FREEDOM FAMILY SHIPS!!!!! There are 3 of them. And they have soo many activities. They are the only class of ships with the boxing rinks, waterpark and the Flowrider(surfing simulator). But the Voyager family ships have everything you mentioned except the boxing, flowrider and the waterpark. They have really great ships! The staff is wonderful on all RC ships but these have the most things to do and activities. Wether your young or old RC has something for EVERYONE!! Its AWESOME we love it!

If you want ALL the bells and whistles, you want a Freedom class ship:
-Freedom of the Seas
-Liberty of the Seas
-Independence of the Seas (just inaugurated).
Those will have the surf simulator, the water parks, the ice rinks.

Voyage-class ships will have the ice rinks and rock walls, but not the water parks or surf simulators. Those are:
-Adventure of the Seas
-Explorer of the Seas
-Voyager of the Seas
-Mariner of the Seas (also has a teen club)
-Navigator of the Seas (also has a teen club)

Have fun!

In order to include all the extras you are talking about, the ship must be big. Thus, we have to limit the discussion to the Voyager class (Voyager, Explorer, Adventurer, Navigator and Mariner of the Seas) and the Freedom class (Freedom, Liberty and Independence of the Seas). Royal Caribbean is currently building an even bigger ship, currently referred to as the Genesis project. Two ships have been ordered and the first one will not begin sailing until 2009.

All the Voyager and Freedom class ships have multiple pools, an ice skating rink, a rock climbing wall and a miniature golf course.

In addition to the above, all the Voyager class ships have an inline skating track. Instead of an inline skating track, the Freedom class ships have a Flowrider (the surfing simulator). In addition, the Freedom class ships also have a miniature water park known as the H2O Zone. Royal Caribbean has not revealed all the features of the two Genesis project ships.

Here is are a couple of pictures of the Flowrider ...

All of the above pictures are from the Freedom of the Seas. The ice rink and pools on the Voyager class ships are similar to the Freedom class ships.

The ships were built in the following years:

1999 - Voyager of the Seas
2000 - Explorer of the Seas
2001 - Adventurer of the Seas
2002 - Navigator of the Seas
2003 - Mariner of the Seas
2006 - Freedom of the Seas
2007 - Liberty of the Seas
2008 - Independence of the Seas
2009 - Genesis I
2010 - Genesis II
2011 - a 4th Freedom class ship?

Hi there, my family and I have just been on the Liberty of the Seas in Ferbruary cruising around the western caribbean from Maimi. The ship was fantastic and has a ice rink where we watched a show one night and also has the flowrider which is the surf pool on the top deck.
I think it also depends on where you want to cruise to as some of the ships such as the Liberty seems to only cruise around the caribbean (eastern or western). Hope this helps! x

Freedom of the Seas!
My husband and I went in February for our honeymoon and it was awesome! (:
So much to do- the rock wall is the largest and the ice skating rink is amazing!
It has everything you want and is the largest ship out right now (:
