Very good experience. Smaller ship, no lines, good food and excellent shore excursions. Service is outstanding. For example, prior to docking in Rome (which is NOT in Rome but an hour away), Oceania sent passengers a note that cabs were practically non-existent at the cruise terminal and if available would charge several hundred dollars. They offered transportation to the airport for a small fee. Several of us had early morning flights and they arranged a special bus to take us in time for our flights. At 6:45 a.m. the Oceania cruise director was helping staff bring luggage to the bus to make sure we got off on time. Additionally, because of the smaller number of passengers, we tendered in and out with hardly any wait. There was another large cruise ship in Portofino and we saw 800-1,000 people waiting in a line that stretched for blocks, in the rain, to get back to their ship. We waited about 10 minutes under cover of a large tent provided by Oceania.

We loved this trip and this ship was perfect if you have a very busy itenary. The deluxe ocean view cabin was better than we expected. We usually do balcony but we booked this OV to try it out. We actually loved it. Europe was so hot (90 degrees to 103 degrees) and after long days in port we were soaked through our clothes. The last thing we would have done was be on our balcony in the heat. But to view the Amalfi coast from our window? Perfect. I would easily book this category for a cold weather cruise. The window was large enough for the natural night to come in and for you to see what's outside. We felt NO motion of the ocean on deck 4. I thought I wouldn't like that deck, but it was so easy to get to everything and so quiet! The food was excellent and all the staff were kind, friendly and helpful. Our cabin Steward Gede was one of the best we've ever had. Our refrigerator wasn't working and he had a new one brought up and stocked it with our preferred drinks in no time. This ship is small, and yes showing her age a bit - but hey, I can relate to that - and really, she's perfect. Comfortable, easy to get around and has what you need and want. Even though she's small - she never felt crowded - we were at 100% sailing and most times we were the only ones in the elevators. Food in the Terrace Cafe was tops - it was our prefered venue to sit outside aft with a grilled to order steak or chops or something more exotic from the buffet. The main dining room was equally as good. Toscano was excellent, but we were both disappointed with Polo Club this time. Our steaks were so over done I sent mine back (and I'm usually not that picky, but the difference from Medium Rare that I ordered to welldone that I had was a bit much). The lobster was incredibly small too. That could have just been a bad night or a one off because all the other times we've dined there it always was the highlight of our trip. Honestly, we wished we were at the Terrace that night. Our excursions we booked through Oceania were hit and miss - but most were very good. It was incredibly hot so it would have been nice if we had water available on the bus or time to refill them in port - sometimes we ran out of the water in our bottles and were struggling a bit. I do think Oceania does a great job on a variety of excursions. We did several city tours, a wine tasting and lunch, toured a local farm with a farm to table lunch, took a boat ride around the Amalfi coast and had a wonderful beach day in Menorca. So the mix was great! Our only issues: The bathrooms are so small. We didn't have any trouble using them, but someone larger might have an issue with the shower size. The casino is so small - not an issue really, just an observation. Still had fun losing some money (next time we'll win it back)

There needs to be an evaluation system for each tour. Also the level of mobility is not always true for the tours. Staff were outstanding and wonderful to be around. Clean & happy environment on the ship.

We loved this cruise. The crew was was wonderful. The only downside to this trip was the later port times. We were rushed to get through tours and in some cases things were closed or it was dark so you couldn’t see what guides were telling you about.

Oceania used to be my “go to” cruise line for the finest cuisine at sea and wonderful ships and itineraries. But no more. In spite of increasing fares and fees, it has significantly cut corners everywhere. The finest cuisine at sea is now no better than any other cruise line. Food quality has degraded significantly—all the beef served was tough, even filets. Variety has decreased —fewer choices and cheaper cuts of meat. Also of note is the fact that no special culinary events were put on—no buffets, no cooking demonstrations. My cruise occurred over Mother’s Day and absolutely nothing was done in recognition of the day. There was not even mention of the day in the Daily Currents bulletin. And the ship (Nautica) is in decline—My cabin had no hot water in the wash basin sink and it was never repaired despite numerous complaints—three times to the Hotel Manager himself. And there was mold in my shower. In the past, I willingly paid a premium price for Oceania’s premium product, but the premium product is gone, on top of their increased prices. The value is gone and I’m moving on.

The itinerary was excellent and the shore excursions were very well done. The places we saw and the tours were incredible. The staff on the ship and especially the spa and our butler were excellent, although the products that the spa sells were excellent but too expensive. The stateroom was very comfortable but had a few things that needed to be improved. We unfortunately missed several ports of call because of weather but understand this can happen. We will book a larger stateroom for a trip of this length again. We are strongly considering several additional Oceania cruises that are offered in 2025. Overall we had a wonderful experience on this exceptional vacation.

I have cruised on beautiful Oceiana four times with another Transatlantic in March 2024. As a solo traveler the solo cabins were a great idea and very well appreciated indeed. Thankyou for considering a true need in the cruise industry. I do wish the the single supplement was not so high.

<div>This was my first experience sailing on Oceania. I was in stateroom 4000. The cabin was nicely appointed but the storage space was minimal. We kept losing things and even found a prior guest's bathing suit in one of the high shelves. The service was really quite good and some of the staff was outstanding. I liked the fact that the evening entertainment started at 9:30pm and I was pleasantly surprised that the shows were quite good.</div> <div>I thought that their way of selling alcoholic beverages was tacky.</div>

As usual laundry room, tv/internet created most of problems. But that will never change. Oceania continues to ignore these issues, but they continue to sell out in spite of it. These are just the minor anoyances, overall still excellent. Cruise director not very good, when bad weather occurred you would expect A variety of things to do....nope

Cruising isnt for me but if you do it, Oceania is an exellent company and this was a great itinerary except,.......the excursions were pricey and fell short on accuracy of descriptions, crowds of tourists, and time wasted. best to make own arrangements either ahead of time or right when you get off the ship. Facilities were clean, food plentiful, and many iteresting lectures. if i choose to ever cruise again, i would consider Oceania first.

We really ejoyed the pre-cruise and cruise itself. This was our second Oceania cruise, this time on the smaller Nautica. Food is excellent, and the staff ever so friendly and attentive. There were not that many sea days, but the entertainment (afternoon trivia and speakers) kept us busy. Best part was the ports of call (okay, Maputo Mozambique was below expectations) were the highlight. Sad to say, we enjoyed the tours we booked privately much more so than the ones through Oceania, which are overpriced for sure. BUT, we know that don't we? Highly recommend!!

Overall the dining was very good but unfortunately it was inconsistent. The shore excursions were overpriced for what was on offer. We found we could hire a taxi in any of the port stops and have them duplicate the itinerary at 1/3 to 1/4 the Oceania price.

The best service we have had on any of our 13 cruises. Excellent food and good variety. Head waiter, Francisco, waiter, Jose, and assistant waiter,Ai, and head waiter/hostess,Sylvia made our cruise memorial event. All these people knew our names after the first night's dining. Very special and Oceania should recognize each of them.

The stop at port the in Tasiilak, Greenland could be eliminated. You could have another day at sea or add an overnight stay in Belfast or Dublin. We were impressed with the chef using some of the local seafood in the different ports. One of the reasons we booked with Oceania was because of the food selection & ambiance.
