinks outside the box is the "gyro table". This is a revolutionary pool table that adjusts at the speed of light to offset any ship motion and maintain a stable playing surface. I must admit, I am a fan. All in all, there is something for everybody. The innovation is unparalleled which I think is a major criterion in choosing which cruise line to go with. Without a doubt, Royal Caribbean delivers in style.
