Radiance of the Seas Cruise Reviews - Reviews

Our cruise was everything and more than we expected. The ship was beautiful, the help was super friendly and accommodating. Very relaxing and enjoyable. Nothing bad to say about it.

Beautiful Ship - not too large, but nice to be on a larger ship than Majesty and other ships previously cruised on.

This was our first cruise and I checked out MANY reviews on Cruise Lines and ships to choose. Royal kept coming up the most as the type we would enjoy. It was superb. Will probably cruise now more than going to a resort. Radiance of the Seas was beautiful. There wasn't ANYTHING that was a problem from the moment we got to the port till we departed the port on the last day. Left from Tampa to Cozemel and Costa Maya and all I can say is WOW and PERFECT.

Very good time, plenty of activities - only the shopping activity was a sales pitch- the crew and other passengers were very friendly and a joy to be around. We sat at late dining with another couple and i would recommend as it provided an opportunity to visit and share information about happenings. Thanks to Bill and Carol for being great tablemates!

the ship was very clean and beautiful, with great activities.

My girlfriends just wanted to get away for a few days to rest, relax, have fun and be ourselves. We did all of that and more. Everything from boarding, to disembarking was "smooth sailing". I may even do it again with my husband.

This was my first experience sailing with Royal Caribbean. It was also my birthday on 10-10-10! I wanted it to be a special birthday, and it most certainly was special. The Radiance of the Seas is a beautiful ship; wonderfully appointed. The staff are extraordinary! The food is stupendous! I couldn't have designed a better way to celebrate my birthday. Norman (cabin stewart) posted a birthday banner and balloons on my door! I left them on all week! There was a cake and the birthday song in the dining room. My fellow dining room guests were marvelous! Such a diverse group of people -- I couldn't wait until dinner to hear all about what each had done for the day. I was encouraged to try snorkeling, and I promise I will on my next cruise! All-in-all, I was marvelously surprised -- delighted really -- with my cruise aboard the Radiance of the Seas. There was no down-side. The itinerary was wonderful and I truly enjoyed the Solarium's hot tub and the quietness of the "adults only" location. I simply can't wait until my next RCCI Cruise!!!

just can't say enough. this cruise was just wonderful.

The Radiance was as all RCL ships are, clean, efficient and well staffed. From the moment we boarded in San Diego to disembarking 16 days later in Tampa, we were always taken by the professionalism and friendliness of the crew. We did have a problem with the bathroom leaking, however once it was realised that it couldnt be fixed with us in the cabin, we were immediately moved to a similar cabin without any inconvenience and looked after in addition. The ports in most part were great, particularly Cartagena and Hautalco. The transit of the Canal was the highlight and one can only marvel at the 100 year old engineering. A great cruise which we would recommend to all.

The ship had many problems especially our stateroom. The service was below Royal Carribean standards. The staff could not handle all of the people on the ship. Many were rude and indifferent to our needs. The shopping information from the cruise Director and his assistance was a "rip off". They sold portofolios for $30 with coupons worth thousands of $$ but you had to spend $$ thousands to save $100. The presentation was much too long and not informative.

Our cruise from Seward to Vancouver was an amazing experience, the scenery was incredible! and a cruise is really the best way to see Alaska! The ports of call were interesting and offered a variety of activities, we were pleased with the room and the ship was huge! The only negative would be that we are in our mid/late Twenties, and in terms of activities for us, and 'nightlife' these were lacking in quality and quantity. Overall it was an amazing cruise, and an excellent week to end our trip in USA/Canada

The ship was extremely clean. Facilities were always in tip-top shape. The elevators were usually overcrowded mid-ship and required sometimes lengthy waits. Better to use the forward elevators. I found the pools were a bit too frequently closed.

The ship was very nice, clean design, descent decor, were were very happy with what the ship had to offer.

Everything carried out very timely in orders Great programs, entertainments, sports, plays, even for children Though we did not have children but well control menus, curfew after hours, attention to children needs with children stage plays. Very good staffs; all inclusive Overall god foods; need to improve Asian India diets

As our first cruise I don't think we could have made a better choice. Our balcony room was perfect -- plenty of closet space, great shower, and a very comfortable bed. Room service was quick and friendly. Boarding and leaving the ship was well-organized and went relatively quickly. Overall, we were stunned by the beauty and service on board. We've already begun making plans to return to Radiance of the Seas for another cruise.

The ship was fantastic as always. We could tell they have cut back on employee's and towels. Little amenities were not there. But service was excellent. One thing that was not so great, everyone was trying to upsale us, service or goods. Oh well, we still enjoyed the cruise.

The cruise, our first, far exceeded our expectations. There was no part that wasn't up with the best service ever received. From the convenient boarding, the stateroom accommodations and service, the varieties of food and service, the cleanlinmess of the all parts of the ship, the locations we stopped at, the excursions and the coutesies of all staff members made this a most memorable experience.

The ship is clean, the service is good, the food is excellent. The shops are a bit small. This ship has lots of nice area's where you can sit and chatt or play cards, look out the window, read a good book. The entertainment is good, just not the best I have ever seen.

The Radiance of the Seas is beautiful. Not as big as some of the other ships we've sailed but beautiful none the less.
