"There was one lecture series which was fascinating, but it wasn't clear what the talk would be about from the daily listing and it was only because we went there out of curiosity that we discovered this diamond in the daytime entertainment desert.If you cruise with RCCI, please be aware that they are not interested in you, your loyalty or your property, they will make every excuse under the sun and will avoid dealing with correspondence by email, letter or phone...."Read More

A wonderful ship!

Review for a Bahamas Cruise on Anthem of the Seas

This was our 18th cruise on many different lines (Carnival, Celebrity, Cunard, Holland America, NCL and Princess) and we wanted to try a bigger class ship on Royal. We flew from Ottawa, Ontario to Newark airport the day before the cruise and stayed at a nice B&B in Staten Island. Took the ferry back and forth to Manhattan to see the sights which never gets old! Embarkation –This was the ...

Anthem of the Seas left us more with second thoughts.

Review for a Bahamas Cruise on Anthem of the Seas

2-5 Cruises • Age 34s

Our family sailed with this ship two weeks ago, with the expectation that we would be able to sail to Nassau, Bahamas as part of the entire itinerary. Unfortunately, we never made it there due to their claim that the ship had propeller issues that interfered with their original plans. With this said, this review focuses on the amenities that the Anthem of the Seas had to offer, and made us wonder ...

Enjoyable Cruise but could have been better

Review for a Bahamas Cruise on Anthem of the Seas

10+ Cruises • Age 71s

To celebrate our 45th Anniversary we chose a cruise to the Caribbean. Having previously sealed on RCLs’ Allure and Oasis we knew this ship, the Anthem, didn’t have all the bells and whistles of those ship, but it fit into our schedule, we booked it. Originally scheduled to stop in Port Canaveral, Nassau and Coco Cay because of engine problems the ship skipped Nassau. As promised RCL, surprisingly ...

Not the usual Royal Caribbean experience

Review for a Bahamas Cruise on Anthem of the Seas

10+ Cruises • Age 70s

I had been on this ship two years ago and loved it. This time, not so much. Way too many kids for this time of year. Itinerary got changed twice. Food was generally abysmal. Very little recognition for being a C&A top tier member. Has really changed and not for the better. The bright spot was debarkation; worked very well, everything flowed smoothly and very quickly. A nice change from the ...

Always a Joy!

Review for a Bahamas Cruise on Anthem of the Seas

10+ Cruises • Age 60s

We didn't end up where we were supposed to go. but that's OK with me! Allow me to explain: Background Information: This was my 42nd cruise overall, and my 5th time on the Anthem of the Seas. I took this cruise with my husband. The price was right and we had gone to Port Canaveral and Perfect Day at Coco Cay before. However, both ports were changed; Port Canaveral due to engine maintenance ...

Decent start terrible end

Review for a Transatlantic Cruise on Anthem of the Seas

10+ Cruises • Age 60s

Lots of odd things brought this cruise down starting with the rather strange layout of the ship, the change to main dining times with both being brought forward 30 minutes, the very noisy main dining rooms thanks to the DD layout and of course the redirection of the ship due to hurricane Tammy. Boarding at Southampton was efficient as ever, Vigo was wet, I stayed on in Lisbon, the Canary Island ...

Never again

Review for a Europe - Western Mediterranean Cruise on Anthem of the Seas

2-5 Cruises • Age 30s

We recently returned from a 12 night cruise around the Med on Anthem which was painfully long to the point we were looking for flights home at different ports and had there been available we would of 100% got off. The ship is majorly overcrowded not 1 day out of the 12 did we get a bed let alone a seat beside the pool or even close to the area. A number of times we just had to leave our stuff ...

Lovely ship but impacted by noise and crowds

Review for a Canary Islands Cruise on Anthem of the Seas

Chaz1137
10+ Cruises • Age 50s

We decided on this cruise as it was sailing to the Canary Islands from the UK. With it being just an hour flight to London for us and a short enough train journey, it was a good option at this time of year. After seamlessly boarding the ship, we were pleased with the ship overall. Nice public areas and to a high clean standard also. We checked into our cabin and liked the decor and layout. ...

Size does matter!

Review for a Canary Islands Cruise on Anthem of the Seas

10+ Cruises • Age 70s

We chose this cruise as we are Diamond Class on Royal Caribbean and so far they have never disappointed. We wanted to try this ship as the only RCI Southampton based and needed to sample before commiting to other sailings. For us this ship is too big and even though it was not a School break there were 500 children on board. We had a balcony but also a young family either side, when they were ...

Canaries. A great cruise and itinerary

Review for a Canary Islands Cruise on Anthem of the Seas

Craigyb
6-10 Cruises • Age 60s

After ready lots of reviews in the weeks prior to going I was not expecting much at all. Obviously passengers opinions vary but some of the complaints had me worried. I also went on Anthem last year which was terrible as things were still badly effected by covid. From the moment we got on this time it was different altogether. Staff levels were back to normal, the Windjammer food was amazing and ...
