Creator's Key Takeaways
This is Icon of the Seas. The largest cruise ship ever built and the world's boldest attempt to combine a resort, a theme park, and a city bus terminal all in one place.
Without a doubt, a crown jewel of the entire cruise experience. The Stardust wasn't just good. It was so good that I went there twice and still wished I had a third round. It's pure magic.
It's luxury distilled. Finally, the bonus round. Since you've watched this far, you deserve a spa.
