Which Cabin Category - straw poll ..

[foxland]

My wife and I are about to book on the Oasis [March 2011] BUT we cannot decide which cabin category to take .. outside ?, inside?, Broadwalk?, Central Park? ..

 

What's your experience?

 

What do you recommend?

[Dphipps2]

We picked the CP balcony. We've done the inside, ouside and balcony on other ships. This may be our only opportunity to do the CP or BW balconies.

[Rock1t]

Past 3 cruises we have had an ocean balcony and a suite once, for our Oasis cruise we went with a CP balcony as well!

I'm not exactly sure on your price range, but I'd recommend the grand suite. I just had it on the Voyager, and the suite perks are definitely worth it. If you want something a little cheaper, than I'd get something with at least an ocean-view balcony. Hope it helps! :D

I would choose an ocean view you can't beat that view first thing in the morning and the last thing at night.

BW balcony, last one on deck 10, perfect views of the theatre, the water and the boardwalk.

[Gypsywanab]

On May 1st sailing. Outside balcony and will have the same next year on Allure. Insides have nice views of park, boardwalk, etc. but no privacy. Keep drapes closed if you don't want public viewing and would the heavy lady who came out on her balcony in the short white nightgown while we were having breakfast at Johnny Rocket's on the Boardwalk please put a robe on next time.

prefer the privacy and view of the ocean....aqua theater suite would be nice too :)

We sailed the Oasis 4/17 in cabin 11690, a D7, aft, starboard side. It was wonderful! On Decks 11 and 12 there are large public balconies on the starboard and ports sides aft. Very few people venture there during the week, but they are the BEST place to watch the Aquatheater shows because you are 6 or 7 decks above, overlooking the Aquatheater. This is also a great place for sail-aways and just enjoying drinks with friends. Personnaly I was not too impressed with the Boardwalk or Central Park balcony cabins althought they are unique. They face other cabins just across from you and you feel like you are on display, IMHO. Aft suites are great (if you can afford them) and any othe suite would be sweet as well. Inside cabins are the least expensive and great if you like to sleep late (they are like tombs...). But for the price of a crusie you cannot beat them.

 

Whatever you decide, the Oasis is magnificent! You will be amazed at this ship.

Hahaha! We have an ocean view and I like to go out in the morning in my pj's......didn't think about that w/ the interior balconies!! That had to be quite a view ;)

Two words "sleepy PANTS" ;)

[sandgrace]

I'm with the others oceanview balcony can't be beat, having coffee in the morning in your pjs overlooking the ocean...aaahhhhhhh just love it! :)

[franl24fan]

Since I sail as a single I only choose to pay for an inside cabin. It was more than adequate and there were so many places to sit out on deck I was happy.

 

One thing I'd mention about the central park and boardwalk balconies, you have no privacy. People can look right down on your balcony from other parts of the ship, as well as up from the decks. So if you expect to be out there in your jammies, or want to join the balcony club, I'd go for an outside oceanview balcony.

[Puffinater]

We went with the ocean view balcony. We want to be able to sit on the balcony in the morning with a cup of coffee and sea the ocean.

[seeship]

We have had other rooms but always go back to the inside cabin. We both like it VERY dark when we sleep. They are small but we are light packers. One BIG help, DH always puts the small glass topped coffee table in the closet. It gives us lots more room. Suitcases go under the bed. I am not sure what type of table will be on the OASIS but if it will fit in the closet he will put it there. We never eat in our room. Waiting for Sept!!

[Baseballkurt]

We are booked on an OB for the first time. We have always had just an outside view. We thought about a BB or a CPB but we wanted the privacy. The kids had an inside and they liked it, but I like to see the sun rise and set if possible.

[mtebor]

inside for a family of 3. I would love to do outside but that is out of our budget
