Review for a Australia & New Zealand Cruise on Ovation of the Seas

10+ Cruises • Age 70s
Spur of the moment decision to join this ship from Perth to Sydney on maiden voyage to Australia. This would make it our 14th ocean cruise. A balcony as always.
We had previously traveled on her larger brother, (Allure of the Seas) and enjoyed it immensely.
Unfortunately, this was not the case with the Ovation of the Seas.
Just to name a few things.
Food
Stale bread rolls at ...

Great Expectation but turned out to be a disappointment.
Been on Legend, Rhapsody, Radiance and Voyager.
Guest Services is a thumbs down.
Meals average, alcoholic beverages pricey.
Activities lacking - no ice carving, deck parties, formal nights, pool competitions with guest participation, movies outdoors and only 2 in the Royal Theatre.
Not constant music venues between dinner and ...

We decided to do a week getaway before Xmas on the Ovation Of The Seas which offered sector cruising between Singapore & Sydney - too good to pass up.
My husband and 17yr old son flew to Perth on Sunday 4th and had 2 days staying at the Crown Metripol which was lovely beautiful room with pool view and nice big bath :).
We embarked the Ovation on Tuesday 6th our allocated time was 12:00 - ...

The buffet food was better than most cruises and the manager of the Windjammer came on and announced some things, told us to have a great day and always had an amusing saying to finish with. Having to wash your hands on entering the buffet was terrific and meant I did not see a sick person on the ship. Also, there were a lot of hand sanitizers which is great. The food quality in the restaurant ...

We chose this to experience a new ship with all the bells and whistles. Embarking on Freo was a nightmare taking 2 hours but once on board that was forgotten. The crew were fabulous and couldn't do enough for us, always smiling and happy and breaking into song and dance in the Windjammer, Stateroom was always tended to twice or three times each day.
We ate breakfast in the dining room, ...

We chose this cruise as it was its first time in Australia they over emphasised the fact because when we got on our interpretation from the advertising was different the services were appauling. When we embarked we waited 3 hrs just to embark the line was huge and there was no effort to keep the line moving. We eventually got on and on one of the nights the ship movement was bad mostly everyone ...

This would be cruise number 8 each being with a different cruise line. Read the reviews and hoped it would be different for us. The embarkation took a ridiculous two and a half hours, not a good start to any cruise. Went to our balcony cabin, which being a new ship was fine, nothing special however. Checked out the Windjammer buffet a huge area with poor quality food, when compared with other ...

Thought it would be good to experience a short duration cruise on a new mega-ship after previous cruises on older and smaller ships. Cruise Director Joff Eaton was superb and the technology used throughout the ship was amazing. We had an excellent inside cabin and room steward and the virtual balcony TV screen was excellent. We were not travelling with children but the children we saw on ...

I chose this cruise as it was a 5 nighter from Fremantle (home port) to Adelaide and a good opportunity for my husband to experience 1st time cruising. Also coincided with Birthday and anniversary so dates fitted.
NOT happy about the last minute 'deals' offered by Cruiseco to fill empty cabins - a request for an upgrade in lei of cabin credit was ignored. I will NOT be doing another Charter ...
