Ovation of the Seas - Australia's most innovative Cruise Ship

Australia welcomed its very own brand new cruise ship for the first time when Ovation of the Seas arrived in Sydney for the peak summer season of December 2016. Like its sister ships - Quantum of the Seas and Anthem of the Seas - this third ship features new-to-the-seas activities such as onboard bumper cars and a skydiving simulator. It also features the North Star, a pod that extends up and over the ship for 360-degree views. Inside cabins feature "virtual balconies" - essentially floor-to-ceiling LCD TV screens linked to a camera mounted on the outside of the ship. It also features the wildly innovative entertainment space, Two70, which integrates HD-digital technology with singing, dancing and acrobatics.

The decor and design of the ship makes it a pleasure to be on board . There were many different entertainment options to choose from each day. Staff went out of their way to make us feel special and although there were over 4000 passengers on board the ship always felt spacious.

I have just come off The Ovation of the Seas and I would like ton say this ship is the best Ive been on. My husband and I do 4 cruises a year on differant lines, and this was one of the best. Already bookes another cruise on this one for 2018. Loved it.

An amazing ship and despite the size it was easy to navigate around the ship. Facilities were great and although the ship was full on our cruise it didn't feel like there were about 5,000 passengers on board. The adult only solarium was a fantastic place to get away from it all. We have cruised many times with Royal Caribbean and although this was an incredible ship, our preference would be on a smaller cruise ship, like the Mariner or Voyager next time.

I thoroughly enjoyed most of everything on the Ovation but truly hated having to book for 'everything' this is okay if u r okay with technology & well versed with the Royal App we asked a few people to help us at the Help Desk but because of large line ups - they appeared to feel that it was just 'too easy & a waste of time??

Easy booking Saw a cruise, entered my booking & it was done. Only problem occurred as passport info was required by CruiseOffers but not entered on the booking with the cruise line so required reentry.
