The new objects look nice. They're not my cup of tea however, so I wouldn't have much interest in it personally unless there are gameplay items in it.
My guess is that's going to be about a third of the kits. I suspect the first quarter of kits was a preview to the whole kit concept - 3 a quarter, approximately one a month, one being an activity/interaction object, one a CAS set and one a build buy set. It actually could go over really well this way, I know in the Sims 3 store I loved getting build/buy sets and premium object sets but was less enthusiastic about CAS sets. Combining them all into bigger sets was sometimes a disappointment due to how much CAS there was.
It's kind of sad that I have to point out that anything I say is only just my opinion and may be a different one from someone else.

One of Simgurus (don't remember which one, sorry!) said that they won't replace stuff packs.
This has just came to me when thinking about this new Courtyard Oasis KP. Bare with me on this because this may not seem connected at first. But I will connect them later on. Sunbathing is an outdoor activity. In the past I had built several homes with a walled in courtyard with no roof in them. But the game still treated the open air courtyard as if it were one of the rooms inside the house because of the grid over the courtyard. What I am wondering is will I be able to have my sims sunbathe in this courtyard oasis with Courtyard Oasis installed?
If there was no ceiling, and no second floor, then the room should have been treated as "outside" Though sometimes you have to force this by leaving one wall incomplete and then moving a wall piece into place.
That's about the only time that the game didn't consider my past courtyard builds as one of the rooms of the house, is when I leave one wall incomplete. When I do that, when I leave one wall of the courtyard incomplete then the game doesn't put a grid over the courtyard.

game should consider anywhere without a roof/ceiling outside space cause ive made deathful vampire sun chamber like that on basement level 2 and vlad would roast if left in one and it gets snow and all
but also i have not tried sunbathing on lounge chair cause well... vampires can't

Would you think that the game would consider that any space that has no roof or ceiling would be an outdoor space. But the game or at least my game doesn't if there's a building grid over that space. I can't even place an outdoor fountain in there if there's a grid over that area. The game will just tell me that the outdoor fountain can not be placed under another object or roofs or ceiling even though I haven't placed a roof or ceiling there.
My nerd self built a "Greenburg Grocers" in my game. I was very frustrated that the second floor (of a three-floord lot, though only 1/4 of "floor two" is closed in" aka "living space" and the rest is all pillars and fences.) gave poor Knox a negative emote from being "cooped up". I really thought this would work. Disappointing that while Knox is working in his second-level, but wide open crafting area, he gets a negative emote. Super lame. I don't have Seasons yet, but I built this greenhouse/grocers with the intent to buy Seasons...I'm just hoping it counts as "Inside" in that case or I'll be super frustrated.

Again, there was a grid over that area and the game treats it as a roof or ceiling. Even just placing fences and columns is still putting up a wall according to the game.

Yes, I figured that out. lol Rather than random complaining, I was actually trying to tell that poor person who posted before me that I understood his frustration. Anyway...I hope he sees he's not alone even though I'll probably get attacked by a few more people after you. 🤣

Well, at least Olive had no problem tanning in the death pit
many grids are involved and its a room.
sooo idk don't see why courtyard would not work?
only blocking thing was when its not sunny weather u obviously cannot tan be it death pit or not
could try to find fix for whoever courtyards are not working for though
so if you have builds like that put on gallery and link for me
I love the banana plant and the wall lights. I love the floor decal. Would be nice if they add also fountain or pool trim to match the new wall and floor swatches.
I think it's amazing that we get some more representation, even though I'm a little unsure on how I feel about the kits - for me, this could as well have been a great stuff pack (in the same way as Tiny Living). Unfortunately, I, as well, have a tough time seeing which world this will fit into, except Oasis Spring. Otherwise, I'm looking forward to try challenging myself with some new builds that are different from what I usually make. :)

Another kit I will skip. Thanks for the money I save, EA!

Isn't that a pool trim that I saw then?
I think that's a platform with a new platform side pattern, or else a wall pattern on low walls.

Let's hope that it's both. My attempt at a platform blue tiled trim with a pool though had a white line underneath on the water side so I hope they do it better with this one.

Could be a pool or fountain trim, or it could be just a new fountain. I think it looks a bit high to be pool trim and the decal pattern goes neatly around it, so I'm guessing it's a standalone fountain object.

Not yet that we've seen, but apparently the Sims team are doing a big announcement of their 'summer plans' on May 17th.

Are you sure it comes with a hot tub? I did notice a fountain:
No, it doesn't...
Where do you see a hottub?
Don't spread false information, please.
Reality is: We don't know anything about a hottub, it's just your hope/guess.
