JDPCruisers Posted October 10, 2022 #1 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Will be our first time on Oasis class in Feb on the Allure and interested in any pro's and con's on an Owners Suite and the ship in general, such as service, food, condition, officer visibility, etc. Appreciate any feedback appreciated!

Rare island lady Posted October 10, 2022 #5 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Con: Doorbell. Too many "darling snowflakes" running wild all night long down the hallways thinking it was just soooo funny to ring your doorbell in the middle of the night. 😠 We ended up having ours disconnected. Pros: Love the "extra toilet". 😉 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sj755 Posted October 10, 2022 #6 Share Posted October 10, 2022 We sailed in May on Allure and stayed in OS 14640. Everything was perfect. Enjoy your cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My brother never passes it without ringing it, and he gets up way earlier than I do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George C Posted October 10, 2022 #8 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Owners suite is really nice , big plus for us is separate tub and shower , dining table , huge balcony, standard suite perks , CK, concierge, happy hour with unlimited drinks normally 5 to 8. Priority disembarkation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poocher Posted October 10, 2022 #9 Share Posted October 10, 2022 OMG the OS on Harmony spoiled the you know what out of us. How do I get hubby back in a regular suite now?? And we had ZERO doorbell rings, not even one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I enjoyed our owners suite, we are really happy with grand suite, plenty of room for two and same perks. But wouldn’t go back to anything less than a grand suite.

poocher Posted October 10, 2022 #11 Share Posted October 10, 2022 We had 4 in ours and plenty of room for everyone. It was a lift & shift from a 3/21 cruise on Rhapsody, price protected so we paid less that half price for it. It was heavenly! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDPCruisers Posted October 10, 2022 Author #12 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Thanks for the responses. We've stayed in Owners, Grands, a Junior once and the Royal Suite once. Looking forward to an Owners on Oasis class. As far as "officer visibility", have there been Captains receptions, Officer meet and greet, etc? We got off Celebrity Infinity on Sat (Oct 😎 ) and had a number of interactions with the Captain and his Officers, particularly in Michael's Club (Suite Lounge equivalent). I know its personal preference, but any particular recommendations for food venues? Choices seem very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least that's my guess 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted October 10, 2022 #16 Share Posted October 10, 2022 RC had suite receptions prior to covid. They haven't come back yet. Depending on the captain, he may come up and schmooze a bit in the suite lounge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruiselvr04 Posted October 10, 2022 #17 Share Posted October 10, 2022 The DH likes to ring the doorbell every time we open the door just because he can. Lol. My favorite is the separate tub and shower. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would rather have a larger walk in shower. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OMG...I have to deal with "Scotty Beam me up" canister shower on the WC...with shower curtain. Yuck!! Yup, would rather have that tiny OS shower indeed. 😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mac_tlc Posted October 10, 2022 #21 Share Posted October 10, 2022 About the only “con” we noticed is that it is not on deck 17, as compared to a Crown Loft. We never used the tub ( or the bidet) and would rather that space be dedicated to a larger shower— think Oasis/Allure Crown Loft. We would do it again in a heartbeat, depending on price differential to a CL. mac_tlc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruiszBug Posted October 10, 2022 #25 Share Posted October 10, 2022 It's my favorite cabin type to date. Sailed on Oasis Deck 11. It was fantastic! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
