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 ...
My wife and I went on a cruise from Miami to Miami, from March 16 to March 27, 2024, in the Oceania Vista ship. Following are our comments:
The ship: The Oceania Vista is a very well designed ship. Not only is it beautiful, but also has many public spaces for passengers and we never felt overwhelmed by the other 1,200 fellow guests. We always found where to sit or sunbathe around the ...
Between me and my wife we have been on 5 ships: this cruise (the Insignia), Anthem of the Seas, Empress of the Seas, QM2 (Britannia Class), and Crown Princess. We have been in inside rooms through verandas. This review is based on both mine and my wife's opinions.
Each of the ships have their pros and minuses and each provides a different experience.
While we both enjoyed the Empress of ...
We chose this cruise after our wonderful cruise experience on the Insignia last summer. This time we took a back to back 7 day cruise to Bermuda. Yes, the same cruise twice. It was a great decision. The new decor is lovely. Our suite was completely refurbished and was bright and airy. Taking the tub out of the bathroom and installing a good sized beautifully tiled shower was great for us. ...

Several months ago, my wife and I decided to do a transatlantic crossing. Having cruised with Oceania before, we decided to book the crossing on the Riviera. Our preference is typically small to medium size ships. The Riviera (as well as the Marina) are a little larger than we typically would book but for the crossing it was perfect.
The booking experience as easy and convenient. Specialty ...
A transatlantic crossing has been on my bucket list for five tpyears but something always got in the way. When my wife and I made the decision to do it this spring we decided to go upscale since we would be on for two weeks with minimal port calls...thus we picked Oceana. We had a standard veranda cabin and the size and appointments were more than fine.
Of special note...the staff to a person ...
My husband has always wanted to do a transatlantic crossing and the timing of the Oceania cruise was right. We both love food and wine and that was definitely a selling point to sail with Oceania, as was the relatively smaller ship size.
We had a fun couple of days in Miami before leaving; no problems getting to the terminal or our cabin once on board.
We found everyone on the staff to be ...
The embarkation went wonderfully – well organized and knowledgeable staff. It was quite rainy and windy on the morning of our disembarkation and we would have appreciated support with umbrella coverage to get into the terminal. The service and the dining are both amazing. We had access to for specialty restaurants with no additional charges. The main dining room was beautiful as was the buffet. ...
We were on Deck 3 with an ocean view on the starboard side of the ship. On Deck 3 all the cabins are ocean view on the starboard size. There are no cabins on Deck 3 port side. There is only one stairway and two elevators serving the starboard side. There are emergency exit forward and aft on Deck 3. The Internet connection and speed were okay for a ship. There are two 110 volts and two 220 ...
