Anthem of the Seas Honest Review - Great… Or Getting Dated?

Editorial Summary

The creator evaluates the Anthem of the Seas to determine if the Quantum Class remains a viable option for Australian cruisers. During a three night domestic cruise, the reviewer examines various aspects of the ship including boarding efficiency, cabin quality, dining variety, and onboard entertainment. The reviewer notes that while the central Esplanade can feel somewhat dark and mall like, the ship functions as a well oiled machine with high quality service. Key attractions such as the Northstar, iFly, and the West End production of We Will Rock You are highlighted as major draws. Dining options range from included buffet and main dining rooms to specialty venues like Izumi and Johnny Rockets Express. The creator observes that while the standard balcony cabins are spacious, they are beginning to show signs of age through limited power outlets and darker lighting. The review also covers a partnership with the town of Eden for the Taste of Eden Festival, which provides free local experiences for passengers. Ultimately, the creator concludes that the ship is ideal for travelers seeking high energy activities and wow moments, though those looking for a purely relaxing experience might find the atmosphere too chaotic.
