Radisson Cruises began in 1992 with their Seven Seas Cruises Fleet, which was an off-shoot of their successful six-star hotel chain. Once travelers associated the upscale hotel brand name with the "Seven Seas" line, the "Radisson" was dropped from the name in 2004, even though ownership remained the same.
Based in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, the Seven Seas fleet consists of five mid-sized luxury vessels offering Atlantic cruises, Eastern Mediterranean cruises, Western Mediterranean cruises, Alaskan cruises and more.
As previously mentioned, all the stately rooms on the Radisson Cruises Seven Seas offer ocean views and private balconies. The sheer size of these rooms, which range from 300-square-feet to over 2,000-square-feet, rivals Carnival Group or Royal Caribbean, even though the ship itself is smaller than its massive counterparts.
The main theme of the Radisson décor is spaciousness, which comes in handy when navigating through breeze-ways, decks and public spaces. The light colored woods, autumn hue fabrics and marble bathrooms exude comfort and elegance. Bathrooms have a separate tub, shower and vanity areas, which makes getting ready for dinner after a few hours down in the pool more enjoyable.
In terms of demographics, many of the Radisson Cruises patrons are affluent, in their fifties and sixties. Cruise activities are generally unstructured, allowing passengers to plan their own activities, rather than follow a structured daily schedule. However, there are scheduled ballroom dance lessons, art auctions and wine tasting as well.
There are musical revue shows, comedians, educational lecturers and cocktail parties daily. There are some casino activities, but not many flashy machines. There are fitness classes and modest gym facilities for the exercise nut. Many people like to play ping pong, jog around a track, practice golf, swim in the pools and kick back in the hot tubs.
Spa services like hot stone massages, aromatherapy, hydrotherapy and other anti-stress treatments are also available. Whether you cruise Mediterranean, Atlantic, Pacific or Alaskan waters, you'll have a blast onboard.
