We booked this as a very last minute cruise for myself, husband and 2 kids. We found an amazing last minute fare and couldn't pass it up. We are gold on Carnival.
This was our first time on another cruise line and we were so excited to check out the Oasis.
The ship itself did not disappoint! It is beautiful! And the layout was great. It very rarely felt crowded at all. The "neighborhood" concept it has really helped keep the crowds spread out enough so that even though there were over 6500 passengers, it never felt that way.
Loved the location of our room! Only downfall was having to remember to only use the port side elevator because the hallways were inaccessible to each other because of the boardwalk sign between them.
Port area was nice. Took a cab to downtown for lunch and shopping. Best place to buy quality vanilla way cheaper than in the states.
Not much in/around port. Have to travel to one of the other ports for excursions.
Loved the pressure free beach! No pushy vendors. Water was nice. Lots of chairs!
