It was a wonderful cruise on a great ship. We were very disappointed that we had to miss the port of Dunedin and cruising through the Milford and Dusky sounds due to weather. Seeing the sounds were the main reason that we chose this cruise. by cwerneke

We had a great time on Ovation. The ship was beautiful and clean. Staff and crew were absolutely first rate. The only thing we were disappointed with was not being able to see the Sounds. Royal Caribbean could not help that and it was only for our safety.

Nice But Not As Advertised by bracfb

Sail date: / Traveled as: Large Group
Ship: Ovation of the Seas

I was way disappointed in loosing two Hawaii days port of call on Maui. I understand why but I thing RC should have tried a little bit harder to make that up in Hawaii. We live near both Seattle and Victoria so they were not a interest to us.

Whales, pool time, WOW by kcl9257

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Ovation of the Seas

Bucket list trip for some of my fellow cruisers. The dining was good onboard. The weather was dreary until we got off the ship in Canada, then it was sunny and warm. Great views, fun ship.

Great cruise, food was fair by coastieincal

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Ovation of the Seas

Great time. Drink package very expensive but you pay $12-20 per drink otherwise. Staff was over the top, exceptional. Ship was very nice with lots to do for an active family. Wish we had gone 1-2 weeks earlier as more would have been open and nicer weather.

Amazing Alaska Cruise by FoxFamily03

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Ovation of the Seas

The cruise was amazing. Alaska is beautiful and pictures don't do it justice. The enormity of the mountains and landscape are indescribable. We were supposed to do Glacier Bay the morning before Juneau and skipped it for some reason..... Disappointed.

Excellent experience by lodatojane

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Ovation of the Seas

Very pleasant, exhilarating experience! Relaxed and still saw phenomenal sites and wonderful experiences. Also, for those without children, there was only 295 kids among the 3,500+ adults.

Beautiful scenery! by pricebecky1

Definitely one of the best cruise experiences I've had. From the reservations made with , to the offboarding process, it was really a joyful experience. I would cruise on Royal Caribbean again and use to book it!

Solid cruise---Awesome destinations, some challenges with food on the ship by marbryson

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Ovation of the Seas

Great ship, excellent staff. Something for everyone on the ship. I'm not a fan of the a) wifi for Android users (our iPhone folks seemed to have better connectivity--Androids had to "forget" the network multiple times per day to login to the Royal app) b) the meats are not impressive at all After the negative is out of the way, there's a LOT of positive to chat about. Solarium was great. Quiet enough and semi-easy to find a space to hang out. Seemed to be a very popular place. Cabins were well maintained and well attended. Staff was exceptional and friendly. It was interesting to chat with staffers when they had a minute about where they were from and such. Ship is HUGE. I had over 9k steps per day just getting around the ship. Not a bad thing but still a little much. Elevators were almost always a wait.

Overall, great cruise. We hit the rainy season so we were all wet even though we prepared. However, the ship, as stated before was wonderful and everyone was very helpful.

Nice ship, a few disappointments by sabzweig

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Ovation of the Seas

We mostly enjoyed it all. There was a LOT of stress getting to the ship - our companion's air travel was delayed, then cancelled (booked through Air2Sea). They ended up having to spend the night in another town, pay for baggage twice and just making it to the ship on time. The ship was nice, lots to do, it rained a lot, but it is Alaska, so was kind of expected.
