We also had no noise from the dining room below or the rooms next door or from the hallway.

We were on the Vista, PH2 #7116 in January, 2024 for 22 days in the Caribbean. We had the extended balcony with two loungers, two chairs and two tables. The balcony is huge! We also had the chance to check out the aft wrap around balcony on deck 7 and it also had the two loungers, two chairs, and two tables. Our butler told us the only large extended balconies are on the aft Deck 7. Hope this helps.

We had PH3 10020 across from the laundry room last year on the Marina from Lima to Miami. The location was very convenient to the stairs and elevator as well as the laundry and I would have no hesitation to book that suite again. We did not notice any more motion than further toward the middle of the ship.

We asked for a clock in our PH2 and it was brought to our room within an hour or two.

I would like to mention that the covered outdoor Terrace was a great addition on the Vista. It was possible to seat everyone at breakfast and lunch with complete shade even next to the railing most of the time! We always enjoy the beautiful weather outside while dining on the terrace during the warmer itineraries.

We just disembarked the Vista yesterday morning after 22 days in PH2 cabin 7116. We never heard anyone talking or TV from rooms on either side. Actually, we didn't hear hallway noise either. Perhaps the wall insulation is not uniform throughout the ship? We had a great Butler as well as room attendant and the food quality was very good. We would sail again on the Vista for the right itinerary.

January 9th and January 19th.

Good to know. I have heard that May and June are also good times to be in FP.

Thanks for the update. We are booked with Cruise Only on the Vista in January so curious about the latest internet rules.

We have sailed twice in French Polynesia as well as a land vacation on Moorea during late March and early April. As I recall, both trips during those months were quite hot and humid and somewhat uncomfortable, so I am pleased to see that Oceania is now going to sail in the somewhat cooler winter/spring in FP which is about 5 or 6 degrees cooler. The Windstar and Paul Gauguin have been sailing in the cooler months for several years now. My son and wife just returned from 10 days on Moorea in mid-October and they said the weather was perfect....warm but not uncomfortable.

Was this booking Simply More or still under the old booking with either Cruise Only or OLife.

I printed out Boarding passes recently on both Riviera and Marina and there was not any charge for printing. I used the Executive Lounge on the Marina and the computer center near Baristas on the Riviera.

We are currently onboard the Marina and have not heard of any Covid cases during our cruise from Lima to Miami. Everything seems normal and have not noticed anything out of the ordinary. No coughing and only a very, very few masks worn by anyone whether passengers or crew. We are enjoying our cruise and have been going ashore on most of the ports with no problems.

Thanks! I thought that was the case, but hadn't purchased off the ship in several years. We have a Lima to Miami cruise coming up next month.

I know we can bring wine and other alcohol beverages onboard when embarking the first day, but wanted to know if any problem with Oceania purchasing in other port stops along the cruise and bringing back onboard?
