Hailzmick Posted March 16, 2016 #26 Share Posted March 16, 2016 I sailed Vision out of Barcelona & Legend out of Brisbane, within the last 12 months. The food on both is BRILLIANT, but the entertainment on Legend was 100x better than Vision. I think it's a nicer looking ship too. Both great ships though!!! I'd prob go the cheaper option & get a better cabin!. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hailzmick Posted March 16, 2016 #27 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Vision has better Aft balconies.... Really? Eh, we had an awesome corner aft on Vision & have a Jnr Suite aft balcony on Legend in a few weeks. How are they different? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pencruise Posted March 16, 2016 #28 Share Posted March 16, 2016 We have booked the May sailing on the Legend - good price for an aft JS and wonderful to finish the cruise in Venice. Not sailed Vision yet, will be doing so in a couple of months, so cannot compare the two ships, however we did spend 29 nights onboard Legend last year and loved the ship and crew.

Rare LMaxwell Posted March 16, 2016 #29 Share Posted March 16, 2016 I know Vision has a complimentary steam room and sauna, separate male and female facilities. I don't recall if Legend has these. In between the spa and gym. I think the relaxation room may be complimentary too. At least all of it was in 2014 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dln929 Posted March 16, 2016 #30 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Legend has a great mini golf course! I'm sure I read somewhere that Legend also has a bungee trampoline. Is that true? We've been on her sisters Rhapsody and Vision and I never noticed one (or I'd have been on in a New York minute... :D ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare island lady Posted March 16, 2016 #34 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Enchantment is the only ship with a bungee trampoline. And we rarely have seen it used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vickiw0318 Posted March 16, 2016 #36 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Really? Eh, we had an awesome corner aft on Vision & have a Jnr Suite aft balcony on Legend in a few weeks. How are they different? The corner aft on the Vision "wraps". The one on the Legend does not. You will still have a great balcony - just not as spacious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPacificbound Posted May 12, 2016 #39 Share Posted May 12, 2016 Although they are very similar my personal preference is Vision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Setting sail for fun Posted May 12, 2016 #40 Share Posted May 12, 2016 We have sailed both ships and enjoyed both of them. Agree, a huge price difference would be the deciding factor for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pencruise Posted May 12, 2016 #41 Share Posted May 12, 2016 Legend is sold out on the RCL site :eek: oh no that doesn't sound good !!! And I just got a nice price drop too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindyJohn Posted May 12, 2016 #42 Share Posted May 12, 2016 (edited) We like Legend best in Vision Class because we prefer the convenient placement of the CL and DL on deck 9 and we enjoy our mini-golf:p which the other Vision class ships do not offer.

Mim Lloyd Posted May 12, 2016 #43 Share Posted May 12, 2016 Thank you all for great feedback. Another consideration between the two is the weather. I was told that Dubai can be very hot even in April and possibly unbearable in May. If anyone traveled that route before, it would be good to hear. As to the price, I could book a suite on Legend for less than balcony on Vision. Should this be important and outweigh the difference in the ship layout, etc.? I've been on holiday 3 times to Dubai - February, March and October and have a friend who lives there. February and October weather was hot during the day (32C) but bearable, and only about 10C cooler in the evening. In March we could feel a 'bite' to the heat which meant that it was beginning to get uncomfortable walking about outside during the day, even the breeze was hot! May to September is VERY hot. My friend says everyone stays in air conditioned buildings and cars and avoids being outside during the day. That's why it's cheaper to go there during the summer months. She says there's also often a sand haze which can affect the breathing of those prone to chestiness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcarney Posted May 12, 2016 #44 Share Posted May 12, 2016 We sailed on Vision in April (second to last Western Caribbean sailing out of Tampa) and would sail on her again in a heartbeat. Thoroughly enjoyed that cruise, it was our favorite out of all we've taken thus far! The ship, crew, and food were excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindyJohn Posted May 13, 2016 #45 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Need expert advice. Exact same itinerary, from Dubai to Venice. Vision of the Seas in April 2017 and Legend in May 2017. A few concerns: both older ships, but lots of positive feedback. Afraid it will be too hot in Dubai in May, but Venice is warmer in May. Huge price difference, much cheaper in May. Any suggestions are welcome. We've been in Dubai in both April and May. It's going to be hot either way. You get double points for suites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MindyJohn Posted May 14, 2016 #47 Share Posted May 14, 2016 How's Dubai in March? that's when I'm going :eek: Our visits have been after cruises and we've only experienced between April 20 and May 15. My best guess is you will not need a coat in March :D although the desert at night may be chilly if you go out for one of those evening jeep safaris.
