Vision of the Seas touts VOOM, the fastest internet at sea, coupled with entertainment for every mood, from an outdoor screen for movies under the stars to Broadway-style musical revues in the main theater and aerial acrobatics shows that comes to life in the multi-story Centrum in the heart of the ship. With more than 15 restaurants and bars across the 12 decks, guests can experience a variety of flavors morning, noon and night at Royal Caribbean’s most popular restaurants, including Izumi Asian Cuisine, Chops Grille, Giovanni’s Table and Park Café.
