Riviera Cruise Reviews - Tips

Afternoon tea at 4pm has some great finger food!

BREAKFAST ON THE STERN TERRACE

Enjoy dinner sitting on the deck of the Terrace Cafe during beautiful sail away from Montenegro!

Try the open seated dining. You meet the most interesting people.

Very little advantage to Concierge Level Veranda over standard Veranda. I recommend standard Veranda or upgrading to a Penthouse Suite. Room service is exceptional and I highly recommend, especially for breakfast.

Don't book any future cruises on Riviera nor on Oceania Lines. Quality of food and service has diminished since takeover. If you want this type of cruise, then book on Carnival or NCL. Will never take another Oceania Cruise again...this was supposed to be a 14 day dream cruise which turned into

Shows were a bit late 9:45 so plan your dinner accordingly.

All dining experiences are excellent. Enjoy your veranda as you are sailing in and out of each port.

On the MS Riviera eet interesting and friendly fellow cruisers. Expect the loveliest pampering of your life, 24/7 room service, lounging on a beautiful pool deck, boutique shops, spa and gym, library, computer room, culinary and other classes, never having to pack a suitcase until disembarkation.

Make specialty dining reservation online early.

Definitely book dinners early for the 4 specialty restaurants because they are outstanding and get booked up early.

Bring light cottons and not anything with spandex. Bring anti humidity hair spray or prepare to wear hair back. Take advantage of walking the ports instead of all the excursions. Loads of fun.

Penthouse Suite as a minimum. The experience is significantly upgraded.

It's a wonderful ship with a great crew, stay away from PH 11062.

Relax and enjoy --the staff will take good care of you

Enjoy yourself !

Liked the Red Ginger restaurant the most. Ate most breakfasts and lunches at the Terrace. Wanted bananas at the Wave for breakfast, but not there. Why?

Tge buffet is very nice with good choices and excellent service. You can eat lobster that is cooked in front of you every night if you wish!

Jacques and Red Ginger Specialty restaurants were very good.

Plan on eating dinner at the buffet if you have a 10 plus hour tour. You may not want to shower and change clothes.
