We did the Anthem of the Seas during Christmas week with my kids (my daughter is 13 and my son turned 16 on the cruise). We had fun, we definitely did. But, my kids missed their Disney cruise aspects. Now, Anthem doesn't have any waterslides so they missed their AquaDuck a ton, but other than that, there were other things that weren't the same for us. We're trying to do an Alaska cruise in 2025 and we're definitely torn on what to do. The kids really want Disney but we could only do one room compared to two on Royal. Big decisions to make.
