avalong Posted May 8, 2014 #1 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Hi Folks- I seem to recall reading on this site that the Marina had a 9-hole putting course of some kind. I couldn't find one on the deck plans. Anyone have any thoughts on this? Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare LHT28 Posted May 8, 2014 #3 Share Posted May 8, 2014 deck 16 forward http://www.oceaniacruises.com/idp/?sid=MNA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avalong Posted May 8, 2014 Author #4 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Couldn't see a deck 16 at all. There's an activities court on deck 15, but no mention of golf. I'm guessing they chose to only mention a few of the activities (bocce ball, shuffleboard, croquet). Is there also a small paddle tennis court?

When I look at it there's no deck 16 (cue "Twilight Zone" theme here....) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avalong Posted May 8, 2014 Author #7 Share Posted May 8, 2014 LHT28: OK, I googled "Oceania Marina deck 16," & up popped the schematic you described. Still strange that it doesn't appear (to me) on the Oceania website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have pop-ups blocked in your browser ..that is only thing I can think of It should show in one of the larger brochures as well Good luck Lyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oceanbill457 Posted May 8, 2014 #9 Share Posted May 8, 2014 The putting green has 9 holes configured like many miniature golf facilities . You can play 18 holes with each 9 with different setups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJB Posted May 8, 2014 #10 Share Posted May 8, 2014 :confused:That is strange when I click on the link then deck 16 it shows the Golf putting green at the front along with the paddle tennis Yup, it's there. I used it along with trying to use the paddle tennis court. The paddle tennis can not be used on sea days as it is at the bow of the ship and the wind could be blowing at 30 or 40 miles an hour. The ball moves all over the place. No fun at all. Should be at the stern where it could be protected from the wind as Regent's Voyager is. Very poor design. :(:(:(:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have lots of sea days on our itinerary & I was hoping to make use of the paddle tennis court. Oh well, we'll have to make do with the golf and EATING. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CintiPam Posted May 9, 2014 #13 Share Posted May 9, 2014 We played some competitive shuffleboard on our January Riviera cruise, and it was like a gale up fore most afternoons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPR Posted May 10, 2014 #14 Share Posted May 10, 2014 The course is a blast, complete with "rough" and OB. However, the first time we played my wife, putting with her camera strap around one wrist, somehow sank 7 holes-in-one and thrashed me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shuffleboard is at stern of ship, mostly blocked from the wind. But still pretty windy up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forgot to mention that on Marina next to the putting green is a golf net with a few clubs and balls. Pretty good for a little while. For whatever reason it does not show up in the book I have but it was there in Feb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
