Review summary

The last 2 days of very rough seas, we had bad cases of sea sickness. Decided that cruising is defiantly not for us, and never plan on booking another.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Easy

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5

Everything was the same every day and as the days went on, fruit and deserts looked old and spoiled. Everything tasted the same.

Onboard Activities

2 out of 5

I did not enjoy them. Everything was centered around a bar.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

The only entertainment that was enjoyable was Anna and Pepe

Children's Programs

We did not have any children with us

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Our room attendant was wonderful (Ramil Jiminez)

Ship Quality

2 out of 5

Needs much needed updates. Room was not cooling enough. Room refrigerator did not keep items cold. No microwaves. Not impressed.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5

Ramil kept it very clean. Not comfortable with the temperature (it was turned down to the lowest setting) and the refrigerator needs to be replaced.

Ship tip

It's a very old ship. Very limited on meals that are included on your deal. Pools are very crowded.

You get what you pay for typically. Winter months can have rocky seas

That’s too bad, cuz for the most part, it’s smooth sailing. Seas can bother me too, but in over 30 cruises, only twice I’ve really felt sick.

Cruising isn’t for everyone, although most people love it. There are several options you can do to alleviate or prevent seasickness.

Great cruise, but not for everyone

9 Nights Wasn’t Enough! Radiance of the Seas is a Great Smaller Ship!

Good Mid-Winter Break
