But that keeps the crowds down and you get a beautiful view. Biker, who made the trek most days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloodgem Posted November 17, 2018 #28 Share Posted November 17, 2018 Will the CL still be used as a CL after her dry dock? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biker19 Posted November 17, 2018 #31 Share Posted November 17, 2018 ^ the Quantum dry dock next year may provide a clue. Biker, who foresees an SL coming to Quantum class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CactusRoot Posted November 18, 2018 #33 Share Posted November 18, 2018 Sounds like you are already booked on this one. If not I can suggest some things. If you are booked, well pick a good room. Enjoy early morning walks on the Promenade. We many times saw no one. If you don't want crowds avoid the sales. We often went up to watch the robots mix drinks and look down onto the crowds buying stuff. The Lounge 270 is Awesome. The Solarium to relax when most people were at dinner or in a show was peaceful. We went up in the NorthStar for 9 minutes. Not bad. But watched people in the IFly. It didn't look fun. It seemed more a struggle. That is a few things. The Cruise director is DRU. He was one of the best we ever had of many, many, cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaylemh Posted November 19, 2018 #34 Share Posted November 19, 2018 If you are looking for a quiet place for a drink, head to VIntages. Very quiet and relaxing. Never crowded. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tantrumxp Posted December 6, 2018 #35 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Im excited this being my second cruise. First was was Explorer of the Seas for 14 days. awesome time. Next one up is my Bday trip with family. Anthem of the Seas feb 23 2019. I have a quick question. On deck 11 is the that Ocean Adventure place which is only for kids. Is it noisy up there on that floor? Most of my family members are staying on deck 11. Kinda wanted to keep my parents up there with them, but if its too noisy, i would prefer deck 9. Thanks in Advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ashmarie33 Posted December 12, 2018 #37 Share Posted December 12, 2018 We're sailing on Anthem in Feb/19 (our third time on her, proposal, honeymoon and now just because!). We love it and we are not ones who participate in a lot of the planned activities. As mentioned, Two70 and CL are great for relaxing and finding a quiet space and so is Vintages! Particularly the outside seating (that is, in the Via, not outdoors) when they have live music playing by the sculpture. Beautiful spot to relax and enjoy the music and people watching without it feeling crowded. Only exception is when a show lets out but that crowd clears fairly quickly. Hope you enjoy!

Glad to hear this our cabin on the Ovation is just down the hall from the CL, I can’t wait for that short walk to my morning coffee and snack. I may become spoiled to be on that deck just to be close to the CL. jc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecslady Posted January 1, 2019 #39 Share Posted January 1, 2019 Will be on Anthem for the first time in May. Couple of Questions.. is the Diamond Lounge open all day? is 270 a good place to sit and read for a couple of hours during the day. Or are there some better places?

The Diamond Lounge is accessible 24 hours via your SeaPass card or WOW band. Self-serve specialty coffee is available 24 hours (unless this is one of the ships that has started to limit that availability). However, other drinks are only served during the evening cocktail period. There is also a continental breakfast available for a couple of hours in the morning.

Or are there some better places? 270 is fine, but at times they do hold dance classes and other events there. Check out the upper level of the 270. There is a quiet area on the starboard side and a small library and computer area on the port side. Be sure to explore the entire ship early in the cruise. There are other areas that might appeal for quiet reading, but you might have to move around. The Solarium is quiet, but usually pretty full. However there are less utilized areas outside on decks 15 and 16. When the flow rider is not open, it’s pretty quiet out there. Bars like Boleros and Vintages can be quiet during the day. Schooner Bar is used for a lot of trivia. Be prepared to move as scheduled events take over areas of the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually excited to be back in the Schooner for daytime activities and nighttime music. It's been a couple of years since I was on RC. Looking forward to it. I'll probably do most of my reading while relaxing by a pool, solarium or outside, but sometimes I like a quiet area inside, especially since I'll be solo on this one and I'm in an inside cabin, where I will not spend much time.

However, he has chosen the Anthem of the Seas and I just can not get excited. I loathe crowds, can't stand being herded like cattle, hate "organized" activities aka belly flop contests and the like. I much prefer smaller ships with education speakers. We have cruised many times on RCCL (Diamond Plus Member) however most of our sailings were prior to the mega ships. Please tell me something that is going to get me excited about this cruise.........The destination is Bermuda (which is where we got married) which I have been numerous times. Please help....anything .... thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suesnake2002 Posted January 21, 2019 #45 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Was on anthem in nov, and the solarium was always packed. So i guess it depends what time of Year you went. 270 also got crowded, when schedule activities where going on. I found vintages to be nearly empty, and there is alot of relaxing seating in this area just outside of vintages(vintages us behind the horn) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
