MIAMI- In the summer of 2024, vacationers will be able to celebrate the best weekend in the best possible way. Royal Caribbean International has revealed the ultimate 3-night weekend and 4-night weekday getaway, Utopia of the Seas. As the first newest ship in the Oasis Class to offer short breaks when it makes its debut, the next big holiday novelty sets the stage for creating more memories than ever before on a short trip. Utopia will start sailing from July 2024 from Port Canaveral (Orlando), Florida, with an unparalleled combination of the energy of the weekend with more than 40 bars and restaurants, more pools than days to enjoy them, alternatives to live strong emotions and to rest, and much more even in Perfect Day at CocoCay, Royal Caribbean's private island in the Bahamas - including Hideaway Beach, the new adults-only beach set to open in early 2024.
The iconic adventures of Oasis Class's newest ship will make their debut with short getaways offering both new and reimagined experiences, such as a new Caribbean tiki bar, a one-of-a-kind immersive dining experience, the newest, best - and longest - dry slide at sea; newly designed resort-style pools, and much more. Reservations for Utopia can now be made on the Royal Caribbean website from Friday, June 23. Members of the Crown & Anchor Society loyalty club can book from Thursday, June 22.
'Vacationers seek to enjoy every moment by celebrating and recharging with friends and family, and Utopia of the Seas makes that possible in more ways than one,' said Michael Bayley, president and CEO of Royal Caribbean International. 'With the wide range of restaurants, bars, pools, entertainment and excitement that make the Oasis Class ships revolutionary, and the ability to continue enjoying the experiences offered by our private island, Perfect Day at CocoCay, we have combined the best of the best to create the best weekend in the world for everyone.'
Utopia is the top getaway for friends, families and groups who want to celebrate any special occasion. Each person can create their own weekend energy with their selection of different types of pools and beaches, flavors from around the world, nightlife and entertainment.
Pool days for any mood
Whether spending the day by the pool or on the beach, both things can be done in the best getaway. Complete with the white-sand pools and beaches of Perfect Day at CocoCay, the vibes at Utopia's five pools range from liveliest to quietest.
Resort-style pools and sloping pools with beach entrance - Three pools and three Lime & Coconut bars are at the center of the action. Everyone can enjoy the high-speed water slides at The Perfect Storm, while toddlers enjoy Splashaway Bay; They can also relax, sunbathe and be entertained by live island music; and enjoy nearby snacks like the new poolside food truck with grab-and-go favorites; street food and Mexican-inspired drinks at El Loco Fresh and Cantina Fresca.
Solarium - In this tranquil retreat space, adults can recharge in their own pool and hot tub, where they will also find a bar, lounge chairs, panoramic ocean views and the Solarium Bistro.
Sun Deck Suite - Tucked away in the upscale Neighborhood Suite, the pool offers a panoramic view of the ocean in this private oasis with lounge chairs, umbrellas and more.
To continue creating memories beyond, guests can dry off by immersing themselves in unprecedented emotions around every corner of the ship. From the most adrenaline-pumping Ultimate Abyss yet, now 79 meters, 13 meters more, and with new sliders and transparent racing windows, to the 10-story high zip line; the exclusive FlowRider surf simulator; miniature golf at AquaDunes; and Utopia Playscape for toddlers, there are adventures for everyone in the group.
A trip around the world of flavours
With more than 20 dining options, every type of person can offer themselves a round-the-world tour for their palate as they hop from island hopping in the Bahamas.
Immersive dining experience: Combining multiple dishes, technologies and different destinations and stories, the unique new experience that will be revealed later, is a journey for all the senses.
Izumi and Izumi in the Park - Joining Royal Caribbean's flagship offering at its new Central Park location, it's a new window serving fresh sushi and Japanese-inspired sweets. Next door, Izumi Restaurant has reinvented itself with twice as many teppanyaki tables and adding outdoor dining tables.
Italian cuisine at Giovanni's Italian Kitchen & Wine Bar - Now two floors, the reimagined favorite and its menu of authentic Italian dishes, varietals and classic cocktails with a new twist extend to the new outdoor terrace, Gio's Terrazza, overlooking the exclusive Boardwalk.
Other returning favorites include The Mason Jar Southern Restaurant & Bar, where country music accompanies Southern flavors; Windjammer, which offers hundreds of dishes and flavors for breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner, all inspired by Royal Caribbean's international chefs; Hooked Seafood; and Chops Grille, now connected to signature bar Trellis Bar.
Celebrations for every occasion
Going on a trip is always a good reason to celebrate. Anytime, anywhere in Utopia, travelers are just steps away from enjoyment and nightlife, with more than 20 different bars and entertainment venues, two casinos, spaces with live music and spectacular entertainment.
Pesky Parrot - The new Caribbean bar is a laid-back piece of paradise on the Royal Promenade serving fruit-based cocktails made with rum, tequila and gin, along with frozen drinks and more.
Casino Royale - Up the ante are two casinos that feature more than 370 arcade machines, nearly 30 table games, and more.
Live Music - It's all about finding the best music in the five music venues, ranging from Spotlight Karaoke to the Latin music of Boleros, Music Hall to enjoy rock with the best cover bands at sea, Bell & Barley, the English pub with its guitarist singing live and the classic piano bar of Schooner Bar.
Spectacular entertainment - The shows produced by the cruise line take the center stage by air, ice, water and the theater stage, including high jumps, rope balances and acrobatics in the AquaTheater; ice skating montages at Studio B; and theatrical productions at the Royal Theatre.
Utopia is the perfect getaway for everyone, even in regards to the rooms you have to choose from. In the more than 20 types of accommodations, groups of friends and family, whether large or small, can find their perfect place in rooms with ocean views or neighborhoods such as the outdoor Central Park and the lively Boardwalk; designs for three, four, five people and more; or suites such as Royal Loft Suite and Ultimate Family Suite, plus a completely new category: Solarium Suites.
The celebrations also extend from the boat to the coast. The latest in getaways allows you to enjoy twice as much with visits to Nassau in the Bahamas, and Royal Caribbean's Perfect Day at CocoCay, the 'Best Private Island' in the last three consecutive years. Between the two islands' beaches and turquoise blue waters, and Perfect Day's 13 water slides, soon-to-be-announced swim-up bar, pools, overwater cabanas, and adults-only Hideaway Beach, guests will enjoy more than one memorable day at the beach.
For adventurers who want to create unique memories, they can choose to make a getaway in Utopia any Friday or Monday, or travel on any action-packed Royal Caribbean ship on 3- to 8-night voyages from Port Canaveral, including the new Wonder of the Seas.
The latest in 3- and 4-night getaways will also make headlines when it debuts in July 2024 as the first Oasis Class ship powered by liquefied natural gas (LNG), the cleanest marine fuel. Utopia, following Icon of the Seas, will be the cruise line's second LNG-powered ship and will mark a new advance in Royal Caribbean's decades-long commitment to the environment, combining LNG technology with other environmentally friendly initiatives such as onshore grid connection and waste heat recovery systems.
More information about Utopia of the Seas will be revealed ahead of its highly anticipated debut in summer 2024. Vacationers can be among the first to dive into everything the new getaway has in store in www.RoyalCaribbean.com.
