Oceana

The lively and enticing Oceana is one of the most popular ships in the whole fleet, its atmosphere and popularity attracting many different people for their first cruises. The character of the Oceana is best suited to the sunniest climates, with a spread of deck bars, pools and palm trees.

On board the Oceana, the atmosphere is infectious, and permeates each of the rooms and public spaces on board. Any guest stepping onto the ship for the first time entering the atrium will find it difficult not to enter the holiday spirit. Once everyone is on board, all guests begin to socialise and enjoy themselves together, and the sound of conversation and laughter fills the ship.

The facilities on board are designed to ensure everyone enjoys themselves as much as possible. There are wide ranging activities on offer, from sports on the court housed in the ship funnel, to four swimming pools to cool off in, to the 12 different drinking venues on board.

Guests who enjoy fine cuisine will not be disappointed by the freedom dining areas on board. From the open deck restaurant offering specialities with a beautiful view, to the Marco Pierre White gourmet restaurant (open from September 2008 onwards). After dinner there is yet more on offer on board, with evening entertainment including comedy, theatre and Music Festivals at Sea. For anyone who does not wish the night to end, the late night club venue Le Club is the perfect place to meet new people and dance the night away.

Once the evenings are over, guests retreat to their beautiful staterooms. Featuring King-sized beds alongside separate sitting spaces, and spacious bathrooms, each with a bath, and the larger staterooms and suites lead out onto private balconies, with space for chairs and table.

A cruise on the Oceana is sure to be one of the most enjoyable holidays you can take. For the uninitiated, it provides a perfect way into the cruising lifestyle, one which will be hard to shake.
