We booked the Oasis 19 months early and were counting the days!! We were 6 women traveling for a girlfriends cruise (no husbands / kids allowed)!!

We stayed at the Hyatt Regency Pier 66 hotel for 2 nights pre cruise (separate review on that but recommend it). We booked a shuttle to the ship for 11am and boarding was seamless. We were on the ship by noon eating lunch in the Park Cafe in Central Park. The salads and the roast beef sandwiches are very good as everyone says. We went to our cabins on the 11th deck at 1pm and they were ready for us. We had 2 balcony rooms and 1 inside room just down the hall. The steward was very accommodating, and opened our balcony divider so we could share the balcony, and found us 2 extra chairs for our friends. The rooms were great and every space was utilized. I loved waking up in the morning and going straight outside to look at the ocean. Our luggage arrived before dinner.

The service on this ship was fantastic most of the time. It boggles my mind that they can serve over 6000 people the way they do. We used all the free restaurants, including the Windjammer for breakfast and lunch (on occasion), the Park Cafe for lunch a few times, the Solarium cafe for lunch and breakfast once, room service on our balcony for breakfast a few times, and dinner in the dining room 6 nights. I have to say that the dining room service was FANTASTIC. One of the girls had many allergies, and Sorin - head waiter - went above and beyond to accommodate her every need. I can not stress enough how far this guy would go for her. She would pre-order her meal the night before and it would be ready for her, made exactly how she needed it every night. One night she forgot to pre-order so he went ahead and ordered for her. He even had specially made desserts made for her. SO GOOD!!!!!!! Our assistant waiter was also excellent. The food was delicious every night and the service was amazing. We had my time reservations booked before we boarded, and they always made sure we sat at the same table every night, even though our reservation times were different.

Cabin Review

Superior Ocean View Stateroom with Balcony

Cabin D8

D8 ocean view balcony on deck 11. Great room with lots of space and very quiet. Only issue was a squeeky noise coming from the balcony on occasion. Very convenient to everything and very comfortable.
