Royal Caribbean has done it AGAIN! They're newest ships started to set sail earlier this year and YMG Travels finally had the chance to experience both ships: Icon of the Seas and Utopia of the Seas. Whether you're planning a family vacation or looking for an adults-only getaway, these ships offer something unique for every traveler.
Our owner, Yashy, had the opportunity to experience both ships firsthand, and she's here to share her insights on what makes these ships stand out.
The Two New Royal Caribbean Ships
Icon of the Seas
Icon of the Seas is not just a ship—it's a floating adventure park. Perfect for families, this massive vessel is packed with entertainment options that will keep both kids and adults entertained for days. One of the standout features is the water park at sea, an attraction that sets Icon apart from any other ship. The water slides, splash zones, and pools provide endless fun, making it an ideal choice for families looking to create unforgettable memories.
But Icon of the Seas isn’t just about fun and games; the dining experience is equally impressive. Yashy raved about the food onboard, highlighting the buffet's variety and quality. "The flavor was on point," she said, adding that the popcorn chicken churros in Surfside were her absolute favorite. However, it's important to note that this ship is heavily geared towards families, so if you're an adult looking for a quieter experience, this might not be the ship for you.
One of Yashy's top tips for wanting to book a cruise on Icon of the Seas is use a travel agent! Given the ship's size and the variety of amenities, selecting the right room and cruise package can significantly change your overall experience.
For those seeking a thrill, the Crown's Edge on Icon of the Seas is an experience not to be missed. Yashy described it as both "fun and scary all at the same time," a perfect mix of excitement and adrenaline that adds an extra layer of adventure to your cruise.
Utopia of the Seas
While Icon of the Seas is perfect for families, Utopia of the Seas is gives off an adult and older kids vibe. Yashy described Utopia as her favorite ship, thanks to its colorful, party atomosphere. "It’s a ship that knows how to have fun," she shared, making it an excellent choice for those who enjoy a lively atmosphere.
One of the highlights of Yashy's trip on Utopia was the Toga Silent Party—a unique event where guests don togas and dance the night away in silence, each with their own set of headphones. It was an experience she described as "extremely fun" and one that truly captures the ship's energetic spirit.
The food and drink options on Utopia are also top-notch. Yashy was particularly impressed with the new Pesky Parrot bar, where innovative cocktails and a vibrant atmosphere make it a must-visit spot. Whether you're looking to sip on a classic drink or try something new, Utopia has you covered.
