Traveled with3 adults and 2 children. Joined in Orlando. As usual with Royal Caribbean, we thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of the cruise, accommodation, dining, facilities and excursions. Caribbean is a fantastic area, so much to see and do and such different islands and cultures. Would highly recommend

Anthem Of The Seas is a beautiful ship was on her maiden cruise 1915 and she has been kept looking up to date and clean with lovely friendly staff and with a variety of eating places to dine both casual and dressy venues.Plenty of sports throughout the day and great entertainment in the evenings.I did 11nights canaries cruise weather was not so good some days but that is not royal caribbean fault .Good service at customer service desk and very helpful setting up wifi.Would sail with her again in the not to distant future one of my favourite ships.

Our first cruise since the pandemic so the health protocols were different but perfectly acceptable under the circumstances and certainly not very onerous so we were more than happy to comply. The onboard service was superb and access to public spaces was smooth and easy, although this was probably because there were only 1,600 passengers on a 4,000+ capacity ship and we'll probably never have an experience like it again. I was pretty happy with the presentation and quality of the food but I have had better on the same ship before. This was the first time we'd cruised around Britain and I would recommend it even though the weather cannot be guaranteed. All in all it was an excellent cruise and my wife and I both thoroughly enjoyed it.

Excellent cruise to Norway. Only complaints were minor:- Unable to get in to see We will rock You despite queuing both times it was on. Kids unable to do sky diving as always fully booked despite trying to book immediately each evening at 8pm when it was supposedly open to do so. (There was always availability if you paid but was quite expensive.) Three shows in main theatre some evenings whilst non on other nights! Food was superb as was the service. Staff very friendly and efficient. Cabins Stewards were excellent and cabin kept spotless. We were a family of 13 (6 children, 6 parents and 1 grandparent) and everyone had a great time.

Well what can I say, from say from start to finish we were made to feel welcome. I have never been on a cruise before and was a little dubious but I really don't know why. It really was one of the best holidays I've had. Thank you so much to all the staff onboard, we all noted how hard you all work. It was so lovely to be greeted all the time, good morning or good evening. There really was a personal touch to everything. Have to say a very big thank you to Waiter Roel, Assistant Waiter Gopal, Johnathan at the restaurant reception and Gede our room attendant. Thank you all so much, you have given us some wonderful memories we will remember forever. I can not wait to book the next cruise now. x

This was a first cruise for my daughter and I for a significant birthday treat. We loved being on Anthem. The best part was the adult only solarium, which was exactly what we needed to relax. I would go early and watch the sun rise over the sea and then have breakfast in the solarium bistro. I thought this was bliss. Our room was ergonomic, comfortable and quiet. We loved it. It was floor 10 and aft. Although we loved it, we were hardly in it and next time may just have a cheaper internal room (with a virtual balcony). It was my 60th birthday and my daughter arranged for a (vegan) cake to be made and this happened and staff sang to me and it was all really lovely. Despite this, the most negative experience of RCI was that the food was not up to scratch. My daughter is fully vegan and I mostly eat vegan but can accept vegetarian. We booked RCI because of you tube videos of their vegan foods ( we wer impressed by what we saw in Windjammer). However, when we arrived on the ship, we learned that they had scrapped this approach to vegan food (a directive from head office because there was too much waste, we wer told). This made it very difficult to find anything to eat in the Windjammer. In fact, it actually reduced my daughter to tears once. If we asked any server if a cake or other food was vegan, they would say no, because they just didn't know. The Maitre D and head chef tried to help us. Unfortunately, this stress was not the eating experience we signed up for. The best thing we could eat was veggie burger, salad and chips. Sure, it tasted good but that is NOT a cruise food experience you want to have every day! This problem could have easily been solved by some discreet labelling. Food outlets off a ship can do this easily. It is just plain entitled or lazy that RCI does not provide inclusive discreetly labelled food. There would be no waste this way. An eight year old could work this out. The main dining room vegan menu was unacceptable also. Some food was bland, simplistic and utterly disappointing. The waiters, who were lovely, desperately wanted to give us something to eat that we liked. Compared to what the omnivores got to eat, our food looked terrible, too. My daughter was convinced that they made vegan dinners out of leftovers. You can see how she came to this opinion because we had vegetable fritters for appetizers for around half on the meals. Also, cous cous wrapped up in a slice of eggplant is no one's idea of a delicious, nutritious meal. I almost wept when I saw that land on the table. In short, the food was incredibly disappointing and frankly just not good enough for vegans. In the UK, veganism is now a protected characteristic which means it is upheld as a valid philosophy and lifestyle choice - it should be taken seriously. It felt to me that RCI was behind the times with their it-will-do attitude to vegan diners. They had taken our money and were trapped on a ship desperately trying to find food that was edible. I understand that to omnivores, this might seem an incredible situation because the choice of food seemed extensive - but this was ours and many other began diners' experience, even though, part way through the cruise, the Maitre D told us that the curry station would always be vegan. Again it is about choice and the disparity of treatment between omnivore guests and vegans. Just one last comment about food, we did inform RCI that we were vegan on three separate occasions before we boarded the ship. This leave me very conflicted about cruising with RCI.
