Embarkation

5 out of 5
Well organized and smooth operation for boarding.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
We always book for my time dining and pre-reserve all dinner times prior to sailing, however, on this sailing there were line management issues whereby guests without reservations were being seated faster than those with reservations. Additionally the lines were not processed quick enough causing there to be major back ups and long wait times (very rare and isolated situation in our opinion).

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Sport staff was amazing, very outgoing and personable.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Headliner “Revoiced” (an a cappella group) was superb! All shows are extremely entertaining and professionally staged. The entertainment staff are so talented.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Our room steward Rossi was fabulous as were our waiter Norman and assistant waiter Robi. Zanele (Sabor server) is outstanding, request her section.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Oasis class ships are our favorite design overall with it’s expansive promenade and dual Flowriders.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Superb except sliding door to the balcony required a little more strength than usual to close.

Ship tip

Central Park balcony cabins provides free lunch in a specialty restaurant (Sabor is what we usually choose).

Ports of call

Labadee (Cruise Line Private Island)

5 out of 5
Always enjoy relaxing on the beach , this time we went to the section known as Columbus Cove.

Falmouth, Jamaica

3 out of 5
Unless you’re doing a shore excursion, the port has little to offer, we prefer to use the ship facilities while everyone else is ashore.

Cozumel, Mexico

4 out of 5
We always go to our favorite restaurant in San Miguel (El Abuelo Gerardo). Great authentic fresh food that is reasonably priced. Love the sangria!
