We have sailed with Royal Caribbean 4 times before but were disappointed this time. The Radiance of the Seas was to have some minor changes before we got on but they were cancelled, until March and were done with passengers on the ship. Noise, smells of expoxy, glues and metal being cut were a daily thing for approximately a week. They took out passenger seating by Lattitudes cafe to move their Next Cruise office there. Now when you buy coffee, hot chocolate and get a snack you have to navigate to another deck or back to your cabin, customers in mind I think not. There are a lot of minor repairs that should be made that are not.
We were in cabin 7110 an accessible cabin. Cabin and room steward great, but when you pushed button to open door you had to count to 5 and when you closed it you had to pull it to make it latch. The door would not open one night so the room steward put in a call and by struggling we got in. It took 2 more calls and a visit to customer relations to get it fixed. The above mentioned was the fix...count to 5 and once the door closes push or pull to secure your room. Were also replacing carpet in public areas and working and painting in the solarium pool.
Internet costs are extravagant. Sell, sell, sell is their motto now from pictures to specialty restaurants. We could not go to the Windjammer without being asked to buy something. For 33 days this became very aggrivating and not only to us.
Cabin being accessible is larger than normal balcony cabins and has a larger balcony that looks onto white cover over tender boats.
It is very close to centre elevators and there are no cabins across the hall.
Beds were comfortable enough and there was plenty of shelves and hanging space for clothes
There were actually two spaces by window that were set back were we could store luggage. Negative to this room - every night around 3 in the morning there is a lot of noise from below which woke me up
Because of mobility issues we have limited excursions tp pick from. This suited our needs and was interesting
Late, rainy , cold. Rush drive up mountain to Hilltop cafe and given a half hour to get something to eat and drink with a warning to be back to bus on time, Took 25 minutes to get 2 teas and carrot cake and 5 minutes to eat and a min to take pictures and then rushed back down and dropped off
Took train from ship and walked and shopped in town
Took ourselves on walking tour. Went to Cadbury chocolate factory Bought a few items as prices the same as we can buy at home. Prices must have been better or product not available as people were really stocking up
Was ok, basically a bus ride with stops for picture taking and views of the ocean which was beautiful
