Royal Caribbean International’s Icon of the Seas. On 7-night vacations to the Caribbean and The Bahamas, adventurers can experience highlights like six record-breaking waterslides, an adults-only retreat, seven pools, the first neighborhood designed for young families, 40-plus ways to dine, drink and be entertained; and more.
Central Park is more lush and livelier than ever on Royal Caribbean’s Icon of the Seas. The open-air neighborhood, with more than 33,500 real plants, welcomes vacationers to enjoy experiences like the debut live music venue and bar, Lou's Jazz 'n Blues; the new, convenient Izumi in the Park pickup window and the Bubbles walkup champagne bar; and more.
On Icon of the Seas, Swim & Tonic in Chill Island is Royal Caribbean's first swim-up bar at sea. Vacationers can have a sip while they take a dip and sit back at this vibrant spot, with in-water loungers and tables, a whirlpool and more.
On Icon of the Seas, Swim & Tonic in Chill Island is Royal Caribbean's first swim-up bar at sea. Vacationers can have a sip while they take a dip and sit back at this vibrant spot, with in-water loungers and tables, a whirlpool and more.
Perched atop of Royal Caribbean’s Icon of the Seas is AquaDome, a tranquil oasis by day and a vibrant hot spot at night. The transformational neighborhood is where vacationers can enjoy wraparound ocean views, a 55-foot-tall water curtain, restaurants, bars and the cruise line's marquee aqua shows at the next-level AquaTheater – home to the first cast of robots, skateboarders, high divers, aerialists and more.
The reimagined Royal Promenade is the heartbeat of Royal Caribbean’s Icon of the Seas and the soon-to-debut Star of the Seas, the next combination of every vacation. The signature neighborhood features floor-to-ceiling ocean views, the jaw-dropping Pearl – the world’s largest kinetic art sculpture – and 15-plus restaurants, bars and lounges.

El Royal Promenade reimaginado es el corazón de Icon of the Seas de Royal Caribbean y de Star of the Seas, que pronto debutará, la próxima combinación de todas las vacaciones. El emblemático vecindario cuenta con vistas al mar del suelo al techo, la asombrosa Pearl – la escultura de arte cinético más grande del mundo – y más de 15 restaurantes, bares y salones.
With 33,500-plus real plants, the reimagined Central Park on Royal Caribbean’s Icon of the Seas and the soon-to-debut Star of the Seas comes alive day and night with live music – and drinks – at Lou’s Jazz ‘n Blues and convenient pick-up windows for sushi and Japanese street food or bubbly. The restaurants in the open-air neighborhood also range in flavors, from an American steakhouse to Icon’s Empire Supper Club and the new 1930s Chicago-inspired Lincoln Park Supper Club coming to Star – both experiences uniquely pair each of eight courses with live entertainment.

Con más de 33.500 plantas reales, el reimaginado Central Park en Icon of the Seas de Royal Caribbean y de Star of the Seas, que pronto debutará, cobra vida día y noche con música en vivo y cócteles, en Lou's Jazz 'n Blues y convenientes ventanillas de recogida de sushi y comida callejera japonesa o champagne. Los restaurantes en el vecindario al aire libre también varían en sabores, desde un American steakhouse hasta Empire Supper Club de Icon y el nuevo Lincoln Park Supper Club inspirado en el Chicago de la década de 1930 que llega a Star – ambas experiencias que combinan de manera única cada uno de los ocho platos con entretenimiento en vivo.
Atop Royal Caribbean’s Icon of the Seas and the soon-to-debut Star of the Seas is AquaDome, the tranquil oasis by day and vibrant hot spot at night. The transformational neighborhood is where vacationers can enjoy wraparound ocean views, deck-defying shows with aerialists, high divers, robots and more at the AquaTheater; and restaurants and bars where they can take it all in.

Este vecindario transformador es donde los vacacionistas pueden disfrutar de vistas panorámicas del océano, espectáculos que desafían la cubierta con aéreos, clavadistas, robots y más en el AquaTheater; y restaurantes y bares donde poder disfrutar de todo.
One of seven pools on Royal Caribbean's Icon of the Seas and the soon-to-debut Star of the Seas, Chill Island's Swim & Tonic is a lively swim-up bar with a menu of gin-based cocktails and more. Vacationers can have a sip and vibe as they take a dip and kick back at the in-water loungers, tables and whirlpool.

Una de las siete piscinas en Icon of the Seas de Royal Caribbean y en Star of the Seas, que pronto debutará, Chill Island's Swim & Tonic es un animado bar en la piscina con un menú de cócteles a base de ginebra y más. Los vacacionistas pueden tomar un sorbo y vibrar mientras se dan un chapuzón y se relajan en las tumbonas o sobre las mesas en el agua y en las bañeras de hidromasaje.
Tucked away 135 feet above the ocean on Royal Caribbean’s Icon of the Seas and the soon-to-debut Star of the Seas, The Hideaway is an adults-only neighborhood that combines uninterrupted ocean views with beach club vibes, and at the center of it all is the only suspended infinity pool at sea. Alongside the best “seat” in the house is a dedicated bar, a DJ and a multilevel terrace with whirlpools and loungers.

Escondido a 40 metros sobre el océano en Icon of the Seas de Royal Caribbean y en Star of the Seas, que pronto debutará, The Hideaway es un vecindario solo para adultos que combina vistas ininterrumpidas al océano con vibraciones de club de playa, y en el centro de todo se encuentra la primera piscina infinita suspendida en alta mar. Junto al mejor "asiento" de la casa hay un bar dedicado, un DJ y una terraza de varios niveles con bañeras de hidromasaje y tumbonas.
Designed for families with young kids, Surfside is where families can stay and play all day without compromise on Royal Caribbean’s Icon of the Seas and the soon-to-debut Star of the Seas. The neighborhood features three water experiences, including the Water’s Edge pool for grownups to kick back just steps away from Splashaway Bay kids aquapark, and nearby spots to grab bites and drinks for everyone, like The Lemon Post bar and the dedicated Surfside Eatery buffet.

Diseñado para familias con niños pequeños, Surfside es donde las familias pueden quedarse y jugar todo el día sin concesiones en Icon of the Seas de Royal Caribbean y en Star of the Seas, que pronto debutará.
