How long are Oceania Cruises’ Drink Packages Available?

Oceania Cruises’ drink packages are available throughout your selected cruise itinerary. Starting on the day of embarkation until the disembarkation morning, you will have access to all of the included beverages – part of the “free beverage package”.

Guests who have purchased the Prestige Select package ahead of their cruise trip enjoy it throughout their itinerary, as it is activated upon embarkation. It is also possible to purchase the Prestige Select package once onboard, in case it wasn’t purchased before.

When purchasing a beverage package, know it is only available for the entire length of the cruise, meaning it’s not possible to buy it for select days only. Additionally, if one guest in a stateroom purchases a beverage package, all guests in the same stateroom (aged 21 and over) need to also buy the same package.

Does Oceania Cruises offer a Cruise with Unlimited Drinks?

Yes, Oceania Cruises offers options for unlimited drinks through their beverage packages. The Prestige Select beverage package provides unlimited premium spirits, cocktails, wines by the glass, beer, specialty coffees, soft drinks, and mineral water throughout your entire cruise.

For those with moderate drinking preferences, Oceania Cruises offers a wide selection of always-included drinks through your cruise. This means you can enjoy complimentary specialty coffees, sodas, cold-pressed juices, and still and sparkling Vero Water® anywhere on the ship, plus fruit smoothies, milkshakes, gelato, and gourmet ice cream.

An LCC advisor helps you determine which package best suits your preferences and drinking habits. For many cruisers, upgrading to the Prestige Select Package provides the best value, especially for those who enjoy specialty coffees in the morning, cocktails by the pool, and after-dinner drinks in the lounges. Let your luxury cruise advisor explain the specific inclusions, exclusions, and value proposition of each package regarding your particular cruise trip.

Is it Possible to Upgrade the Oceania Beverage Package?

Yes, it is possible to upgrade your beverage package on Oceania Cruises, though the options are changing in 2025.

For sailings from January 1, 2025 onward, guests booked under a promotion that includes the House Select package can upgrade to the Prestige Select package. For those who have no beverage package included, the Prestige Select package is available at $59.95 per person per day if purchased pre-cruise, or $69.95 if purchased onboard.

For all beverage package upgrades, our travel advisors recommend pre-purchasing before sailing to secure the best available rate. All guests over 21 years old in the same stateroom must purchase the same beverage package option.

Are Oceania Beverage Packages Available on Luxury Cruises?

Yes, Oceania beverage packages are specifically designed for luxury cruises. The Prestige Select beverage package adds to your luxury cruise experience by guaranteeing premium beverages through the duration of your cruise. This beverage package perfectly complements Oceania’s famous culinary program, featuring gourmet dining venues created by Master Chef Jacques Pépin.

Is the Oceania Beverage Package Available with Solo Cruises?

Yes, the Oceania Prestige Select Beverage Package is available for solo travelers booking an Oceania cruise. Solo cruisers have the same beverage package options as other guests, with the same pricing structure.

Are Beverages Included for Booking Oceania Cruises?

Yes, beverages are included with all Oceania Cruises bookings starting January 1, 2025, under their new Your World Included™ value promise.

Every Oceania booking automatically includes:

Specialty coffees and teas
Sodas and soft drinks
Still and sparkling Vero Water®
Cold-pressed juices
Fruit smoothies
Homemade gelato and gourmet ice cream

Alcoholic beverages are not included in the standard cruise fare for 2025 sailings unless you have booked under a promotional package that specifically includes the House Select beverage package, or you purchase the Prestige Select package separately.

The Your World Included™ program also offers additional inclusions such as specialty dining at all restaurants onboard, unlimited WiFi with Starlink connectivity, in-suite and in-stateroom dining, group fitness classes, laundry services, and all shipboard gratuities.

Are Oceania Cruises All Inclusive?

Yes, Oceania Cruises are all inclusive. Under the Your World Included™ program guests receive unlimited access to specialty dining experiences, all non-alcoholic beverages, group fitness classes, laundry services, gratuities, and more.

The main elements not included in the standard fare are:

Alcoholic beverages
Shore excursions
Spa treatments
Premium internet (beyond the standard unlimited WiFi)
Specialty dining experiences like La Reserve wine pairing dinners

For the most all-inclusive experience, guests can purchase the Prestige Select beverage package, which adds unlimited alcoholic beverages to their cruise experience.

How Do Oceania Cruises' House Select and Prestige Select Differ?

The House Select and Prestige Select beverage packages represent two different tiers of beverage service aboard Oceania Cruises, though this structure changed in 2025.

The House Select package was Oceania’s entry-level beverage package, included in the Simply MORE program. This package offered beer, wine, and champagne during lunch and dinner at onboard restaurants, and non-alcoholic beverages throughout the day.

The Prestige Select package instead offers unlimited access to a wide selection of spirits, cocktails, wines, and beers throughout the day at any venue onboard. For guests who enjoy cocktails and premium spirits aside from mealtimes, this Oceania beverage package can be an ideal option.

The key differences between these packages involve:

Availability times: House Select was only available during meals; Prestige Select is all-day.
Beverage selection: Prestige Select includes premium spirits and cocktails.
Venue restrictions: House Select was limited to restaurant-only; Prestige Select is available ship-wide.
Price point: Prestige Select has a premium price tag.

IMPORTANT 2025 UPDATE: Since January 1st, 2025, the House Select beverage package is no longer available for purchase. It will only be available for guests who booked with OLife Choice or Simply MORE promotions that included it as part of their cruise fare.

What is the Oceania Prestige Select Beverage Package?

The Oceania Prestige Select Beverage Package is a premium all-inclusive beverage option. It offers guests unlimited access to a full selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages throughout their entire cruise, at any venue onboard during operating bar hours.

For 2025, the Prestige Select package is priced at $59.95 per guest per day when purchased pre-cruise, or $69.95 per guest per day when bought onboard. This package also includes gratuities on all beverages.

The Prestige Select package includes:

A selection of champagne and wines by the glass
Beer
Spirits and cocktails from the General Bar & Martini Bar Menu
All non-alcoholic beverages included in the standard cruise fare
Available at any onboard venue as well as through room service during operating bar hours

The package excludes wines by the bottle, selections from the Premier Spirits list, and the Red Ginger Sake Selection. For wine lovers, Prestige Select package holders receive up to a 20% discount on Oceania Cruises’ exclusive La Reserve wine pairing dinners available on Marina, Riviera, and Vista ships.

What is the Oceania House Select Beverage Package?

The Oceania House Select Beverage Package is a more limited beverage option that used to be included as part of Oceania’s Simply MORE program. This package only covered beverages during lunch and dinner at the ship’s restaurants.

The House Select package included:

Three dozen premium label champagnes and wines by the glass
Two dozen beer selections from around the world
Non-alcoholic cocktails
Still and sparkling water
Premium coffees and teas
Freshly squeezed juices
Available only during lunch and dinner at onboard restaurants

How are the Oceania Beverage Package Reviews?

The Oceania beverage packages receive mostly positive reviews from cruisers who have experienced them, with the Prestige Select package receiving good reviews for its value and convenience.

Guests who have purchased the Prestige Select package highlight the superior quality of premium spirits and wines included, comparable only to those offered in fine bars and restaurants off board. Guests appreciate the convenience of not having to sign for drinks, the value proposition for moderate to frequent drinkers, and the ability to enjoy cocktails, wine, and spirits at any venue onboard

The House Select package (discontinued after January 1st, 2025) received mixed reviews depending on guests’ drinking preferences. Those who enjoy wine with meals found it was enough, while guests who prefer cocktails throughout the day recommend upgrading to Prestige Select.

As luxury travel advisors, we recommend that the decision to get a beverage package be based on individual preferences. The Prestige Select beverage package is a great option for travelers who wish to enjoy a selection of premium alcoholic drinks any time, with many guests calculating that consuming 4-5 alcoholic beverages a day makes the Prestige Select package worth it.
