Excerpts from RCI's Website about Spendour of the Seas

Enjoy a seven-story lobby, an 18-hole miniature golf course and a stunning Crystal Canopy, which by day admits the sun and by night closes to create a magical effect – perfect for dancing under. The 1,800-guest Splendour of the Seas sails four, seven and eight-night Mediterranean cruises departing from Barcelona.
