Serenade of the Seas is a beautiful Radiance Class cruise ship that can be found cruising (usually for 7-nights) from San Juan, Puerto Rico year-round in the Southern Caribbean. However, from May through October of 2012 this ship will be repositioned to Europe, sailing round trip from Barcelona on 12-night cruises.

In December of 2012, Serenade of the Seas received a variety of upgrades. Among the enhancements were the addition of an outdoor movie screen, a few new restaurants (including Chef's Table, Giovanni's Table, and Izumi Asian Cuisine), pervasive Wi-Fi, flat-screen TVs in all staterooms, as well as a nursery, Concierge Club and Diamond Lounge.

Upon entering the ship and seeing the impressive ten-story glass-constructed Centrum, with glass elevators facing the sea, you're sure to know that you're embarking on a wonderful "resort at sea."

Among the many dining venues aboard Serenade of the Seas is Reflections, the two-tiered main dining room, as well as the Windjammer Café (with its various buffet-style dining options), a couple of upscale specialty restaurants (Portofino and Chops Grille, each which has a per person cover charge), Seaview Café, and a pizzeria. Also available is 24-hour room service, a great option for those that would like to enjoy a snack in the comfort and convenience of their stateroom or suite.

There are many entertainment venues and things to do on a Serenade of the Seas cruise. For instance, Tropical Theatre is the ship's three-level main show room, where a live performance occurs during each night of the cruise. Possible shows include Broadway-style production shows, comedians, magicians, acrobats, musicians and game shows. Also on this ship is a casino, swimming pools, whirlpools, mini-golf, a rock-climbing wall, full-service spa and fitness center, beautiful Solarium, duty-free shopping boutiques and internet cafe.

Of the ship's many bars and lounges, the Schooner Bar and Viking Crown Lounge are Royal Caribbean signature venues. Other options include Vortex Nightclub and the Colony Club, a British colonial-style lounge with self-leveling pool tables.
