The employees at Oceania Cruises with the highest salaries must certainly be those paid to create the beautiful brochures which describe in detail the cruises and shore excursions that one will experience aboard their ships. They are masters at selling travelers a vacation that apparently that is far different than the one you will actually experience.
We were so very excited to spend our honeymoon aboard the Oceania Regatta in the Caribbean. What could be more romantic than a 10 day multi island tour aboard a luxury sailing ship? Well, nothing – if you actually choose a luxury cruise line – which I assure this is not.
The rooms are tiny, and the bathrooms so small you can almost touch the walls from one side to the other with your arms extended – and we were in a concierge level cabin. The very small balcony – or veranda as they call it – is just adequate – with barely any privacy as the people on either side of you are separated only by a thin metal strip so you hear every word they say.
Cabins were entirely too small, especially the bathrooms. The decor was unremarkable and nothing about the cabin felt special. The bed was comfortable and the daily service was well done.
