Oasis of the Seas — Windows

[Alan Tate]

I am on the Oasis of the Seas in the Western Mediterranean. First Royal Caribbean cruise but I’ve been on Disney and Norwegian. I like the ship and it’s been a good experience, but why is it designed like a Vegas casino?  I like to sit in an air-conditioned lounge or bar and watch the scenery go by. Not on this ship. Except for the Windjammer buffet, I have not found an indoor area with seating and windows. All of the bars have no windows at all. A bit disappointing for me.

All ships have pros and cons.  A frequently noted con on Oasis class is lack of access to the see the sea.

The suite lounge on deck 17 is one of few bars or lounges that provide a sea view but you must be staying in a full suite to gain access.

The smaller ships, like Vision Class have places to sit, have a drink, and watch the sea roll by.  These range from Decks 4/5/6 to the Solarium.

On Oasis/Harmony, there are lounge chairs on deck 5, but you need to avoid the joggers/walkers as you navigate to the chairs.

Have you found any spots in the Solarium on the Oasis?  I recall some that are sheltered.
