I have just posted a review to my website with lots of photos of a recently completed Colonial America cruise on the brand-new Oceania Vista that went from Montreal to Miami.   I also have the menus from the restaurants, spa and lounges.

 

We had a great time on an awesome ship.  Below is a photo from before the Aura show at Montreal’s Notre Dam Cathedral.  Just a gorgeous experience

 

The review is located on my website, which is linked to in my signature.  You can also just Google “Mike and Carol’s/Cathy’s Cruise Reviews” to find a link to it.  I hope it is helpful for those of you that are planning to cruise on the Vista; or that it brings back some fond memories to those of you who have already cruised on her or the ports.

Hi Lyn,

Thanks for putting in the link. 
 

I understand most people don’t want to see all signatures, me included; but at the bottom of my posts the top of my signature shows with the website URL. 😄

That’s interesting.  I’m seeing two lines of my signature.  Do you see an “expand signature” button?

I thought that I had mine turned off, since I only see about 3 lines of a signature.  I think that was a change CC made a while ago.  Since I wasn't seeing everyones full signatures, I thought they were turned off.  I guess that I will just have to depend on helpful folks like you to put in my URL.  😀

Love the Aura show. Really spectacular. I love the fact that part of the proceeds goes into Cathedral renovations.

That was what I was referring to, but it only shows if you have signatures turned on.

Great review! Thank you. I have a cruise booked on Vista next March/April - looking forward to trying a new line (to me) and a new ship. 

 

One question for you - I think your cabin was 9106?  Were you disturbed by the elevator bank that looks to be close by? My cabin is in that vicinity and I am curious if that might be an issue.  Thank you!!

Not at all. Never heard a thing.  You have nothing to worry about. Enjoy your cruise.

Thanks so much for the detailed review, especially the menus.

Thank you so much for sharing the photos and menus. I have a question. On day 14 you show a Maine Lobster baked in shell with a mushroom cream sauce. Is it anything like the Lobster Thermidor they serve in Jacques? That was one of the best dishes we had on Riviera last March. I'm drooling just thinking about it.

[FetaCheese]

Thanks for your detailed review.  A fine travelogue, and great O Vista info.

I think they are basically the same.  Below are descriptions and photos of the Jacques Lobster Thermidor from my 2016 Riviera cruise.

 

 

Below is the Vista Maine Lobster Baked in Shell.  The main difference is that the Vista one was a much bigger shell rather than two smaller ones in Jacques.
