Review summary
My wife and I just returned from a 7 day eastern caribbean cruise on Royal Caribbean's Oasis of the Seas. Overall we were very pleased. The ship is not only enormous but also beautiful. We had a Deck 12 Junior Suite about midship and loved the room. Even though the JS does not come with full Suite perks the larger room, bath with tub, bigger balcony, and walk-in closet made it worth it to us. Our stateroom attendant, Mike, was exceptional. In fact, all crew we encountered were friendly and helpful. Food ranged from merely good in the Windjammer buffet to excellent in the high end specialty venues. Where they lost a star was also in the size of the ship. Even though the ship is enormous you are cruising with over 6,000 other people when the ship is at full capacity. Crowds are unavoidable and at times the elevators cannot cope even though there are 24 of them available for passengers. Still, the times when the ship felt overcrowded were rare. My wife and I are planning a western caribbean cruise on the Oasis, or possibly the Allure, for sometime next year.Ship experiences

Ship tip
Windjammer was our favorite place to eat daily. 150 Central Park and Chef's Table probably tied for best meal.
