Coastal - West Coast Cruise Reviews

Spent the most on Princess and worst experience

The food was great as well as the staff in the dining room. They knew us by name every night and had our drink order at our table for us!

Food so bad and entertainment so below avg that we will not book Royal Carribean again.

Radiance of the Seas is an Old Outdated Ship in need of a Bad Makeover. No 1st Class amenities. Dining room is small and Crowded. Most of Ship Has a Strong Odor Of Cigarette smell and Staleness throughout. Entertainment is Mediocre at Best. Geared to Much Older Adults and Not Entertaining.

Fabulous! Love the staff, especially Nelson my cabin steward and Kaylin personal trainer and Spa staff who made it extra special! I got to do everything I wanted to do and more.

I don" want to do this 50 charachter rating thing!

15 years ago one of us had an excellent experience on NCL to Alaska. One of us had never been on a cruise. We decided to take this short, 4-night cruise, to decide whether cruising was something we'd consider for future vacations. NCL of 15 years ago bears no resemblance to NCL today. Thank you NCL for confirming our preference for land based, independent vacations where we are not on a corporation's schedule, telling us that we must enjoy offerings of limited interest to us, and leave with the opinion that dining on a cruise is somehow unique and superior to anything we can find on land for a lot less money. This cruise was at half the capacity of the ship. Can't imagine how miserable the experience would have been with twice as many passengers.

Just okay. Was looking forward to my family’s cruise but then there were certain things that did not make sense and was unable to some activities due to limited times.

It's sad but the Guest Services interaction totally ruined my first cruise experience. Anything we went to them with was deferred to another party on the ship or ignored completely.

Id not do it again, nor would I recommend this cruise. I love the all day at sea because I love the water, lots of sea life to see, but the ship is not great for entertainment.

We really had a good time. We will definitely go on another cruise onboard any Princess ship.

If you have the flexibility, look for "drop and go" fares which become available close to sail date.

Enjoyable, like to see more free on-board credit provided by princess cruise.

Double check the ships billing. I ordered the PLUS beverage package through Princess Cruises for 2 rooms, 4 guests total and got way over charged and only got 2 packages, 1 person in each room (which they dont even do). It took a total of 6 hours to resolve. Twice at 3 hrs each at customer service. Plus at checkout it was still incorrect. Very frustrating. That was a big bummer, very stressful for a 3 day cruise.

It was a bit chilly , but we managed sunshine for the most part during the port excursions.

The cruise is designed for mass marketing and you get what you pay for. The ship seems very big, with a confusing layout, and very little cultural or informational talks are offered-not even port talks the night before.

I booked this cruise at the last minute, and was very pleasantly surprised at the quality and aesthetics of the ship, the friendliness and helpfulness of the crew, and the amount of activities offered. I took part in a lot of the activities and found them to be entertaining, informative and fun. This was a repositioning cruise so itinerary was only one way, however I would take this cruise again if available in the future.

Fantastic short cruise - that almost felt like a longer voyage. The passenger load were typical Princess folks and the overall experience was not different from any other Princess trip. Lucky enough to participate in the Chef's Table one night, see whales and other marine life on sea days, and enjoy the Sanctuary complete with steamer blankets. Would take this trip again!

For a first time cruiser I was nervous at first. but from the booking process until I disembarked I loved every moment of the time I spent. I am definitely hooked.

I had a great experience on this cruise, staff was friendly, ship was clean and shows were excellent
