We chose the Oceania Vista because it was a smaller ship. The staff were so nice, friendly, and accommodating in every way. The rooms were beautiful and the bathrooms were the biggest and nicest we have ever seen on a cruise ship and we have taken about 35 cruises.
The food was absolutely delicious! The only problem was the quality of meat at the specialty steakhouse. It was very tough and ...
We recently disembarked Oceania’s newest ship Vista here are our experiences.
Flights arranged by Oceania we do Not recommend please contact me for specifics.
Pre hotel arranged by Oceania in Miami the Elser hotel. We do not recommend we had to wait 6 hours on an open hot roof for our room to be ready. There is no restaurant in the hotel nor is there a coke or snack machine. We had to cross ...
The cruise staff was very very nice. That's the only positive thing. The cruise was attended by emptying 3 or 4 retirement old folk home. Maybe, 10 people under 70 and there were many people were on walkers and wheelchairs. In addition, the very few activities were canceled when a gastro infection was taking people down. No daily lively entertainment. This cruise is for recovering from a ...
Oceania Sirena - Miami to Panama City - March 7-17 2024
This was my third cruise with Oceania. The first was the Eastern Mediterranean in 2009, the second was Northern Europe in 2012. I really enjoyed those two cruises; this one, not so much. Based on my experiences on this cruise, it's unlikely I will take a 4th cruise with Oceania.
Let's start with the good. The food was excellent. I did ...
We are long time Oceania customers (7 cruises) but had to cancel our last two cruises because of COVID and health issues. Therefore we were looking forward to our back to back cruises with a line that had always met or exceeded our expectations.
Things got off on the wrong foot when the company changed their business style. They went to Simply More. Before we were given onboard credit to be ...
This cruise left out of Miami and ended 10 hellish days later in Panama City. We started out with rough seas by the second day, not Oceanias fault, so we missed our first stop. We had already been notified that our Columbia stop had been canceled. The. Cruise line never offered any compensation for these two cancelations. Then around day four we noticed that their sanitation procedures were ...
Prior Princess cruiser for 25 cruises. Last cruise the food was bad. My second on Oceania . The food was excellent overall, especially the beef. Had the lobster several times and it was bad and small, even the supposed whole Maine Lobster in The Polo Grill.sometimes mushy like frozen and poorly defrosted , sometimes just bad taste. Avoid it. I will in the future. Go with The Dover Sole.
The ...
We wanted to experience a small ship cruise line and chose Oceania. We are an experienced Cruiser primarily on Celebrity. We wanted to see if the 25% differential between Celeb Acqua Class and Oceania was worth it. It's NOT. Average age on this cruise was Near Death. It should be sponsored by a Funeral Home or Long-Term Care provider. The food as advertised was very good. The Specialty ...
First off, this was mine and my husbands first Oceania Cruise! We have always stayed in suites on Royal Caribbean Oasis Class Ships and preferred the larger ships. Some friends of ours recommended Oceania for the food and luxury side of the cruise. My husband loves to cook and they told us about their Culinary Classes. They did tell us that we would be younger than most people on the ship. I’m 43 ...
Really poor cruise experience on Oceania Vista. This was our first cruise with this line. After reading all their hyped-up claims about best food on cruise line, best service and curated ports, this was all a huge disappointment. I found their food to be no better if not worse than any other cruise line. While they do offer what seems like more expensive selections, I thought the quality of ...
