Choosing the Perfect Stateroom

Your journey to romance at sea begins with selecting the ideal stateroom, the intimate sanctuary where you'll retreat after a day of adventure and exploration. Consider these factors to ensure your stateroom sets the stage for a truly unforgettable experience:


  • Balcony Bliss: A room with a balcony gives you privacy and stunning ocean views. It's perfect for cozy breakfasts or stargazing nights.


  • Location Matters: Choose a room away from busy areas to avoid noise. Rooms at the front or back of the ship often have great views.


  • Room Size: Bigger rooms mean more space to relax. Suites offer extra perks like separate living areas and big balconies.


  • Special Touches: Some rooms come with romantic decorations or freebies like champagne and chocolates. This can be a nice surprise for your partner.


  • Personalised Service: Don't hesitate to communicate your preferences and special requests to your cruise line or travel agent when booking your stateroom. Whether it's arranging for fresh flowers, champagne, or chocolate-covered strawberries upon arrival, the staff at Royal Caribbean are dedicated to ensuring your cruise is nothing short of magical.


By picking the right stateroom, you'll create a cosy love nest where you can relax and enjoy each other's company on your cruise.

Savoring Sunset Moments

As the day gracefully transitions into evening, there's something undeniably magical about watching the sun set over the horizon while at sea. Here's how you can make the most of these breathtaking moments with your partner:


  • Find the Perfect Spot: Seek out a prime location on the ship where you can enjoy unobstructed views of the sunset. Whether it's the forward observation deck, a secluded corner of the upper deck, or your private balcony, choose a spot where you can immerse yourselves in the beauty of nature's spectacle.


  • Pack a Picnic: Enhance the romance of the moment by packing a picnic basket filled with your favorite snacks and beverages. Whether it's a selection of cheeses and charcuterie, fresh fruit and chocolates, or a bottle of champagne to toast the occasion, indulging in a leisurely picnic as you watch the sun dip below the horizon adds an extra layer of charm to the experience.


  • Capture the Moment: Bring along a camera or smartphone to capture the beauty of the sunset and preserve the memory for years to come. Snap photos of the changing colors of the sky, the reflection of the sun on the water, and the silhouette of the ship against the horizon, ensuring that you can relive the magic of the moment whenever you wish.


By savoring sunset moments together, you'll create cherished memories and deepen your connection with your partner during your cruise with Royal Caribbean.
