Review for a Australia & New Zealand Cruise on Radiance of the Seas

We travelled to Sydney to board the Radiance for a 12 day cruise around New Zealand on 28/1/17, having booked the cruise approx 9 months previously via the local Flight Centre with Circular Quay being the boarding point. On 25/1/17, I was formally notified by Royal Caribbean via email that the boarding would occur via White Bay and tendering to the ship from there, that it "may take a little ...

Very easy ship to get around. most of the staff are very polite & helpful, like anything there are always a few who are the exception. The company should address the smell at the stern of the ship, seems like a vent for drains(or similar). Embarkation was a bit of a pain but not too bad, some people seem to think that 2000+ passengers can be magically transported to a ship anchored in the middle ...

Radiance is a good, well-maintained ship, and the crew mostly does a good job onboard. We enjoyed our time, food and related service were better than good and quite satisfactory. Ports and itinerary were well chosen. Cabin was good (could use more 110 outlets), steward was excellent. There apparently was a very small norovirus outbreak, and the crew went way above and beyond to nip it ...

Off to a bad start, as we had to tender out from White Bay to the radiance, very slow process in the HEAT!
Once aboard there was a noticeable difference between the radiance and the voyager (we went on VOTS last year) Having four 17-19 year olds with us in 2 families, and travelling out of school holidays what a bliss!
No DreamWorks characters or ice skating rink we really didn't ...

We chose rci because we have been with other cruise lines and thought it might be worth a try. The ship itself is ok. If you like a floating ATM. Eg, a $4.50 bag of maltesers, $12.99.
A $4.50 toblerone, $29.00. Even the people who serve you know it's over the top because they tell you the price before they ring it up.
There is to much hard selling, everywhere, if I wanted people annoying me ...

The worst cruise that we have ever had----they use the word "ROYAL "In their trade name ,the word Royal invokes class --this company definitely doesn't have class ,none.
To start, we where staying in a hotel 15 mins. from the port--left the Hotel at midday got on the ship at 5.15pm.,,five an a quarter hours to embark RCL decided it was a good idea to have two of their ships in port at the same ...

We have done 4 cruises with RC in total. Our first family cruise was on Radiance in 2012, and we loved it - amazing food, great atmosphere. So when we booked a family cruise for our parents 50th anniversary, we chose Radiance again, to find many changes - not for the better. The 2 couple cruises we did were no better - we will be trying other cruise lines.
FOOD: 2012 food was incredible - huge ...

From the moment I embarked, I realized this ship was in desperate need of a makeover. Not just the very dated decor in the public spaces and the tiny balcony suite, but the kitchen as well. The food in Cascades, the main restaurant, is dreadful -- the worst I've ever had on a cruise. Last night I sent back the foul tasting horseradish crusted salmon, and the chicken dish that replaced it was ...

Reunion with Family from NZ and Canada .
On boarding the ship no one was available to direct us to our cabin .No sign of any staff so different to any other cruises we have been on ,
On arriving to our cabin we unpacked our cases and put one under the bed and the other on the two seater (lack of space for storing bags ) Paper rubbish under the bed and under the cushions on the 2 seater there ...

Here's the feedback I gave Royal Caribbean on this cruise:
The ship is beautifully designed with lots of natural light. There also seems to be more public space than Voyager, resulting in less queues and a much less crowded feel.
I continue to find the pressure selling of everything from art to shoe inserts and supplements annoying. It's not a 'seminar' if it's really just another attempt ...
