Honest Review of Wonder of the Sea The ship is huge…. Just added more cabins, more overprice Dining options, less venues for activities. Compare to other Oasis class, this has worst layout and less activities resulted boring cruise experience. Super difficult to find a seat at all venue. Music Hall and Bolero is smaller, while Karaoke and photo shop are super large. Service was excellent throughout the ship, including Dining Room and Windjammer. Excellent services provided by Erwin Nelson - Pool bartender, Noor of Windjammer, Fernando of Windjammer greeter, Ping at the Diamond Lounge, Juluis of Chef in kitchen and Anderson Perego of the pool towel station. The Captain is very friendly. The Beverage and Hotel Director Erfin is too pride to talk/listen and be friend with passingers. Dining Room for lunch and Dinner: Due to cost cutting, poor food quality. Very limited selection, limited to 3 appetizers and 3 main dishes. Menu is 12 years old and boring. Do not expect to have lobster until the 13th days. Pork Chops are always over cooked and very tough. However, service is wonderful, but need minor adjustment as to coordination and cooperation. Diamond Lounge: Usually there is a line for coffee. The 2 coffee machines break down daily and often. One machine has been leaking for 8 days. Also, we need more than 2 coffee machines for so many members. Mr. Ping of Beverage Dept. is very good in cleaning and reset the coffee machines constantly. Music: Third class. Bands at the Top Stage of Royal Promenade is a total waste. People just walk by and treat them as random noise that no one enjoy. Only 1 out of 50 people takes time to look up at the top stage noise makers. Boleros: Only place to dance on the ship. The LATIN band only plays the Mexican Pechanga and nothing else. At our request, they start playing Latin songs Cha Cha, Rumba, etc. at the end of the cruise. Not a true Latin band. The dance floor only fits 10 couples dancing for 7000 passengers. Sorrento: Separation of pizza from the drink and snack counter created confusion, and people flow problem. Sport Activities: Great. Zip line is super short. Production show: Wonderful and enjoyable. Enforcers 2 is fantastic. No more Broadway shows. Overall: Boring cruise unless you are super active in sport.

What is your favorite new addition to Wonder of the Seas?
The fact I’m going on it in less than a year
Thanks for pointing out the differences! It's really helpful. Now I won't have to compare deck plans with other Oasis-class ships. 😊
Glad it was helpful!
That suite area is really pretty (I say as someone who doesn’t stay in suites).
Same here. Looks great, but not sure it is worth the additional costs for us.
Great tour! Thank you!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it.

😂😮this is a brutal honest review!!!
Which ship would you recommend as a better experience?
Great tour. We have reservations for Giovanni's.
Great! We really enjoyed Givoanni's and the wine bar!
A smoke freecasino
Very nice
Can you smoke cigars in the Royal Casino on wonder of the seas?
Do you have to make reservations to visit the Wine Bar?
You don’t need reservations. It is first come, first serve and it’s typically not crowded. Happy cruising.
The suite sundeck chairs and bar area get covered in oil and diesel soot all the time. Its disgusting, dont go up there.
