Review summary

Wonderful cruise - would definitely book this ship again

Embarkation

5 out of 5

We were in a 2 bedroom suite - 10 minutes or less to get on ship

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

We didn't eat at the MDR, instead purchased the 3 dinners and then had all other main meals in the Coastal Kitchen

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

We enjoyed the pools (solarium) and our older children did the rock climbing.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

We watched hairspray - good show. We were unable to book/re-book the Hiro due to weather and scheduling conflict.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

The staff was very friendly and attentive

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

This is the best ship layout - even exceeds the other (older) Oasis ships. The solarium - 2 level was a welcome addition that provided many more chairs

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

2 Bedroom suite had plenty of room and was kept clean even with the amount of people we had in the suite

Ship tip

Take some time to find your way around the ship. Pay attention to the posted signs to guide you to places

Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas

Don't ever NOT go ashore. There is so much to do that doesn't require any extra costs.
