Luxury Cruise Expo Dover 29Jul 2011 - Oceania Marina - Sue Tooke

On Friday, we enjoyed the 7 course lunch on board the Oceania Marina.  Oceania is the sister company to Regent and the Marina has been voted by Berlitz guides as one of the best companies to cruise with.  Great attention to detail has been made on board the ship with the best ultra luxury furnishings and fittings and with the use of wood throughout giving the feeling of being in a country house hotel.  In September of this year, they will be introducing fly-cruises and since introducing the sale in stirling, their business has trebled.  They offer open seating and speciality dining in some of their restaurants which has been popular.  They have a relaxed and homely feel and have been likened to the Ritz-Carlton Hotel.  They do not offer full all inclusive like the rival brands of Seabourn, Crystal and Regent but all soft drinks/mixers and water are included in addition to meals.

There is also a speciality steak house called Polo Grill.  For all speciality restaurants, all passengers up to concierge are at least allowed one dining in their stay but can request more and are offered 7 courses in the evening. Courses are offered such as photography, art and cookery ranging from $49-$150 and are advisable to book in advance to avoid disappointment. This company would be considered 5 star as does Holland America Line.

At the Expo, the ultra luxury 6 star cruising companies were also represented  Seabourn, Silverseas, Regent, Seadream and Crystal.  These companies are different in that they are all inclusive where wine, drinks etc. are all included, as as port charges, service charges and often excursions too.  When you consider the cost of everything included on a cruise, cruising is extremely good value for money.
