Fabulous cruise by
Jan G. from Connellsville, Pa. Sailing date: Nov 2012Pros: Everything Cons: When it was over This was our first cruise so we did not know what to expect. We had some expectations as to what it would be like but those expectations went far and beyond what we experienced on our cruise. The Oasis of the Seas is beautiful and the service was outstanding. Everyone we came in contact with who worked on the ship were helpful, courteous, caring about us as a traveler. We will certainly book another cruise in the future. Ship Quality

   VIP TREATMENT FOR FIRST TIME CRUISERS by
Karen C. from Houston, Texas Sailing date: Aug 2012Pros: We loved everything about the ship! Even though the ship was at capacity, we were still able to find quiet places to relax. Cons: I really can't think of anything we did not like - it was a fabulous experience Shocked and amazed at the size of the ship as well as all the options that were available onboard. This was our first cruise and we were so overwhelmed with everything to do and all the functions that were scheduled we really did not know where to start. We smiled, non-stop for a week. Ship QualityThe ship was beautiful! We truly felt like we were in Central Park or on a Boardwalk!! At one point when we were walking through the Promenade, I forgot I was on a ship and felt like we were in a shopping mall. Dining/FoodThe variety of the food was top notch for all dining options. I guess we got to the Windjammer Cafe too late (around 7:30am) because most of the baked goods were a little dried out from the heat lamps. We choose other options for breakfast and lunch. Dinner was in the formal dining room every night and the variety was marvelous! With us being from Texas, it was a little light on seasoning and grilling but overall, we enjoyed the food very much Stateroom QualityConsidering the number of passengers this ship was able to carry, we felt our room was just perfect for us. There was plenty of room to sit on the couch and watch TV or lay on the bed and take a nap. The balcony was great and the size of the room was comparable to some hotels we have stayed in. We had everything we needed for a perfect vacation. Ship Staff QualityI wish there were 10 smiley faces!! The staff on the ship was absolutely fantastic!! Everyone we encountered was friendly, helpful, always smiling!! They made our vacation even better than we could have imagined!! Thank you Milton, Linda and Oscar!! Entertainment & ActivitiesIf you were bored on this ship, it was your own fault!! There was so much going on, we could not possibly see everything that was available. We laughed, A LOT and had a great time watching the passengers participate in the various competitions on board - i.e. twist competiton and belly flop! 3 out of 3 people found this review helpful.

NO other cruise tops RCCL's OASIS by
James A. from Staten Island, NY Sailing date: Oct 2011Pros: food, service, activities, shore excursions, pool, cabin, nightlife Just got back from the RCCL's Oasis of the Seas 7-day Eastern Caribbean cruise. I must say that it was a perfect vacation in almost every way. Besides the sheer size of the ship (it's the largest cruise ship in the world), every facet of the vacation was perfection. From the amazing food, the helpful and friendly staff, the wonderful activities, the amazing nightlife and activities and everything in between, I would highly recommend taking a cruise with Royal Caribbean anyday.

Amazing Oasis by
Conrad A. from San Juan, PR Sailing date: Mar 2010Pros: Beautiful ship with lots of things to do, not a dull moment, great shows.

Fun and Exciting! by
Julie M. from Tipp City, Ohio Sailing date: May 2013Pros: Always something to do!! Cons: Very cold in the Opus Dining Room. The ship was more than I expected. I always had new adventures everyday to explore on the ship. The staff from the cleaning crew to the executive staff were extremely helpful! Dining/FoodThe only minor thing, take a sweater to the Opus dining room it is very cold and was uncomfortable, it was hard to enjoy dinner some evenings due to the temp. Stateroom Quality

Enjoyable vacation by
A Traveler from Estonia Sailing date: Mar 2013We had big expectations before the vacation and luckily we didn't have to be disappointed because the ship was just great. Ship Quality
Dining/FoodDinners were great-the food, the service - just excellent. The service and food in other places (for free) didn't impress us so much. Stateroom QualityRoom service was very good, clean and nice surprises when we returned to our cabins :). Ship Staff Quality
Entertainment & Activities
Children's ProgramsWe didn't have children with us, but so much what we saw, I can think that children would enjoy the ship a lot. 0 out of 0 people found this review helpful.

Great but crowded. by
A Traveler from California Sailing date: Oct 2012Pros: The food and entertainment was wonderful. Cons: So many people that the lines at customer service were long and some events were a crush. This is a terrific ship and this was my second cruise on it. The first cruise must have had fewer passengers because I didn't notice the long lines or the crush of people at any events. The entertainment is excellent and I enjoyed the trip despite the overcrowding. Ship Quality

Oasis - Eastern Carib - Great Cruise by
MN girl from MN Sailing date: Apr 2012Pros: The quality of staff, ship in general Cons: Casino, tips on top of tips, Extra spending everywhere This was a high quality ship with lots to offer. Don't worry about finding stuff to do on the ship - computerized tvs are everywhere & you push a button & it gives you options - from what to do & where to eat. Don't bother with casino - so little bonuses/payouts that everyone was DISGUSTED. Took fun right out of it. Sunblock spf 50 at least (SEVERE burns were very common on our cruise.) Excursions were better booked in port. Watch the time - we left a few travelers on an island... Ship QualityBeautiful, clean, easy to figure out Dining/FoodDining Room -We didn't have a choice about prepaid gratuities (it added it in) so we had "My time dining" which it looks like you HAVE to set up ahead of time - but you can change it - so no stress. Plus you can just walk in & usually get in.
WindJammer - Good buffet. Not a 10, but probably an 8. Be careful of the extra charges "fresh squeezed orange juice" versus just orange juice... Stateroom Qualitysmallest room/cheapest available and it was still spacious and orderly/clean Ship Staff QualityStaff needs to be tipped - the prepaid gratuities don't go to all the people they should - so be aware, any tipping should be done directly to them and cash. Entertainment & ActivitiesVery easy to find something quality to do Children's ProgramsWe didnt use - Many kids - they seemed well entertained and stayed in the kids areas... 5 out of 6 people found this review helpful.
