The Insignia ship, crew and staff gave us the best of cruising experiences. The suite, the restaurants, the amenities were perfect for the small ship experience that we enjoy. We met and gathered with many other folks that have had similar travel adventures and that relish the small ship cruises. Thank you Deborah !

Outstanding staff. Food was mostly good, but lacked flavor in some instances. The trip was a bit longer than anticipated. Lots of down time crossing the Atlantic. A few of the expeditions could have been more interesting in particular, Cape Town. Overall, a positive experience.

“Mixed reviews as so-called verandah upgrade overlooked noisy, working deck”
3 Stars
Cruise Date: 12/12/2024
Destination: Caribbean
We booked a GTY Verandah and were upgraded to a concierge verandah that turned out to be the worst verandah on the ship as it overlooked a working deck with incessant hammering beginning at 8:30 am on days we were in port. We allegedly had a steward but never met him. The bathroom was tiny with an even smaller shower stall. The food was generally good at the Terrace Restaurant and Waves Grill but items were often mislabeled and did not contain listed ingredients. Staff and servers were friendly and professional. The Polo Grill was very good one night, but the veal chop was disappointing t

“Insignia to Bermuda Sept1-8”
4 Stars
Cruise Date: 09/01/2024
Destination: Caribbean
We liked the smaller ship. The staff were very attentive. The entertainment was excellent. Overall we loved the experience. The Terrace cafe had.great food and a terrific variety. We ate there for most of our meals. We were disappointed with the.2 times we ate in.the dining room. Charred lamb chops and tough steak. The meal in the specialty restaurants was OK. We prefer the specialty restaurants in NCL. While in NYC, we had a superb meal at Tan and felt the Oceania meal should have been of that quality in their specialty restaurants.

“Service, Service, Service ”

Cruise Date: 09/01/2024
Destination: Caribbean
From the moment we first stepped aboard the Insignia to the moment we debarked the service of all crew members was impeccable. Meals were excellent at all venues although I was expecting a nicer variety at the two specialty restaurants. The nightly shows were excellent while the daytime was too relaxing (boring), really nothing was going on. While the ship itself was very clean, it does need an update. Our cabin was a rear facing balcony with magnificent views but inside was very tight, but surprisingly drawer space for clothing was very adequate. The bathroom the smallest I have ever seem on

Food very mediocre. Staff and crew wonderful. Two canceled tours due to bad weather. Difficult to disembark early in Portland due to customs. Wi-Fi very spotty. Would never do this again. Cunard much better. Thanks

Great 16 days aboard Oceania’s Insignia for the Panama Canal Adventure. Mixed with days at sea, fun ports and excursions, overall a great trip. Of course dining and service aboard was excellent as per usual when aboard Oceania. Highly recommend this itinerary.

“Bermuda Trip Comments (Insignia - Oceania)”

Cruise Date: 09/06/2023
Destination: Caribbean
- This was by far the best onboarding we have ever had with Oceania (took 15 min) - Also, by far the best departure and through security and CBP agents on the pier (this also took 15 min or so) - The service staff for staterooms were awesome again - We were not happy with the service in Terrace Cafe nor the Waves Grill. they were both understaffed from previous trips. We had to continually ask for water, soda, etc. They only had 2 people serving water for instance in waves grill the entire time with 15 tables. - The medical staff onboard Insignia was great as they bandaged Dan after he cut

“Disappointing trip”
3 Stars
Cruise Date: 08/13/2023
Destination: Transatlantic/Repositioning
This was my first time traveling with Oceania, and the overall trip was a disappointment. The ship was not what I expected for a luxury cruise line. Size was great - about 650 passengers, but the food was average, desserts all tasted like they had been frozen, and there were limited things to do. The excursions were also a disappointment; very local guides spoke much English, and the descriptions didn't necessarily match what actually happened (in my first excursion, a walking tour to a waterfall, we started out with 22, and ended up with 8 ... and walked 7.2 miles!) Not sure I would tra

Very nice but not like the "old" Oceania. While Insignia is still a beautiful ship, it should be retired and replaced with a similar size ship.

“Very small bathroom shower.”

Cruise Date: 12/10/2022
Destination: Caribbean
Very small suites. The bathroom is extremely small . . . like an airplane toilet with an added tiny shower. If you are over 250 lbs you would not be able to turn around in the shower. The storage in the cabin is more than ample, and the balcony has good space. Oceania should have made the bathroom much larger. The food was very good.
