The
overall theme of the Solarium on board Serenade of the Seas is
that of Bali. A self-contained tropical paradise is available for
guests when the weather is cooperative or not so. The retractable
glass dome can protect this area if the weather becomes unfavorable. Left : These pieces flanking the entrance to the Solarium and Shipshape Center are titled 'Temple of Worship' by British artist Chris Marley, 1948. Right : This Balinese sculpture was provided by Novidis Architectural Moldings of France. |

The
Temple Gate Falls provides an exquisite backdrop for the Solarium.
These features truly create an otherworldly atmosphere that appeals to
guests who really do want to get away from it all while on
vacation.
Located within this area is also a bar and the Solarium Café serving up snacks such as wraps, hamburgers, and pizza. |

Having been initiated early in Royal Caribbean's fleet is the popular Windjammer Café. This venue is the answer to casual, buffet-style dining and is available for breakfast, lunch, and casual dinner. |

Contrary to early days when a single buffet line was the norm, serving stations now disseminate longer lines and provide varying themes. |
) |
Guests who would only like certain items can find them quickly by means of the stations and proceed to find a table from there. | |
) |
What has been a trademark of Royal Caribbean's Windjammer Cafés throughout the years is the dominating nautical theme. | |

Aquatic,
lively blues are contrasted by rustic woods and trimmed with other
materials customarily found on sailing vessels. Left : British artist John Harris' work, 'Waiting in the Sun' is an oil on canvas piece. The inspiration for this painting is the mood generated from the light of the sea. |
