The swimming pool on Riviera
Oceania’s Riviera has a large, heated swimming pool. It’s like an oasis on the high seas, in fact it is the perfect place to cool off. What’s more, there are two large whirlpool hot tubs for relaxing, no matter what the weather.
The swimming pool is surrounded by a teak deck, filled with padded sun loungers and comfortable day beds. We think the day beds are perfect for couples. There are additional sun loungers upstairs on decks 14 and 16.
There is bar service around the pool deck, so a refreshing cocktail is only as far away as the next drinks waiter.
The exclusive Spa Terrace
The Spa Terrace is an exclusive area reserved for guests staying in Suites and Concierge Level staterooms.
It is located right a the front of the ship with spectacular views and it has enhanced amenities. There are couples sun loungers with shade parasols, as well as a self-service soda station. The Spa Terrace also has an extra-large whirlpool hot tub. Also, there are showers for cooling off.
Alas, there is no bar service on the Spa Terrace. In our opinion the exclusive feel of the Spa Terrace could be made even better by changing this.
The spa on Oceania’s Riviera
The spa on Oceania’s Riviera is a haven of rejuvenation and wellness, not to mention relaxation.

Would you or anyone happen to know the length of the pool? I read that some people swim laps in the mornings. Just curious.
Dear G Higgin
Thank you for your query. I have sailed on Riviera and can confirm the pool is indeed long enough to swim laps. That said, I don’t know the exact length.
I hope this helps.
