!! Oasis !! 9 Days Medley Cruise ^_^ The Ultimate Review and Complete Pictorial Guide

Looks like a Chinese magnolia tree.

Back on the ship I got the drinks from Boleros.

 

 

Gran Patron for $39, for that price it better come with 3 worms :D

 

 

 

We had no plans on eating dinner that night, we ate way to late. So instead I stopped by park cafe and got a little something. Same remarks about the food here stand true. It is simply convenient and thats it.

Back in the room we found this guy.

With some time to kill before sail away, we went to the solarium to enjoy the jacuzzi.

 

 

They better do a great job cleaning that area, muahhahaha LoL

 

 

 

 

How gorgeous is it here at night, I wish one of them was open.

 

 

[gambee]

 

 

That one was closed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

[gambee]

There was only one jacuzzi open and it was packed! Thankfully, we found some space in there for us, and in we went.

 

 

There was tons of chlorine in that jacuzzi, although I rather that than the other way around. You know, those sweet body pollutants :D

 

 

We must of been there for over an hour and then back to the room to see the ship sail away.

 

The Jewel was leaving.

 

 

And La rumba was doing another run.

 

 

Like I said, that would have been a blast!

This is when the true issues started with our neighbors. I really was not expecting that, but unfortunately it happened that way. It first started with them antagonizing us by striking the lighter multiple times. That lasted for some time. Then they would light a cigarette, get their fix and shut it off. We called security, but by the time they came there was no evidence. These people knew exactly how to play the system in their benefit. Unfortunately RCCL policy is flawed, unless they are caught in the act, nothing can be done. That makes zero sense to me, because they knew how to play it well. It was a very irritating scenario, but at time we could do nothing more than report them. Trust me, that was not the worst of it.

 

So we just “tried to relax” on our balcony until sail away, which came soon enough.

 

 

 

 

 

 

[gambee]

Good bye San Juan, until next time!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[WinstonsMom]

I am almost sure they have it in the condiment stand.

 

Whew! Thanks! :)

At one point my mom got really mad, and she said something along lines “No more smoke, this is ridiculous. I came here to enjoy my vacation and to deal with this”. Next thing you know, they started laughing and mocking her, That is when I just had enough of them. These people have no respect for anyone, not even for their own daughter. RCCL had to fix this for us. We reported that one last time, and security came to our room. The funny thing is that I was in my undies, I could care less at that point. Actually, I am always on my undies, and mom always tells me to put something on.

 

When security came into our room, they shut all the lights off and stood quiet. Security is allowed to look into balconies, but they were right there quietly sitting. They said they would address the issue in the morning. I thought, ok then, thats good. They will fine them, and possibly kick them out if they continue. They were so rude!

 

 

In a way they ruined our sail away.

 

 

[gambee]

 

 

I guess at one point between all the drama with our neighbors, we ordered room service.

 

This Dip was Fabulous.

 

 

 

 

 

Mom went to watch some Karaoke, and I decided to work a little on my pictures. I had yet to back them up. It was pretty late by then, I think around 11 or so.

 

Even with the frustration of our neighbors, it had been a great day. We really enjoyed our time in San Juan, and being part of the first time that Oasis called port there.

 

I will say one thing, that night made me rethink about booking balconies.

 

 

 

End day 4.

[TrixieBel]

 

Mom was really intrigued by these trees that was sprouting flowers. No one knew what kind of tree it was, and until now she does not know. Any help?

 

 

 

Looks like hibiscus

 

 

That is a Plumeria. Found all over Hawaii as well. Smells so good...

Thank you so much for your great review of Oasis. I've been on Allure three times, and am booked on Oasis this September. Your photos are awesome! I'm enjoying the ship and the ports with you, as well as your comments.:):cool:

[pr1vatepiles]

Man I hope the situation with the smokers ends with them walking the plank! Can't believe how rude they were to your mum! Making me rethink balcony as well.

I am a FB stalker, so I know how the smoking situation ends, but I am still fuming (no pun intended, or maybe a little) at how they treated you and your mom. It's a shame that their daughter will probably turn out to be an entitled, rude person if they have anything to do with it. I just don't understand how people can't take responsibility. They were in the wrong and they should have never acted that way. You and your mom should not have had to endure that.

 

It is annoying that security can't walk into their room and smell smoke and fine them. Seriously, smokers still smell like smoke even when they come inside from the balcony.

Gambee!!!!! Come BACK!!!! I need to hear how this ends with the neighbors!:D:D

 

I will say that I am a smoker, however, since the rules went into effect on Carnival, I never dreamed of lighting up on my balcony. Rules are rules.

 

Speaking of which, is it true that the only two smoking areas on Oasis are deck 16 or the casino?:eek::eek:

 

That is going to SUCK!!!! lol

[slvrbllt]

It's like a season finale cliffhanger of your favorite show... Did Gambee's neighbors walk the plank, fed to the sharks, or strung up like the horses?? Stay tuned to find out!!

Beautiful pics Gambee. I'm so sorry you had to deal with those people next door!! Awful.

I am pretty sure they are Plumeria. It was my favorite flower when we went to Hawaii. They also had pink ones, but my favorite was the ones you saw!

[kaczkagirl]

It looks like Plumeria.

[Norway2]

So enjoying your review! You are a great story teller, I'm sitting on the edge of my seat.

Can't wait to hear the rest. Your pictures are beautiful. It's so nice you spend quality time with your mom. I'm going on the Allure in May with my BFF and her mom. She is so much fun. Hope all turns out well and that they walk the plank!

Plumeria is aka FRANGIPANI.

 

We do have them here in Bermuda.

Yes, definitely plumeria. We have quite a few in our yard in So Cal, but I love the white ones the best!! That's what the Hawaiians use to make leis. They smell wonderful!!

[Locobill49]

You should have blasted your horn everytime they lit up. That might have slowed them down! Or had security come into your cabin and wait for them to light up.
