Recreation

Star of the Seas is also home to Adrenaline Peak, an impressive climbing wall that’s perfect for a bit of friendly competition between family and friends – or, other cruisers!

For those of you who prefer ‘chills’ over ‘thrills’, you’ll find plenty of places to put your feet up and relax.

Destinations

Star of the Seas might be an adventure in and of itself, but where does this remarkable cruise ship whisk you away to when you set sail? Well, with voyages starting in Port Canaveral, itineraries aboard this spectacular Royal Caribbean cruise ship will primarily sail through the Caribbean and Central America – both Eastern Caribbean destinations like Puerto Rico and St Maarten and Western Caribbean destinations like Honduras and Cozumel in Mexico.

You’ll also find a lot of itineraries stopping off at Perfect Day at CocoCay in the Bahamas, one of the best cruise line private islands out there and an incredible resort to spend – as the name suggests – the perfect day during your holiday.

Hull Design

Much like Icon of the Seas, Royal Caribbean is going to use the hull of Star of the Seas to feature the work and designs of Caribbean-based artists – utilising the same Artist Discovery Program as before. Four artists will also be selected to paint large-scale murals for the Royal Promenade, the Suite Sun Deck Lobby, the Suite Sun Deck, and the embarkation area.

You can also find out more about other new cruise ships coming in 2025 and beyond right here, if you're looking for options beyond Star of the Seas. This ship is also going to be one of the biggest cruise ships in the world when it sets sail, much like Icon of the Seas already is.
