We normally cruise twice a year and rccl is our favorite line.
Checking was amazingly fast we left our hotel at 11am and was sitting in suite lounge at 1130. Most organized luggage pickup in all my 60 plus cruises.
This was also our first cruise as diamond plus, but when you are in a suite those perks do not mean much.
Owners suite was huge, we normally book grand suites, big difference ...
This was our 6th time with RCCL and the biggest ship but our balcony room was really too small for 3 of us even tough it "sleeps four"!
The ship itself is excellent an dthere is plenty to do - the standad of the outdoor diving show and the indoor ice skating was superb .The comedy shows were also good but Cats was far too long and sadly most people left in the interval
We did like the fact ...
I previously was on a much smaller ship (Rhapsody of the Seas) and wanted to see the difference. While I do like the smaller size of Rhapsody for getting around easily and less people, I admit that I much prefer Oasis for it's entertainment. Every night we went to a different show and each was very professional. There was an ice skating show, high diving & synchronized swimming show as well as ...
We chose this cruise because it sailed from Port Canaveral (only 1 1/4 hours from home) and its ports(Western Caribbean). We took our two adult children for a getaway without Grandkids for a relaxing time.
The ship was in good shape and our balcony rooms had ample space and storage. The service in the dining rooms was exceptional, some of the best we have ever had in the 25+ cruises we have ...
From a quick drop of luggage, to getting our Sea Cards, to the most wonderful Cabin Steward, Rod (Rodhel Leno-no relation), to the best waitstaff in the dining room-server and assistant-we received the best service that way passed our expectations. As we're on our 12th cruise and had read mixed reviews about this ship, we had our whole family (8 of us iincluding a 20 month old, we were not ...
Hey all! I am Channing, and I travelled with my boyfriend Shawn. Both early to mid 30s, from California. We have cruised Carnival twice and Princess once, so this was our first time on Royal. We originally booked a south pacific cruise out of Sydney but unfortunately, couldn't make it happen, so we opted for this cruise that looked really fun, and was easier on the budget. Shawn's mom lives ...
Chose this cruise to experience the Oasis class ship. We have tried the Voyager class before and wanted to see what the differences were. The cruise it self was fantastic. We did have some issues with weather, but that is expected in September in the Caribbean. This did impact a couple of the shows (Cats and the Aqua-theatre Comedy show). The only thing we would say is the ship itself was a bit ...
We chose this ship because of the size, the amenities, the live entertainment and cost.
We found the ship to be somewhat crowded but not where you couldn't move. The buffet lines for breakfast and lunch were somewhat long but nothing more than 5 minute wait.
There were 6,400 passengers and approx 2,000 crew.
We had my-time dining which worked out fine. We just told them we wanted 7:30 ...
We were apprehensive about cruising on a boat with 6,000+ passengers but after the first day were pleasantly surprised that it didn't feel more crowded than some of the previous cruises we have taken on smaller boats. The first day was chaotic as having so many people trying to figure out where to go on the ship was congested but after that it was fine. We are not "sun" people so we did not go on ...
Recommended by a previous passenger.
The enormous ship is an amazing structure and well fitted out with extraordinary features. The Promenade and Central Park decks were amazing and always encouraged us back for a meal, drink or social engagement or entertainment.
The shows were absolutely fantastic. Cats could have been from Broadway and the theatre is one of the best one will experience. ...
