Royal Caribbean Serenade of the Seas

Sailings | Photos | Videos | Reviews | Deck Plans & Staterooms

Serenade of the Seas is one of four Royal Caribbean Radiance-class ships. The design is sleek both inside and out giving the vessel a classy yet somewhat traditional ocean liner look. The ten-story glass-constructed Centrum with its glass elevators facing the sea is as breathtaking as the view itself.

Another unrivaled view is the one you get by scaling the towering rock-climbing wall! Everyone from first-timers just looking to have fun to veteran climbers looking to push the threshold of their stamina will enjoy it. Afraid of heights? Golfers can tee off at the golf simulator or miniature golf course. There is a sports court where guests are welcome to shoot hoops, play some volleyball or join in a game of dodge ball. Those that have a set fitness routine will be pleased to find that the Serenade has a jogging track as well as a well equipped fitness center.

When its time to relax, there is no better place then the day spa. Set in a comforting, peaceful environment, trained therapists specialize in massage, skin treatments, aromatherapy, nail care and more. The solarium is another lovely area in which to put your feet up. Closed to those under the age of 16, it’s a restful spot with a pool and hot tubs. The retractable roof keeps inclement weather at bay.

The main pool area is always bursting with activity. Live music, dancing and crazy pool games are always on the schedule, but there are plenty of loungers away from the hub for guests that would rather bask in the sun with a good book. Adventure Beach is perfect for families.  The pool and water slide is child friendly and there’s seating so mom and dad can relax but still close enough to keep an eye on the kids.

The Reflections Dining Room spans two decks and features a cascading waterfall. It is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. “My Time Dining”, an open seating option is available to guests that want flexibility built into their dining times. Traditional main and late seating at dinner is also offered. The dining room on the Serenade, as well as all Royal Caribbean ships offers My Family Time Dining with expedited dining and Adventure Ocean pick-up service, to keep the whole family happy and satisfied during your meals. With this expedited dining service your kids (ages 3 to 11) will be served their meals within 40 minutes. When they’ve finished dinner, parents take their children to meet the Adventure Ocean Youth staff at the dining room entrance doors. The staff will escort the children directly to the Adventure Ocean facilities for scheduled evening activities. Then you can quickly return to your dining experience and enjoy a relaxing meal.

The Windjammer Café offers buffet style meals for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

There is also a casual pizzeria for a delicious slice of pepperoni or cheese pizza fresh from the oven, as well as sandwiches and deli items. Café Latte-tudes, off the Centrum, serves specialty coffee drinks and pastries. The Seaview Café located on deck 12 aft is a great place to grab a light lunch or a late-night snack.

There are two reservation-only restaurants aboard the Serenade.  Chops Grille is a traditional steakhouse with main entree choices that include Filet Mignon, a variety of cuts of steak, lamb chops, prime rib, and fish.  Portofino is Italian with a Tucson influence. Both are well worth the small surcharge.

There are numerous bars and lounges, many with live music, to visit before or after dinner. The Colony Club offers a place to play billiards, cards and games, plus lots of seating for lounging and enjoying cocktails and live music. There is a casino, a cinema and the beautiful Tropical Theater which features lavish production shows starring the Royal Caribbean Singers and Dancers.
