Ally 2 Posted January 30, 2020 Report Share Posted January 30, 2020 Hello all! My husband and I are trying to decide between the oasis and navigator, both being 4 nights in may. It will be our first time leaving our boys so its just us and it’s also my husbands first time cruising (& I haven’t gone in a decade and not with Royal) So I’ve done lots of research and the main things I can’t decide between is the navigator isn’t as big but is going to Cocoa Cay and Nassau and 1 sea day, while the Oasis is the oasis, but is only going to Cozumel with 2 sea days. Would love experienced royal fans to help and give any and all advice! thank you in advance! Alyssa Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WAAAYTOOO 12,212 Posted January 30, 2020 Report Share Posted January 30, 2020 Hey, Ally - I will always choose Oasis but that’s just me. 1 port of call and 3 sea days (counting day 1 as a sea day) sounds like heaven to me but some people prefer more ports. I think you would find that the extra sea days give you more opportunity to explore the ship, which is really the best part of cruising on a Oasis. Nothing wrong with NAV ! I just prefer the big ships. MichelleB1234, RWDW1204 and Ally 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MichelleB1234 32 Posted January 30, 2020 Report Share Posted January 30, 2020 I agree with Way too. Enjoy the sea days on the Oasis plus I love Cozumel. Ally 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lovetocruise2002 11,681 Posted January 30, 2020 Report Share Posted January 30, 2020 If it's your first Royal cruise, I would pick Oasis hands down. It offers way more than Navigator in terms of dining, entertainment and overall venues. We are not big beach people, so Coco Cay doesn't really appeal to us that much. I suppose if you were big on beaches, that might sway you. Ally and RWDW1204 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Matt 12,943 Posted January 31, 2020 Report Share Posted January 31, 2020 I'd definitely lean towards Oasis. Ally 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Indy was nice but we really liked the Oasis class, and that is why my next 2 are on The Oasis of the Seas! WAAAYTOOO, Lovetocruise2002 and Ally 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RWDW1204 521 Posted January 31, 2020 Report Share Posted January 31, 2020 Have done Navigator and all Oasis class ships. We both like the bigger ones for everything to do on-board. My wife also liked Navigator for the ports we went to. Like @WAAAYTOOO and @Lovetocruise2002 have said, it's about what you're looking for. Ally 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fairlynew 414 Posted January 31, 2020 Report Share Posted January 31, 2020 I have sailed Navigator and Harmony. I loved them both. I prefer the Oasis class, but I did not feel like 7 days was near enough to experience the Oasis class. For 4 days, you may enjoy Navigator's size more. If you like it, Oasis would be a great family ship-you can bring the kids along for 7 days later. Ally 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ally 2 Posted January 31, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2020 Thank you all so much for your replies! You’ve all said basically what I needed to hear! I really appreciate it! Can’t wait to let you know after booking. PRebecca and WAAAYTOOO 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
