Top class in almost every respect. Our second Seabourn cruise and this one for 14 days. Public spaces still look classy ( perhaps not the Club which is dark) but our 5th deck cabin's carpet is looking past its best. It was kept immaculately. We could not fault food or service standards. Breakfast is a repeat affair but there's plenty of choice. We really enjoyed Earth and Ocean for dinner. Solis ...
On 17th March 2024 we went on a 14 day Caribbean cruise with Seabourn on Ovation. This review reflects our experience on this new ship. We have previously had two 14 day Caribbean cruises on Seabourn Odyssey. This has greatly affected our views about the new ship and may differ greatly from someone’s views taking their first Seabourn trip.
We have previously been extremely impressed with the ...
Seabourn Ovation was a very good experience as we like a peaceful cruise, excellent service and do not require many activities. The food and service in the main restaurant has greatly improved since our last cruise and is outstanding. We particularly enjoyed the speciality nights at The Colonade. The new restaurant Solis had just opened. It has a great ambience and spacious seating area but the ...
I just sailed on the Seabourn Ovastion with a seven day cruise, everything was as advertised and a great product value for money. The staff members are very attentive to your needs, and the cruise director especially so a lovely lady named Loula Geater was excellent in all facets odf her job. The food was to die for , the Seabourn Square with their cappucinos and lava chocolate chip cookies, the ...
We are still onboard the Ovation, coming to the end of our two week cruise. We are in the Wintergarden suite with an adjoining Veranda suite on deck 8. The accomodations are spacious, but showing wear; especially the sofa and dining
table. The two chairs in the room are not comfortable chairs for getting cosy and reading. The mattress is worn on one side and there are lots of soft, but lumpy ...
After 4 previous sailings on Celebrity, we wanted to experience "ultra luxury cruising." We are an active couple in our early 70's and often felt that the bulk of activities on board were geared to elderly people preferring a slower pace or being content to read books, play mahjong, bridge and participate in trivia tournaments. The Seabourn Square was an incredibly sleepy area (like being in a ...
We enjoyed our 7 day cruise on Ovation in the Caribbean. Seabourn is truly all inclusive. Most cabins on this ship are basically identical other than location (there are a few larger cabins but most are the same). There’s no reason to pay extra for on ship experiences other than the spa or the casino or shops. We paid for a cabana in the Retreat and for a special wine dinner, but for the $ ...
We're an active, mid-forties, couple who enjoy the freedom to holiday how we want. Seabourn is a significant misfit for people like us.
First of all, there were no people like us on the boat. In five days, we think we at least saw everybody once. There was one other couple our age and they were feeling the same as we did, like misfits. The average age of this cruise couldn't have been less ...
We chose Seabourn Ovation as we wanted a small ship, quality cruise without too much formality and found the perfect match with Seabourn. We have read some other recent reviews and are at a loss to understand some of the negative and insulting comments that have been made, certainly it was not a floating retirement home when we were on board, although granted it does have a higher proportion of ...
The 2 week cruise we took on Ovation around the Caribbean in March was our first on Seabourn. We had previously done 25 cruises with other lines. It certainly lived up to our expectations in terms of added luxury. Our standard level suite was well appointed with a beautiful bathroom and good sized balcony. There was a sense of space in all the public rooms and on deck. We enjoyed being able ...
