It is a shame to rate the review 2 Stars when it could have easily been 5 Stars, however for the Strictly Kosher traveler the kosher food was at best marginal, and most times third world. I n all fairness if you are not a kosher traveler then this trip would be fantastic. The ship is hugh, modern, clean, and very exciting shows and entertainment...but if your a kosher traveler you 're going to ...
chose this cruise with friends I have cruised 20 or mjore times most have been on carnival which is the fun ship....I have tried rc a few time and every time I am disappointed with RC just horrible, the ship is nice and beautiful, but I don't come on vacation to make reservations to dine or go to shows, no out door entertainment, to many pools on the top deck, no music senior cruise to me a bunch ...

- if you pay every day ...
I and my cruise gang just got off of a 12 day cruise and it was fantastic. Overall, the ship is great. The cabins are first-rate. The staff are above average and the captain is the most visible and sociable of any that we've sailed with. I think that if I were take one star away, it would be for the food. It was good, but did not measure up to some of the other RCI ships. However, ...
I have thought long and hard about writing this review (which is why it's taken me so long) and with that in mind here it goes.
After previously cruising with RCI on Oasis, Allure (twice) - which were fantastic and Legend (well that's a story for another time), we had high expectations of cruising on Anthem.
We are from Australia and generally P&O Australia cruisers, so this was 18 months in ...
The dining program on Anthem of the Seas is a horrible, dreadful and unpleasant. Royal Caribbean MUST change this major problem. My husband and I are Diamond level cruisers who detested the moving from restaurant to restaurant each evening. We had uneven service and never got to know our servers at the restaurants. Several individual gave outstanding and exceptional service but the ...
I choose this cruise because of the port of calls and the length of the cruise . however most of our excursions were cancelled due to lack of interest the average age was mid seventy's and they are not able to go snorkeling and hiking and so we were given refunds and left to find last minute things to do this was not Royal Caribbeans fault but it takes away from our vacation the other thing was ...
It was easy to get to Bayonne, NJ, our port of embarkation. We were surprised how quickly we boarded the Anthem of the Seas for the start of our 12 day cruise. My wife and I were extremely surprised again on how thoughtfully the ship was designed; it's deck-by-deck floor plan and the ease to which we could navigate around the ship. All of the ship's crew were friendly and helpful.
The ...
We chose this cruise because of the ports, reasonable price, new ship with many innovations, classic dining with restaurant changes, fabulous entertainment. Dru Pavlov, the cruise director, is outstanding. Our interior room w/virtual balcony was a pleasant surprise. It was small but comfortable. The virtual balcony is great.
We particularly enjoyed everything about 270, a large ...
