Justifying the whining by claiming that those who disagree must have different means... that's a funny posture 😂 Entitled consumers are hilarious.. they want the prices to be the same as they always were, yet everything in the world including the insurance, the labor rates, the fuel the cruise ship has to use, food cost etc has gone up. Realistically they should just include everything and raise the rates of the ship to avoid this kind of complaining, but they're trying to make it approachable for those who can't afford it. If they need to raise their bottom line by increasing costs in certain areas, they are sparing those who can't afford a higher fare. Welcome to 2023 👌

I cruised oceania in September and most recently this past April and two other times prior. Every single time the staff is awesome. The quality of the food is definitely a step up, and the clientele is a little bit older and relatively quieter than lines like Royal Caribbean etc. I appreciate being able to sleep at night without drunken ruckus in the hallway, and the ratio of cruisers that know not to let their door slam shut compared to the inconsiderate folks who do, is much better on Oceania. It's even in the newsletter on the first day, don't let your door slam! You'll have a great time!

I should also add to my last sentiments a few weeks ago - the Oceania Riviera was probably the first cruise ship I've been on that has a truly working steam room, where when it kicks on you quite literally cannot see anything 3 ft past your face because it's so steamy . All of the Royal Caribbean and carnival ships I've been on have had crazy hot steam rooms that are humid but barely have any steam at all. Has anyone else found truly good steam rooms aside from the other factors?

Ahoy from the Oceania Riviera, currently at port in Ibiza ! The spa has separate men's and women's facilities along with some coed features. The steam/sauna/shower areas are totally separate. The steam is ironically smaller at 4persons max capacity than her smaller sister ships Sirena and Marina which seat 6 max. Those two however, do not have a dry sauna at all, and Riviera has a nice big one, probably could seat 8-10. Surprisingly compared to my prior Oceania trips, this area has been busy every day, didnt see a single person in a suit or even covered. It was definitely chatty..it's like some odd wave of old school sanity washed over our ship 😂 .
