Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 30 - 49 Cruise Experience: First cruise Traveler Type: Couple Stateroom Type: Balcony A Great First Cruise but not perfect! by Ken S. from United States Sailing date: Jul 2011 Pros: Fantastic Boat, very clean, a lot to do, great shows and activities, nice stateroom Cons: For those with food allergies be aware that the food in the Windjammer buffet is labeled extremely poorly. I only gave the boat a good rating because I had a very bad experience on the last night of the cruise at the Windjammer buffet. I took what was labeled simply as "Chocolate Cake" and had a severe allergic reaction. I found out later that it had a hazelnut cream but there was no mention of any type of nut on the cake label or any mention of the possibility that it may have a nut ingredient. For those with allergies just putting a sign that states "may contain nuts" would have been enough to keep me far away from it. Even though we had an amazingly great time on the boat this experience did put a damper on our enthusiasm for Royal Caribbean and the Oasis of the Seas. I'm surprised that Royal Caribbean does not take food allergies seriously enough to just put a simple allergen warning sign in front of certain foods at the buffet. The buffet managers response was even more puzzling when my wife brought it to his attention. He admitted that it did have a hazelnut cream and went on to send us a plate of chocolate covered strawberries to our stateroom to make things better (insulting at best). To this day I'm not sure if the sign was mislabeled or if this is just standard labeling for buffet service. Other than this problem the cruise was wonderful. Ship Details: Ship Quality The ship was very clean and had Purell anti-bacterial dispensers located throughout the ship and in all eating areas. By the second day I was able to make it around the ship to all the places we wanted to go with great ease. The ship is very large but is laid out very well. The decor throughout the ship was top notch and very appropriate for each neighborhood. Dining/Food I was not really happy with the buffet selection and as mentioned previously the food in the buffet not being labeled completely for those with allergies was very disappointing. The food in the main dining room was very good though and there is a big difference between the quality of food in the MDR when compared to the buffet. There are also many complementary cafes and other complementary eateries located throughout the ship if you don't want the Windjammer buffet or MDR. Stateroom Quality The stateroom was very nice and clean, and we had a pretty good view of central park. The bed was also very comfortable. The shower is a little small but not really a big deal unless your a very large person. Ship Staff Quality The staff was very cordial for the most part. Sometimes we weren't sure if it was genuine or if they are aiming for a big tip. When we first got on the ship it initially seemed that some of the staff was a little standoffish. It must be very difficult to work on a cruise ship week after week, so I can understand the staff not always being 100% perfect. I couldn't imagine having to attend to so many people week after week and to always be smiling and gracious. Entertainment & Activities There is so much to do on the ship and can even be a little overwhelming. The shows were really good and all the athletic activities were great as well. Just make sure to use your daily cruise compass to plan your day. It took us a few days to get use to using the cruise compass that gets delivered to the room daily. The fitness room was outstanding and as good as some of the best gyms I have been in. Read this user's port of call reviews: Nassau, Bahamas; Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas, U.S.V.I.; Philipsburg, St. Maarten Collapse List of Ports Ports of Call: Nassau, Bahamas We weren't thrilled with the Bahamas. It seems kind of beneath the Oasis of the Seas to attend this country. Also, maybe we didn't like it because our excursion was really not very interesting. Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas, U.S.V.I. St. Thomas was very nice. Philipsburg, St. Maarten St. Maarten was also very nice. 5 out of 12 people found this review helpful. Did you find this review helpful? Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 65+ Cruise Experience: 7+ cruises Traveler Type: Family w/older children Stateroom Type: Oceanview Thoughts on our recent cruise. by Joseph C. from St. Augustine, FL Sailing date: May 2010 Pros: Central Park - Lots of restaurants. Cons: Charges to use sauna facilities. Beautiful ship. Particularly liked Park Cafe for lunch. Ship Details: Ship Quality Dining/Food We have been on many Royal Caribbean cruises. On this cruise, the food at dinner was good, but the quality of the food has deteriorated over the many cruises we have taken. Stateroom Quality We reserved a category FO stateroom and were surprised and disappointed to find the layout had changed. The stateroom on this cruise did not provide the privacy for adults found on other RCC ships in the category FO.

Cons: The food quality not great The sports activities, pools, shows and different "neighborhoods" on board were unbelievable. The best cruise ship on the seven seas......

Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 50 - 65 Cruise Experience: 7+ cruises Traveler Type: Couple Stateroom Type: Balcony Wow. A different incredible experience. by A Traveler from VA Sailing date: Feb 2010 Pros: Variety of things to see, do and experience.. Size. Cons: Need more vegeterian fare. Big, beautiful and incredible. It is such a incorporation of so many great ideas. Types of shows and the entertainment that they bring. The Aqua show to the Musicals and everything in between. The diversity of the dining experience's are a great concept and add to the overall enjoyment. The fitness center is great. The activities are neverending. Ship Details: Ship Quality Dining/Food Needed more vegetarian fare outside of paid dining venues. Only place to get a vegeburger was at Johnny Rockets which had a cover charge to get in. Need trays to carry food. Hard to juggle silverware, several plates and drink at same time. Stateroom Quality Ship Staff Quality Seemed shortstaffed at the Windjammer cafe. Wife is handicapped and no one came to help her get food. Tough without a tray. Multiple trips to food islands to get what she needed. Would nave been nice for a little help.
