Creator's Key Takeaways

Icon of the Seas is our favorite ship and this is pretty much a clone of that.

It's exactly the same as icon. Uh I'm pretty sure there was but in any case yeah it's exactly the same as Icon which is fine cuz that's our favorite ship.

The duck is very tender. Uh, it's juicy in this sauce and the gravy or whatever.

It's a long walk to go anywhere. Even if you just gone from one side to the other.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Book the Surfside family suite for the most cost-effective access to suite amenities.
βœ“Be aware that the pull-out couches in Surfside family suites are not suitable for teenagers or adults.
βœ“Visit the water slides early to avoid crowds.
βœ“If you have kids, the Wow Bands are useful for tracking them around the ship.

Getting lost on a large ship β€” Be prepared for long walks; the ship is massive.
Kids' club availability β€” There are plenty of activities and spaces for kids, but there can be crowds.
Cabin comfort β€” If booking a Surfside family suite for a family with older kids, be aware of the bed size limitations.
