I would not hesitate to book either one, but Symphony is not $1800 better than Oasis, IMO.

That seems to be the consensus here. Symphony is nice, but not $1800 nicer. My husband agrees too, LOL.

Well, it's better for adults. 😉

Cabanas, hot tubs for Lime and Coconut are on the upper deck of Oasis

Symphony Kiddie pool might be better.

 

Don't pay attention to the reviews, most are old complaining about the original longer version.

 

Thanks for the positives! I'll check out this review. 😉

Aqua 80 is better than Hiro, but Flight is way better than One Sky. Ice shows are a toss up. 

 

I like CATS😉

 

@Silversun

Oasis has a better pool deck,  especially the upper deck

Symphony has a better Solarium 

Oasis has Playmakers👍

El Loco on Symphony is better

Windjammer on Symphony is better

Music Hall on Oasis is better than Dazzles on Symphony 

Spa on Oasis is nicer

 

Book Oasis 

I like Cats too! But the reviews I've read are scaring me, lol.  Thanks for the info.  My kids will def like the better pool deck.

Have sailed both

For the price difference I would go Oasis

Both ships are great

Entertainment at its best 😊
Something for everyone

Thanks! Nice to hear from someone who has been on both ships.  I do like the "savings" of Oasis.

@cruisegirl 1 Thank you! Yeah, with a high price difference, my husband is wondering the same thing.

Being hunkered at home has me thinking about our next tropical vacation! We've done Disney for our last 2 cruises and want to change things up. We want to do a western caribbean cruise to Mexico. During the time frame that we're looking at, Oasis of the Seas and Symphony of the Seas are going to the same ports.  The only difference is cost - Symphony is about $1800 more.  Our kids will be 7, 11 and 13.  Both ships offer a lot of great activities for the kids, family and adults.  I'll be doing some more research in the coming days, but wanted to get your opinion on your likes/dislikes of each ships, what to do/not to do, etc.  Anyone know what the major differences between the ships?  This will be our 1st time sailing on a mega boat and my little guy is super excited.  Stay safe and well!
