It will be interesting to see how the new Wonder of the Seas will be designed & laid out with that new Suite Neighborhood. I think Royal is going for the "ship within a ship" concept (like NCL's The Haven & MSC's The Yacht Club).

Love those mostly private restrooms up there.  And there is a round shower that's good for a quick cooldown when needed.

On the Oasis, there is the suite sun deck forward...accessible to Sky and Star suites along with Pinnacle members. There are private cabana-type enclosures on the Suite deck forward overlooking the Solarium...first come, first serve. There is no hot tub...but there is a full bar! Lots of loungers and little clamshell daybeds. Towels are included. Plus, restrooms!

Our experience is that the cabin attendant in a suite will bring the pool towels to you if requested (and replace them if they are left with the other soiled towels in the bathroom).

Our feelings exactly.

I’m onboard the Allure so I’m sorry I didn’t get to read through all the responses, but wanted to note that on the crown loft suites some of the upstairs bathroom have a large shower and others have instead a large tub that doubles as a shower. A great suite, near the CK (I still prefer an OS but the CL is a close second). 😊

Yes, deck 17 forward. Access is via stairs on 16.
Think Harmony and Symphony have a hot tub. Don't think Oasis and Allure have anything.
Wonder will have an area on 17 where the suites all are.

I just upgraded my balcony stateroom to a Crown Loft Suite, as a solo cruiser! Am I crazy? It's on the Symphony of the Seas (Feb 5-12, 2022).

Thanks @BrianB. Sounds great! I guess the CLS is actually larger (sq ft) than the 1 BR Grand Suite (and priced higher). But, that CLS just seems to be a perfect fit for a solo cruiser (as well as for couples).
I didn't know Oasis was going back to NJ. I was just on her out of Miami. My 1st Oasis-class. I loved it! But, we were only at 50% passenger capacity so the ship didn't feel crowded at all.

I don't know about feeling right...it was great! Big, airy and lots of room. Being a solo, I didn't check the sofa bed configuration. But, the sofa is perfect for lounging! The bed upstairs is enormous and extremely comfortable...not two beds put together. Really enjoyed the CL Suite and booked it again for when the Oasis is back in NJ.

Thanks for sharing your solo experiences in the CLS (on 2 B2 B2B's no less!). You sound like an avid solo cruiser (like me; I have solo cruises booked into 2023).

No, you are smart! That’s going to really define your awesome cruise on Symphony. 

I cruise solo and did a Crown Loft on the Oasis b2b in Sept…..and then another CL b2b in October. It’s not crazy to treat yourself to the suite life. Enjoy it!😁
