What a ship!

The buffet food was better than most cruises and the manager of the Windjammer came on and announced some things, told us to have a great day and always had an amusing saying to finish with. Having to wash your hands on entering the buffet was terrific and meant I did not see a sick person on the ship. Also, there were a lot of hand sanitizers which is great. The food quality in the restaurant ...

We chose this to experience a new ship with all the bells and whistles. Embarking on Freo was a nightmare taking 2 hours but once on board that was forgotten. The crew were fabulous and couldn't do enough for us, always smiling and happy and breaking into song and dance in the Windjammer, Stateroom was always tended to twice or three times each day. We ate breakfast in the dining room, ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 50s

We chose this cruise as it was its first time in Australia they over emphasised the fact because when we got on our interpretation from the advertising was different the services were appauling. When we embarked we waited 3 hrs just to embark the line was huge and there was no effort to keep the line moving. We eventually got on and on one of the nights the ship movement was bad mostly everyone ...

This would be cruise number 8 each being with a different cruise line. Read the reviews and hoped it would be different for us. The embarkation took a ridiculous two and a half hours, not a good start to any cruise. Went to our balcony cabin, which being a new ship was fine, nothing special however. Checked out the Windjammer buffet a huge area with poor quality food, when compared with other ...

We decided to try a larger ship and seeing this was Ovations inaugural cruise to Australia it was a good chance to experience this brand new ship. As we have travel with Royal Caribbean before we looked forward to the experience. We embarked from Fremantle but although we were assigned a boarding time it appeared that it was a a first come first served fiasco (we have had a similar problem there ...

Background info, we are seasoned cruisers, opened minded people and don't let the little things get in the way of a great holiday as life is too short! We jumped on the Ovation of the Seas from Fremantle - Adelaide just before christmas. We were able to handball our 3 children to our in-laws (thank-you!) so we could have a 5 night break from a busy year and be a couple again. Our children were ...

We had a buy one get one free with a bulk-booking company in Perth and have sailed with RCL 3 times before but this made us wonder why they even bothered. We heard from other passengers there was a problem with 150 employees from the very beginning who were unsuited when it came to employing them, so it was always going to be short staffed but people sailing from Singapore got the brunt of it. ...

We chose this cruise so we could visit Australia and New Zealand in the one trip. From the moment we stepped on board yes just through the doors it was sell, sell, sell. Please let people board and get their bearings if you want to book a meal in one of the restaurants or in the Spa it's quite easy it doesn't need to be constantly in your face on boarding as they are still doing it every day of ...

Royal Disappointment - Radiance

We were so excited to be taking a 17 day cruise in Australia but the disappointment started before we left the USA. We chose "My Time Dining" (hint: NEVER DO THIS) and made reservations on-line for all 16 nights. About 3 weeks before we left the reservations for 2 of the 3 in our party were cancelled without any notice from RCL. Apparently they felt it appropriate for my wife to dine alone ...
