We are finally home from our Back-2-Back on the Oasis -
A really different experience from all our other cruises; but…. That’s why we booked it after all these years of saying we would not like the 6,000 pax + 2500 crew. 8,500 people on a ship is a LOT – I don’t care how big she is.
I should start off by saying the ship is ABSOLUTELY MAGNIFICENT. We spent the frist day walking around saying “WOW” a lot. Even at the end of the first week, I was still getting confused as to “where” certain venues were. “Let’s see, is that on the Promenade, or Central Park, or maybe it was on Deck 4”…..
The suite was nice - but quite small compared to the Grand Suites on other ships. I was really surprised at how much smaller the GS was. There was only about 1/2 the normal closet space. The Bar/Counter was about 1/2 normal size. The room overall was about 120 to 150 square feet smaller, and the balcony and its furniture was disappointing when compared to other RCI ships.
