We got a late start due to fog and embarkation was a mess, but once aboard the crew made it easy to forget. The ship is clean and well maintained. Have fun, relax, and enjoy your cruise.
Embarkation
1 out of 5
Our cruise was delayed 7.5 hours due to fog. Once embarkation started Royal/ Port Tampa was very unorganized and it was pure chaos. Probably will not be cruiseling out of Tampa again.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
Staff was excellent on board, food and drinks were perfect.
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
Brilliance is an older ship, though very nice, there is not a whole lot to do other than drink, sit at the pool, or casino. They have a lot of trivia and activities like that, but so does every cruiseliner.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
The nightly shows were great, performers and production were on point.
Children's Programs
No kids.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Our dining room staff was phenomenal. Even the servers that weren't assigned to us were very attentive and polite. Very personable. All other staff was great as well.

4 out of 5

5 out of 5
Very clean and comfortable. No complaints
