The Oasis Class boasts the world’s largest cruise ships which can only mean bigger and bolder adventures! And don’t worry—every floor has a map that easily helps you navigate the fun aboard.

When booking a cruise on Oasis Class, be ready for a clean, crisp, bold interior with a wide array of amenities for your whole family to enjoy.

• Interior Staterooms sleep up to six guests and up to 340 square feet.
• Ocean View Staterooms include a large square window along with a small couch, king-size bed and desk area. Some of the Ocean View rooms can sleep up to six which is perfect for families.
• Balcony Staterooms provides even more room, with a larger sitting and desk area as well as the balcony itself. Some balcony rooms overlook Central Park which offers a stunning view inside the ship and is surprisingly quiet with soundproof balcony doors.
• Two Bedroom Aquadome Suite offers a king bedroom and a kids’ room sleeping 4 in bunk beds plus a large living room area and a balcony facing the Aquadome Theatre—yes, you can watch the shows right from your room!

All room types offer plenty of storage, with large closets and plenty of drawer space in the desk, bathroom and side tables. The bathrooms were quite spacious as well, with enough room for a shower, toilet and sink with moderate counter space. The room types also included the typical offerings such as a flat screen TV, plenty of US plugs and a hairdryer.

There are also a number of suites on the Oasis Class including Royal Suites and Royal Lofts.

Of all the things parents love about cruising with Royal Caribbean’s Oasis Class is that kids love it too!

Adventure Ocean hosts multiple programs for babies (6 to 36 months old) to kids (12 years old). This new program allows kids to choose their own immersive adventure.

There’s plenty of whimsical rooms to roam and climbable creations to explore at Play Place. Interactive tinker time at Workshop. Friendly competition at Arena. Spaces to call their own at Hangout.

Plus dedicated programs that will engage all the senses for babies and younger kids at AO Babies and AO Junior.

Beyond Adventure Ocean, there’s plenty of places and entertainment to explore as a family on board.

Amenities are another reason our team loves cruising with Royal Caribbean. The pool deck is massive and has so many options for fun, water play, lounging and relaxing. The Royal Caribbean app can help you choose which activities you want to do each day.

Oasis Class ships boast these amazing activities and so much more:

• Carousel
• Aquadome Theater features a stage that goes into water—the shows here are incredible! Our staff onboard say it was the best live performance they’ve ever seen!
• iFLY skydiving simulator
• Royal Escape Room
• Bumper cars
• Glow-in-the-dark laser tag
• FlowRider surf simulator
• Resort-style pools
• Solarium for 18+
• Vitality Spa services for an extra fee
• Ultimate Abyss slide which is not a water slide, but a fun giant tube slide for all ages

You can also spend your evening stage-side with live bands and Las Vegas-inspired productions. Plus you’ll see tons of guest performances and original productions onboard. Don’t miss the ice skating shows—they’re incredible!

Pro tip: reservations for some shows are required and open on the first day of the month prior to your sailing. For example, if you’re sailing July 20th, your show reservations open June 1st.

We certainly can’t leave without mentioning the food! For casual dining like breakfast and lunch, you can choose from a few options. The most popular, with the longest hours for both lunch and dinner, is the Windjammer Café. You can always count on the Windjammer Café to have something delicious, since it offers a huge buffet.

There are more than 20 different dining options, along with more bars and grills so whether you’re looking for pizza, a hot dog, fresh-rolled sushi or Italian cuisine, you’ve got it right here on board.

We love Park Cafe located in Central Park and you have to check out the theme of the Pesky Parrot bar—serving up cocktails and mocktails that are included with a drink package.

One thing we enjoy is that the server and assistant server stay the same for the entire cruise during main dining, which gives you plenty of opportunity to get to know them. They’ll also learn your preferences and are always available to suggest delicious meal options. The dining rooms are gorgeously decorated with floral accents bringing a full sense of elegance with an open atrium.

If you want to try something new, or celebrate a special event, there is specialty dining available for an additional cost like Chef’s Table, the most exclusive dining experience aboard.

If you decide to sail on the Utopia, you won’t be disappointed to find that every Utopia sailing stops at Coco Cay. It truly is your perfect day because the ship pulls right up to the dockside and you’re just steps away from fun, food, parties and relaxation. Whatever you’re looking for you can find it on this massive private island.

Wherever you want to go, chances are Royal Caribbean can take you there! We highly recommend planning your cruise as far in advance as you can, since the best cruise rates – and cabin availability – are found early.

You may find a few last-minute deals, but the savings are often negated by how high the airfare costs to leave so soon.
