Review summary

It was our 50th anniversary cruise with our children and grandkids and we all had the best week. Weather was perfect at clear and 85 everyday. Ship is beautiful and well designed. Service was outstanding yet food was only good to very good. All ports were good with only area to improve being to reduce lines a Cococay water park

Embarkation

3 out of 5
Very poor. Employees checking in our family of 10 was confused and needed help as if they were poorly trained. 45 min check in that normally goes smooth

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Main dining room very good. Wait staff had excellent service. Choice of appetizers need to be improved in quality and number of choices. We did not try any specialty restaurants.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Excellent service in main dinning room and wind jammer

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Love the oasis class ships. Favorite areas are promenade and central park All of ship was clean and well maintained

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Well designed ocean view balcony cabin with a his and hers closet. Lay out with bed by balcony was better than those cabins where you walk into bed

Ship tip

Reserve all shows prior to check in. Be prepared to be constantly approached to buy drink and dinner packages

Ports of call

Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas

4 out of 5
Great job in renovating the island. Do not recommend the water park—too crowded and lines too long. Family was there most of day and were able to go on 2 or 3 slides. Surprised to learn on larger sliders you need to make reservations ( never told this when tickets were purchased)... the time at oasis pool was outstanding. Food was above average

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

4 out of 5
Mostly shopped at port area. Enjoyed fish pedicures. Decided not to taxi to town (party of 12) and enjoyed the ship pools

Coxen Hole, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras

4 out of 5
Excellent catamaran snorkeling excursion- purchased from RC

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
Best port of all. Had a blast at Mr Sachos beach resort and shopping at port on th way back to ship

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Excellent..the use of face recognition by US customs really made it quick and smooth.

Thank you for the review. We did not know about the reservations of the slides at coco cay...2 or 3 rides/day is not much...
