Brilliance of the Seas Cruise Reviews - Reviews

The Cruise was worth the money.  Good deal on the balcony.  Basically what I expected.   Service and food was not that great, but for what I paid that is OK.

had a great time.  Jungle buggy excursion was awesome.  Loved snorkeling.  Good food, easy to find your way around ship.  Staff was very friendly and helpfu

We  have been on 6 cruises with other cruise lines.  Our daughter chose this cruise and invited us to come along.  This is the first cruise where I lost weight.  The food was not tasty nor was it appealing.  We even did a specialty steak house and the waiter brought me rare when I asked for medium rare.  Another of our party asked for rare and hers was more well done than mine. 

I had safety concerns because the deck surrounding the pool was very slippery  I watched several people fall.  The stateroom was OK.

The entertainment was less than average.  Won't go on this cruise line again

Had a great time on the cruise.  The only complaint was the windjammer.  The food was not warm and not much selection as on other ships we've been on.

We had a wonderful time on the Brilliance of the Seas. The ship was a little older so it left a few small things to be desired but we were super impressed with the friendliness of the staff.

I wish there were a little more to do onboard but the comedian Steve and the singer Jesse were awesome. Dining staff were wonderful.. We had Emmanuel and titana every night.  The were so funny and entertaining. The ship is older but it was still beautiful and full of stuff to do..  I really enjoyed watching movies on the pool deck. Plus my larger oceanview room is so big and wonderful..Our cabin Stewart I meade was great!!  I will go again for a good price just so I could do more activities on the ship.. As me and my family was to lazy to do the mini golf course and rock climbing wall. Great staff, good food in the dining room, in the windjammer which is the buffet I love sitting outside on the back of the boat. 

We had a great time on the cruise.  Really enjoyed dining at the budfet in the  Windjammer.   Adelyne was great.  She was always very happy, happy.  The excursion was fantastic, doing the underwater diving helmet, being able to touch the fish was great and the guide and divers were fantastic.

Overall the cruise experience was good.  We traveled on Royal Caribbean before.  and  enjoyed ourselves. However this time  time every time we returned to our room we had to pass through this foul stench in the hall. That made returning to  our room very unpleasant..

Being this was our first cruise we didn't know quite what to expect, but we were very surprised to find out how much fun and relaxation could be found at such a reasonable price.  The only thing I would change or recommend for the cruise line would be to limit the smoking area in the Casino... that was the only negative experience of the entire trip.  

Nice cruise. However the cruise was more for the very mature audience.  The cabin was nice and our steward John was outstanding.  The customer service personnel was also fantastic.  Our cruise director Sandie Salph is FANTASTIC!  Her due diligence assisted in us having a wonderful cruise.  We'll always use Sandie as our cruise director.

Ship very clean. On board shopping limited and extremely cramped but some fairly good deals. Cozumel has little to see but lots of little shops for souvenirs and gifts; excursion to mainland necessary if you want to see ruins. As with most cruises, everything costs extra but overall it was what I expected and enjoyable. Evening shows and entertainment worthwhile.

We had friends from Europe surprise us by joining us on the cruise.  That said we did not have Dinner seating together but the WONDERFUL staff.. began trying to work it out for us to have a table together, in the meantime we found another couple that we had cruised with before and they had 2 more couples traveling with them...again when the AWESOME staff found that out!! Wa La...we had a table for all 10 of us together!! NOW THAT IS SERVICE!!!! After this second day out everything else was as near perfect as possible!  Magnificent cabin attendant (Wayne)...Fantastic Waiter and assistant waiter (Sergio and Fardeem) .. really good shows...great food...great staffing...what more can we say except AWESOME JOB!!!

People were very nice. You lacked a lot in entertainment. Should be something going on every night on the deck. Dancing in Star Quest started to late. Food was good. Need to serve popcorn in the movies. I will take this cruise again because I like the length of it. Just need more entertainment. to dance the night away to. Should be a band on the deck sea days day and night.

We departed from Boston of all places was at sea for the first three days and arrived in beautiful St Kitts. This was the first port of call on this cruise and may I say that it was the most beautiful island I have ever seen absolutely no poverty any place on the island, very friendly people and gorgeous beaches. 

The ship itself is a very beautiful the staff were all so friendly and helpful. Our waiter in the main dinning room was the best he would do just about anything he could to make the cruise exactly the way you would like it. Every night the sky was the limit from shrimp cocktail to just about anything else you may have wanted. The entertainment was also very good as there was a show every night.

We go to Florida every year as we are snow birds and we usually drive down from NH but this year we took this cruise that ended up in Tampa just a short drive from our house and let me say we are going to repeat this every year as it sure beats driving.

I loved the Brilliance of the Seas ship and all of the Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines staff.  This 13 night Boston, MA to Tampa, FL cruise via the Southern Caribbean was a "great" cruise, and my wife and I loved it.  There was only one low point: the "Cook Like a Bajan" excursion that was located in Barbados.  The restaurant was at a lovely location, but the management staff were impolite and they did not honor the details of the advertised excursion (it was only worth about a third of what we paid)... but one bad apple doesn't spoil the whole bunch... I still love Royal Caribbean.

A great cruise with an amazing crew.  Leaving from our home port of Boston is the best.  We wish there were more options to cruise from here.  Our room steward, Gerald met our every need, kept our room neat and was friendly and open with us.  We also had great service from our Waiter, Admir , his

Assistant, Tientien and the Head Waiter, Maria.  Dining was a pleasure with them and because we ate at the second seating we had lots of time to get to know them. The food was adequate but not spectacular.  The fish entrées were disappointing as they were often "fishy" tasting or overcooked. All in all, though, there were plenty of choices available. The ship was clean and easy to navigate.  We wish there had been more activities and music on the pool deck-they seemed to only offer that once we were on our way to Tampa after leaving the last island.  Everyone seemed sincerely eager to help, answer questions or find solutions to queries.  We would definitely not hesitate to travel again on RCL'S re-positioning cruise out of or into Boston!

Loved the ports and pricing. A nice and relaxing cruise. Great for snowbirds. 

Went with family and a friend. This cruise allowed us to spend time together yet split up and do individual things on and off ship.

It was a peaceful and relaxing cruise with some great islands to explore. Not many kids and a lot of cruising time to spend with each other, doing what ever we wanted.
