I took this cruise with my DH right before Christmas and enjoyed experiencing the holiday season in an all new way. The Brilliance was everything CC members had said it was. There were windows and water views everywhere, good food and great service by all ship personnel.

We stayed two nights pre-cruise at the La Quinta by the airport which was a great location with two shopping malls within walking distance and lots of choices for food and entertainment including a cinema. The hotel was adequate. The location fantastic.

We boarded the ship in less than 30 minutes after catching an earlier van than we had expected at 10 am. We were some of the first 25 people in line waiting to get on board and catch outside view elevators up to lunch. Loved that on this ship you could sit outside in the open air just steps away from the buffet.

Cabin Review

Large Ocean View Stateroom

Cabin H

Very large and roomy. Lots of light from the large round window. The area between the bed and the desk/couch area was more like a dance floor. The cabin was not noted as an accessible cabin but it could have been. Would be great for someone with a scooter or a family with children. A little rocky when the sea was rough as it was the second cabin forward on a higher floor.
