Review summary
The Oasis of the Seas was so much fun. We had a group of 6 and we loved going to the shows after dinner and enjoyed spending time together as well as each couple could do their own thing whenever they wanted too. Being on the ship was never boring and it never felt like you were in the middle of an ocean while traveling to the destinations. St Maarteen was absolutely beautiful as well as we did enjoy the other destinations. I felt like they could of had more adult partys at night, but their were many night clubs and bars to attend. The dinner and staff was terrific every night. We ate all our dinners in the main Dining Room, then second captains night had laobster tail on the menu and they were great in size and not small at all. One thing was there was not that great of a dessert choice fot eh chocolate lovers on the main dining room menu as well as the buffets. We also found the lunch in the Main Dining room to be outstanding, as it was a create your own salad bar prepared by the staff for you with whatever you wanted in it along with a small buffet of different main entrees which was a nice break from the Windjammer buffet. Breakfast was great, Johhny Rockets had a great breakfast at no cahrge, we enjoyed the fact that you could have snacks during the day and late at night such as pizza and tiny sandwiches at different restaurants.We indulged in the drink package which I am not sure was make or break for us, I have seen that if you drink 9 drinks a day you come out ahead, but sometimes it was hard to get 9 drinks in a day with going off the ship at the ports, but it was no hassle getting a drink and not having to sign for each drink was great. One thing to keep i n mind is that with the drink package you alread pay for the gratuities so if you dont purchase the drink package then you ahve a gratuitie added each time you purchase a beverage which to me would add up very easily. We had a balcony room over looking Central park which was nice but next time I will pay a bit more for a ocean view room. It was amazing that bartenders, wait staff along with the stateboard attendant remember you and called you by name eachtime they saw you, one time my husband went to the On Air bar and got a drink and a few days later he went back and the bartender remembered him and called him by name, he was in disbelief that he did that it. So with all this being said, it was a great time and great fun with friends on the Oasis of the sea and we will definetly go again in the near future.Ship experiences
