ICON OF THE SEAS: A Brutally Honest Review

A comprehensive review of Royal Caribbean's Icon of the Seas in 2024 Eastern Caribbean sailing. Room 12718. Gluten free and Lactose free food options onboard the ship. A review of the Main Dining Room, new free food options, as well as the Royal Caribbean drink package. A tour of itinerary ports. Island of Saint Kitts and Nevis, including the Scenic Railway Tour excursion in St. Kitts. St. Thomas and the Magens Bay, Drakes Pass, and Sky Ride excursion. CocoCay bad weather. New dining times in the main dining room. Is the ship too much? Too crowded? Too expensive? Too big?

Omg.. this review, hands down, the best I've seen. You have an incredible way of describing things. You're a straight shooter, on BOTH sides.. you just say what you think with no extra feelings and let's US be the judge afterward. So good. good.

What a fantastic review! Best I’ve seen! Please thank your family for lending you your us for the many hours you unselfishly donated to us all!
Royal Carribean should hire you!!!

Good camera work, and no close ups of yourselves. Very relaxing.

I’m currently watching this on Icon! You’re spot on! But I can tell you on July 1, 2024 it’s not too crowded in my opinion. Tons of space, loads of fun, and the restaurants are great! We are in the Carribean, with Hurricane Beryl heading towards us. We are in Cozumel currently. There has been no rocking or feel of the sea below! Icon is superb!

This is hands down the absolute BEST and I mean best review that I have ever watched. Congratulations! You really need to work for Royal. You must be a professional, and if you're not well, you need to do this! Thank you so much for such a comprehensive and well-done video. You did this exactly as I would have wanted it, and it helped immensely. Thanks again great job!

We were on the Maiden voyage of Icon. We also booked the day they opened up so we also watched the price go up to double what we paid for our balcony. I agree with everything you brought up except I found the Aqua Show to be terrible but we loved the aqua theatre. We watched the show and with the new free food venues right there we had plenty of snacks. I truly enjoyed the Wizard of Oz. Best show afloat. I have a video of the ship leaving Coco Cay on my YouTube channel, sped up like 40 times. The Icon class is the best ship class afloat, we will be going back as soon as the novelty wears off and prices come down.

Thanks for the video!

This was a shockingly good review. You've earned a sub.

[decadefootwearsneakerstree]

Great review! Will be watching other videos!

[michaelgreen]

Thanks for the great review! Your voice and delivery throughout is very calm and relaxing and I too appreciated your honesty. I booked for the Western Caribbean in 2026. Over 600 days to go and the anticipation is building. And yes, you got a new sub in me as well!

This review was fantastic, and you even reviewed excursions!! This is the exact cruise that me and my husband and two year old child will be going on. You got a new subscriber from me!!

[margaretearle]

This was an amazing video best Icon video I’ve seen! I’ve watched about 15-20 videos of this ship and yours is by far the best!

[JimScollins]

Really great review! you need to do this for more ships in the RC fleet! Thank you for posting it.

[davidtavakoli]

Terrific review! You have a great presentation complimented with a very relaxing voice. You also have a new subscriber!

[KevKageNeedsALife]

Loved this haha. Free food rankings, booze plan, where to drop your kids. This should be a 100k sub channel. Great review!

[ericajohnson]

Enjoyed this video of the Icon of the Seas. Looking forward to cruising but as you said it won't be soon. Waiting for the prices to do down a little.

Just found your channel and really like your reviewing style. We sailed Icon in April, glad I wasn't the only one underwhelmed by the pearl after all the hype. We also ate at the MDR more on this sailing, and it was really good, especially the jerk chicken. Funny you mirror our story, we also could not justify the current prices to book Icon again or Star, booked on Wonder for a 2nd time in 2025.
