Review summary
We were on the Oasis for 8 nights beginning 12/31/2016. The ship was very nice. Even thought the ship is huge, it never felt crowded on board. There was always a place to sit on the deck, sit for breakfast/lunch etc. The emphasis on cleanliness was impressive. From the hand sanitizer in the Windjammer to the recommendation to open public restroom doors with a paper towel, everything was immaculate. Service was also commendable, especially in the restaurants. We were on a different cruise line a couple of years ago and the service was not even comparable to what we received on the Oasis. My only complaint was with respect to our excursion on St. Kitts. We did a nature kayak excursion which was not well organized at all. The excursion vendors need to be better vetted before they are considered for booking by Royal Caribbean. We were also less than thrilled with the beaches on the Royal Caribbean private Island of Labadee, Haiti. The beaches were very rocky (hard to walk on). I would have rather had another island as a stop on the itinerary.
All in all a lovely vacation.
