This was certainly not one of the better cruises we have taken on Royal Caribbean. We flew to Ft. Lauderdale on Sunday, 11/12/23 and got on the Royal Caribbean shuttle to Miami. We were a quarter mile from the Royal Caribbean terminal and the bus broke down on the highway. After sitting in the hot bus for an hour we transferred to another bus and was shuttled to the terminal. By this time most ...
There were four of us traveling. We made reservations over a year ago. When we checked in my sister’s reservation was missing they would not let her through security with the rest of us to board so we were separated us, letting 3 of us on the ship but she was not allowed instead she was sent to an office , we had to wait for her on the Promenade for more than half an hour, when she finally did ...
We booked this cruise because we've enjoyed our cruises on similar class ships--especially Allure, then Harmony. Also, we booked well in advance and got a reasonable price. Wanted something that cruised out of Miami or Ft. Lauderdale.
First, for the PRO'S:
1)The ship has an impressive look with the beautiful Central Park and fun Boardwalk.
2)This ship offered Pickleball every ...
Honestly this cruise experience for me was one of the worst cruises ive ever had. No ironing rooms on each floor (which carnival has). Shows like the aqua show getting cancelled without notifying or rescheduling. Stateroom not having soap, little towel animals, or vacuumed floors (carnival does a better job). Stateroom people never answer the phone when called. Beverage packages shown pre cruise ...
This was a first time cruise for my husband and I. We have done many all inclusive and pay as you go vacations but we wanted to try something different.
We were both concerned about sea sickness and feeling trapped on a boat however to our surprise the Oasis of the seas is a floating city that at times you would never know it’s a boat!
Embarking was so easy. It went very smoothly we ...
We are geeks and chose the ship because of the size, the Gardens, and the space to do things. Every day I would discover new areas of the ship that I had not seen before. There were endless activities, walking the promenade, the boardwalk, etc. and enjoying all the restaurants was amazing. We enjoyed the people on the cruise and made a lot of friends. We did not see out of control kids (as has ...
It's been 9 years since our last cruise and we booked this cruise sort of last minute. We were limited to one set of dates so I looked at a few different vacation options and ultimately opted for this cruise because I found a good deal on a balcony room - which we've never had before. I was also excited because this would be the largest ship we ever cruised on and never cruised on an "Oasis" class ...
Post pandemic excited to get back to cruising. Booked Allure in October and quickly saw how things have changed. I am all for the cruise lines trying to make up for lost money but not at the expense of customers and in this case ones that routinely do 3-4 cruises a year strictly with RCCL. 39 with RCCL alone in 12 years.
Had Oasis booked already so we decided to go thinking maybe just a rare ...
I open my big yap and told the wife I wanted to take a cruise on one of them huge boats. I don’t remember the name.. Stupendous of the Briny, or something like that.
After six months of bank account draining payments, I find myself boarding a ship about the size of Kansas.
Now the one that we're on is the one that has the central park in the center (of course) and a water show at the ...
This was my 25th cruise but my first on a ship this large. There was more diversity among the passengers on this ship then anything I’ve even seen. We saw people from all over the world, heard more languages, more gay couples and really large people then I’ve even seen in one place before. We were told that there were 6200 passengers onboard and many times we found ourselves in very crowded ...
