Oceania Cruise Reviews for Luxury from Southampton

We'd been sailing with other lines for a few years and decided to go back to Oceania mainly for the smaller ships. Right from the start it was bad. Didn't get into our stateroom until at least 3:00 p.m. The balcony was so noisy we couldn't use it, the shower so small my husband had to open the door to pick up the soap if he dropped it, the bottom of the shower was filthy and the beds were mush. ...

I cannot reiterate how bad this cruise was. There was no communication between crew members and guests.

I have cruised with Oceania before. The previous was last year on the Riviera, and I gave top marks for most areas that make cruise successful and worth the money. This time the whole cruise was poor. A small cabin, and a bathroom more or less unusable. The first bad sign was boarding at midday to find no table left in Horizons. Obviously the American passengers have special privileges. I cannot ...

It all started on the wrong foot. On the morning of our starting flight, which had been arranged by Oceania, we found it was delayed. Panic set in about meeting our connecting flight and arriving at the embarkation dock on time. When we arrived in Southampton, we found a huge "Princess" ship where the Oceania was to be docked, according to our brochure supplied by Oceania. Nobody seemed to know ...
