After reading all these articles about Royal Caribbean cruise ships and destinations, you need to find out now that there is another kind of Royal Cruise, quite far away from the Caribbeans area: it is the Royal Cruise Hotel in Pattaya, a beach resort in Thailand. Pattaya is a cruise in itself, with its multitude of entertainment options and facilities. I think that 99% of the population there is working in the tourism industry. Bars, clubs and restaurants are everywhere. Pattaya’s main street has probably hundreds of such places. They say that at Royal Cruise any thing is possible. I’d extend this to the entire resort. I’ve seen some shows in some of the clubs there that I’m embarrassed to tell you about. It is an unbelievable freedom for tourists, while local people seem to be damned to entertain the white guys who come there to spend their money.
The nicest thing about the Royal Cruise hotel is that it offers a special 4 star comfort, with its cruise vessel shape. When you look at the main facade, you feel like it will go on a cruise line in 5 minutes or so. You feel like getting fast aboard, so they don’t set sail for the cruise without you. It’s about feeling royal, feeling special, and more important, it is about eating. Thailand in general is about eating. I’ve eaten fabulous dishes there, which I’ll remember for my whole life. I suppose Carribbean cuisine is also good, but nothing can be as delicious as a wok plate prepared from fresh sea food ingredients.
Next time I’ll visit Pattaya, I’ll book a room at Royal Cruise. Then I’ll make sure to book a Royal Caribbean cruise on Voyager of the Seas, in order to be able to compare the two.

What benefits you can enjoy as a customer of a Freedom Star cruise ship? For example, they offer the first and only surf pack at sea, so you can learn how to surf while cruising to see marvelous places, harbors and islands. The cantilevered whirlpools are extending 12 feet beyond the ship sides, thus offering you a great ocean view while you relax in the water. Soothing spa treatments will rejuvenate your skin and your spirit and the numerous fitness options will keep you fit during your cruise.
If you were always curious what a boxer feels, you can now take boxing lessons with experienced instructors, in a full size boxing ring.

Belonging to the Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines, the Voyager class of ships is built for leisure and relaxation, as their slogan so nicely says: “Is It a Ship or a Destination?” With such ships, tourists never think of the destination, they don’t have the anxiety of getting there faster or sooner. It is just like the time stopped while they were playing basketball, golf or skating. How can you skate at the board of a cruise ship? With the Voyager Class cruise ships this is possible, because they have ice-skating facilities for their customers. Another great feature is the Royal Promenade, which is like a main street in the USA, with shops, cafe bars and all the stuff, only it is placed in the middle of the ocean, on a cruise ship deck.
For adventurers, there’s a 200 feet rock wall for climbing, on each of these Royal cruise ships. You can challenge yourself and see if you have the heights sick while hanging so high above the water surface. For romantics, there are dance clubs, specialty restaurants, wine bars.
The Youth program would keep your kids busy during the cruise, allowing you to enjoy relaxation while specialized staff attends your children in their games.
Should you be willing to take your office people on a cruise, you’ll have all facilities for conference such as a dedicated meeting space which can accommodate up to 400 people, an executive boardroom, presentation rooms already equipped with all high-tech tools for presentations, teleconferencing equipment and more.
The Voyager Royal cruise ships are: Adventure of the Seas, Explorer of the Seas, Mariner of the Seas, Navigator of the Seas and Voyager of the Seas. All of them can offer you an unforgettable cruising experience, with their luxury facilities and with their trained and polite staff, always ready to fulfill your wishes and make you feel good.
