Just finished my first trans-Atlantic cruise on Oceania's new Vista. What a special experience. I have loved cruising on other Oceania vessels (Marina, Riviera, Nautica) over the years and was really looking forward to being on the new Vista and it did not disappoint. The ship is lovely, the service, food, and quality outstanding. The staff is very professional, friendly, and service oriented. ...
This was our third Oceania cruise and the first on Vista (previous ones on Marina and Nautica). It was also our first transatlantic and we were really looking forward to all those sea days – we knew it would be a much more relaxing holiday than O’s usual port intensive cruises.
We’d flown from our local airport to London, on the Sunday, staying overnight at Heathrow, then on to Miami the next ...
After exclusively sailing on Oasis Class ships for the previous 10 years I was concerned about going down to Freedom Class with a sailing on Independence. A quick look at the recent reviews here further confirmed that this would be the worst vacation of my life…
I’m very pleased to say that we thoroughly enjoyed our cruise and would absolutely sail on the Independence of the Seas again! Perhaps ...
We were on the Grandeur for a 16 night cruise from Miami to the southern Caribbean then up the Charleston, SC and New York City. Overall, it was a wonderful cruise.
The highlight of the cruise was the dining experience. All the dining venues offered delicious food and very good service. Natasha and Monique were seemingly everywhere in the restaurants and helped make the experience as good as it ...
Our Regent experience was pure luxury from the moment we boarded our included first-class flight to Miami, to the beautiful Biltmore Hotel pre-cruise stay included in the price, and the transfers to and from the airports to hotel to ship and back. I thoroughly enjoyed paying one price before the cruise, and then didn't pay a single penny more from the time we arrived at the airport. We even ...
Wonderful, wonderful experience! My travel-adverse husband was so happy with everything that we came home and booked our second cruise with VV. Here's what we did:
Day 1 - embarkation was smooth and took us only 10-15 minutes. We had booked one of the Rock Star suites so had priority boarding which made wait times much better. Our room was a Cheeky Corner suite that our son recommended. It was ...
My trip to international turf floating on international waters with friendly faces and exceptional service on VIRGIN VOYAGES was top rated and pure fun! The ships food and entertainment was very divers and provocative and will have you wanting more. I'm really regretting I haven't sea traveled before! Now, All I can say is Cheers to VIRGIN VOYAGES for setting up an experience of a lifetime! If ...
It was a great ship. It took me a day or two to get familiar with the layout, but after that, it was easy to navigate around.
The food was excellent. The buffet offered a wide variety of options, ranging from simple finger food to Asian and East Indian cuisine. The specialty restaurants were amazing and the food was top-notch.
The staff and crew were friendly and super helpful. It's ...
The staff on the ship was amazing and the customer service was first class. The food on board was first class and choices were great. The entertainment was fun and the WPT Poker room.was cool. The itinerary with Cozemel and Bimini wasn't the greatest and the beach at Bimini was too crowded for our liking. The Happenings Cast was super fun and provided a variety of on board experiences. There are ...
Huge but spacious. Just like every ship you quickly become familiar with the layout. Plenty of complimentary eateries around the ship. Show are just as spectacular. However no indoor solarium with pool. Plenty of seats, We were rained out the first sea day and once docked, no sprinkles but heavy and steady rain. We sail with approximately 7000 passengers which approximately 2700 were children ...
