The Latest in the Lineup of the World's Best
Vacations Debuts August 2025
in Port Canaveral (Orlando),
Florida
MIAMI, Dec. 5, 2023
/PRNewswire/ -- It's opening day for the next bold combination of
every vacation. Royal Caribbean International revealed the first
look at the latest in the best-selling Icon Class, Star of
the Seas, and the vacations in store for every type of
family and adventurer. Starting August
2025, vacationers can get away in a new way from Port
Canaveral (Orlando), Florida, with 7-night vacations to the
Caribbean and the cruise
line's top-rated private island – Perfect Day at CocoCay,
The Bahamas. Star's debut
lineup is now open on Royal Caribbean's website, and
Crown & Anchor Society loyalty members have special access to
book today in advance of the official opening on Wednesday, Dec. 6.
Adventurers can island hop in style on the next iconic vacation
while in the eastern or western Caribbean and The Bahamas. The newly opened vacations feature
idyllic locales like Basseterre, St.
Kitts and Nevis; Cozumel,
Mexico; Philipsburg, St.
Maarten; Roatan, Honduras; and San Juan, Puerto Rico. Plus, on every
getaway, vacationers can look forward to kicking back or going all
out at Perfect Day at CocoCay. The cruise line's
one-of-a-kind private island destination features everything from
13 waterslides to the largest freshwater pool in the Caribbean and The Bahamas to the island's first adults-only
oasis, Hideaway Beach (opening January 2024), with a private beach, pools and
spots for drinks and bites, exclusive cabanas, live music and
more.
On the heels of welcoming Icon of the Seas to the family
two months before its January 2024
debut, Royal Caribbean is following up the historic response to the
first in the Icon Class lineup by introducing the revolutionary
combination of experiences to Port Canaveral (Orlando) for the first time. Star will
feature the best of every vacation, from the beach retreat
to the resort escape and the theme park adventure,
across eight neighborhoods that are destinations in themselves,
including Thrill Island, Chill Island;
AquaDome, the tranquil oasis by day and vibrant hot spot at
night; and the open-air Central Park. Between more
than 40 ways to dine and
drink, cutting-edge entertainment on the
cruise line's four signature stages – air, ice, water and
theater – and a lineup of activities for adults, kids,
teens and the whole family, everyone can make memories their way
every day without compromise.
The Icon Class highlights coming to Star include the
adrenaline-pumping thrills like Category 6
waterpark's six record-breaking waterslides and Crown's
Edge – part skywalk, part ropes course and part thrill
ride – as well as the unrivaled ways to chill across
seven pools for every vibe and mood, including swim-up bar
Swim & Tonic; Cloud 17, the adults-only
retreat; and The Hideaway's one-of-a-kind infinity pool
suspended 135 feet above the ocean. And while families can spend
time together and on their own adventures throughout Star,
they can stay and play all day at Surfside. The neighborhood designed for
young families features ways to splash for all ages, dedicated
restaurants and even a bar – The Lemon Post – with a menu
for the grownups and one for the kids. New experiences will also
make their way to the latest in the lineup of the world's best
family vacations, and they will be revealed at a later
date.
With Star making its debut in Port Canaveral
(Orlando), Royal Caribbean is
doubling down on the revolutionary combination of every vacation
that was first revealed on Icon in October 2022 and which continues to create
unprecedented consumer demand. The two world's best vacations in
two of the world's top travel destinations, Icon in
Miami and Star in the
greater Orlando area, will
introduce an unparalleled lineup that marks the next bold moment in
the new era of vacations and for Royal Caribbean.
Vacationers can explore all that has been revealed about
Star to date on Royal Caribbean's website
