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

We were not disappointed with Radiance, despite it being billed as everyone's favourite ship. My preference is still Quantum class, however for a short break we were not disappointed.
The cabin was immaculate with everything you would expect in an Owner's suite and more.
Dining was excellent, but not better or worse than any other RCI ship we have sailed on. Really enjoyed the main dining ...

The circumnavigation of Australia and South New Zealand was awesome. Each port was different and offered a lot of variety.
So itinerary awesome
Dining: Main dining room ok but not great. Some nights I had trouble choosing from the menu. The steak was thin and not very tender. Service good and sometimes great!
Windjammer good but inconsistent with offerings particularly for ...

I only have a few complains One I have is with the room service. When did RCL start charging for room service? Eight dollars a pop for ice tea to be delivered is way out of bounds! I understand how that can be abused, however there needs to be a happy median.
The shows mostly started at 6:30, that was too early for us, as we had the dinner seating at 8:00. The next shows time was 8:30.
A ...

We chose this cruise for the itinerary. Wanting to see more ports in Australia. We were not disappointed. The Great Barrier Reef was the highlight. So was holding a Joey. The cruise staff was entertaining and friendly. Shout out to Bradley of the cruise staff and shout out to Kevin Philips who entertained us in the pub every night. The cruise director ( Gordon) sang on the last night of the ...

I choose to do this crusie as I wanted to do my own thing for Christmas and New Years.
The Interna Stateroom was fantastic couldn't fault it in anyway except the fridge didn't work but I didn't need to use it.
The embarkation and the disembarkation was the smoothest run part of the cruise. Unfortunately they Port disembarkation was a disaster, at Arkura we waited 2 hours for the tenders to ...

We wanted a short cruise in order to relax before the stresses of Christmas. We certainly found the right one to do it! Although we left Sydney late, due to someone being disembarked because of illness, the cruise was very relaxing, exactly what we needed! The only "bad" thing was our room steward who was either new or very disorganised, as our room, some mornings, took a long time to be made up. ...

Chose this cruise because it sailed around both Islands. I have never been to the South Island before. I caught up with Mum in Tauranga. A cousin in Wellington and a brother Christchurch. I love Wellington.
The South Island is amazing to see, different scenery to the North and in some ways a different culture. The South Island appears to be More English in culture.
The ship itself, ...

We love the Radiance and cruised on her in 2015 and then Nov/Dec 2018. In 2015 we thought the food was ordinary to say the least but our latest cruise (2018) the food was excellent and so was the service. She is a lovely light and airy ship. We loved her glass floor to ceiling windows in the Windjammer and her lovely open air dining area at the back of the Windjammer. We also loved sitting in ...

Dream vacation after doing the first leg in 2008. Menus didn't change much in 39 days in the Main Dining Room. Fish was disappointing, bland and mushy. Steaks were poor quality on the Sydney to Honolulu leg , so never tried them again. Specialty dining was excellent in Chops and Sabatini's, but over cooked in Samba. Really enjoyed the Mystery Diner Theater although it was the same scenario as ...
