Elvis Tribute Artist cruise; having sailed on many RCCL ships, I found Adventure to have positives (smaller size easier to get around) and negatives (RCCL has tried to squeeze all of the amenities of Oasis class ships into this smaller one making for some tight spaces). Food was OK but choices very limited. Complimentary was either the main dining room with service that was way over the top ...
Do you like shopping malls? Do you not mind crowds? Do you not minding standing in line? If so, then the Oasis of the Seas might be for you. If not, you might want to look at another vacation venue. Overall, this was a slightly disappointing, average cruise. There were a few likes and several dislikes, but not enough for me to say that it was the worst vacation ever or the best vacation ever. ...
We went to celebrate my husband's birthday. His brother also went and it was his first cruise,. He said he really enjoyed it so I think he is hooked. We had a great time! We stayed in a inside cabin looking into the promenade, which is my favorite way for inside cabins.The first day at sea was chilly so we found things to do inside. The food was ok, the best meal was lobster night which is on ...
This ship is not for everybody. I do not recommend this cruise for people who don't like crowds (usually military, law enforcement, etc). Their were 5500 people on this ship, not including the help. There are two small pools that are always packed and people leave their towels on the chairs for hours. Even though a sign is posted, towels will be removed after 30 minutes, they never were. If ...
We chose this sailing as a short and inexpensive trip that my whole family would have time for. While there was little exceptional about this sailing, it was very nice that nothing went wrong. Twice on Carnival the ships had stabilizers fail. Once on Holland America the ship lost an engine and we had terrible diesel fumes. So, no problems to report is noteworthy.
The ship struck me as a ...
We chose this cruise based on the variety of activities. We traveled with our adult children, their spouses, grandchildren, and our siblings. We usually cruise with Carnival, but wanted to try the big ship experience.
We booked our cruise through the Royal Caribbean website. The site leaves a lot to be desired, our account frequently locked and it was hard to navigate.
Embarkation: We ...
I chose Oasis because I had already been on Allure and it was good. This was also the closest port to my home and easiest to get to. The embarkation was a nightmare, with taking over an hour to get thru security. Once on the ship, they did not open the rooms until 2:15 p.m. Muster was also bad. We arrived 25 minutes early and were told to stand single file and must face forward. We were ...
Loved the ports of call on itinerary. Warm and beautiful despite being January.
Unfortunately this sailing was the one following the Norovirus outbreak...so we didn't have the usual cruise experience. People on their first cruise didn't know any different so it may have not been an issue for them. Until day 6 the staff had to serve at every buffet, and drink station, no salt and pepper shakers ...
Get-a-way winter cruise with similar generation guest onboard. Room service was excellent, room was clean and adequate square footage. Both dining room and Windjammer offered variety of tasty food....real orange juice would taste better than the watered down "frozen", service in dining room was slow (need more help), but very cordial and willing to serve your needs. Evening Entertainment was ...
Diving show was amazing. Olympians top notch. Shows were incredible. Food... excellent. Of course took advantage of many food options and gained weight. Lol. Beautiful ship. So much to do. Beds were comfortable. Clean and tidy. Staff aimed to please. I would recommend this ship to anyone. I’ll bring children next time. They are catered to. Ports of call were fun. Water aqua and clear. Pools were ...
