Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm not going to have this one be as long as other ones because if you want to see my Wonder of the Seas or my Oasis of the Seas, I have a couple other ships in this class that will go into more detail.

My opinion is Oasis of Ace has the best solarium in the fleet. Um, it's my opinion. I think it's by far the best, but this one's still pretty good.

If you want a really quiet, nice, relaxing vibe on a ship, do not book Royal Caribbean Oasis class ships. Uh just just my tip for you.

This is a mass market, big party, seek, come seek, fun, etc. Uh, yeah, but that's my Central Park tour.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Avoid the spa on embarkation day to prevent high-pressure sales.
Book reservations for dinner at the solarium restaurant.
Find quieter spaces if you prefer relaxation, as Oasis class ships are action-packed.
