Brilliance of the Seas Cruise Reviews - Reviews

It was half full, not a cloud in the sky, and smooth.

I booked this as a solo cruiser. I have cruised many times before. There is not a bad cruise in my book. My expectations were met, and I enjoyed the experience. A first time cruiser, family or others looking for a lot of action, music, and party times may be disappointed with the experience. The food at the Windjammer was always hot and tasty with lots of variety. The drinks were always good and served with a smile.

Nice getaway. Liked going out of Tampa. Pretty ship.

I have never had anything stolen on as many cruises as we have taken in the past. On both legs of this cruise we had things stolen. We should have kept a closer eye on our Air Pods but was surprised that the security staff could have cared less about the stolen magnetic sign on our door. Then we were treated like we were the thief instead of the victim. Great staff in the Windjammer, cabin stewards, concierge and Diamond Lounge staff.

We enjoyed getting back to cruising. Looked for a short cruise to "test the waters". Never sailed from Tampa before. Ship, though smaller, was enjoyable. Brilliance staff worked very hard to make it as enjoyable as possible.

We were back to back and on this first leg had our Air Pods stolen. Then my husband fell down the stairs. The crew were so fast to respond and the ships doctor and nurse came immediately and he was treated in the infirmary. They changed his dressing every other day or every day depending on the doctors orders. I was very impressed. Everyone was so pleasant and made us feel comfortable with the entire process.

Relaxing cruise with a great crew on a beautiful ship.

We had a rough first few days because of bad weather but we made the best of it and enjoyed Bingo,Kareeoke etc indoors.

We had a great time. Service was exceptional, ship was clean, food was decent but like I mentioned badly in need of refurbishment.

The ship, staff, food, entertainment and activities and shore excursions were all great!

Our cruise to costa maya was ok . It’s just what’s at the port unless you want to pay a fee for excursion . Not really a lot there

We took what was "ours" during this cruise. We partied with a ton of new "best friends". A number of "there she is" and "there they are" still echo many of this ship's hallways. Took me four days to recover to 75%.

Costa maya was very nice . I was there 2 times in January .they have pools and swim up bars at the port

The ship itself was beautiful. My first time on RC. Since my main goal on this vacation was to relax, it was hard for me to be disappointed. All the staff were great.

Great Holiday cruise. Staff is outstanding. Nice ship.

Amazing christmas cruise. Nice staff and everyone enjoyed. I reccomend sailing on brilliance!

Overall it was great. Easy to navigate and was beautifully decorated for Christmas. We also watched the salute to Veterans, and it was quite moving.

It was amazing! Love RC!! Clean, deco was stunning

Great cruise, nice ship and outstanding crew. The ship was 1/3 full which meant no crowds, no lines. The best crew on the sea! A very relaxing time. The ship was going out to sea for 30 days with full crew due to the prohibition placed on cruises leaving the US. I begged them to take us with them to pretend to be a customer. Sadly they couldn’t.

Great family cruise. Kids had a wonderful time. Lots of spring break college students which was only downfall, as it was hard to find a spot on sea days.
