Immortal Mediterranean from Barcelona, 14 September 2025 (12 nights)

Wonderful ship - beautifully fitted with top class facilities - cabins really good sizes, bathrooms excellent. All kept immaculate by the housekeeping crew. On deck facilities also excellent - swimming pool area well kept, sports facilities - pickleball court, crazy golf, tabletennis areas and the running/walking track all very good. Only down side was in the indoor gym area where the exercise studio was too small for the number of passengers catered for (1400). It could only take a maximum of 7 - 8 people comfortably as the spin cycles take up a fair amount of room. To do yoga or pilates was extremely limiting. Plenty of different dining opportunies in the various restaurants - again slightly disappointing that if you had not booked a slot early in the process (on-line after booking holiday) the only times available were from 8. 00 pm onwards, which is too late for the majority of the (elderly) people on board - however the buffet area was always a good option - and had dishes from, or similar to, the speciality restaurants. Good variety of entertainments/ interests on board, I particularly liked the 'Lync' area where there were opportunities to learn how to get the best out of your telephones, I pads, computers - how to take good photos - understanding the technology etc. - good for a techno-phobe like me. Evening entertainment excellent with good selection of acts. All in all an excellent ship and I would recommend the Vista to anyone who enjoys cruising in luxury at a reasonable price. Only problem I had - which had nothing to do with the ship - was with the transfer from the airport to the overnight hotel prior to boarding. I was taken to the wrong hotel and then had to find my own way to the correct hotel.

We loved every minute of our recent cruise on Vista. The staff. Food and ambience were all excellent. Due to the late booking of this cruise we didn’t receive our luggage labels in advance of our sailing. This was not a problem and the porters dealt with this efficiently at the port. Apparently you need to book more than 75 days before the start of the cruise to receive their official tags. I sincerely hope we get to sail on Oceania again! It has truly spoiled us and I feel it would be difficult to go back to the bigger ships now.

Beautiful ship further enhanced by a crew that offer exceptional service. We will be back.

As this was our first cruise we spent some time looking at different cruise lines and decided that Oceania Cruises looked the best option. The Vista was everything we hoped it would be and more. We had such a wonderful cruise and although we have nothing to compare the Vista to, we cant imagine any other ship being better.
