Whether you’re a multi-gen clan or a couple of thrill seekers, you will find your perfect base to recharge between adventures.

Legend of the Seas is also a foodie’s dream, boasting 28 dining options that take you from Japanese street eats and teppanyaki theatrics to Italian classics and American comfort favourites. Dine your way around the world with immersive concepts like Royal Railway – Legend Station, inspired by Marco Polo’s Silk Route, or dress up for a glamorous evening at the Hollywoodland-style supper club with live music and craft cocktails.
