Review summary

We were very pleased with our cruise on Ovation. The staff was very friendly and worked hard to make sure we were having a great time. The ship was clean. It's a very beautiful ship that looks like it is very well taken care of. The ports of call were perfect and the excursion options were plentiful. We were very happy with the options available to us.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
We got through quickly but the Seattle port is a bit disorganized, which is no fault of the cruiselines.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The MDR was tasty and the staff was very attentive. We had the best steaks at Chops. They were tender and seasoned just right. The Windjammer had a great variety of food and the staff was very attentive there as well.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
The cabin seemed smaller than what we'd had in the past but we managed with 4 of us. The bathroom always had a sewer smell which was off-putting.
