The Fantasia Children’s Playroom is designed specifically for children aged 3 to 12 and will offer creative activities and supervised experiences, Crystal’s family-friendly approach includes drop-off programming for younger children, supervised activities for older children and the continuation of the brand’s in-room babysitting services.
The ship will also feature a Seahorse pool, which will be the largest pool in the Crystal fleet. It will span the centre of deck 10, and will have 140 loungers between deck 10 and 11, creating ample space for guests to relax, socialize and enjoy uninterrupted ocean views. A large outdoor LED screen will serve as a focal point throughout the day and evening, hosting everything from live sporting events and destination programming to movie nights.
