Review summary

First time cruiser with husband and friends and we all loved it. We watched shows and did some group activities on board and watched some live bands. There was so much to do and see that we didn’t have time to get bored. Definitely will be going on a cruise again.

Quiet cabin with plenty of space. Not a lot of motion but if you have issues with mobility it’s a distance from lifts which suited me. Would book this room again with virtual balcony

Ovation of the Seas 3 day adventure

1st time on a larger ship and totally impressed with RCI and Ovation 3 days not enough to get used to this cruise liner.
