Customer reviews for Oceania Cruises
Vista is the most beautiful ship we have cruised on. I would describe it as understated elegance. The staff were incredible, the food delicious and the ship itself the perfect layout and size. It never felt crowded and the outside areas were spacious with very comfortable loungers. The speciality restaurants were wonderful but we enjoyed eating in the Grand dining room equally as much. The cabin was spacious and the bathroom the largest, most stylish and best storage ever. Entertainment was varied , we particularly liked the 7 piece band. There are so many things we liked, too many to mention, we would definitely like to cruise on Vista again.
Boutique ship, over 20 years old but in good condition, 670 passengers. Nice decor. Generally good service. Good food. Portion sizes uneven in main dining room - some very small, others overgenerous. Our cruise had a large number of sea days and entertainment could have been more extensive. Service in the bars were inconsistent - some bars were table service, others you had to collect the drinks yourself. We missed a port because of bad weather, and there was no refund of port fees. We were encouraged to complete a post-cruise survey BEFORE disembarkation, so we could not include our disembarkation experience. We were told we could do a post-cruise survey at home, but the QR code provided took us to an enquiry form, not a survey!
Riviera is showing its age. Overall a nice ship. Food is excellent in all the restaurants and the staff are fabulous. We found the excursions were very well organised (but expensive). We had the House beverage package so wine or champagne by the glass (no limit) or beers. Coffee, soft drinks and water were all included which was a nice touch. On the downside, the entertainment was not to our taste. We are 67 years old and felt the music (including a string quartet) was aimed at an older audience. The most modern song that we heard the house band play was from 1982. Generally it was Frank Sinatra, the Carpenters etc. Would have liked some more modern music other than in the disco slot after 11pm. We were disappointed that the policy of not reserving loungers was never enforced. I have added pictures to show how the loungers were all reserved early in the day and were never relinquished. The ship accounting was poor. When we boarded we were given $750 on board spend. When we checked our on board account on entering our cabin it showed I was in debt to the tune of $350! We were told it was a mix up and we had been charged again for excursions we had booked pre cruise. We would have liked an on board App like the sister company NCL. Indeed, most lines have n App. We found the booking for the speciality restaurants was confusing. We booked 4 nights before we boarded in line with what the web site advised we were entitled to. On boarding we happened to see the desk where additional bookings were being made and we got a further 2 nights booked. We had a concierge cabin and asked our concierge to see if we could get any other nights in the speciality restaurants but with no success. Indeed we didn’t get any benefit of having the concierge. I guess that 6 nights out of an 18 night cruise might not be too bad but we still don’t really know what we were actually entitled to. Although this was our first Oceania cruise we have taken 34 cruises in all and 14 of those were with NCL so our issues mentioned above were not based on a first time experience of cruising. So in conclusion, would we cruise with Oceania again? Yes, but we would choose a newer ship such as Vista or Allura. We doubt that we would book Riviera again unless the itinerary was particularly unusual or unique.
Ship easy to find your way around. Cabin was reasonably spacious except for bathroom which was tiny with a shower you could barely move in. Our 2 night stay in Miami was disappointing as the hotel lacked good facilities and was shabby. Our itinerary change meant an extra sea day The staff on the ship were all excellent without exception and the staff seemed to be more relaxed than other ships we have sailed on. Only downside was the disembarking day where the pick up time was 10am for a flight at 9pm which meant an extra cost of arranging an excursion. Which still meant arriving at 1pm. I feel the holiday package should of included a day pass to a hotel with transfer to airport. Virgin flights departed on time and were reasonably comfy in Economy.
