Oasis Nov.13,2016 -Mini Review

[claret23]

Rating: 3.5 stars

 

Positives:

the ship is beautiful; our junior suite was terrific; the crew was energenic, friendly, smiling, and most of all very accommodating. The food was mostly good, especially Giovannis(2 times), Park Cafe(roast beef sandwich) outstanding.Windjammer very good;if you couldn't find something to like, you didn't try hard enough. Main dining ok, not great. Crowding for the most part ok, considering a full ship.

 

Negatives:

disembarkation a nightmare-long slow lines, maybe due to customs only manning 8 of 16 stations on a Sunday with 2 Carnival arrivals also.Due to my bad back, wife found wheelchair which was a great help. Felt sorry for the vast number of older folk forced to endure that.

Lastly, and why I would not cruise again on Oasis, and probably any Oasis class ship, was the noise level on PA and shows. Left one show cause I couldn't tolerate it. And most important could not tolerate the female voice shouting on the Promenade, hawking the various shops and sales.was uncomfortable even tryin to enjoy a cocktail 🍹 in Schooners or Champagne Bar.If I'm already on the Promenade, I certainly don't need to go deaf over pricey shopping or junk sales.

 

Stars: -1 for disembarkation

-1.5 for LOUD

Thanks! The port-related stuff is greatly helpful to hear about since Oasis just made the move up to PC

Thanks for the feedback, we felt the same way about the noise level on the Royal Promenade.

Was on the same time and I agree, debarking was a nightmare and my only complaint with the promenade was them having the purse sale the same time as the

t-shirt sale right next to each other, lol, i was trapped for a bit. Giovannis was worth the $29 and I can't say this enough DON'T MISS FINIS HENDERSON!!!!! best show I've seen on the high seas.
