"We walked off the ship and onto a shuttle bus to take us to the port's cruise terminal, where there were more shuttle buses to take us to -- the nearest little town, NOT to Bruges.Before the cruise, after I booked the cabin, I went to book shore excursions online and I was confused by "(Destination) On Your Own" shore excursions, which were expensive and apparently consisted of bus transport to and from the city and nothing else...."Read More

1-10 of 199 Oceania Marina Gourmet Food Cruises Reviews
It’s been over 10 years since I traveled with Oceania. Our overall experience was positive. The ship is in need of some renovation as it is showing signs of aging in some areas. We werein a standard veranda cabin, and was satisfactory. The beds were very comfortable and the room layout satisfactory. The shower is quite small and a larger person would have difficulties. The dining experiences ...
The obvious reason was ship included Antarctic on this trip, as well as most of S America. Great trip though, excellent staff in restaurants. Food, which used to be excellent was average at best. Repetitive menu in Main Dining Room after 12 days. Portions were minimal at best, You could actually tell that a cost reduction was in effect by selections Simple things like coffee, which used to be ...
Great experience all way around. Stateroom was on the 7th level. My room keeper was excellent. Room was prepared immediately after I left. He noticed any repairs that required fixing and had a service person take care of it at once without delay. Very friendly and helpful.
All staff on board were extremely friendly and helpful.
Food was very tasty with great variety over the 24 days. ...
Our first cruise since 2012. Everything on Marina lived up to what we remember in terms of great and attentive service. there are always a few crew members who show indifference but the vast majority were wonderful. The measure of service is whether the service during the last 36 hours of a cruise was a good as the first 36. Oceania pretty much nailed it.
The Spanish Market dinners in the ...
We chose this cruise because of the itinerary. We have not cruised on Oceania before, but got the brochure and it had places we wanted to go. This was our first post -covid cruise.
We had bought our cruise just before the Simply More promotions- so wine was not included.
Overall, it was a very nice ship-we had a few issues with the trim in our cabin popping off and problems with the sliding ...
My first cruise with Oceania was in 2015 on the Riveria. Terrific itinerary from Athens to Barcelona. We enjoyed it immensely. Not so much years later. I felt stuck in a time warp with the EXACT SAME formulaic routine. Boring !
Oceania could be a fantastic option but has failed to keep up with the times and is stuck in an era that my mother barely remembers ! I love the idea of a quieter, ...
This was a somewhat spontaneous cruise for us, as we had an unexpected travel window open up. After searching various destinations and travel options, I found this one with the PERFECT itinerary and booked a cabin just a month before departure. I've read various reviews and they are all either glowing or damning for Oceania and I really wasn't sure what to expect. What I kept saying to my husband ...
After the Covid drought, we decided to undertake two cruises virtually back to back to ease ourselves back into the wonderful world of cruising. The two cruises we chose were – one a 10 night sailing on Oceania’s Marina and the second a 14 night cruise on one of Celebrity’s newer ships, the Apex. Both very different offerings. This Review will focus on our experience on the Marina, our first ...
Oceania is known for finest cuisine at sea but it seemed its quality has gone a bit downhill. The dish presentation is very dull and seemed many people can do a better job at home. In general service is good but could be better as it named itself as luxury cruise line.
Entertainment is limited as the ship itself is not big. Sometimes you find not much to do on the ship. Luckily there is music ...
This was our second cruise with Oceania, although we are frequent cruisers. This cruise did not disappoint.
The staff were excellent, extremely friendly yet professional. It is lovely when they remember your name and I marvel at their ability to learn new names every few weeks!
The ship was spotlessly clean and had plenty of seating and pool chairs all the time so there was no sense of ...
