Review summary

We love Royal Caribbean!!! They are by far our favorite cruise line! We have been on several of their cruises now and they have never disappointed us! This was our 2nd time on Oasis of the Seas and we loved it just as much the 2nd time as the first! The food is exceptional, the entertainment is great, the staff is attentive and professional, and there is plenty to do onboard. Royal Caribbean's private island Labadee has come all long way since we were several years ago. They have really made it so nice. We would definitely recommend Royal Carribean to others and I'm sure we will be sailing again with Royal Caribbean again - hopefully sometime soon!

Food and Dining

Our head waitress and assistant waitress were excellent! Very attentive to our needs and were very friendly and we felt they genuinely cared about not only our dining experience, but our over all cruise experience! We loved them!

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

The cabin was great, although a little smaller than previous balcony staterooms that we have had. It was clean, our stateroom attendant was very attentive to our needs. The bed was comfortable.

Ship tip

Make sure and book the shows ahead of time on line before you set sail. They no longer require semi-formal nights. There are 2 formal nights and the rest are casual. This makes it nice not having to bring so many dress clothes.

Some of them, maybe. Others, just to get a reaction. If you check you'll see some of these reviewers have no cruise history which begs the question as to the motive behind the reviews

Hi do any of you think that the negative post are from ringers working for other cruise lines to try and get you to go on their ship. I'm just asking?

I agree. I see some negative posts about RC and I wonder what they are talking about. We have been on 5 RC cruises including the Oasis and have always had great experiences. Going on the Allure in December.

PERFECT VACATION!

Cruise was very good, except food was barely marginal. Every steak was 3rd rate, and food was poor quality.

Oaisis in July
