That viralnine-month cruisefrom Royal Caribbean isnt the companys only ship making waves.

In January, it unveiled the largest cruise liner in the world, the Icon of the Seas.

When I was invited on board the 1,198-foot vessel for its maiden voyage, I jumped at the chance.

Hideaway Beach on Royal Caribbean’s CocoCay Island.

Its here where I was struck by the sheer scale of Icon.

With soft DJ tunes and a cocktail in hand, the atmosphere felt like a Barcelona beach club.

Dining al fresco, I chose the Mediterranean-inspired lamb shank complete with a light feta cheese and watermelon salad.

As for dinner, the grand, multi-level Main Dining Room is an opulent spot.

I also booked a reservation at the Nobu-esque Izumi Hibachi and Sushi restaurant, located on Deck 6.

Much like Icon herself, CocoCay gives visitors the option of chill or thrill.

While brief, my stay on the worlds largest cruise ship lived up to the hype.
