Wonderful family holiday
"By comparison our 2021 cruise with Princess resulted in US queuing in our car for over 2 hours with no facilities to be swabbed prior to boarding.Breakfast always good, pancakes a little disappointing for an American cruise line and no blueberries?..."Read More

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

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. ...

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 ...

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 ...

Cleaning of rooms only once a day. You can choose either in the morning or in the evening. Very poor desserts, both in the buffet and in the restaurant on the 3rd floor. We tried breakfast at the restaurant on the 4th floor. We won't do it anymore. There was very small selection of food. Price of drinks includes service charge. The quality of the food, not like in the past. ...

We booked this cruise in part to celebrate a 50th birthday and because the previous two we'd tried were cancelled due to COVID (more of that later). This was the third cruise with RCCL, having sailed on Independence in 2016 and Explorer in 2019. We adored Indie, everything about that cruise was incredible, and couldn't fault a thing, Explorer was also great, albeit being a slightly older ship ...

We booked this cruise as we have wanted to visit a bit more of Spain plus Islands. This cruise only went in August. We were quite satisfied with the ship although looking out from our balcony in the middle deck 9 the lifeboats got in the way. We had what seemed to be a very noisy cabin. Metal banging and scaping that went on for hours from 11pm to 4 am every night we only got about two hours sleep ...

Had cruised a few times before but not on this ship. Dont like the design of this class of ship. The communual spaces are too small no central atrium as some of their other ships. Which means that the only inside space is on decks 4/5, this space is too small for 4000 guests. The swimming pools are to small to actually swin in, too crowded with kids. The food was awful most night ...

We sailed on Anthem from Southampton in July 2023 for 14 nights around the western Mediterranean - predominantly Spain but we did have two days in Lisbon (Portugal). Embarkation in Southampton was pretty sleek and quick as it normally was and it as also nice not to have to go through the additional Covid requirements that we needed to do the last time we cruised as a family. First impressions ...
