We were in the mood for another cruise and decided to try the biggest ship out there, Allure of the Seas.
this was our fourth cruise and second on RCL. We had not been to the Eastern Caribbean so decided to try this itinerary but were most interested in the ship.
We arrived the day before and stayed at the FL Hilton on the Beach, very nice hotel but in crowded area. We enjoyed the hotel and ocean views. Easily got hotel transportation to port next morning and got there around 11:30. As suite passengers we waited a short time in a lounge area before embarking. Check in was quick and easy.
We had a GS grand suite on deck 11 . Proximity to concierge lounge very convenient. Spacious and clean, nice balcony and lots of storage, Air conditioning worked well we were always comfortable. Bathroom spacious. Only negative was the step in tub to shower-alittle dicey for us older folks but had good grab bars to use.
