Review for a Transpacific Cruise on Radiance of the Seas

2-5 Cruises • Age 70s
Big plus--It offered more time at sea and visited ports on our "bucket list".
This trip has lots of high points and some that were rather mediocre. The service was excellent and we became on a first name basis with our waiter and assistant waiter, Anil and Diana (Liying). They were a delight. Our cabin attendant, Butu, was also very friendly and kept surprising us with towel animals. The ...

As per normal boarding was easy and well organized.
While there are parts of the ship that do need some attention I have to say it was a great cruise.
Of course the norm now is to smash you at every turn with drinks packages, Rest packages and now even ship tours.
The other regular thing that seems to be the norm is price increases and it never ends.
We were on this ship in Feb and did ...

Specifically chose this cruise as a means of visiting French Polynesia (Tahiti, Morea and Bora Bora).
Booking, registration and embarkation all handled with ease - somewhat disappointed with the tired and dated condition of stateroom - corridors smelt musty and rooms were drab with brown curtains and dated timber furniture.
Our particular stateroom also had a bad drainage smell which ...

I have come to a couple of conclusions and the first one is that everyone has a different cruise depending on who you come into contact with and every ship has it's own personality.
This is my journey on this trip.
We arrived in Sydney the day before as we always do and stayed in Pitt street.
AS the Ovation OTS had taken our port spot we actually had to tender to get on the ship, which ...

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 ...

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 ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 70s
I chose this cruise because I wanted to see New Zealand without the hassle of driving. It is also cheaper this way as NZ is very expensive. Much cheaper to cruise and do local tours.
This cruise is charged in US$ and tours are expensive.
Careful selection of your cabin is essential because noise from the engines has to be blocked out with ear plugs, however; the vibration cannot. Lower aft ...

We went as 2 friends in our early 30s. My 4th cruise, his first ever. Both first time with RCI and we were very impressed. Here are some general overviews of the highlights, various observations, and with tips on how to get the most out of the ship. Longer sailings are just better!
Demographics: Full sailing of around 2200 guests. Probably 80% Australian, 10% New Zealand [like myself], 10% all ...

We chose this cruise as it went to places we had not visited (Fiji and Tonga) as well as ones we wanted to go back to (Isle of Pines). It also finished up in New Zealand which gave us the opportunity to spend a week at the end of the cruise there before heading back to Australia. Royal Caribbean have Family Rooms which suite larger families (we have 3 kids under 10) which we could not find ...

The embarkation and disembarkation were smooth with disembarkation being sped up by customs visiting us on the ship to get that all organised before reaching the dock. We ate a few meals in the main dining room using mytime dining and had no issues as my son and I were more than happy to share with others. The staff were all incredibly friendly and made sure that we were always well looked after. ...
