Vacations and holidays should be exciting, fun, and memorable travel experiences. So why not enjoy your next vacation or holiday on board Royal Caribbean Cruise Line’s Oasis Of The Seas, the world’s most modern, super-sized resort hotel cruise ship, and cruise to the enticing warm waters and white sandy beaches of the beautiful, sun-drenched, Caribbean Islands?

This majestic, gigantic cruise ship has been brilliantly laid out to increase the passengers’ enjoyment and cruising experience. It has sixteen decks and 2,700 staterooms which vary in size from inside staterooms of about 150 square feet to the gigantic Royal Loft Suites that are over 1,500 square feet with big balconies of about 800 square feet. Royal Caribbean Cruises leads all the other cruise lines in the creation of this state-of-the-art cruise ship that can accommodate over 5,000 passengers.

The Oasis Of The Seas is a virtual miniature city with several “neighborhoods” running along the center of her outside deck with cleverly situated balconied staterooms or cabins overlooking the bustling activities of the passengers below.

These neighborhoods, or themed zones are, Boardwalk, Central Park, Entertainment Place, the Royal Promenade, the Pool and Sports Zone, Vitality at Sea Spa and Fitness Center, and, last but not least, the Youth Zone.

Here is a brief rundown of what you will find in each of these seven neighborhoods.

To start with, the Royal Promenade, is where cruise passengers board the ship. It is a virtual mall-at-sea and has a variety of retail shops, cafes, and bars.

Stroll along the Boardwalk that features a beautiful handcrafted carousel and experience the atmosphere of Coney Island. At the end of the Boardwalk, at the stern of this amazing cruise ship, you will find a huge swimming pool where throughout the day passengers can swim, relax on deckchairs, sunbathe, or even take scuba diving lessons. By night the pool is magically transformed into the AquaTheater which features a spectacular water show where numerous nozzles spout pressurized water high above the pool. These turbocharged towering jets of water are synchronized with a music and light display.

To top it all off, an innovative high-wire Zip Line stretches across the Boardwalk. Passengers that book strategically located state rooms or who are strolling in this area can watch their thrill-seeking, daredevil fellow passengers soar along this exciting high wire.

Central Park is full of lush greenery including flowers, shrubs, and trees. Gardeners maintain this park area and rotate the many flowers and plants to reflect the appropriate season. In this large neighborhood area you will find a number of fine, themed restaurants and bars to relax and dine on deliciously prepared food as well as fine wine, beer, or spirits.

The Entertainment Place features the thousand plus seat Opal Theater, a dance discotheque ballroom, jazz lounge, nightclub, comedy club, and of course the largest cruise casino in the world.

The grand Vitality Spa and Fitness Center is the largest spa on the seven seas. It will appeal to all passengers that want to relax, unwind, and be pampered in the lap of luxury.

The Pool And Sports Zone, located above the Boardwalk, features two surf creating FlowRiders, a pool dedicated to different water sports, a full-size basketball court, a mini golf course, two huge rock climbing walls, and the famous Zip Line.

And last but not least there is the Youth Zone where experienced personnel cater to babies and toddlers so their parents can have time to themselves on board the ship. For the older kids and teens there are numerous fun things to occupy their time.

If you have never been on a luxury cruise before, maybe now is the time. The Oasis Of The Seas has something that will appeal to almost everyone. You’ll be very impressed.
