Anthem of the Seas

Onboard energy centers on the signature Quantum toys that still define the class. The glass North Star capsule, bumper cars and sports inside SeaPlex, and production nights keep atriums buzzing from morning into late evening. She feels like a resort week more than a quiet ocean crossing, which is perfect when your group wants something booked every hour and less ideal if you came for hush.

Cabin strategy matters on a ship this busy, and the mix is better than older Royal classes. Standard balconies are the volume play for most families, Virtual Balcony insides help budget travelers stay sane, and Studio cabins serve solos without a forced double fare. Royal Suite Class unlocks Coastal Kitchen plus butler-level perks when you stretch the budget, though we still map noise under entertainment decks and near elevator cores before you book.

Dining is a choose-your-own map across four main rooms plus specialties, so reservations are worth making early on sea days. Versus Oasis-class peers, Anthem trades Central Park–style outdoor neighborhoods for thrills and slightly roomier average cabins. Confirm the itinerary on this page for UK, New York–area, or Asia homeports, then ask us to steer cabin banks and dining plans before you sail.
