Food halls and teppanyaki on Legend of the Seas
Much of the best eating on Legend of the Seas is included in the fare, and the Aquadome Market shows it. Five stands share one food hall with ocean views: smoky barbecue, Thai curries, South American empanadas, French crêpes and Mediterranean bowls. You can graze across all of them without leaving your seat.
Surfside Eatery is built around families. It serves buffet breakfast and lunch with chocolate-chip pancakes and fun-shaped pasta, then turns to relaxed evening dining with grown-up takes on children’s favourites. Up on Thrill Island, Basecamp hands out soft pretzels, hot dogs and smash burgers between activities, also at no extra cost.
For a night out, Izumi Hibachi Sushi puts chefs at a sizzling teppanyaki grill in front of you, with maki rolls served indoors or al fresco. Chops Grille, Royal Caribbean’s steakhouse, cuts wagyu and tomahawks from a butcher’s display. Both carry a charge.
The Caribbean from Fort Lauderdale, the Mediterranean from Barcelona and Rome
Most of her programme is Caribbean round-trips from Fort Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida, USA, running from November into April, right through the Australian summer. The 5, 6 and 7-night sailings often include Coco Cay in the Bahamas, with Costa Maya and Cozumel in Mexico among the other calls, though stops vary by departure. The 8 and 9-night round-trips have room for more: Oranjestad, Willemstad/Curaçao and Cabo Rojo in the Dominican Republic are ports you might see. Royal Caribbean’s Caribbean cruises lists her departures from Fort Lauderdale beside the rest of the line’s.
In May and June she sails the Western Mediterranean on 7-night round-trips from Barcelona, Spain and from Civitavecchia (Rome). Typical calls include Palma de Mallorca, Naples, Marseille and La Spezia, but itineraries change. Whether she leaves from Fort Lauderdale, Barcelona or Civitavecchia, we book the flights from Australia, a hotel either side and the transfers as one holiday. She also sails transatlantic crossings. Cruises from Barcelona in 2027 shows her Mediterranean sailings alongside other lines’.
She belongs to Royal Caribbean’s Icon Class, with ships including Icon of the Seas and Star of the Seas. The rest of the line’s ships are on the Royal Caribbean page.
Bars and duelling pianos aboard Legend of the Seas
The Overlook Bar is the one to find first. It sits inside the AquaDome behind two storeys of floor-to-ceiling windows, with live music and the Overlook Pods, small alcoves made for settling in. On the Royal Promenade, Dueling Pianos has two musicians trading song requests every night, with plenty of humour along the way. Nearby, the Fourteen Hundred Bar opens the promenade onto an ocean-facing terrace for a cocktail with a view. Drinks in all three are charged unless you have a beverage package.
What is special about Legend of the Seas?
Thrill Island is what sets her apart: a zone of slides, climbs and mini golf that keeps families busy on sea days. The high-speed slides and twisting chutes of the Category Six Waterpark are included in the fare. Crown’s Edge sends braver guests along a suspended walkway above the ocean, with an unexpected drop underfoot. Younger cruisers have Splashaway Bay, an included aqua park with slides, fountains and a tipping drench bucket.
Legend of the Seas cabins and deck plans
Her suites come with Royal Suite Class, Royal Caribbean’s suite tier, whose perks include a private suite lounge and priority service. Suite guests also have Coastal Kitchen and The Grove Suite Sun Deck. On a ship whose neighbourhoods range from busy Surfside to laid-back Chill Island, her cabins and deck plans show which part of her you would wake up next to.
