Review summary

Ship, rooms, entertainment not worth the money. I would not go on this line even for free. The food was very good but the rest not good. The staff tried their best but not up to par compared to equal type of ships. I had to go to the doctor on board. The doctor and staff were very good but the facility was not. Not very clean and a matter of space again. They asked me to give them a urine specimen. I had to go through a sick persons room in order to get to the bathroom.

All good except last night in the Polo Grill. Food was late in arriving (two hours) Not nearly as tasty as previous visits.

The string classical band was terrible located in one of the lounge areas. Weather did not allow for any outdoor activities.

Ship Quality

1 out of 5
Common areas were very clean. Rooms were petite. The smallest I have ever seen on a cruise ship. The bathroom was even more petite. The shower was so small you could not turn around in or the shower doors would open up. Their was about 3 inches of space to clear around the bed which made me trip over the bed frame that was sticking out.The night stands looked like a young childs being it was so small. We had a cabin with a balcony and paid a lot of money to sail on an Oceania ship. Definitely not worth the money compared to at least 3 other shipping lines.

Cabin / Stateroom

1 out of 5
We upgraded to a cabin with a balcony which we could not use on account of bad weather. The cabin was very clean but way too small for the average person. Y0u would have to upgrade to a suite in order to be comfortable.

Ship tip

Do not select the Reggata unless you want a tiny cabin at an overpriced amount.
