Royal Caribbean's Wonder of the Seas - Part 3
We ate our dinner tonight in the Windjammer, on the basis of we’d had a large lunch, so we could just have a small amount to eat up here… I still had to be rolled out! I opted for the freshly made stir-fry with noodles which they made in front of me. I chose what I wanted in my stir-fry - chicken, baby corn, beansprouts, noodles, sugar snap peas, Teriyaki sauce, and they made it for me! It was delicious. There was an unbelievable selection of cakes and desserts, that I did have maybe 4 small desserts…
After dinner we went to the Aqua Theatre, where we saw the ‘inTENse Aqua Showcase’ which was super impressive. With high-divers, high-rope walkers, slack-rope acrobatics, synchronised divers / swimmers, featuring world champions, all choreographed to the most amazing musical score. I think this was my favourite show out of the whole trip.
We ended our night at Boleros for a cocktail (or two) and Latin music, before heading back to our cabin, but not without stopping at Sorrentos to get a slice of pizza! Then it really was back to our cabin to pack up and prepare to leave the ship in the morning. We were given the option of leaving out suitcases outside the cabin to be taken off the ship for us, but we decided to keep them and just carry them off ourselves in the morning.
The following morning we showered and packed up, before having one last breakfast, this time in the Windjammer. Pastries, pancakes, waffles, cooked breakfasts (the full works) for all diets and tastes, plenty of fruit, coffees, teas, juices, so much to choose from. We filled up before we had to leave the ship and head back to the airport.
So who would I recommend Wonder of the Seas to?
I would absolutely recommend to any families with children – with so much to do on board, you won’t even need to leave the ship. Whether you've got toddlers, tweens or teens, they will not be bored, ever. There are kids clubs designed for all different ages from really young children up to teenagers, with plenty of age-appropriate spaces. I also think it would be perfect for groups of friends as well, with bars and nightclubs on board, you will have a great time. It is a very large ship, which is important to remember if you have mobility issues. Although you are allowed to take mobility scooters on board so as long as you are happy with one of these, you will be fine. I haven’t even mentioned the adult’s only solarium, which is a great space if you want to be away from the noisiness of the pool deck. So even if you don’t have children, this ship would be fine for you too. And don’t worry about not being able to exercise on board because there is a fantastic gym, a running track, there are fitness classes, and also there is a spa and beauty salon with a juice bar too. There really is something for everyone on board this ship.
I think I’ve covered everything, but if you’ve got any questions or want to find out more, then please let me know and I would be happy to answer any questions. This was the 5th Royal Caribbean cruise that I have been on, all on different ships, so I feel I have got a great range of experience of the different classes of ship that you are on offer from Royal Caribbean. They are actually all quite different, but every single one of them has fantastic crew members providing the highest lever of service you could imagine. Ultimately, I would 100% recommend a cruise with Royal Caribbean.
