Here at Bright Life Travel Co., we believe in firsthand experience—and that’s exactly why our owner Kristin recently boarded Ovation of the Seas, the largest ship to ever sail out of Los Angeles. (Yes, it’s as massive and exciting as it sounds.)
We’re always looking for trips that blend ease, fun, and family-friendly vibes—and this one checks all the boxes. Whether you’re new to cruising or a seasoned sea-goer, Ovation has a little something for everyone.
Here’s what stood out from our first hand experience—and why we’d 100% recommend it for your next adventure.
🌟 The Aquaplex = A Family Favorite
This huge multi-use space is basically a built-in boredom buster. Think bumper cars, family-friendly shows, arcade vibes, and interactive fun. It’s the kind of space where kids can roam and play while parents actually get to watch from a distance (with a coffee or cocktail in hand—no judgment either way).
🌿 The Solarium Is a Total Reset
Let’s be real: sometimes parents need a break, too. The Solarium is an adults-only space onboard, filled with panoramic ocean views, quiet pools, and total relaxation. It’s peaceful, it’s beautiful, and it’s the ideal “me time” moment while the rest of the family is off having their own fun.
🍽️ Dining That Delivers (Yes, Even for Picky Eaters)
Ovation offers a wide variety of dining options—from casual eats to more elevated experiences. One of our favorite parts? You don’t need to plan everything in advance. Whether you’ve got kids who change their mind every five minutes or teens who eat like grown adults, there’s something here to satisfy every traveler.
🛳️ Big Ship Energy, Thoughtful Family Design
This ship has all the energy and entertainment you’d expect from a mega cruise—but what really stood out is how well-designed it is for families. From spacious cabins to easy onboard navigation, everything felt streamlined, flexible, and low-stress.
And with itineraries that include destinations like Alaska and the Pacific Coast? It’s a fun (and surprisingly chill) way to explore bucket list-worthy places.
