We just returned from a 10 day Mediterranean Cruise aboard the Marina. The overall cruise was great, but traveling on Oceania before, there were some areas of disappointment we experienced on this ship compared to our last voyage on the Regatta.

I would first like to start off saying the ship is beautiful. The staterooms are well appointed, the bathrooms wonderful and spacious with bathtubs and a separate shower, the beds plush and comfortable, and nice size balcony with the ability to open so we can share the balcony with friends in the adjacent cabin.
