Soak up the luxurious upgrades in the wonderful Lotus Spa while the kids be themselves in the newly-redesigned Camp Discovery youth programs.

Indulge in a steaming-hot specialty pizza, fresh out of the oven, at the newfound Slice Pizzeria (which replaced the old pizzeria). Other enhancements include the addition of The Mix rooftop bar, a colorful venue certain to brighten up your day onboard, plus a new surround-sound audio system for the mind-blowing Movies Under the Stars experience!

Fire up your taste buds for some of the finest cuisine at sea onboard Ruby Princess. There are so many delicious dining venues aboard this ship that you’ll never run out of something to try. The ship’s piazza-style atrium is home to the casual International Café, featuring a menu that rotates throughout the day, as well as wine and seafood bar, voted one of the “Best Wine Bars at Sea” by USA Today. Other dining options include the ship’s six must-try specialty restaurants (see below for details) and three main dining rooms (one traditional and two anytime), featuring celestial cuisine and selections designed by renowned chef Curtis Stone. There’s also a large buffet and bistro with almost every type of food imaginable, the Caribbean-themed Café Caribe, Salty Dog Grill, Slice Pizzeria, Coffee & Cones ice cream bar, and 24-hour room service.
