Oasis of the Seas Review, Part 2
OK -- so we've boarded the Oasis of the Seas and got settled into our balcony stateroom -- now it's time to explore! We started with a tour of some of the fancy staterooms, such as a Royal Loft Suite, Crown Loft Suite, Aqua Theater Suite, and Royal Family Suite. Then we viewed a Boardwalk View Stateroom with Balcony, a Central Park View Stateroom, and Family Interior Stateroom.
