Review summary

Due to the time of year, there were very few children on board. The ship is huge but never felt too big. Dining accomodations could have been better, it seemed disorganized. Disappointed in upscale restaurants. Food no better than regular dining room and the up-charge was not worth it.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Anthem of the Seas has 3 pools. 2 are indoors so sailing north to cooler temperatures was no problem. And considering there were 3 days at sea the pools were great areas to hang out

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
overall the staff was helpful and pleasant. I would give it a 4.5 not 5 stars. The sales people in the promenade are were helpful but seemed aggressive at times. Always pushing to make a sale.
