Independence of the Seas offers innovative amenities and a huge selection of entertainment and dining venues. Battle for Planet Z offers glow in the dark laser tag fun and the FlowRider surf simulator lets you catch some waves from the comfort of the deck. For an even bigger thrill, head over to The Perfect Storm dueling waterslides with a friend or family member and see who can race to the finish first. Along with the main dining room, the ship’s eateries include favorites like Izumi sushi and Fish and Ships, the seafood spot that’s within splashing distance of the pool. When it’s time for dessert, treat your sweet tooth to every fun flavor over at Sugar Beach. Family fun can be had around every corner, with an escape room, live entertainment, an arcade, a fitness center, a sports court, outdoor movie nights, a rock climbing wall and more. For some alone time, drop the kids off at the fully staffed, award winning Adventure Ocean and head over to the Solarium, an adults-only retreat with a crystal canopy and several pools. You can also pamper yourself with top of the line treatments at the spa or check out the roaring nightlife in one of the many bars and lounges. Every cabin contains a flat screen TV, sofa and private bath, and WiFi capability is available throughout the ship.
