🌊 Ovation of the Seas – Start Your Dream Voyage at Sea ✨

🚢 Boarding Process

Complete online check-in in advance (fill in passport details, choose dining time, etc.). Upon arrival at the port, luggage can be checked directly to your stateroom. Security and customs take about 1 hour. Friendly crew members will warmly welcome you onboard.

Head straight to the 🌞 Solarium on Deck 14, an adults-only quiet zone. Relax on a sun lounger by the pool under shaded canopies, enjoying the sea breeze 🌬️ and the sound of the waves 🌊 — the vacation vibe is unbeatable.

🛏️ Balcony Stateroom with Ocean View

Highlights of the Room
I chose a Superior Balcony Stateroom with a private balcony 🌅, equipped with a folding table and two lounge chairs. Each morning you can watch the sunrise 🌞, and in the evening sip wine 🍷 while admiring the sunset — private and romantic.
- Closet comes with a safe for valuables 🔒
- Only one dual socket by the bedside (no USB ports) 🔌; two more outlets at the vanity
- Housekeeping can be scheduled 🧹 — you’ll often return to find towel animals 🐘 and the next day’s program placed neatly on the bed
