buffi001 Posted August 25, 2012 #1 Share Posted August 25, 2012 I noticed that the Grandeur of the Seas is moving to Baltimore to replace the Enchantment of the Seas . Has the G O S been, or is it scheduled to be refurbished before the change? Typically, what changes do they make on a ship in that class when refurbishing? Is it usually just a change of carpet and drapes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare eroller Posted August 25, 2012 #5 Share Posted August 25, 2012 FYI GRANDEUR OF THE SEAS has already completed the revitalization process a couple months ago. Search for "Grandeur of the Seas revitalization" on YouTube and there is even a video released by Royal Caribbean. You can see the timeline and details for all the Royal Caribbean revitalizations at this link: http://www.royalcaribbean.com/contentSitelet.do?pagename=revitalizations Ernie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

labatsman Posted August 25, 2012 #7 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Will always have fond memories of the Grandeur, it was our first cruise:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cathalain Posted August 25, 2012 #8 Share Posted August 25, 2012 I'm going back on the Grandeur next October - this was also my first cruise ship and I remember the pre-renovation atmosphere. It wasn't bad, exactly, but it was very sedate and quiet. Looking at the video on RCI's website, I get the sense that it's going to look and feel COMPLETELY different. I LOVE the idea of the aerial entertainment. I could seriously sit there and look at that all day long. And I'm happy that they're also bringing some extra dining options aboard. REALLY excited for Izumi - I'm an Asian cuisine/sushi FANATIC and I have a bad feeling I'm going to drop some serious money in there. The poolside movies are going to be extra fun! I can't wait to see what the changes have wrought. The first cruise was okay, but I have a feeling that this second one is going to be a lot more exciting for me.

newbiecruiser09 Posted September 2, 2012 #11 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Are there features on Grandeur that would interest teens (boys specifically) I did not see golf, sports court or such and am concerned that my teen will be bored on sea days (he's not a lounge by the pool konda guy). Anyone have any experience recently with this ship and teens? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grandeur does however have a rock climbing wall, but that isn't exactly something you will spend hours doing, and the novelty wears off after a while.

He has sailed Maj and will be on Jewel in Dec but was hoping to be able to book out of Baltimore next summer. I guess will have to look into the NJ/NY cruises instead.

maxs mom Posted September 2, 2012 #14 Share Posted September 2, 2012 We recently sailed on the Grandeur in July. The refurb was fabulous. Here is a reveiw that I did when we got back. Looking forward to sailing on her again! http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=1682043&highlight=my+diary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
