We chose this cruise as an end of winter getaway to the lovely Caribbean. Embarkation was efficient and we were on board within minutes. Disembarkation was on time and also efficient.

The ship is old but clean and well maintained. We were offered an upgrade to a higher category which we gladly accepted and paid for, however, we were in a cabin directly above the show lounge which meant no afternoon naps due to the noise of rehearsals and no bedtime prior to 10:30 pm. Although this is not very late, the entertainment is so poor one may desire an early night rather than sitting through another mundane show.

This was our third time on Oceania and most likely our last, as we have missed ports on every cruise. On this cruise we had a medical emergency and diverted to the Turks and Caicos Islands which meant we were unable to make it to St. Kitts. We were also 4 hours late getting into Nassau without explanation from the Captain. As a result we had four and a half seas day, rather than the 3 we were supposed to have on the 10 day cruise. Fellow passengers were less than happy.

Cabin Review

Deluxe Ocean View

Cabin is larger than most as there is no balcony. It has a lovely oversize porthole window. Beware of the noise from the show lounge below. Nice and quiet after the show for sleeping.

Bathrooms are small and the shower with a curtain is not terribly pleasant.

The cabin appeared to be clean, however, after a few day, a pair of men’s undershorts appeared in my lingerie drawer........this told me that the cabin had not been properly cleaned after the previous guests departed, as they did not belong to my husband.
