I had the misfortune of traveling on the Oasis of the Seas last week. I've been on 7 or 8 cruises in the past. This ship is way to big, there are too many people. You're always waiting for elevators. Our cabin was on the 11th deck. Many times the elevator door would open and there would be no space. The pool areas are over crowded people on top of each other, Upon returning to the ship from the Island stops, there is only 1 way on, everyone returns to the same place.I felt uncomfortable.

The itinerary wasn't very good either. First stop Nassau for a few hours is a waste. The St Marteen & St Thomas stops are great. If you do go to St Thomas I suggest you to the ferry to St John. The real problem is that from 4:30 Wednesday afternoon until you're back in Ft Lauderdale you're at sea. It was very windy those days compounding the over crowding problems because the upper pool levels were closed.

My cabin was in poor shape. As you know there isn't much space but the drawers were broken and made things difficult. I didn't mention it to the staff because I didn't want to deal with people in and out of my cabin, that's on me. The safe didn't work and that required 3 visits by a repair person. The biggest surprise were the towels. I couldn't believe it but they gave use torn towels on more than 1 day and I have pictures to prove it.
