What Creators Are Saying

Selected quotes from our creator panel.

The Good

This tile and marble here is spectacular, very nice design. And then we'll have a single head and bidet there.

This is exquisite. It is about 2,400 square feet and it takes up the full beam at the after of the ship.

Starlink is active on the Oceanana URA, so you can be assured of having reliable internet service throughout the cruise.

I am back on board Explore 1, maybe my favorite cruise ship in the world.

Anthology, maybe the best specialty dining restaurant anywhere on any cruise ship or maybe even on land.

The Watch-outs

I had a terrible lunch at the Lake View cabin it's all just crappy bar food that you get at all the veil Resorts they don't give a damn about having good dining

I'm still pissed.

obviously that is terrible for those port cities who rely heavily on the cruise business for their sustenance and livelihood

cruise ships aren't killing anybody that's a lie Riley you're a liar in that regard

this is not an emergency drill it is a true emergency
