Loved the Royal Caribbean Experience

I loved cruising with Royal.  Oasis of the Seas is a gorgeous ship!  With so many people on board it is a bit difficult to get used to though.  Despite the fact everyone disperses very well on a ship this size, there are still times when it is noticeable.  The pool decks get pretty crowded, and the chairs are right on top of each other.  This ship could certainly use less specialty restaurants and more pool space.  We found that when the pools were full, they were FULL.  The solarium was our favorite area of the ship for sitting out in the sun for sure.  Much less of a crowd there.

The staff was outstanding!  Very courteous and helpful when needed.  Rock climbing, Zip Line, and the Surf machines are so cool.  We didn't use them more than once but still awesome. 

Loved all of the shows aside from Cats which just wasn't that appealing to us.  It was very long and just not that exciting.  On that note I would like to see more options for shows.  The Comedy shows booked so fast, but we still managed to get into 2 of them without reservations.  VERY funny.

I could go on forever about positive things, but I will leave with one more critical comment.  The food was excellent, HOWEVER you cannot alter what they are offering.  My wife likes things very plain, and you would think that this would make things simple, but this was not the case.  All of their sandwiches in the cafe promenade for example are premade with some odd sauces on them.  For me I enjoyed them, but if you want just a basic turkey sandwich they cannot do it.  The same goes for dinner.  something delicious might be smothered in something you don't care for, so you are forced to try something else.  I know many people enjoy this, but it's not so great for picky eaters.  At the cost of a cruise I feel they should be able to cater to custom orders.  Especially when boasting the size of the culinary staff so much.

I will be back despite these things though!

Happy Cruising
