Splendour of the Seas
Ship Rating: 
|
The multilevel Centrum is the hub of this ship. It's an airy, light-filled atrium with gliding glass elevators, palm trees, panoramic windows, gleaming brass, and chairs and low tables placed in cozy groupings. Most passengers gather here for a pre-dinner cocktail as live music plays in the background. Other popular spots include the convivial Schooner Bar, the elegant champagne bar and the Solarium, a serene, glass-enclosed pool area with a retractable ceiling. The Viking Crown Lounge is a Royal Caribbean signature; floating 11 decks above the ocean, it's an observation point by day and a pulsating dance club at night. There's also a casino and show lounge. Go for a seaside jog on the top deck, spend a few pampering hours in the spa or work out with a view at the ShipShape Fitness Center. Kids will love the 18-hole miniature golf course on the top deck. The Windjammer Café is a casual alternative to the formal, two-level King & I Dining Room. All staterooms feature iPads that will allow guest to access their onboard account, order room service, surf the Internet and watch movies.
