Review summary

I like the fact that Oceania doesn’t nickel and dime you like many cruise lines.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Very fast and organized

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
I miss Jacques but like the addition of Aquamor. I would rate the food riviera a step above

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Really didn’t do much. Pool impossible to find seating. My husband tried to play pickleball. Too windy and courts not regulation

Entertainment

5 out of 5
The comedian was great. The ship’s stage show were not great. Some of the entertainers had zero talent

Children's Programs

No children with us

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
My room steward did her job but didn’t go beyond in any way. Our suitcases sat in the room until the 2nd day and had to request they be stored again. Found some areas could have been cleaner. Top of lamps dusty. Found things that people left whole looking for remote. Obviously she didn’t check between nightstand and bed or under bed Found service in buffet not the best. Waiters standing around instead of approaching. Same in Waves Service in main dining room extremely slow

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Ship is beautiful. My only complaint is that aft elevators end at deck 6. For us the walking wasn’t a problem. For those that did they had to walk across deck 6 to get the elevator down. The circular staircase is beautiful but on the difficult side to get up and down side I like that the doors to bathrooms open automatically when u wave your hand across the green light

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Cabin well appointed. Bathroom great size.

Ship tip

If u r handicapped in anyway stay towards the front elevator
