ICON OF THE SEAS: Full Ship Tour

we are on the largest cruise ship in the world the icon of the Season we are about to give you a full tour from top to bottom and it's all coming [Music] up okay a full ship Tour on the icon of the Seas this will be a walking tour you'll be coming along with me and my trusty sidekick Kelly we are starting on Deck number 18 at the very front of the icon of the Seas this is the top deck and then we're going to move our way to the back so let's go okay so covering deck number 18 is going to be very quick because there's really only one thing to show you here and it is the Grove sweet Sund deck at the front of the ship you do have the sweet neighborhood and the Grove sweet Sund deck is a special Sund deck that is only available for those that have sweets yeah now on this deck you will find a pool specifically for those sweet guests and a wh pool okay so now let's head down the elevator and we are going to go to deck number 17 okay we have arrived at deck number 17 and here to the right is Coastal Kitchen now refresh my memory Kelly this is primarily for sweet guests correct Coastal Kitchen is for star and sky sky class guests only and top Pinnacle guest okay and then we can also we can continue around and on Deck number 17 you do have the ability to go across one side of the top deck of the ship and so we're going to head out there and we're going to show you that so you can see here as we come out you do have deck 17 on this side but here on the right side you have that is deck number 16 so we can only go around this way so that's where we're going to go so it looks like the very first thing that we are going to come to is cloud 17 pool so this is the first of quite a few pools available here on the icon of the seeg we'll be pointing those out to you as we come we are currently in St kit so you can see those beautiful mountains in the background so you got the pool area here you got plenty of uh Sun louers you also have a bar that is directly ahead here as well now kayy and I we really like deck number 17 this is where you're going to get some of your traditional layout in the sun kind of settings when we go down to the lower Decks that are um deck number 16 deck number 15 that have poles you will also have uh overhead cover with a lot more shape yes now we don't want to walk past the lime and coconut bar here and I have noticed that this bar is never crowded so I think if you want a place where you can get a drink fast this one might be it and one thing I also love there is such a variety of seaing on the icon of the seeg like you have these little chairs here the sun louers we mentioned you also have this great hi toop seating where if you want to do some people watching and come over to the to the middle to look at the main pool on the icon you have that as well as you can see it's an absolute Mammoth ship with tons to take in we have actually done a bit of a migration around the ship to try to take in as many areas spend an hour here an hour there and we still keep coming across new little cting areas like oh that's neat how do you get to that so new stuff yes now off to the right here you're going to see one of the whirlpools and I think this whirl poool is very cool because when you look at it from the bottom it's actually elevated which is just really cool looking it is very neat so it sort of like suspends out over everything else and it is really cool you also have some great views with that very cool if you need that little shower hey don't forget to rinse off a bit but continuing on hey how's it going no you're good all right lot more Lou this is the deck remember this deck number 17 you're going to see it as we keep going on Deck number 17 is where you're going to get the sun if you're looking for sun yes so that's where it's at now coming up next we're going to come up on where you're going to have a lot of the water slides and stuff so if you're all about that they have some amazing water slides on the icon of the Seas St kits is beautiful isn't it oh it is gorgeous love it we should have hiked to the top of that mountain today did not quite have the energy or the time we did have time for a nap you always have to make time for a nap when you are on a cruise okay now I think it's important to not that the section we're walking through right now is a smoking section yes yes so if you are a smoker this is your spot and again a variety of sitting here too right all kinds of different sitting areas great I think we're going to have to go in the elevator to get over to the sports Court okay let's go follow the sign Sports Court so listen as we're walking through here yeah Sports Court here but this is why I have Kelly I'm actually her sidekick I said she was my sidekick I am her side kick I have her with me because this is such a mammoth ship to keep it all straight you got to have somebody with you to help you out uh on what all the different areas are hey how's it going all right all right coming out to the sports Court to the sports Court got the full basketball court here so Kelly we want to go uh hoop it up a little bit what do you think I don't know okay so going on on in here love the colors oh got some stands here for the spectators the icon of the Seas really did good with getting some shade and we got princess Kelly there but look at how beautiful this is over here where you're out playing you've got the glass wall and you're just looking out on the ocean you're looking out at the Port so absolutely amazing all right Kelly we you want to go out the backside here yeah and head on down let's do it so this is going to take us down to the back part of deck number 16 so we've covered 18 we've covered 17 you all have saw everything there is to see on those decks now we're heading down to deck number 16 after the ship yeah and there is so much going on on Deck 16 like it's it's just amazing really excited to show you guys this part of the show this is definitely one of my personal favorite areas here on the icon of the Seas okay so we are going to turn to the right we're going to take you first here on Deck number 16 to the very very back of the ship and then we're going to work our way back to the front so the first place we're going to take you to is the Hideway special area on the ship right it is a special area the Hideway is for adults only 18 and up uh it is a great space my tip for you guys though it does fill up fast um don't don't come save seats and not be there but go ahead and get your seats hang out for the day enjoy the Sun so we got the Hideaway sign here heading down the stairs now you do have a couple of hot tubs you also have a pool here at the Hideway so we're going to check those out so some great hot tubs with some great views as well hey how's it going yeah now the Hideway pool um it is important to note that it it opens at 10:00 a.m. and it closes at 9:00 p.m. okay got some seating here that area and then you have seating off each side of the pool I'm going to show you the pool here in just a second but you have some tiered seating here it's absolutely beautiful again you can see the St kids Port area continuing on back around we going down the stairs into the pool area always a popular place the Hideway again like Kelly said is going to fill up now if you see those uh pink beds in the middle of the pool um you have to reserve those and that is an extra charge and it does seem that they go two of the three right now are reserved now one thing that's also cool in the icon they have Tool St or towel stations really all over the place so very very accessible and so here you go another shot of the pull and then they also have another bar I believe right around the corner right and some great seating Kelly and I we enjoyed sitting out here for an hour or so one day so I love how they have the couches that you can Lounge out on or you can just sit out here and take in the views take in the ocean so I'm do a little quick pan around here yeah and if you were to show everybody the what it looks like from the Hideway pool area from this vantage point now everybody can kind of see how full it is this is a p day today y then down below you have we'll show you that in a little bit you can look down you can see into the Surf Side area all right you want to head up and show them the pool area all right the Flow Rider let's go look at the Flow [Music] Rider hey how's it going hey appreciate you okay we have made it back here to the entry of the Hideway so now we're going to come around still on the very AF of the ship on Deck number 16 we're going to move around to the right you're going to find the Flow Rider here and there's going to be some other things to look at as well got some more loungers look at these seats I'm telling you they have unique seating all over the place here looking out the back of the ship the soothing the wake coming off the back truly one of the things that I really do love is there's so many shaded options on this on this ship it's amazing it is more difficult to find shade which is why that point about deck number 17 was very very important uh-oh we got some got some surfing action going she's doing better than I would do oh yeah for sure for sure for sure listen that's not easy to do got some sitting areas over here all right then again you check in there more little sitting area here and then we have the water slide so let's go check that out all right now Kay and I we went up to the water slides earlier today we went up the tower they look pretty cool right they look amazing and I'll tell you what these water slides are very high off the ground I don't know how many steps we went up but it was a lot and you can see there is a variety I love the one if you see the green where you wash out into that big bowl and you like come flying up and around I believe that's a tube slide I just saw a tube go by that is the one I have no doubt that if our kids were with us on this particular Cruise they would love doing that one and no we're going to try it we're going to try it show you guys what it's like hopefully they'll let us take a GoPro down with us I'm not sure all right so here's the exit point down here to the to the left side and then you see the stairwell that is where you go up they got the different colored signs the pressure drop and the green the storm surge the hurricane hurricane hunter various things so quite a few different slides up there and then again some more seating all around here but now let's head back across to the other side because there's even more to show you this is actually pretty cool it feels like you're walking through a jungle park sort of it it really is I love all the vibrant colors and I'm amazed at how they fit six water slides in this relatively small area and it and it truly feels like because there is so much and you've got the music you've got the vibe it feels like you're at a water park you can walk around this way but my guide Kelly gave me another ideal because I was about to pass up the golf here on the icon of the season and people have bragged about it too right yeah the dunes miniature golf um people say it's really really really cool and a lot of fun to play all right let's go check it out I do know walking by it several times the way they have the decor done up I mean you feel like it's uh Shipwreck Island um so hey let's go check it out got a couple people out here playing I'm not sure if it does it have a full do we know if it has a full 18 holes or whether it's like nine I'm thinking maybe I'm thinking I'm thinking maybe nine so here it is here all right so don't quote me on that but not looking like 18 but all right look I got to move on to this next base because truly one of my favorite you got a bar yep you've got some food here base camp bar yeah and then this is base camp where you can actually get some food uh as well directly in front of us but what Kelly and I like about this area more than anything is this covered seating and you feel like you were on one of the islands with the overhead cover taking in The Vibes with the music so it's really great yeah now one thing to note um here about the the base Camp restaurant they do have some food that's complimentary and some food uh it has an extra charge well here I'm going to give them a quick pan of that and then we'll continue around towards the front here on Deck 16 all right so here you can see the dogs what other kind of food they got here they've got chicken sandwiches and chicken nuggets Burgers all kinds of stuff so look right there you can check out that menu tons of stuff but look you get refreshed you want to do some more stuff they've got some activities over here but one of the sitting tables that I think is so neat it's made up to where you can kick the ball back and forth like a little soccer game while you're having some Chow while you're having some food sorry that Chow the uh the military came out at me now here we have the rock climbing now for myself and my kiddos one of our favorite things to do on a Royal Caribbean ship and they have five different lanes that you can go up and the progressively from the smaller up to the highest with the red so depending on what you're feeling like doing you've got a few options there then we've got one of the paid attractions coming up here ahead on the icon now I believe that adrenaline Peak that's the name of the rock climbing yep um I do believe that the price fluctuates a little bit for Crown's Edge um I asked yesterday and she said it was 39 on a port day and 49 on a SE day which is lower than what it was initially right was lower than what it was initially let's go deck seven and the big thing with the crowns Edge once you come out you come across here but it's it's it's all about the little zipline effect out over the edge of the ship up there not sure if you can see because of the sun I'm blinded from seeing my screen but that's what it's all about all right kale you want to continue on all right let's keep going all right moving back towards the main pool areas here now once you're on Deck number 16 deck number 16 just goes across one side of the top deck as well so I'll show you that here in just a moment so you can see here looking across you've got deck number 17 up there only goes on one side then on this side you only have deck 16 here there is no deck 16 on the other side so it's sort of back back and forth side to side now this is another place where you can have full sun if that is something that you're Desiring they have those loungers and then they have these little Cabanas of sorts over here those you pay for in reserve correct K yes that is correct yes yeah so that's a nice experience if that's something you're looking to do no I just want to say this whole area that we're walking through this is called chill Island if you've heard of the different sections on the and The Vibes definitely keep it chill they have live music out here a lot as well several more of the Cabanas here what we're going to do real quick though is we are going to turn into the middle to show you another place where you can get some refreshments this is the lime and coconut Frozen bar it looks like they have um almost like ster uh Slushy machines exactly with some great shaded seating here but yeah sure enough mango hurricane watermelon panina colada uh strawberry peach so this is where you you get you get hot this is where you want to come yeah it's not crowded at all so I mean I guess if you like Frozen backies and such great seating and then you can look down to Central Park absolutely gorgeous you can look out to the side and see either an island or you can see the ocean and then here in a moment we'll be down to deck number 15 to the main pool here on the icon Seas but we're not done with deck number 16 yet let's continue around y now we're going to go show you of the swim up bar on the icon of the SE swiming tonic is it swiming tonic is that what it's called it is it's a swiming tonic pool and swimming Tonic Bar now have noticed as we passed about this place has been um pretty popular pretty pretty big crew of people here at all times as you can see check it out so you got the swim up bar right over there you have some of the seating where you can put your feet in the water here so definitely a popular place to hang out now this is a great deck to be on for saway because on Deck number 16 instead of having the ultra high Windows you actually have where you can get up to the railing and check it out and look everybody at cellway is want to see the icon of the sea so you will have people lying you know and again if we can just pause here for a minute and turn toward the pool again another thing I love is a lot of the seating in the pool right now is shaded which I personally [Music] love okay that completed deck number 16 now we are going to go down to deck number 15 at the very front of the ship and work our way towards the back elevator number H let's go going down okay here we are on Deck number 15 at the front of the ship and the first thing we're going to come to is the Aquadome that is the centerpiece of deck 15 on the forward and that is obviously one of the best entertainment options here on the icon of the Seas yes it is amazing and my tip for you guys um first of all you're going to need a reservation for this show but secondly um when it's time for your reservation I would show up at least 45 minutes early if you want a really good seene and we are scheduled for that on Thursday is it tomorrow tomorrow and so we will check that out for you looks like they're doing some rehearsals here at the present time moving up all right let's head around yeah they they do they do rehearsals a lot I'm not sure exactly how many times a day they do it but y definitely come in and watch and then here we have hooked Seafood so this is a seafood dining option specialty dining here on icon of the beautiful though it is definitely beautiful and I love the views yep so nice now one thing we found is Kelly has found this to be a spot just very Serene to come sit at the very front side of the Aquadome you have the Overlook and it has such unique seating like these pods that you go up and just going hang out there and when when you go up there there there's like a bed up there um it's just very neat and it's so bright and beautiful and you can look out in the ocean I just love it here and at night it's a whole new Vibe um which is very romantic it's just a really nice place to to hang out so I'm just going to paint back here so we can get a fuller view of that and I believe there are people up there now so I don't want to go up and disturb them that would be a pleasant surprise right now the next thing that we're going to come to is the Rye and bean bar and again I just think all this seating is absolutely amazing now one of one of the the neat things about it too is when you're up here at the Overlook you can get great views let's walk out here look you can get great views you can get sun right that's filtered a bit but you still have a bit of AC so you're not just totally sweating it out so and yeah look at this like the little covered overhangs it's great all right continuing around all right want to go back up the stairs here Hill or yeah and I just love those little screens showing the fish showing fish all right back up the stairs we go now this is uh is this another part of the same Ryan Bean bar it is yes all right looks like you can get coffee here with the espresso the cappuccino any of that and then it just circles around comes out the other side of the Aquadome now now going to show you some bling let's go show them some bling so when you see this if dollar signs start flashing through your mind that is probably right because that would what is what it would cost you uh to buy most things inside of the store I don't know if they're open yet yeah I'm not sure yeah looks like they're closed up look it but you can see that's where you can buy your Royal Caribbean bling and some of it very expensive if you've heard the Chalice with the unlimited for Life drink package only roughly 100K is it's right there they also just behind it if we could see it good they also have a like $49,000 uh bling necklace Kelly will not be getting that for Christmas all right we are about to go in the back side of the Aquadome Market here you have a variety I believe it's five don't quote me different food stalls we've ate here multiple times yep it is really good yep very quick grab and go yep got hand washing as always you got the drinks off to the left side no need to show you there but then I'm going to move over to this side to show you got a large variety You' got the bar here you've got toast and garden which has salads and you also have sandwiches you have feda Mediterranean which has Greek cuisine next you have Max now when you hear that you may just think just regular mac and cheese but Kelly it's pretty good right yeah it's delicious you can put different toppings on there and they have different kinds of mac and cheese now all of this is complimentary that we've been showing you here at the aquaone market but you can see there's all kinds of variety from bacon Mac to chili mac to broccoli Mac for those that want to be healthy so my personal favorite is G&R so this this is where you get some of the Asian food I love getting some rice and then along with some of the uh the ginger beef and bell peppers sweet and sour it's making me hungry I got to go uh and then this is my personal favorite and you can see it's the favorite of many people cuz this is where you have the Crepes and they are absolutely delicious Kelly I think you had what the strawberry and the chocolate yes it was it was fabulous it's making my mouth water just thinking about it and we're going to get another one after we shoot this twirl yeah we're going to have to go or the the twirl will not be complete they also have plenty of seaing areas in here as [Music] well and now we are moving out into the more Central area of deck number 15 if I don't get crushed by the door that won't stop and now we're heading out into the more Central area of that's so funny and now we're heading to the more Central area of deck number and now we are headed into the more Central area of deck number 15 and Kelly and I we personally love this area yeah it it is one of my favorite areas I think this would be a great area to like come up and play cards with some friends or you know get in one of these little green chairs and just sit back and relax and look at the ocean now I want to pause here you don't have a lot of the traditional Sun louers but you do have some nice seating where you can hang with friends these green louers that Kelly mentioned super comfy a lot of people you'll find just chilling here throughout the day so continuing ahead here we come up uh to another bar y um and it's really not been too busy here either has it it it really hasn't I'm really really surprised there's really never any limes at all plenty of seaing for that yep go ahead you're going to say the name of it say this is the lime and coconut bar all [Music] right and this is right next to the main here on board the icon of the Seas so let's walk up and take a quick pan of that main pool area I'm going to step up on this little platform right here and you can see it is uh quite a few people out enjoying that right now they do have the seating that you can put your feet in plenty of seating around the pool and we're going to walk around that give you plenty of views yeah a lot of people have been asking you know how does it feel crowded you know how bad are the pools um we'll just kind of give you a feel it is about 4:00 um on a port day right now so we're getting ready I think in about an hour to set sale but this is kind of what it what it will look like and on this particular sailing we are not at full capacity true we're about 80% I believe is what they said yeah so you're going to have a little bit more than what we're seeing now on Su dayss here on board the icon by cleared by all right so multiple hot tub if you notice that as we were coming around plenty of that good shade large pull and now what we're going to do just to orient you we're midship here on Deck number 15 we're going to go around this other side we're going to dart back through just to show you a few things and then we're going to zap back up to this front part lots of darting and zapping and zooming but they've done a really good job of uh sort of slicing up the icon into a different different little areas but sometimes it makes the bouncing from them not necessarily the smoothest yeah but it separates things off so you don't feel like it's as crowded though you have as many people it breaks that up so it's uh accomplishes that quite well and I really haven't felt like I have walked an incredible amount to get to the different things that I've wanted to see yep um it's it's you know nothing bad the center part down here you look below you have Central Park with all the plants and vegetation I know with the the lighting right now maybe a little difficult to see but then you have L Loco fresh we've ate there once um what did you think H you got the bar first okay it was okay um they serve tacos and burritos nachos things like that I'm going to give you a quick pan of that uh here on the left and then we'll head back and look some more of the uh more of the the sun lounging so here you can see you have the burritos you have the salsa station and then you also have tacos and stuff over here to the side as well uh there's also more seating around here so check that out and I'm going say we GE off to the left there we can have maybe cut through uh actually yeah it doesn't have a cut through we're still discovering this ship as well all right coming back across got another salsa station and check out go ahead what were say off to the left here go another hot tub several hot tubs haven't counted them up but check out this ctin area here so whether you want to just go swinging around or whether you have a little that needs to balance out some energy they've got that here and then you know um and also come out here at night time the ship is absolutely amazing at night we just uh put a real on our Instagram Channel and it it's it's amazing yeah it's glowing with neon so gives it a whole different uh kind of appe pill which is really neat so on this side you know uh of De number 15 you've got the pool across the way a lot more shade here kayy and I we hung out in one of these louers right here yesterday um chairs all the way around what we're going to have ahead here and then what we don't want to forget is on the left side there is another Pool called Co let's see if we can cut through here real quick all right all right so that's pretty which I another fabulous pool it gives great views um I think and you also have the sitting areas there along the side of that as well so yeah that's really neat we actually have not hung out at that pool yet no we haven't maybe we'll do that later today another towel station to the right then two final things to show here you here in the mid area of deck number 15 one is they do have here on this side as well the lime and coconut bar and then back on this back side and we have another hot tub to the left man another hot tub here we go right there and then we're going to fast forward Zoom through here to show you the table tennis yeah and one of the things that I really like about this little table tennis area is it's it's it's its own little section it's enclosed in and so if you lose your ball you don't have to like run after it for a super long way to grab it okay so we just basically did a loop around the center part of deck number 15 now we're going to zoom ahead real fast to the final thing on Deck number 15 at the very after the ship and and that is the buffet the Wind Jammer and here we are at the Wind Jammer when you first come in you have the washy Washi stations and this of course is the cruise Buffet here on icon of the season and Royal Caribbean ships now they are closed setting up for dinner currently finishing up lunch so what I'm going to do instead of going around and getting in their way I'm just going to do a quick little hand shot here to give you a feel for what it looks like inside the Wind Jammer on icon of the Seas now let's head on to deck number [Music] 14 okay okay here we are at deck number 14 and really the main thing you have is at the very front of deck 14 you do have their Spa so we're just going to just barely step in here we're not going to go in much you do have the Vitality Cafe where you can get some smoothies and some fresh juices here to the right and then you can also book your spa booking right here as well so that's on Deck number 14 and then also they have some rooms Down On Deck number 12 okay so here is where we are at we are at the front of the ship here on Deck number 14 and again that covers some rooms in deck 12 now for deck 11 10 and 9 that is all state rooms throughout the length of the ship so what we're going to do now is we are going to go down to deck number eight outside of the Empire Supper Club J cross to the other [Music] side okay so we are now at deck number eight at the very front of the ship and that is where you will find the Empire Supper Club very exclusive great dining experience just know that this is the entrance for that we cannot go in there right now but we can go into Central Park and that is the midship area of deck number eight so let's go check it out I love this Central Park area I think it's beautiful with all of the greenery and everything it just makes me happy every time I walk through here yeah she came and snagged me one night she's like it's such a romantic area and we came out it it is definitely it glows at night and it is beautiful um have your first dining venue here off to the site is Zumi is that saying that right kill is Zumi in the park so specialty done right here that's where you can get some Habachi and sushi with some great seating inside and out and then on the other side we have chops grilled the steakhouse and the steakhouse is always good and it looks beautiful as well now coming up here on the left we have trellis bar yep and a lot of times at night they will have some music that is playing out here too just really soft sort of sets the sets the vibe the other night we were strolling through and they just had a g um who's just playing the guitar y it's great but it is super and this is definitely if you're looking for something in the evening time and really sort of in the day like right now that's a little bit more chill and not like all the buzz that's going on like on the top decks this is a great option to go Pearl Cafe we will pop in there real quick and just do a quick little scan around to find some sandwiches so check this out if you want to get some soup you want to grab some quick bites and they do have some seating here as well yep got the salad makes me hungry we may have to come back here snack something K all right and moving on now K help me out this seating here on the left side is that part of is part part of Park Cafe okay all right then if you're uh wanting to spend some money on some jewelry and watches you'll find that right back here as well so there you have uh the store a little bit of shopping then you also have another venue off to the side here right blose Jazz and Blues blose Jazz and Blues so not really going right now not open but in the evening time they do have that popping and going look at all of the the plants here up the side up both sides I don't know how they're going to keep them all alive honestly they have crew that is out here working on those all we just pass the guy look like watering stuff and and then we are coming out to Surf Side this is the upper level of that this personally for me uh I know a lot of this is uh kids area oriented but it just has sort of a happy feel to it and as far as the beauty it's great and you look out the back and you've got the whole wake coming off the back of the ship so it's just really great so here's the upper view of that now we should show them the slide for the kids right here take them down into Surf Side which is actually on Deck seven let's check it out now they do have where you can get some get some things for the littles if they need a new swimsuit and here is the slide going down so who needs to take the stairs right when you have that okay so that completes everything for deck number eight so down below us here is the a part of the ship deck number seven so we're going to go down there show you around and we'll work our way towards the front of the ship on Deck number seven now you know what they say Kell what what they say when you in Rome to do as the Romans do so we're not in room I actually was going to go down the slide here but I'm afraid I'm going to take out the little so I'll just take those steps all right so coming down here I was going to give it a go okay I absolutely love this area for um families with small kids I think this area was geared more for children around six and under um but there's so much fun bright colorful things to do like even look right here there's a lady actually making balloon animals for the kids yeah plenty of stuff you've got the arcade is over here to the right and then they have Surfside eery now they actually have a pretty interesting breakfast selection right kale they have breakfast hot dogs and I tried it the other day and they were actually pretty good yep so that is a new buff a style restaurant on board the icon of the Seas you go in you go through the buffet line they have seating on the inside and also on the outside now Kelly you were mentioning uh different things that they have to do they also got some face painting going on right pain I love that I love it too because all the kids walking around actually have like full up you know full up faces painted I love it you've got the merry go round too and look if you look across you have sugar Beach that is a candy shop and you know every kid is going to want candy and of course what better place to put it then in the kids area yep then we have another towel station and then Kelly this is one of your favorite spots it is one of my favorite spots we have sprinkles ice cream station y looks like they're working on that right now where I grab an ice a little playground for The Smalls there as well and then more food yeah we've try we have tried to try as much of this as possible to give you all some good feedback so this is Surfside bites this is more of your grabing go Burgers hot dogs dogs popcorn chicken pizza fries that sort of thing but it's all complimentary got a drink station off the side you've got some sitting areas and then for your Littles also you have like a little water Spray Park pier number seven so we have not uh been in there to eat there yet but that is another dining venue that you have here on board icon of the Seas and that is a special yep and you can see the prices are not bad though if you can see that you you know it's anywhere from $8 to $12 or so so not too bad currently I will say that I saw somebody eating a burger there the other day and that thing looked absolutely amazing now the spot over here with the lemon post bar kids really like that as well right yes they do and they have special drinks there I mean adults can get their alcoholic drinks but kids can also get the non-alcoholic drinks and they have this um like large Capri Sun drink it just looks really cool I would totally drink it is it in the big pouch and stuff I have not seen that yet no that's neat so we're going to give you a quick pan around here again this is the very back of deck number seven plenty of seating areas and really great I mean this is just beautiful great pool area for the Litt not too deep um amazing area okay so we just completed deck number seven the remainder of deck number seven is State rooms so we're going to flash ahead to the a part of deck number six and work our way from the back of deck s to the [Music] front Okay okay so here we are deck number six the very back of of the ship it is one of the entrances to absolute zero which is the ice skating venue on the icon of the Seas so you can see the stairs goes down to to get you to that um also you have social 020 that is the teenage youth club here on the icon of the Seas now pushing back through pretty good place to catch a game or hang out right this is an amazing space plenty of TVs to watch your favorite sports game they've got pool tables ice hockey all kinds of stuff but pretty good setting I'm going to pan around here a little bit and you can see there's loads of seating loads of screen you just got to find your favorite game and get you a seat close by got some foosball and the food smells good in here too right yeah it does smell good another good option to come grab some eats now you have six in main where again you can pick up some icon SE I've seen some people wearing these shirts I absolutely like I love those those are nice those are really cute so if you're want some Royal Caribbean bling that's not quite as costly this may be an option for you to check out and we don't want to pass up the park west art gallery I think maybe you can order special prints here wonderful wonderful all right now this is also a kids club kid Club not going to go in there obviously uh but I want to show you Adventure ocean fun it definitely does look fun so check it out check it out good stuff but we're now heading to probably definitely we're going to one of my top but if not the top favorite spots that I have on the ship and that is the Royal promonade they have went all out uh on this ship with a prominade we we on most nights this is where we will usually at least for some period of the night we will find oursel hanging out it's always buzzing PL plenty going on so yeah there's loads on both sides so we're not going to do a compl complete Loop we'll uh we'll go down one side and we'll just point across to the other cuz there's a lot going on here there really is so you've got the Schooner bar uh is over to the right side that's a really elegant type of seating area right it is and there's some great seating by the windows as well then coming across here I think it's called BOS yes not sure if I'm pronouncing that right uh also some good seating here as well they also have live music in the evening yes so sometimes Kelly and I will find a place to just sit hang out and listen to that and people watch who doesn't like the people watch I think that's one of the reasons why I like the Royal prominade so much now we're coming upon one of the major attractions on icon and SE and that is the Pearl this this I don't know architecture what do you call it it's it's amazing it is amazing I'm want to pause for one other thing real quick though is I want to point out that right here they have the V desk and they're sort of Linked UP And sort of manage the the starlink network for icon of the Seas not sure if I stated that quite correctly but uh if you have any kind of issues or anything with your internet package or connection uh they will definitely help you out so something to be aware of here on Deck number six now behind this Pearl that Kelly mentioned we we'll pop in and show you the Pearl this is the centerpiece of the ship yeah and so you look inside these windows and it's it's like a clan with this big pearl inside notice all of those tires not sure if you can see it but they are moving around the lights always changing this place is absolutely beautiful yeah and I just want to comment you know they have people here that will take your picture um but if you want to come and get your picture come to the top of the stairs stand and get somebody to take your picture from low shooting up at the Pearl to make yeah yeah there's always people getting thr this right yeah so it's good and you can't go down to deck number five that way now one thing with the Pearl Cafe I want to say that this is right here is my morning spot to get coffee because this is open 24/7 there's great seating I love sitting over in those seats next to the window to catch the sunrise in the morning that's my favorite thing to do um now the coffee there that is specialty coffee there is a charge for that if you don't have a package uh but they have complimentary coffee around the side I'm going to show you that but look at these sweets this is this is complimentary you've got sweets complimentary no charge you've got uh the different sandwiches same thing you just want to grab a cookie they have that or if you're looking something uh for something that's more light they have the little salads and that sort of thing and very important for any coffee drinker here's my Coffee Spot you can get coffee or they have various kind of juices again 24/7 uh you can snag that now one of the main restaurants here on board the icon of the SE is the Italian uh Italian Kitchen giovanis is right did I say that right yeah and I I got to tell you we have not ate there yet but every time we go go by it smells so good so definitely want to try that one out and this is I I think one of the cool things if you look at the Band Stand that's right there every single night they have a band out there that is playing through really good quality music so I think that sort of sets the environment for the entire prominade yep rolling on up here some more great seating Kelly and I we have actually hung out in these seats uh for the evenings to take in some music you've got a box office up here um we've not been inside here but is this a theater I think it is a theater yes that is my thought process a lot of times we'll have a stand out here that says box office and then a line will form I I will say you can actually come here and make reservations for the different shows that's usually they're here what on day one yes so if you want to do it if you don't want to do it on your app you can do it right here going to see what we can see not sure what I'm going to find out here all right oh here we go oh is this where they do the stand up I'm guessing so yes all right so that we had not been to the comedy yet again this is very early in the cruise but I believe that may be where they have the comedy shows here on board the icon of the Seas now across the way here you have Dueling Pianos yeah and that is um from what we've noticed a very popular place it's always full um when there's when there's an event going on there yeah when they have the pianis in there rocking it is uh definitely loaded out so that brings us back to the second um elevator Lobby here on the icon seat and you have two lobbies everything bounces back and forth between those y but for those uh with status they do have the crown Lounge is back here on the back of deck number six that is how you will get access to that y so I'm going to show you the entrance to the crown Lounge very quickly that is the doors here to the right now the doors here to the left when it is ready this is where they will have escape room here on the front of deck number six now the final thing on Deck number six to show you is the fitness center there's a few different ways to get entrance to that we're going to show you a long hallway that goes around to that on the front of the ship it's right around here through the elevator Lobby off to the side you'll see the sign for the fitness center ahead so let's go check that out hi hey hi hey so I'm going to turn the corner show you sort of the long hallway for that this is your warmup yes get get the blood flowing but for the sake of time we're going to just zoom ahead real fast okay so along the hallway they do have some exercise bikes here then if you're wanting to do some pilat some yoga or some cisic they have a room here off to the side then we'll be coming ahead into more of the main workout areas' got a spin room that's right there and then coming on down I'm guessing this goes down to the the front part of deck number five yep and usually deck number five is where I personally come to access cuz I don't need that big walking warm up uh before I come now real quick me let me just do a little peek through this just so you know that's the jogging track yep right there so very cool that's on Deck number five you know what I actually really like that the jogging track is actually next to the gym that's very cool get it all together yep so it's pretty neat there's plenty of equipment oh yeah this place is huge of course with a new ship everything is absolutely brand new which is spectacular it's beautiful plenty of cardio equipment sometimes that can be a challenge here's the other entrance here's the entrance for deck number five with the jogging track and so there you go the fitness center let's walk back out on the jogging track check that out Kelly you want to get a workout in while we're here not today my workout is the ship tour we need to we have some sprinkles we need to to work off but this is cool then aside from the the fitness center here on the very front part of deck number five you also have the Royal theater that is the main theater here on board the icon of the season now it's closed right now for rehearsals so we're going to go ahead and move on here into the Royal prominade so you have the lower level of the royal prominade on the center part of deck number five and they have all kinds of things that are going on here first of all you have a few shops off to the side you got a beauty shop uh you've got the jewelry shop which unfortunately they're closed right now we might have to take a little break and go shop um I'm not so sure I'm glad glad they closed um but you do have srto pizza and we've had that for a few nights really good and if you're not familiar with SOS Pizza um they have one special pizza every night so one night it might be Supreme Pizza yep and then if you're a singer you also have Spotlight krie oi and that seems to be a popular spot for a lot of people as well so Kelly I think you need to do some singing tonight don't sing but you have a lot of shops on the lower levels you have the collection uh here you can buy the little icon of the sea ships you've got Starbucks so loads going on what was really amazing here with with the inaugural sailing is the messy jerseys went on sale and there was this huge line of people waiting to buy the messy jerseys for $180 yes very popular that was right actually here they are you want to see them yeah we'll go show you so they got the Royal Caribbean shop here these jerseys right here selling for $180 people were looking them up on eBay and they were actually going for like 300 so actually here for a smaller one that one's 13030 so maybe they went down on price or maybe I'm wrong maybe they were 130 instead of 180 so more Royal Caribbean clothes there then you have here what do we have here to the right side kale um let me we'll Zoom around here and see let's Zoom around shall we this is the lower level back behind the Pearl and look I tell you what all right short Excursion desk okay so if you haven't booked your short Excursion yet you can come here and get linked up for that another check this out across the way you have another towel station and that is so handy and I'll show you why as we walk across here we talk about the gang way we are we're going to show you where that's at so so um so accessible easy to get to um right here deck number five is where you will always come to go to debark the ship and you have the escalators that are here is so wonderful and then uh to the right here there's also the 1400 Lobby Bar yeah and I think it's really neat it's a great place to sort of hang out and sit Kelly and I we have done that on a on a few occasions um and if you're waiting for people to link up for you to go to Ports um you know you can hang out right there and wait for them now guest services is right here on the Royal prominade of deck number five one thing I've noticed the lines haven't been too long have they no even on day one I thought the line would be really long it was not super impressed with that yep they worked through things very quickly had some great training they also have another bar here off to the side it is the points and feather and this seems to be a popular bar as well a lot of people hanging out there then of course you may want to consider booking that next Cruise so that station is here on Deck five the Royal prominade as well and then there is some more shopping uh that you can do what do we have on the very uh back part of deck number five kale uh we're going to check out the dining room the main dining room and that's on Deck number five I believe also deck four is that correct deck five four and three and dining room so let's see not sure if we can get access to get a few shots around but we'll find out if we can here in a moment so again you have these two main elevator lobbies so you bounce back and forth from those it makes navigation actually very simple so going into the main dining room let's see if they'll let us come in and just get a few quick shots around for you it really is a beautiful dining room so this would be the upper level of that so we'll just show you around here we won't take you in and show you the uh views from deck four and deck three but you get a feel for what it's like definitely very beautiful okay so that has completed deck number five now we're going to go down to deck number four and once we show you this this will be it it is the final few venues that you have on the icon of the sea so look it is a mammoth ship with a lot of different areas broken up very special very well done uh but look it is definitely manageable once you learn the basics of your way around so we're going to D let's go to D going up okay so here we are at deck number four and the two main things that you have on Deck number four is the casino and the Music Hall so let's go inside and check them out now one of the things that I've noticed uh just walking through this casino there's not really any walk walking aisles um you kind of have to weave around tables and chairs probably because they want you to sit down and play I am thinking that that is their strategy so I'm just going to sort of like hand looking from left to right and right to left to give you a feel for sort of the venue and what to expect so what's going to happen is we're going to come out the other side of the casino area here and then we're going to have the music hall music is a place where they will have live bands you can sit and um enjoy something to drink and uh they also have trivia shows different things like that they use that venue for as well yep so all right it is quite a big Casino though I will say it is Big it's um but it's narrow right so it doesn't go too far off to the sides got some escalators to get to that as well so you can take elevator escalator and then you can see the sign ahead here we are coming to the Music Hall this is like us walking through the grand finale door I felt like [Laughter] yes all right so this is the upper level of the Music Hall you can also come into this down on Deck number three this is a nice venue it is a nice venue so like last night we came to watch like a trivia kind of game show when we sat down in here but you can see where the setup for the band and look it is a beautiful area again some great seating so overall an absolutely beautiful ship we are so glad that we sailed on this ship and we may do so again yes
