"The smoke from the smokers area by the pool could always be smelled in the stairway by the front of the boat.There were so many other cruise boats docking at the same time that once our tour was over, we went back to the boat...."Read More

DO NOT BOOK AN OCEANA CRUISE

In May 2022, my husband and I along with 4 others in our group, put deposits down on what I thought would be a cruise of a lifetime. So I thought. Barcelona to Dubai with visits to Israel and Egypt was what sold us. Fast-forward to 2023 and this cruise itinerary was basically scrapped including Israel, Egypt, Jordan & Oman (and rightfully so because of the war.) However, Oceana replaced these ...

Written while still on board. We chose this cruise largely because of the port visit in Morocco. A week before sailing they canceled that port for security reasons and substituted Cadiz. Then after embarkation they did another schedule change, which put us in Santa Cruz, Canary Islands on a Sunday. Unfortunately, this being our longest port visit, from 7 am to 11 pm, there was nothing to do since ...

Our 32-day cruise included many planned ports impacted by the war. The result, after our last Mediterranean port, we had ten consecutive sea days on the way to Dubai. The cause of the changes was understandable. That would could not cancel was not understandable. The ticket contract holds with port changes, understandable for operational and weather issues. But massive changes should release ...

We are a 70+ couple with over 60 cruises under our belt. We did this cruise mainly because of the ‘best food at sea’ Oceania prides itself. Well, we found that this claim is not much more than just advertising. The food was good, but certainly not at the level of a six star ship. We normally do enjoy dinner in the main dining room, but on this ship the menu was very limited and uninspiring. We ...

10+ Cruises • Age 70s

My husband, brother-in-law, and I chose this cruise because of Oceania's small ship experience and its supposedly supurb cuisine. We booked side by side Conciegre Veranda suites. While the stateroom steward was wonderful, the room was not. The room was cramped and the bathroom was miniscule. My husband and I have taken over 30 cruises and this was by far the worst. We took a cruise ...

We chose the cruise for the itinerary and supposed quality of the cruise. The itinerary was great, but the cruise was nothing special compared to any others we have taken. The stateroom bathroom was exceptionally small. We had an Oceanview room on the 6th floor toward the front of the boat. The room was larger than most as the balcony area was inside the room. Because we were over the ...

We chose this cruise because it was a smaller ship ( 680 guests) and because it was Oceania - a higher end line. We have sailed on Carnival (1x) Holland America (1x) Royal Caribbean (2x) Celebrity (2x) previously. We booked 2 years prior to sailing and we were looking forward to it as we hadn’t travelled due to COVID. The ship was small and because of that, (we had a balcony cabin )the ...

This was our second Oceania. But we have done a few other cruises over the years. The newly refurbished Nautica was very beautiful. Couldn't get a suite so we were on 7th floor with Balcony. Small room- Impossibly small shower and we're small people. Rarely got hot water. But the room Steward was outstanding! The food in all the places- specialty as well as Main Diningroom just VERY average! ...

Friends had spoken well of cruises they took on Oceania (before the pandemic). Our originally scheduled cruise with Oceania was cancelled due to Covid, but we cancelled before the cruise line did, so we could only get "future credit" rather than a refund, which we would have preferred. We used the credit to book a cruise on Nautica to Spain, the Canary Islands, and Portugal. We enjoyed the ports ...

The price was good and the date fit our schedule. The cabins are in need of an update, but they are due for one shortly. The tv needs to be across from the bed, instead of at a weird angle. Our room attendant was very good, and we could count on him to get it right. The restaurant servers were hit and miss. Some were excellent, and some clearly did not enjoy their jobs. The shows were pretty ...
