The five-storey glass Centrum makes an instant impression as you embark Legend of the Seas. Another outstanding feature of this vessel is the endless glass walls that afford stunning views and flood the ship with light. While not the youngest in the Royal Caribbean fleet, this 1,830-passenger vessel emerged from a recent refurbishment looking spick and span. Other transformations include the addition of Izumi and Chops Grille, two of the vessel's three alternative dining venues. Similarly, part of the upper level of the Romeo and Juliet Dining Room is now home to Chef's Table, a delightful dining experience with a tasting menu and wine pairing. Meanwhile, the bistro-style Park Café was added to the Solarium, the ship's indoor pool area.

Legend of the Seas has a total of 915 staterooms split into the following categories: Inside (132 to 142 sqft), Outside (151 to 220 sqft), Balcony (151 to 191 sqft), Junior Suite (230 to 452 sqft) and Suite (355 to 1,002 sqft). Each stateroom is furnished with two twin beds that can be joined to form a queen-size bed. There's ample wardrobe and drawer space, a small sofa and coffee table, mini-fridge, and flat-screen.

The most impressive entertainment onboard Legend of the Seas are the aerial shows in the Centrum. Here, acrobats dance, flip and twirl while suspended from ropes and bungees. In addition to housing these displays, the Centrum is also used for live musical performances and dance lessons. 'That's Entertainment' Theatre lives up to its name; here the revues are the very stuff of seaborne show times. Meanwhile, with its bubble chandeliers and geometric tables, the signature Viking Crown Lounge atop the ship serves as a quiet spot for reading or just watching the world go during the day but comes to life at night.
