Review summary

Oasis of the Seas is overall a good ship. There is something to do for everyone. The teen center made my daughters week!

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Once we found the terminal we had to park at it was good. The workers directing us to parking lot were not very helpful so we ended up going around in circles in the heavy traffic.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
All I can speak of is the main dining room and buffet, and they were fabulous! Great food and great service.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
My daughters did a lot more than I did including the flow rider, rock wall, waterslides and loved them all. We all enjoyed the Abyss slide greatly, the fitness center was great just a little hard to find, pools are a little small for the amount of people.

Entertainment

3 out of 5
We were VERY disappointed to not be able to see the Aqua show on board. The pool was out of service. The musical was great for me, but not good for kids. This should be something that is more family oriented, such as Grease was on our last cruise.

Children's Programs

5 out of 5
My girls loved the teen center! They met all kinds of friends, and the activities were never ending. The staff seemed very involved as well.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
Our room steward, Antonio was amazing! Our room was always clean, and he was right on top of it when we were out of the room. The main dining room service was amazing. The only thing we didn't get was some of the feeling we have had before where our waiter really got to know us. The bar service was not great on this ship. I was a bit disappointed by this. There were a few GREAT servers, but a lot of not so good. They were a bit rude, and seemed bothered to help.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Ship is great, Common areas are very clean. Only issue I had was some of the floors had a musty order.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Our bed set up was better on the Harmony, but it worked okay. Cabin was always very clean.

Ship tip

Reserve your shows ahead of time so you can get to what you want when you want.

Ports of call

Labadee (Cruise Line Private Island)

4 out of 5
My girls did the Aqua park. They had a good time. Otherwise we just enjoyed the beach for a while and got back on the ship early

San Juan, Puerto Rico

5 out of 5
I loved San Juan. The fort is amazing. The prices in the shops are great! Overall people were very friendly.

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

5 out of 5
St. Thomas is beautiful. The downtown area is fun.

Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas

4 out of 5
The port is beautiful. The staff was good, but not enough servers around. My daughters visited the waterpark, and I was very disappointed for them that they were only able to do 3 slides all day because of how long the lines were. This was NOT worth the $.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Disembarkation was smooth
