General Information

Activities

Fitness buffs won’t miss a workout thanks to the line’s fitness centers. The gym complexes appear on all ships and include aerobics studios, cardiovascular and weight-training equipment, and dedicated free-weights areas. But that’s just the beginning. Here are some of the other active options cruisers will find on Royal Caribbean ships:

Rock-Climbing Walls – Royal Caribbean’s now-signature rock-climbing walls went fleet-wide in 2003. Towering more than three stories high, the walls challenge both beginners and advanced climbers to reach new heights.

Miniature Golf Courses and Golf Simulators – Golf enthusiasts can practice their putting on miniature golf courses found on most ships, or drive it home on a virtual version of one of the world’s top championship courses in the golf simulators.

Sports Courts – Whether it’s a game of basketball, paddleball or volleyball, the sports courts give guests a chance for a little friendly competition.

Jogging Tracks – Circling the deck perimeters, the jogging tracks offer unparalleled views of the sea and sky while guests are working up a sweat.

In-line Skating Tracks – The line’s revolutionary Voyager-class ships feature outdoor, curvy courses to test guests’ skating prowess.

Center Ice at Studio B – Guests on Voyager-class ships can try out their triple toe loops on the only skating rinks at sea.

Bungee Trampolines – The next “first at sea,” Royal Caribbean’s Enchantment of the Seas will give guests a birds eye view next summer as they soar skyward on the ship’s new bungee trampolines, being installed in July 2005.

Relaxation

Royal Caribbean Day Spas offer the ultimate in relaxation. The spas include beauty treatment areas; unisex full-service hair salons; manicure, pedicure and facial facilities; separate male and female changing rooms with access to sauna, steam and shower areas; and a full menu of massage treatments. On many ships, couples can try the couples massage or the Rasul room, which uses purifying clays and a private sauna to revitalize the body. The spas also feature a relaxation room for resting between treatments, and the Radiance-class ships feature a luxurious Thermal Suite – a unique spa suite consisting of heated tile loungers, a steam room, a sauna, an aromatherapy room and two tropical and fog showers. Most ships also feature an adults-only Solarium. Either open or covered by a retractable glass domed-roof, the Solariums are beautifully decorated sanctuaries, with pools, whirlpools and full beverage service.

Technology

Technology and innovation are an integral part of Royal Caribbean. The level of communication options available to Royal Caribbean guests will impress even the most tech savvy traveler.
