Wow what a fabulous cruise! The staff are truly wonderful, including the directors and captain. The food and entertainment were great. We loved this ship . . easy to navigate and had a wealth of bars, activities and dining options.

We sailed on Ovation of the Seas in October 2025, absolutely could not fault the ship or the crew! Unfortunately our cruise was delayed by two days due to a Typhoon but Iglu quickly arranged for us to stay at the same hotel for the extra two nights. We also had a number of itinerary changes, which was disappointing but the extra days on the ship were very enjoyable.

Great ship lots to do, quite a few things requiring additional payments. Ship well kept and clean, staff helpful, attentive and work so hard. Entertainment really good lots of variety and choice. Great holiday, ports a little random and only did our own excursions as theirs incredibly expensive and not very exciting (ports of all didn't help)

The ship was great, if not in port and on an excursion, then plenty of areas you can relax or join in on many of the day time activities. In the evening plenty of bars, or even shows to enjoy and all of a very high standard. The food was lovely, spoilt for choice and you decide whether you dress up or not. All the crew were fantastic, always friendly and helpful and nothing too much trouble. We went on four excursions, two I would say were value for money, however the other two a glorified bus ride with no or little time in the places visited and you definitely have no time to see the attractions advertised by Royal Caribbean.

Excellent cruise ship.
Friendly staff, Good food, Nice shows every night.
Only negative was entry to ship 3 hours, exit 1 1/2 hours and at ALL ports exit was very poorly organised with long queues everytime. What a shame someone did not organise us into groups and use the system correctly like all other cruises we have been on.
Hence 4 stars and not 5.
