Riviera Cruise Ship of Oceania Cruises

The Riviera is a gorgeous mid-sized cruise ship, and its 1,250 guests will love the elegant furnishings and fascinating decor. The artwork is especially interesting, and the company has about $10 million worth of art displayed on the Riviera and its sister ship the Marina.

Join me on a tour of the Riviera, and then check out these other photo galleries of the ship.

The Riviera library is a series of small reading rooms, connected by this nice passageway. The ship has an excellent selection of reading materials.

The Library on the Oceania Cruises' Riviera is comfortable and quiet--a perfect place to read a good book or surf the Internet on your computer.

The Library on the Riviera of Oceania Cruises even has a fireplace, but it's not real (for safety reasons).

The Riviera has ship-wide WiFi, but also has this large computer/Internet center next to the library.

The Casino Bar on the Riviera is a good spot to take a break from the slot machines or gaming tables.  

Even those who don't enjoy gambling can appreciate the fun (or misery) others are having at the tables or slots while watching from the comfortable seats in the Casino Bar on the Riviera.

 The Casino on the Riviera is small but offers gaming tables and slot machines.

That's me showing off the delicious frittata I made in a cooking class on the Riviera at the Bon Appetit Culinary Center.

Cooking may be an art, but those who enjoy other artistic pursuits will love the Artist Loft on the Riviera. 

The interior of the Riviera is filled with interesting artwork like this large piece made of colorful glass.
