Riviera Cruise Reviews - Reviews

Highly recomend this ship for a great cruise experience.

Second trip on Oceania Riviera and second time with highly enjoyable experience. From captain on down to room and wait staff, all top notch. Will look forward to our next Oceania cruise.

this was a cruise to get away from the craziness of Christmas and we accomplished it; very relaxing, with good food and nice weather

Loved the ship. Going back to the Caribbean for the 15 th time was boring. Not much to do after show time.

Was so excited as we heard Oceania was a "Luxury" cruise. Staff unhelpful and cold. Anything you asked for was an issue. One day someone took the plant out of their room and put it in the hallway, it sat there all day, feel over and dirt all over the hallway from 8am to 7 pm until I finally went and got the concierge. Specialty restaurants food was amazing, service was awful except Toscana, they were great. Every restaurant we were seated and I had to get up after 5 minutes and ask for a waiter. Red Ginger we had a table reserved for 2, met some people asked to make it a 4 and request "denied". They all said we are very busy on 7 day sailings, then dont do 7 day sailings if you cant accommodate. One girl Ana who was a hostess in Jacques was a huge help. My wife had a diet request, upon boarding we asked for the restaurant manager twice or food and beverage, never called us. Asked Ana and she had it taken care of in 5 minutes. The food and beverage manager did call the second to last night after speaking with the concierege and his response was I didnt get any message and your request was taken care of so whats the problem????? Well it was the 5th day. The service didnt compare to Azamara or NCL in the Haven. I think Oceania does themselves a disservice and brings their brand down with this sailing. Everyones excuse is this is a short sailing and its the Caribbean so dont expect much

Very elegant classy ship, very good restaurants and choice of style of cooking. Not the most lively of cruises, only one entertainment going on at any one time. It did feel that they were struggling to find things of interest in some ports. This was a trip to see the autumn flora but the ship sailed mostly at night so little opportunity to see from the ship. All that said we thoroughly enjoyed it. It was less of a traditional "cruise" experience and more like an up market floating hotel.

The cruise was very interesting and the Riviera was excellent. As always, food was superb and accommodations very comfortable. Anywhere you go on Oceania will be a great experience. Be prepared for expensive tours - they were well done but the Shipmate tours were also very good.

Europe was my greatest experience But Oceania Riviera dropped the ball on their Culinary this time. I was very shocked since my last experience on this ship was on January 2019 and the food was amazing. Sorry, but I have to be honest.

As first time cruisers we had no expectations or experiences to base our trip on. That said, I don't think we could have found a better ship/crew combo to start our cruising journey with. Oceania and the Riviera made our trip completely problem free and enjoyable. We had a great time and look forward to joining one of their ships again sometime soon.

Loved this cruise, however it was very hectic if you want to see all the towns and surrounding areas of the ports you stop at, would go again since the cost is so beautiful

Absolutely perfect weather every day. Smooth seas and very congenial passengers all in all a good cruise

The Oceania Riviera ship & crew put a smile on our faces front the moment we stepped on board to the day we stepped off! Outstanding

The Atlantic crossing was an amazing way to relax and decompress. We used the sea days to catch up on our sleep, but we were never board. The cooking lessons and cooking demonstrations are particularly excellent on this size ship.

Enjoyed everything......hard to imagine how it could be improved very much. Oceania seems to think of almost everything to make the experience great

This was my 17th cruise, but first on Oceania. I may be spoiled, but I liked my experience with Viking and Crystal better because they were all inclusive; whereas Oceania found additional things to charge for. Oceania's "free" week of WiFi was frustratingly hard to access and then very slow. Their communication was poor. We were given different information depending on who we asked. Aside from that, it was a wonderful cruise.

Love the Riviera , service excellent as always but feel the standard of the food is dropping versus previous 3 cruises on her

I BOOKED THIS CRUISE TO SEE HAVANA AND TO VISIT TIKAL(IT'S PIC IS IN THE BROCHERE}. IT WOULD HAVE BEEN MUCH BETTER IF I HAD DONE HAVANA ON MY OWN , I HAVE BEEN HERE BEFORE. TIKAL WAS NOT AN OPTION SINCE IT IS 12 HOURS AWAY. USING THE TENDER SERVICE WAS A MISERABLE EXPERIENCE. WE WERE PACKED IN LIKE SARDINES. I COULDN'T EVEN MOVE MY FOOT. HORRIBLE!

This was the best cruise line we have ever been on. Beautiful ship, wonderful staff, great room, outstanding food. What more can I say! This will not be our last cruise on Riviera.

Very relaxing and top quality food.. speciality restaurants are the best. Dinning room and buffet hours are limited. Dinner does not start till 6:30 local time.

Very nice cruise ! Relaxing with great food. Ship is beautiful. She is going into dry dock soon for some updates. Happy cruising🚢
