Navigator of the Seas overview

By Cruiseline.com - Updated Mar. 9, 2020

Recently overhauled in 2019, Navigator of the Seas boasts an unrivaled suite of Royal Amplified amenities geared toward families and active travelers looking for nonstop fun on board. The latest Navigator of the Seas refurbishments added new dining options, Instagram-worthy nightlife, and a host of family-friendly activities, including miniature golf, an ice-skating rink, and Battle for Planet Z laser tag. And on the top deck, Royal Caribbean transformed the main pool into a resort-style oasis with two completely new water features: Soar over the edge of the deck headfirst on the transparent Riptide mat racer, or set a new personal best on the Blaster aqua coaster.

Royal Caribbean has also upped its dining and nightlife game on Navigator by adding several party zones aimed at young and young-at-heart cruisers. Discover exciting international flavors at El Loco Fresh, or shake up an original cocktail at the poolside Lime and Coconut bar. Other additions include Hooked Seafood with classic New England style dishes and the Bamboo Room, a Polynesian-themed watering hole with a laid back vibe.

Starting in February 2019, Navigator of the Seas departs from Miami to various Caribbean destinations, including Aruba, Grand Cayman, and Mexico. Weekend getaway routes will treat passengers to a stop at Royal Caribbean's private island in the Bahamas as part of its exclusive Perfect Day at CocoCay resort and theme park experience.

Kid friendly cruise by 4dhunts

Ship: Navigator of the Seas

Fun cruise but not spectacular. Food and ports of call were okay. Ship is suited more for families with kids. Nightly shows were excellent and entertaining.

A great way to celebrate! by Miquilaue

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Navigator of the Seas

I could not have imagined a more enjoyable cruise experience. There were so many opportunities to dress up and have fun or lay out by the pool and relax. The entertainment was spectacular. My friends and I laughed so much and that's what a vacation is for. We're looking forward to our next cruise!
