We live 1 1/2 hours from Port Canaveral, so its a no brainer to leave out of that Port. We were curious about the Oasis as we had never been on such a large ship before. We were not disappointed. The staff, entertainment, food and appearance of the ship was just perfect. We went with friends who have cruised on the Oasis before and that was really helpful. Its a BIG ship, took me about a day and a half to get oriented, but after that it was fine. We also bought the food package...well worth the $. Nice choice of restaurants and the food is top notch. All of the shows were outstanding. We found a nice little jazz bar with the band Remedy, and they really blew us away. The different neighborhoods on the boat are fun, the boardwalk, central park, solarium area...let me just say we we never bored. I would absolutely do this again!
Seemed a little small at first, but after a couple of days, and some better organization, we were fine. The balcony made a wonderful addition.
