31st Jan 2028 | 4 nights | Royal Caribbean International | Utopia of the Seas
Utopia of the Seas, the latest addition to Royal Caribbean International's fleet, launched in July 2024 as the sixth giant cruise ship in the Oasis Class. With a capacity exceeding 6,700 passengers, Utopia of the Seas represents a new era in environmentally-friendly cruising, powered by Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG). This marks Royal Caribbean's commitment to sustainability, following the introduction of LNG technology on their previous ship, Icon of the Seas.
Constructed at the Chantiers de l'Atlantique shipyard in France, Utopia of the Seas incorporates cutting-edge energy-saving technologies to further minimize emissions.
Utopia of the Seas, the latest addition to Royal Caribbean's record-breaking Oasis Class, has been unveiled with a mix of familiar and new features. Surpassing its predecessor Wonder of the Seas in size, Utopia of the Seas offers fewer staterooms while promising innovative experiences. Following the traditional steel-cutting ceremony in April 2022, Royal Caribbean President and CEO Michael Bayley hinted at significant innovations onboard. Among the unveiled features is a novel dining concept inspired by the romance of classic train travel, akin to the Venice-Simplon-Orient Express and Rocky Mountaineer’s dining cars. This immersive dining experience will transport guests on virtual train journeys worldwide, complemented by cuisine and beverages from various destinations displayed on digital screens.
Utopia of the Seas boasts five pools catering to different vibes, including three resort-style sloping-entry pools featuring three Lime & Coconut bars at the heart of the ship's pool deck. Thrill-seekers can enjoy The Perfect Storm high-speed waterslides, while younger guests can splash around in Splashaway Bay. The ship's signature Ultimate Abyss slide has been extended to 259 feet with new zoom booster rollers and transparent racing windows, offering an exhilarating experience. Additional attractions include the FlowRider surf simulator, AquaDunes minigolf, and the Utopia Playscape.
With these enhancements, Utopia of the Seas promises to deliver an unforgettable cruise experience, blending innovation with leisure and adventure.
Utopia of the Seas now offers over 20 dining venues, featuring a new Locomotive Journey-themed restaurant. This innovative dining experience combines multiple courses with technology, presenting various destinations and storylines. Royal Caribbean's renowned Asian restaurant, Izumi, is located in Central Park with an expanded number of teppanyaki tables and new outdoor seating at Izumi in the Park for sushi and Japanese-inspired sweets to-go. Giovanni’s Italian Kitchen & Wine Bar spans two storeys with a new outdoor terrace named Gio's Terrazza overlooking the Boardwalk, enhancing the dining options onboard.
Returning favourites include The Mason Jar Southern Restaurant & Bar, Windjammer, Hooked Seafood, and Chops Grille, now connected to Trellis Bar.
Utopia boasts more than 20 bars and entertainment venues, including new additions like Pesky Parrot, a Caribbean-themed bar on the Royal Promenade offering fruit-based cocktails and frozen drinks. Live music venues such as Spotlight Karaoke, Boleros, Music Hall, Bell & Barley, and the traditional piano bar, Schooner Bar, add to the vibrant atmosphere. Entertainment highlights include Royal Caribbean classics like the AquaTheater, Studio B, and the Royal Theatre.
Utopia of the Seas features 20 types of accommodations, catering to different group sizes with layouts for three, four, five, and more passengers. Suites include the Royal Loft Suite and Ultimate Family Suite, alongside a new category called Solarium Suites.
Groups, couples and families who like (very) big ships with a vast amount of entertainment, day and night
Those who are after a quiet, intimate, small-ship experience; gourmands; couples avoiding kids
For the most part, Royal Caribbean ships that sail from the United States attract a wide variety of North American passengers, mostly between the ages of 30 and 55 on the seven-night and shorter cruises, and 50 and over on cruises longer than seven nights. Seven-night and shorter cruises are also popular with families, especially during American school vacation periods, when the ships will often be at filled at well past double capacity and carrying more than a thousand kids. Cruises from the U.K. -- as well as Mediterranean, Asia and Australia cruises -- attract a significant number of locals from each area, as well as Royal Caribbean's usual North Americans.
Royal Caribbean's dress code is casual during the day; at night there's either casual, smart-casual or formal dress code depending on the schedule. Casual attire includes jeans and collared shirts for men and sundresses or pants with blouses for women; smart-casual means collared shirts, dresses, skirts and blouses, or pantsuits; and on formal nights, suits and ties, tuxedos, cocktail dresses or evening gowns are expected. If you want to avoid dressing up altogether on any night, the extensive Windjammer Café is always casual dress. Caps, tank tops and bathing suits are never allowed in the main dining room or specialty restaurants; shorts are not permitted during dinner and footwear is always required.
No. Royal Caribbean ships really vary in terms of complimentary dining, with the main dining room and huge Windjammer Café as constants. Coffee, tea, milk, lemonade and a few other beverages are available without cost at all times, as well. Most specialty restaurants carry an additional charge, but there are options that are free, including pizza, the Boardwalk Dog House, the Park Café (on select ships) and more, depending on the ship. Ice cream, scooped at mealtimes and from machines in between (apart from Ben & Jerry's) is also free. Other dining choices with additional cost run the gamut from Asian to a steakhouse, deli and Mexican and Italian restaurants. Room service carries a $7.95 cost per order, with the exception of Continental breakfast.
The main pool areas are a magnet onboard any Royal Caribbean ship, as is the peaceful adults-only Solarium. Cruisers line up for the most adrenaline-pumping activities, whether to surf the FlowRider or try out new experiences from simulated skydiving and ice skating to bumper cars and escape rooms. Broadway shows (on the ships that have them) are also quite popular and fill up any night they're on offer. Equally as in demand are the high-flying and diving acrobatics of the AquaTheater and the ice-skating shows on the Freedom- and Voyager-class ships.
