1-10 of 11 Bayonne (Cape Liberty) Royal Caribbean Oasis of the Seas Cruise Reviews
The absolute worst cruise I've ever been on. Filthy rooms, bad food, lost our luggage and never found it ( there was cash inside it), surprise it was never found..lol, extraordinarily rude guest services, our sofa was so filthy we couldn't sit on it, they covered it with a bed sheet! Entertainment was very disappointing. We had trouble with this cruise since 2 days after we made the reservation, ...
After 19 months, it was GREAT to be back on a ship.
Pre-cruise: You were required to upload your vax card AND get a test within 2 days of departure. You will receive an email from Royal with your testing options.
The long check-in process: I've cruised from Cape Liberty many times. Short line for luggage drop-off, and then WOW! The line to get into the terminal was longer ...
WOW! WAY TO GO ROYAL! I just returned from the 7 night Oasis sailing from NJ with a group of 5. All members of my party LOVED this cruise and believe it was one of the best we've been on (averaging over 12 cruises each).
Embarkation/disembarkation -
Very easy process, you must have your vaccine card, passport, and negative covid test. These documents are checked MULTIPLE times for ...
We had a great time on this cruise the only issue was they did not have any post cards or anything for younger children to purchase. Multiple cruisers were looking for these items as well. When we got to the Bahamas a lot of the stores were closed down (most likely due to covid) so we were unable to bring anything back for our grandkids which was a bummer.
The cruise itself was nice the kids ...
About the Reviewer: I’m in my late 30s and sailed on the Oasis of the Seas solo on the October 10th to October 17, 2021 cruise. This was my 48th overall cruise and my fifth with Royal Caribbean. I booked under an amazing solos rate for a balcony room. This ship was chosen due to its size and the lower passenger counts and amount of fresh air venues within the ship. Over half my sailings have been ...
Oasis of the Seas
Sailed out of Bayonne, NJ on October 3, 2021 on Oasis of the Seas. Excited to cruise again. We had last sailed March 2020 the day before CDC advised not to cruise. On that voyage, one port was closed to us and then San Juan denied us our return debarkation. Scary ending to a trip, but we felt ready now to cruise on a Vaccination Required ship.
First time out of Bayonne, ...
I love cruising and I have missed it soo much. I was so lucky to be able to book a last-minute cruise on Oasis. I am fully vaccinated plus I just received my booster. My husband and I are both nurses. I am so happy that Royal wants everyone vaccinated and tested except for children who are not able to be vaccinated. It is impossible to write a review without talking about COVID protocols. ...
The food quality has dropped and drinks appear to now be very watered down. This is definitely a decline over past cruises with RCCL. They must be struggling due to running at lower capacity with Covid, but they should not be skimping on quality to get by. I was very disappointed. I have cruised almost exclusively with RCCL for over 20 years and this has been the worst. The room was fine - ...
We did b2b2b. So many of our cruises were canceled we decided to do this. Wonderful is not good enough. Ship was at reduced capacity no problem with that. Mask among us who are vaccine was never a problem. I have a difficult time with masks, problem was almost non existent Show were available to us all over the ship Adult only pool was closed to unvaccinated . Walking to shops and in ...
We chose this cruise because we live in Buffalo New York and we could drive to New Jersey to disembark after 15 months of not sailing. We've sailed on other Oasis class ships but never this one and really wanted to experience it.
Highlights were: portside BBQ, aqua 80 show, frozen in time ice skating show, Apollo 18 escape room, coastal kitchen and suite lounge.
The crew is doing a great job ...
