Royal Caribbean Radiance of the Seas Cruise Ship

December 2013 to South Pacific Islands

We checked in prior to our check in time around 2:00pm from Circular Quay, Sydney. The check in process was very quick and we were issued our set sail pass. There is also a Tourist Tax Refund Counter to claim tax for items purchased over $300 in a single receipt. Once on board the cruise ship we were allowed to go to our rooms, which was already ready. Our room numbers were 4512 and 3625. We had a large ocean view stateroom, 4512 and a interior stateroom, 3625. Both rooms were alike except the ocean view room had a window. I was impressed with the room size as it was not as small as expected. The bathroom and room was very clean throughout our stay as the room is cleaned twice a day. The shower cubicle was suitable for us but can be small for people on the larger side. Read more
