First Time Cruiser • Age 60s

Balcony room nice. Shower so small ,but made it work. Ship staff were awesome . Lack of fresh vegetables on menu was sad. When offered such as coleslaw or cucumber salad in main dining a tablespoon was served and usually hot and wilted and flavorless. Desserts were very sad . Whipped topping is not Mousse . Overall ship well maintained ,Captain praised staff and and rightly so. Good ...

We decided to do a quick holiday cruise after several years of not being able to. We found a good deal on the cruise itself with prepaid gratuities and some onboard credit as well. Captain Marek was still onboard for our sailing although I believe he was leaving after our cruise. He is definitely one of the nicest and most enjoyable Captains in the Royal Caribbean fleet. Although I saw reviews ...

This was our first cruise in over four years, post covid, of course and yes, things have changed. Because we live a few hours drive from Vancouver, this was an obvious port choice for us because it meant we didn't have to fly anywhere. We heard lots of horror stories on board of people whose flights had been cancelled/delayed, luggage lost, etc. and we were happy to have escaped that. We ...

I was last aboard Radiance in 2017 for a seven night cruise from Seward to Vancouver. She is aging well and remains a typical, classic cruise ship reminiscent of days gone by in comparison with the newer mega ships with dozens (or so it seems) of water slides which threatens to turn a cruise ship into a floating water-themed amusement park with a few other venues thrown in for good measure. For ...

See below for comments on the music. We chose this cruise to visit Panama and Columbia as well as the typical Costa Maya, Belize, and Cozumel. The welcome aboard in the "Centrum" was Horrible, long lines accompanied with very loud Disco type music and irrelevant announcements being made over the loudspeaker. We waited in the overcrowded "windjammer" buffet for our rooms to be released. ...

Before moving to a comparison I will do a review of the Royal Radiance 9 day sailing 9-18 Feb. Six seniors traveling together taking advantage of very attractive pricing on this sailing. First time for some of us out of the new RC terminal facility in Galveston. What a nice experience it seemed we were slowing them down from loading us it went so quickly. From curb drop off to onboard less than ...

We primarily chose this cruise because the timing was perfect for 6 people and Galveston was a handier trek from AZ than the mayhem of a Florida embarkation. My husband and I took an Uber ($67 + tip) from Hobby to the Harbor House hotel at Pier 21 where we were staying overnight. Rooms are nice and their continental breakfast is sufficient to tide you over until you are aboard the ship. Hotel was ...

Winter was coming and after our "return to cruising" in 2022- the one thing I really, really needed after 20 days at sea was a longish cruise :) Nine days was just right and Oceanview cabins were very reasonable. We decided to fly vs drive- fares on Southwest were quite good, and Southwest does not charge for checked baggage and has good legroom. There were even a few "new to us" ports. Seven ...
