Wonderful, relaxing cruise. A good way to escape winter.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
We were one of the last groups to embark, and our wait time was very reasonable - around 15 minutes
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
Food and beverage are always great with Oceania! We never order the beverage package but find plenty of opportunities for free cocktails and 2 for 1 drinks at happy hours. We also love the country club casual dress for the Grand Dining room.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
This was a short cruise, 7 days, so only the standard activities were offered. We also enjoy the team trivia and I Th we competitions for the “Big O” points that can be redeemed at the end of the cruise for Oceania t-shirts and other merchandise.
Entertainment
4 out of 5
Tim Brumbeck, the pianist they brought on for this cruise, was incredible. The rest of the entertainment was ok.
Children's Programs
No program for children on board - and we didn’t have children with us.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Service in general was outstanding. A few personalities weren’t a great match for their job (ie social hostess wasn’t very personable).
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
This is a small ship, so it was very easy to get around. The area around the buffet was tight. The ship was very clean!!!
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
We opted for an Oceanview for this cruise. Although it was small, there was ample storage so we didn’t have stuff sitting out. That made the room feel very adequate. We also spent very little time in our cabin as the weather was beautiful, so we were outside most of the time. The bathroom was tight and the shower was VERY small - I opted to use the spa showers most of
the time.
Ship tip
Share tables for meals. You get to meet all kinds of people!
Port was being worked on, so it was nice, but directions provided by tour company didn’t match the layout. We found our tour, but it took a little while. Port was clean. Sufficient shopping.
