Creator's Key Takeaways

I have cruised on Royal Caribbean's Oasis of the Seas four times now. And after cruising after four times, this is my honest review.

I was really surprised and really happy that it looked so nice.

I absolutely love this service. It was makes it feel more elevated.

I think that as much as I do love Oasis, I might not book it again anytime soon.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Consider booking a suite for access to Coastal Kitchen and suite lounge benefits.
Be aware that the ship can feel very crowded, even in winter.
