Stef, you haven't loss your love, enthusiasm, spark for cruising. I love your honesty, your humor and your heart. I am so glad to see you having a great time. Good luck on your next adventure. Love and prayers!
Stef, I have followed you since long before Sean’s illness and I could easily be your mom. I just have to tell you how proud I am of all that you have accomplished and you look absolutely fabulous! I am so happy Ben and David have taken you under their wing and you have blossomed. I will admit that this ship would be my worst nightmare….i stick to the much smaller luxury lines…..I am old 😉 but I just love the way you did this tour. It is a great handbook for anyone planning on sailing on her. It’s a ship my grands would love and your video would be the number I would have them watch and take notes, make plans long before boarding. Congratulations sweet girl! ❤
Thank you for the kind words. I am grateful for all the friends that have gotten me through the darkest time of my life. Totally understandable about the size of the ship. It isn’t for everyone. I am hoping I will get to try a smaller line in the future. That’s a goal for sure. Thanks so much for watching and for following along on all the adventures
Stef - you make some of the very best cruise ship review videos ever! This one is excellent where your voice over goes over other footage. So glad that you are doing well enough that you can still juggle your health, your job and your love for travel and vlogging!
Thank you so much for the kind words. This one was fun to put together. I am doing good. I am slow to get videos out but I am happy that I still get to do what Sean and I started together
I always look forward to your videos Steph! I love your tips, your perspective, the way you film and I LOVE bloopers. I want to thank you for continuing to make videos as you take me places I’m unable to go to this time. I’m so proud of you for continuing to enjoy new adventures, spreading joy and care. I hope you can feel the love back from your loyal followers, your friends and family. 💕
Thanks so much for your lovely comment Catherine. Your love and support keeps pushing me forward to continue to make more videos and explore more places. Thank you for the continued love and support ❤️
Thank you for the wonderful video. Going deck by deck, makes it easier for people to see wlhere they want go and what to see. You are so happy doing what you love. Looking forward to your next video. How are your kitties? Miss seeing all of them. God Bless. Judy
Thanks for the lovely comment Judy. Glad the video is helpful. I do love making them. The kitties are good. All sitting around me (and on me) right now. Thanks for watching. All my love to you!
Stef! I came here from Ben and David…. I love so much to watch both of your guys’ videos to really see everything. You’re so fun and your voice is so easy to listen to!!
Wow Stef!! This was so different and fun. Love all the hints and tips. Hahaha... I absolutely love when you include the bloopers. ❤❤ Thank you for taking us along.
Thanks for watching Mary Ann! It was a challenge to try to think of a way to showcase this ship, without doing a traditional ship tour. Glad you liked it. And those bloopers were 😂
Looking beautiful and happy. I can only imagine how much Sean would have loved this ship. There are probably 50 ship tours out there right now - I love this angle!
I'm not surprised@@seanandstef - it's so massive that you almost HAVE to go at least twice to experience everything. If only it wasn't so dang expensive!
Love love love the inclusion of the bloopers! Your vlogs always make me smile, but the bloopers make me laugh loudly. Thank you for a very entertaining video, Stef.
Thanks so much for watching! It is my pleasure to help make Icon a bit easier to navigate before you get onboard. She is beautiful but she is a massive ship
It was a pleasure meeting you on the inaugural sailing! Sorry a first I didn’t realize it was you because you were with Ben and David! I have watched some of your videos and they are great! You are doing great and Sean would be so proud so keep going! ❤
Loved this video, we saw everything you saw and ate everything you ate, LOL. We didn’t find the ship longer than most ships, but it is much wider than all the oasis❤️
Thanks so much for watching and yeah, totally agree with you about the length vs width. Hope you had a great cruise. Cant wait to go back and sail on her again!
You are looking great Stef and I love your enthusiasm when touring the ship. Also love the bloopers. 😂. I appreciate seeing so much of the activities and the shows. I knew that the aqua show and the ice show were very good but the Wizard of Oz didn’t sound great but after seeing your video, I’ve changed my mind. Thanks so much for the video and keep well. 😊
Thanks so much for watching and for your lovely comment. I was actually skeptical about Wizard of Oz as well but I was blown away by the production. Royal keeps getting better and better with their shows
Stef, I loved seeing you enjoying Icon of the Seas with Ben, David, Dee & Jay. What fun! I was very happy to see you looking so well. Your vlog was perfect and very informative, deck by deck. I love this format especially on a ship that's huge!!
That smile is everything 😊. Stef you did an amazing job on this video. I agree 💯 the shows on this ship are amazing. Great video my friend. Can't wait to go on another cruise that you go on as well.
Thanks for the sweet comment. It was so amazing meeting you on the cruise. Thanks for stopping me and saying hi. So hope we are able to cruise together again
Excellent video! You're so fun to watch, great personality! Thank you for taking the time to show us these not to miss spots! Beautiful eyelashes, too. What's your secret?
I loved your video. I loved how you visited each deck. I have watched many videos taking me on tours of the Icon of the seas. I can absolutely say that your video is the best. I grabbed my pen to take notes. Thanks! Thanks ! Thanks! Looking forward to seeing more videos made by you. ❤ your video!
Stef!!!! Love this video! We were so excited to see u in the parodj videos but this is awesome. We love u and are so happy to see u out making fantastic cruise videos. Wishing u all the best in the world!!! Xoxo
What a great video!!! I love the way you showed me your favorite things about the Icon. Like you mentioned, there are a lot of ship tour videos already and so that made your video much more unique and special!
😂 I would love to met you you so funny I wish you were going cruise that I’m going on April 6 through the 14th. You should go on the Vista and out of Cape Canaveral
I first saw you and shaun on a p&o cruise a few years ago. It was my first cruise since my husband died and my first cruise since completing treatment for cancer. I would smile as I watched you both vlog around the ship, you both looked so together and happy. I hope you are doing well with your treatment. xx
Hi Stef. I’m planning to go to Europe in September onboard a Royal Caribbean Oasis Class Ship and was wondering how reliable and fast the internet is onboard. I’m a teacher and I’m thinking about meeting my class via Zoom to teach for 3 hours every day. If the Internet isn’t good, I’ll probably need to ask for a substitute. Your help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you 🙏 I enjoy your videos and appreciate all the information you bring. I have the cruise bug. 😊
Totally agree with you on that, that’s why I wanted to mention it in the video. I loved everything about this ship but you do have to treat this ship like a theme park visit
It is nice to see a much wider promenade. Because of the population on board, I don't know if it makes much of a difference or not. I think one of my biggest issues with Royal ships has been that the promenade has been poorly managed and it becomes a massive clog anytime anything goes on there. Getting around during events is nearly impossible and it really takes away from the cruise experience. If they made the promenade wide enough that you can get from end to end during events, I would call it a big improvement.
Yessss! Could not agree with you more. I think the wider promenade is such an improvement and from what I experienced, made it a lot easier to navigate through night crowds. Also having deck 6 extending the entire promenade helped with navigating from end to end. Deck 5 would be crowded but walking above it on deck 6 was really nice. I wish they would have extended the venues out a bit to give them more space for the amount of people that the ship holds. But overall the promenade on Icon is a huge improvement over the Oasis ships
The Pearl looks really cool. I was wondering if it was going to be all LED like the Sphere in Vegas. Is there music that plays inside the Pearl? I'm thinking of the way the tunnel that connects terminals at the Detroit airport plays that psychedelic music.
The Pearl was such a great space. I thought it was going to be LED as well. There is music that plays inside but everything I heard was more soothing, spa type music. I didn’t go inside the Pearl during the night parties. I wonder if they play music in there for those nights. Would be awesome to be like the Detroit airport. I haven’t been there but that sounds cool
Sorry about all the comments. Playmakers is great. I LOVE chicken wings and they have fantastic deals on wings if you order larger quantities. I think it was like $30 for 50 when I visited them on a different ship back in October. Making you go through there to catch the ice show is really weird. The ice shows are my absolute favorite. I couldn't get enough of the show on Harmony. It was magical.
Playmakers chicken wings are sooooo good. Top those off with the onion ring tower and I am in heaven, lol. It was such a strange decision to have the entrance of Absolute Zero inside Playmakers. So weird. And totally agree with you, the ice shows on Royal ships are fantastic!
@@seanandstef I have this love/hate relationship with onions. I don't like onion rings but I like the Bloomin Onions at Outback. I don't think I ever cook onions in anything and I don't care for onions on my burgers but I love diced white onions served on slices of tomato on toast with some ground black pepper.
For now no hair dye because of the chemo meds that I am on. The bleach that I need to use to make the pink stand out is too harsh and my stylist and I are afraid all my hair will fall out. Taking it easy on the hair dye for now until I see how the meds do with my body
Stef, you haven't loss your love, enthusiasm, spark for cruising. I love your honesty, your humor and your heart. I am so glad to see you having a great time. Good luck on your next adventure. Love and prayers!
I don’t think I could ever lose those things. I am so happy that I can continue doing what Sean and I started together. Thanks so much for watching ❤️
@@seanandstef You doin ok Stef?
Absolutely one of the best Icon vlogs I’ve seen so far! So fun and helpful… Awesome! Thanks Steph!

It was so nice meeting you as well. Hope you had a great time on Icon. Can we all go back and do it again 😁

Absolutely loved this, a great summary of what the ship has to offer with great tips. The videography is fantastic too!
Thank you for the lovely comment. Loved everything about Icon. Thanks so much for watching
That was a wonderful review, so glad to see you happy and having such a nice time!🎉
Thanks so much for watching. I loved Icon and had a great time. Only wish I had another week to explore more
Just checking in and thinking of you Stef ❤
Hello Stef. Hope you’re safe in Florida during the hurricane. Anyway, we look forward to your next cruise adventures 👍🏻
Glad to see you back! Hope you are feeling well.
Had a great time on Icon. Feeling good 😊 thanks so much for asking
Looking beautiful and happy. I can only imagine how much Sean would have loved this ship. There are probably 50 ship tours out there right now - I love this angle!
Sean would have loved this ship. The tech alone would blow his mind. I want to go back on soooo bad (and I rarely say that about a ship)
I'm not surprised@@seanandstef - it's so massive that you almost HAVE to go at least twice to experience everything. If only it wasn't so dang expensive!
Just got to the bloopers...ALWAYS PRICELESS! As I hear Sean saying "nope" in my brain while watching him pan.
Hahaha, I hear him saying the same thing
Great video! Best one yet! Thank you so much! I will be on the ship in May and I will watch again before boarding! Beautiful ship can't wait!! 🚢
This is as professional as anything I watch on the travel channel. So good
Love love love the inclusion of the bloopers! Your vlogs always make me smile, but the bloopers make me laugh loudly.
Thank you for a very entertaining video, Stef.
Those bloopers though. Hahahahaha It was a pleasure meeting you on this amazing ship.
The bloopers 😂😂 It was so nice meeting you as well. Hope you had a wonderful cruise!
Great video with the chapters...so helpful. Thank you.
Thanks so much for watching! It is my pleasure to help make Icon a bit easier to navigate before you get onboard. She is beautiful but she is a massive ship
Love your breakout of the ship's spaces! And it was great meeting you at Hideaway Beach at CocoCay!
Thanks so much for watching! It was lovely meeting you as well. Hope you had a great cruise. Hoping we can meet again on a cruise someday
Stef great to see you again on here. I definitely praying for you everyday and im going on icon of the sea during st Patrick's day
Thank you for the prayers ❤️ So amazing that you will be on Icon next month. Hope you have a great cruise!

Hi Stef.
I’m planning to go to Europe in September onboard a Royal Caribbean Oasis Class Ship and was wondering how reliable and fast the internet is onboard. I’m a teacher and I’m thinking about meeting my class via Zoom to teach for 3 hours every day. If the Internet isn’t good, I’ll probably need to ask for a substitute. Your help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you 🙏

Ship looks amazing,ill be on Uptopia of the Sea im September,my first Royal cruise
Yayyyyy for Utopia. That ship looks fantastic. Hope you have a great cruise. You picked an excellent first Royal cruise!
Love your videos Stef! Your are awesome! 😊
Thanks so much for watching and for your lovely comment. You are awesome as well ❤️
Just sending warm wishes of good health and happiness, not hearing from your Blog. Just hoping all is well❤
❤your energy.
Thanks for the kind words and thanks so much for watching
You are so freaking adorable!
Happy to see you back!
Thanks so much and thanks so much for watching
Great tour Stef!!!!!!
Thanks so much and thanks so much for watching
Hey Stef, my husband and I were just sitting here saying no one does cruise ship tours like you and Sean did. Hope you’re doing ok xx
Is the laser tag open to do? I thought that and the escape room weren't available yet?
Stef is wonderful! Yet I wouldn't want to vacation on a ship where your have to rush around and get early to everything you wanted to do
Totally agree with you on that, that’s why I wanted to mention it in the video. I loved everything about this ship but you do have to treat this ship like a theme park visit

For now no hair dye because of the chemo meds that I am on. The bleach that I need to use to make the pink stand out is too harsh and my stylist and I are afraid all my hair will fall out. Taking it easy on the hair dye for now until I see how the meds do with my body
come on camera, FOCUS---lol
