Cabin 10286 · Oasis of the Seas

Cabin 10286 is an Ocean View Balcony on Oasis of the Seas, 182 to 198 square feet plus a private balcony of 42 to 55 square feet.

Cabin 10286 is an Ocean View Balcony on Deck 10 of Oasis of the Seas. You are aft of midship. You are far enough from the middle to notice a swell, but nowhere near the worst of it. We score it 7 out of 10 for steadiness.

The nearest is the aft lift bank, port, and that is 10 cabins away down the corridor. That buys you quiet. It also means a proper walk with your bags on embarkation day. Oasis of the Seas carries four lift banks on most decks, forward and aft, port and starboard. Each is a glass fronted lobby with call buttons, deck buttons and a landing that doubles as a meeting point. The forward banks serve the theatre and the suite decks, the aft banks serve the dining rooms and the Boardwalk. Worth knowing: the cars themselves are quiet. The lobby is not. What a cabin beside a lift bank actually hears is people waiting, talking and calling to each other, and it peaks at dinner sittings and again after the late show. Two or three cabins along the corridor is. Quiet scores 4 out of 10. There is enough going on nearby that a light sleeper should think about it. For getting about, 7 out of 10.

Of the 177 cabin positions on Deck 10, this is the 122nd from forward.

The Ocean View Balcony grade runs 182-198 square feet. The balcony adds another 42-55 on top of that. A balcony buys you outside space of your own and, on sea days, somewhere to sit that is not the pool deck. It is the step up most people make, and the one they find hardest to give up again.

Worth knowing before you book: Crown and Anchor pays one cruise point a night at this grade. A suite pays two, and so does sailing solo on a double occupancy fare, which is the cheaper of the two routes if you are travelling alone anyway.

Against the rest of the ship it is noisier than three quarters of the 2,836 cabins on board. It is a poor fit for anyone who wakes when a door closes.
