This is a vertical drop slide located in the Sports Zone’s pool (aft-ship location). The experience starts with a walk across a plank into the jaws of an anglerfish and boarding one of the specially-designed mats. Slide mats are coloured in black, each with an opening for the feet and a strap to hold on to. Follows the vertical drop (27-degree) some 92 ft / 28 m down to the Boardwalk.
Free Dining
Ship's Royal Amplified drydock refurb is scheduled for 2019 (September 22 - November 23) and budgeted USD 165 million (EUR 150M). By this 63-day long drydocking project (at Navantia Shipyard in Cadiz Spain) many new venues will be added, including some fleet-firsts. By the Jogging Track (aft on Deck 5/Promenade) there are several small seating areas fitted with all-weather Adirondack chairs (positioned near the railings). The Perfect Storm is a 3-deck high waterslide complex (deck 18 entry, down to deck 15 exit /Beach Pool) which consists of the spiraling race-slides “Cyclone”, “Typhoon” and “Supercell”. Swirl through a champagne bowl funnel in Supercell℠, part of The Perfect Storm℠, the boldest waterslides at sea. A favorite of adult guests is the adults-only, two-deck Solarium, a gorgeous, peaceful area in the forward part of the ship.
AquaTheater Suite
This cruise ship is bustling and full of families – but there’s always a spot or two for those seeking to get some R&R away from the kids, including the Oasis of the Seas adult-only pool and sun deck and a pleasant spa. This means that Utopia of the Seas will be the first ship in the class not to hold the title of the world's largest cruise ship when entering service in 2024. In addition to the various cuisines, the ambiance ranges from casual to chic and elegant. The 28 loft suites high on deck 17 are a first for the cruise industry, with two levels and floor-to-ceiling windows. Popular are the AquaTheater Suites, with huge balconies that overlook the Boardwalk, AquaTheater, and the sea.Families can bunk together in the numerous types of family cabins and suites, which sleep up to six. The Oasis of the Seas is one of a class of Royal Caribbean International cruise ships which are the world's largest passenger ships.
Bedroom AquaTheater Suite
Rookies can get a crash course in popular casino games before the casino opens each day, or you can get straight to the action, playing roulette, the slots, dice, blackjack and more. At the ship’s spa, you can find amazing classic spa treatments, from massages and wraps to facials and manicures, but you can also find medi-spa treatments for more advanced beauty needs. If you just need a quick fix, then pedicures, hair styles, cuts and teeth whitening are all an option, too. No matter what you’re in the mood for, you can likely find it on Oasis of the Seas.
Royal Caribbean offers several specialty dining packages, including an Unlimited Dining Package, which allow you to dine at several specialty restaurants for a lower cost than booking each restaurant individually. In 2019, Oasis of the Seas received a $165 million amplification to modernize the ship. New dining and bar venues, a revamped pool deck, updated kids programming, and new activities were just some of the changes made to the ship. Due to the amplification, Oasis of the Seas feels new and refreshed despite being almost 14 years old.
Beyond the first of its class, Oasis of the Seas® was also the ship that launched a vacation revolution. The spa features a Thermal Suite with heated tile lounges and steam rooms and 29 treatment rooms. Teens and kids even have a spa area of their own.The Fitness Center has 158 fitness machines, including cardio and resistance equipment. Guests can work out alone or join in on one of several classes such as spinning, kickboxing, Pilates, or yoga.The Vitality Cafe offers healthy snacks, sandwiches, wraps, fruit, and smoothies.
This is a 4K ultra-HD screen (no TV functions) that receives real-time/live video streaming from the cruise ship's outside cameras. This means you will enjoy "balcony views" without paying for the higher-priced cabins with step-out balconies. Family Interior cabins have each 2 lower single beds (convertible to Royal King-size), separate bedroom (with 2 Pullman beds/lower-upper bunk beds), 1 double sofabed. Boardwalk-Central Park Balcony cabins are all with step-out verandahs, while Boardwalk-Central Park View cabins have a Picture Window. These (also unique for Royal Caribbean Oasis-class ships) cruise accommodations are located above the "Boardwalk Neighborhood" and the "Central Park Neighborhood" (overlooking the ship's interior) so noise could be an issue. Be advised that all Central Park and Boardwalk balcony cabins have "interior balconies".
Loft Suite's lower level houses the living room and dining room (dry bar, bath with shower), while the upper level houses the bedroom and the full-bath (with bathtub). Some Loft Suites are accessible (with an elevator), and some are connecting. The ship is one of the largest ships in the world, with plenty of space to offer things to do onboard for guests of all ages.
Boardwalk and Central Park Interior Cabins
Category "Interior Accessible" cabins are larger-sized (260 ft2 / 24 m2) and with 2 twin beds (convertible to King-size double bed) plus 1 double sofabed. The other Interior quad cabins are fitted with 2 twin beds (convertible) plus 2 Pullman beds (foldable). Interior cabins located aft on decks 7 through 14 are smaller-sized (150 ft2 / 14 m2). Each of the Boardwalk or Central Park cabins as amenities features 2 twin beds (convertible to double), sitting area (sofa or double sofabed for 3rd/4th person), private bathroom, large window (overlooking the Boardwalk or the Central Park / ship interior areas). Category "Promenade View Interior" are also unique cabins available on the largest RCI cruise ships.
Just like dining, there are plenty of options when it comes to grabbing a drink onboard Oasis of the Seas. Everything from wine bars to pool bars–and even a bar run by robot bartenders–can be found onboard. There is an abundance of food to enjoy on any Royal Caribbean cruise ship, but especially on an Oasis Class ship. Oasis of the Seas boasts over 20 locations to grab a bite to eat, from burritos at El Loco Fresh to upscale dining at 150 Central Park. A daily stateroom attendant dedicated to making sure your stay is spectacular.
Central Park's huge garden features multi-deck-high metal columns and green walls (covered in vines and ferns), several pathways, recordings of various species (birds, insects, animals) played, live seasonal plants (flowers, shrubs, trees). Signage boards provide detailed info on all Central Park's trees and plants. A total of 24 elevators (12x forward + 12x aft) provide access all the way to deck 16, while decks 17 and 18 are accessed by 6 lifts. This unique "floating island" has a foliage-filled Central Park (with plants), 2-deck Loft Suites, 20 dining options. Level up your lounge game at Coco Beach Club®, an exclusive retreat where you can sip cocktails while drifting along the disappearing edge of the infinity pool. Or experience a bit of Bora Bora with the first Overwater Cabanas in The Bahamas.
The former gives you spa-inspired amenities, while the latter gives you a view of all the action. Otherwise, interior staterooms are a little on the bland side, with blasé décor that’s suitable and functional, but nothing exciting. First, there were some extensive upgrades made in 2014, in Rotterdam, with work including an engine replacement, hull painting and carpet replacement. The biggest changes included splitting the main dining room into three main dining rooms, as well as adding a few new, smaller restaurants.
Oasis has been the most anticipated newbuild since Cunard's Queen Mary 2. Her innovations, such as the first-ever Boardwalk and Central Park at sea, are already legendary. Innovations on Oasis of the Seas are, by no means, limited to passenger-friendly advances. Royal Caribbean also introduced a number of new technical and environmental tools which allow the cruise to be more efficient and eco-responsible.
Oasis of the Seas' Solarium, Splashaway Bay kid' splash zone, the sports court, three swimming pools and a selection of bars and restaurant are also located on the ship's buzzy Deck 15. Cruise Critic member carlojj shares a photos of Oasis of the Seas' top-deck Oasis Dunes mini-golf course. Royal Caribbean’s ever-popular Oasis of the Seas -- the line’s second Oasis-class ship -- debuted in 2009 and continues to dazzle cruisers with its impressive lineup of entertainment, restaurants and bars. Oceanview and balcony cabins can provide an excellent value, as many guests prefer being able to see the ocean from their stateroom. Plus, having a private balcony can be a peaceful haven away from the hustle and bustle found elsewhere onboard, so this stateroom category is among the most popular on Oasis of the Seas. If you are interested in dining at specialty restaurants on Oasis of the Seas, you may want to consider purchasing a dining package.

Outside of signature activities, there are even more activities listed each day in the Cruise Compass, such as family scavenger hunts, kids karaoke, family craft time at Adventure Ocean, etc. In addition to the main pool deck, which is accessible to guests of all ages, is an adults-only Solarium for guests 16 and older. In addition, there are three waterslides on the pool deck available to guests of all ages. First are the Perfect Storm waterslides, a pair of twisting and turning racing slides. The other slide, the Supercell, first sends riders twisting and turning downhill before being emptied into a bowl, where they spin several times in a circle before sliding into a hole at the bottom.
Aft on each side there are groups of hump balcony rooms considered a premium location. Since decks there are wider, these cabins have larger verandas and feature great views (side to side and also when looking down). Category "Family Interior" cabins have each 2 lower single beds (twins convertible to a double bed/Queen-size), separate bedroom (with 2 Pullman beds/lower-upper bunk beds), 1 double sofabed. Each of the balcony cabins as amenities features Royal King (double) bed, private veranda, sitting area (sofa or double sofabed for 3rd/4th person), private bathroom. While, today, Oasis of the Seas and its sister ships have been surpassed in both size and innovation, they’re still worth considering for an upcoming cruise, for many reasons.
