You can save up to SGD $1,300 on Royal Caribbean Ovation of the Seas cruises if you book before November 13

There are a lot of reasons to love cruises – ample activities for the whole family, entertainment galore, and a plethora of dining options – and Royal Caribbean’s Ovation of the Seas is one of the most luxurious cruise operations around. If you’ve been itching to check this particular ship out and hop on a getaway, great news: it’s finally returned to Singapore, where it will remain until March 2026. 

Ovation of the Seas has an absurd number of activities available on-board. For the adrenaline junkies, the ship has RipCord, the first skydiving simulator at sea, FlowRider, its iconic surfing simulator, and a 40 foot rock climbing wall. SeaPlex, a sprawling indoor activity area, has bumper cards, roller skating, arcade games, and a sports court.

The North Star, a jewel-shaped capsule that brings you 90 meters above sea level, will give you breathtaking 360-degree views of the sea. There are a whopping 17 dining options, including Jamie’s Italian, from celebrity chef Jamie Oliver. If you’re looking for nightlife, there’s the Latin-themed club Boleros onboard, and a state-of-the-art space named Two70 that combines aerial acrobatics, robotics, and projection-mapped visuals. 

If this all sounds like a dream come true, you’re going to love this next part. As part of Royal Caribbean’s 11.11 sales, if you book select Ovation of the Seas vacations from Singapore to Penang, Phuket, or Bali, you can enjoy up to SGD $1,300 in savings, including instant savings of at least $150 per room.

If you’re sailing for five nights or less, you’ll save $165 on a room with an inside or ocean view, $264 on a balcony room, and $520 on a suite. Those savings increase if you sail for 6 nights or more, to $300, $400, and $1,300 respectively. In addition, if you book a sailing with triple or quad occupancy, you’ll get free cruising for the third and fourth guest, which is a great deal if we’ve ever seen one.

Terms and conditions apply, of course, but if you want the most luxurious cruise around, you’re not likely to find a deal better than this. Learn more about available sailings and bookings on Royal Caribbean’s website.
