We selected this cruise for the ship. It was well worth the wait and excitement. So much to do and all done very nicely. We have already booked a cruise on a sister-ship since we enjoyed it so much.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
With a ship this large, I expected to wait to get through and on to the ship. I was on the boat within 20 minutes of entering the building. They have this process down. Very smooth and fast!
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
We loved the food and dining room experience. The wait staff was the best we have had (20+ cruises). Food was wonderful, and they would bring out additional items to our table that they thought we might enjoy trying.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
You can do as much or as little as you want on this ship. There is something for everyone! We enjoyed the pools and many activities for kids. Even with 6000 passengers, there was always room to find a place by the pool.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
The shows are different than anything I had seen before. I have always enjoyed the shows on RC, but this one took it up a notch. Wonderful, and worth going to!
Children's Programs
5 out of 5
My kids are older (12, 17) and did some of the teen program items which were fun. This ship offers a great deal for children, which is wonderful.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Everyone went out of their way to ask if they could help or if we were enjoying our time. The RC service is always great.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
For a ship this size, I thought it may be difficult to get around. They have spaced things in a way that makes it less likely to have too many people in one area of the ship. It was easy to get around, and lots of great areas to discover.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
Very clean and nice. We had 3 in the cabin, which made it tight when the bed was out. Other than that, it was great location and nicely done.
We have been here several times. It is good to learn that there is a beautiful, and less busy area in the very back (take the tram) that has shade and beautiful beaches. It is worth the extra time to get back there.
Just as getting on, they have getting 6000 people off the boat an easy and fast process. I was worried about having an earlier flight, so I booked a later one. I could have easily made an 11:30 am flight with as quickly as we were able to get off the ship.
Took Oasis in 2012 for my 25 year military retirement. My twins have been asking for 5 years when they would be going back to that big ship. Oasis here we come...can't wait.
Breezedreamer123...take the negative reviews with a grain of salt. Many of those negative comments may be due to poor planning as well or unrealistic expectations. I have gone on all 3 Oasis class ships and have loved all three of them. Looking forward to Symphony as well!
Going on Oasis again in 8 looonnnggg months. Harmony in Sept 2018 & we are booking for New Year Eve cruise soon for this year!!! Can’t wait. We sailed on the Oasis in Jan of this year & loved it!!!
You really have to be careful reading the negative reviews of any ship, any line. It's human nature to want to read them and become concerned, but so many reviews are so off from my experiences it makes me ask if people truly live such miserable lives.
It's good to see a positive review. We are booked for January and have seen a lot of negative comments from people. We love RCI. Thanks for the review!
