Chose this cruise because it was a five night cruise out of Tampa and wanted to experiance Key West. My husband and I cruise very often and have experianced every cruise line. But RC is by far the best for us. The staff, food, balcony cabin, it was just a joy to be sailing on this ship. We were lucky, on the week we chose, there were very few children, spring breakers or pre teens. I just have to tell you the entertainment was top notch. Standing ovations every night! The cruise director was awesome. Our waiters, Richard and Glen in the main dining room, you could not ask for better service. We're use to the food on cruises so we know what to expect. Not Ruth Chris Steak House but pretty good. Getting on and off ship very easy. Just the best! By all means, cruise the Brilliance of the Seas .
