We traveled on the Anthem for Thanksgiving. It was myself, my 8 year old, as well as other adult family members. Overall we had a good time. The room was excellent. Very clean, and pretty spacious. The room attendant was great and very accommodating. The ship definitely gets 5 stars for the rooms. While we had a balconey some of the people in our group opted for an inside cabin and the “virtual balconey” was awesome. Definitely very well done.
One of the biggest issues I had with this ship were the crowds. No matter where you went it was crowded and at some points I almost felt suffocated.
The pools were nice, I especially loved that there was an indoor pool for the kids and the adults only area was gorgeous! Plenty of lifeguards and the water temperature was good. The only thing my son didn’t like was that there were no water slides. So that was a major downer for him.
