Royal Caribbean Anthem of the Seas Cruise Reviews for Gay & Lesbian to the Canary Islands from Southampton

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 ...

I have sailed Anthem many times. Beautiful ship with outstanding staff. Shows were good. Drinks are expensive $13 plus 20% for 150 ml. Dining experience good but sometimes very busy. Good choice of venues to eat at. Embarking and disembarking smooth. We were in stateroom and could not get the internet in the cabin which was a bit annoying. Ca in only attended to once a day but that is ...

First thing to say is we have been taking cruises for over 25 years and have sailed on Holland America, Oceania, Celebrity and Royal Caribbean. Chose this cruise as it sailed from Southampton and went to stops we had not tried before. Embarkation and debarkation was very quick and efficient and that was where it stops. The ship always felt crowded and there were never enough sun beds on deck ...

This was a 12-nighter to the Canaries, including Vigo Spain and Lisbon, Portugal. GREAT CRUISE overall!  Cabin - A standard balcony located on a hump end where the balcony had an angle, giving more space. Cabin Very clean. Great cabin steward, outwardly friendly, very efficient.  Dining - Massive improvements, bravo to RCL on this. Fantastic menu and meal choices from the last time we sailed ...

We went on a 12 night cruise with my wife , daughter and 12 year old son. It was our 3rd cruise and previously went on the navigator 4 years ago. Like every body else you look at the reviews before you go on holiday and you get good and bad reviews depending on personal opinion . To start with this was the best cruise we have been on and do not understand how anyone can fault anything ...

Having cruised with RCCI since 2002, and now at Diamond membership level, we've noticed the deterioration in quality of service and amenities, however in 2021 we sailed twice on Anthem of the Seas. Even though the ship was only at 25% capacity, we had a pretty good time, the staff were friendly and cheerful and it was very pleasant. This prompted a decision to sail on Anthem again, to the ...

Wow - our first cruise since the pandemic emerged did not disappoint. We chose this cruise because of the itinerary: Northern Spain (2 ports), Lisbon, 3 Canary Islands and Madeira, places we have never visited before. Anthem is a large ship at 15 decks and about 4500 passengers and is certainly a much different type of ship than the Oasis Class types. Activities aplenty in board. We loved the ...

Chose this one as we had previously been on Indepence of The Seas a few years ago, It made an impression, we thought would be same. How wrong! Here's a few moans, Cabin cleaner would knock on the door before 6pm each night asking if wanted cabing cleaning, even though have a magnetic note which is placed outside door to inform him, he even came into cabin whilst we were asleep before 6pm ...

There are many things to do on this ship, from the amazing shows in the theatre, to fun party nights at two70. This ship really has everything. Although it may have been a struggle to find sun loungers during the day, places like the solarium mostly had a few spaces remaining meaning there was a nice place to relax without the noise of children. The food options on this ship are also lovely. Main ...

This was supposed to be canaries but was just Belfast and Liverpool. This junior suite cabin is directly above the ladies public toilets on deck 5 so if you like to sleep before 2 or 3am don’t book this one. All I could hear was toilets flushing continuously. Once people eventually went to bed I had the sound of a toilet filling up with water sloshing about until 8 or 9am! Guest services ...
