What to expect on board the new Star of the Seas

Royal Caribbean’s latest and greatest mega ship Star of the Seas will make its debut in August 2025, with the Icon Class vessel’s maiden voyage departing from Port Canaveral in Florida.

Designed to carry 5,610 passengers, the ship will sail seven-night itineraries in the eastern and western Caribbean, calling at the line’s guest favourite Perfect Day at CocoCay resort in The Bahamas.

While CocoCay is one of the many destination highlights, guests aboard Star of the Seas will find an array of experiences and record-breaking amenities to entertain them during days at sea. 

These include more than 40 dining, drinking and entertainment venues spread across eight distinct neighbourhoods, as well as a variety of new and updated accommodations.

Accommodations include suites and staterooms designed for families and those seeking luxury, with stand-out features such as Infinite Balconies, convertible veranda spaces that can be enclosed within the cabin, creating more living space.

A favourite for families, the multi-level townhouses provide direct access to the Surfside neighbourhood and with dedicated spaces for children.
