Loved the Baltic! by PND

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Brilliance of the Seas / Destination: Europe - Northern Europe

Nice ship although dated. Really enjoyed the itinerary although some ports were far from town and shuttle buses were expensive! Service was good all over the ship. BORING menu in the main dining room after the 1st few days. Very repetitive. Nothing special for formal nights. Would recommend happy hours and a dedicated water bottle filling station! TOO many emails prior to the cruise and TOO much paper during the cruise. Account information should be available on stateroom t.v.

Fabulous Cruise across the N Atlantic by diannearcher

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Brilliance of the Seas / Destination: Transatlantic

Brilliance was a nice ship, with great staff. Everything is well done and organized from start to finish. I like that the captain talked to us from the bridge every day. Food, activities, staterooms, everything well done. I could have lived with only one port in Ireland. did a great job with helping me with my cruise planning. I called many times with questions, and Chris was always super nice and helpful.

Our first Transatlantic by jmstana51

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Brilliance of the Seas / Destination: Transatlantic

After doing our first Transatlantic, we can see why many of our fellow travelers have done multiple cruises like this. Plenty to do and can adjust to time change gradually. Despite some entertainment that was not ideal, we would do a cruise like this again.

Relaxing by tinaosborne

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Brilliance of the Seas / Destination: Caribbean - Western

Do not buy the Key Program through Royal Caribbean. It was a waste of money and the crew said this ship doesn't really follow through with the Key Program.

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Brilliance of the Seas / Destination: Caribbean - Western

was happy with everything on boat. was very unhappy with buggy/snorkel excursion. never told buggy was a stick shift. we only got 30 minutes to snorkel, as next stop was red flag. why didn't guides communicate with that stop that is was to rough. they should have taken us to another spot. we paid $70 each to snorkel for 30 minutes. guides were great

First time cruisers will enjoy this ship, not so for others by sued4312

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Brilliance of the Seas / Destination: Caribbean - Western

First time cruisers may enjoy this ship more that a seasoned cruiser. Read everything on your contract Drinks are overpriced, pkg for drinks is crazy. They make you buy two pkgs one for the other person in your room, even though they DONT drink! Two words for this entire cruise LACKS PIZAZZ!

Good cruise by scottfergen

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Brilliance of the Seas / Destination: Caribbean - Western

told me that was no formal night but there was so my wife and I did not bring clothes. To many young kids. Twice the pool was closed because kids threw up in the pool. Really need to do adult cruises or not allow kids in the main pools

Lovely five day cruise by bharvey737

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Brilliance of the Seas / Destination: Caribbean - Western

It is sometimes difficult to find a Key West, Cozumel cruise leaving from Tampa, but this is one of my favorite cruises. Royal Caribbean does a great job of making the days at sea full of things to keep you entertained. The food is good the room comfortable with fun stops and plenty to do, what more could you want? I’ll be back...,

Nothing but Sun and Fun! by ghuber

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Brilliance of the Seas / Destination: Caribbean - Western

This was a great vacation and I love Royal Caribbean and all that they have to offer and their great attention to detail and professionalism. Perfect size ship for what we wanted. Did not feel overcrowded at any time even when at sea. Lots of activities to keep people busy that chose not to be at the pool.
