Splendour of the Seas, a Vision Class cruise ship, is over 69,000-tons of fun at sea! Sailing to desirable vacation destinations such as the Mediterranean and South America, this ship provides a fantastic value to those that sail on it.

Among the many entertainment venues and things to do aboard Splendour of the Seas is seeing a live show each night of the cruise at the 802-guest 42nd Street Theatre. Possible shows include singers, dancers, magicians, musicians, comedians and even game shows (often involving the participation of volunteers from the audience). Also on board this ship is a casino, swimming pools, whirlpools, rock-climbing wall, 18-hole mini-golf course, full-service day spa and fitness center, internet cafe and photo gallery (where you can purchase the professional pictures that you may opt to take during your cruise).

Of the many bars and lounges aboard Splendour of the Seas are Royal Caribbean signature venues such as the Viking Crown Lounge and Schooner Bar, as well as the Pool Bar, Top Hat Lounge and Champagne Bar.

You should never run of out places to eat while on a Splendour of the Seas cruise. The two-level, glass-walled King & I Dining Room is the ship's main dining venue, where you can choose to be placed in either an assigned or open, called My Time, dining format for dinner. Other options include the Windjammer Café (which has a large buffet, with a variety of food), as well as 24-hour room service.

During November of 2011, Splendour of the Seas received many exciting enhancements. Over 100 balconies were be added to the ship, flat-screen TVs were be added to existing staterooms, public spaces (such as the atrium and pool deck) were refreshed, WiFi was added, as was a new Concierge Lounge and Diamond Lounge (offering complimentary breakfast, and an evening open bar, just for Diamond and Diamond Plus Crown & Anchor Society members).

Splendour of the Seas will leave the Royal Caribbean fleet April 2016. She will be transferred to Thomson Cruises, and rechristened as Thomson Discovery.
