Allure of the Seas Review
Rating by category
Additional details
We usually travel stateside in our RV, but when we were invited by our daughters, we accepted. What a great decision. The ship is gorgeous and so clean. Our balcony cabins were exceptional. Everything we ate was wonderful. We participated in as much as we could, but there is just so much to do, we felt like we missed out on so much! We saw Mama Mia, OceanAria, Blue Planet and the Comedy Show- all were fantastic. We ate at specialty restaurants Giovanni's (don't miss this place!) and Izumi (impressive!). We also tried almost every other complimentary eatery with no dissapointments. And we can't say enough about all of the staff, every single one of them.
We talked to quite a few other passengers and they all had good things to say, in varying degrees of course. Some said the ship was too big, too crowded or too many rude passengers. Maybe so, but our experience was good.
We went to all three ports- shopping, City Tour, Rum and Chocolate in Nassau; shopping and Magen's Bay on St Thomas; Orient Beach Express on Sint Maarten.
Cabin Review
Superior Ocean View Stateroom with Balcony
Met our expectations on size, exceeded them on cleanliness and attentiveness of the housekeeping staff.The balcony was a good size, we're glad we chose it.
Port Reviews
Fort Lauderdale (Port Everglades)
Ft Lauderdale has everything you need and want. If you can, drive down to South Beach Miami to check out the art deco bldgs, and then to a beach for a swim and some great shelling.
Nassau
Our licensed taxi driver took us to see things off-the-beaten-path. We told him we wanted to learn about the island and the culture and that's what he delivered. We had a great time.
St. Thomas
A little shopping, drive to Mountain Top, a couple of hours at Magen's Bay. A great time!
