Never experienced this kind of hospitality. Ever. All of the crew. Loved meeting every one of you! Very clean ship. Didn’t even see a cobweb. Statesman for my room was the best. He made my stay! Thank you sooooo much Elmer Fudd (really, that is his name)!!! You are amazing and we love you in Virginia! The most relaxed I have been in many years. Great room and slept like a baby. The only negative ...
Food was some of the best in over 25 cruises. Ships entertainment was a ten. All the shows of course had to be picked and reservation made in advance. Terminal was easy in and out. No complaints absolutely perfect highly recommended. Adult pools and places were so quiet and alot of variety of places to find to be alone especially if you like to sunbath and read. Best part was staffing was the most ...
Why this cruise? Took place over mid-winter break for the kids from school, and we were able to take advantage of the Kids Sail Free promotion, making the cost of the cruise, and the 2 Bedroom Aqua Theater suite (Star class!), very doable.
Check-in and boarding was insanely easy and quick. Arrived at the port about 10:30 and boarding had already begin. Looking around the terminal, there were ...
This was my first cruise. I absolutely loved it and cannot wait to go again. The amenities were amazing. And the service was unmatched. Every area of the ship was spotless. And everyone was helpful and friendly. The lovely woman who kept our room spotless and made a new animal shape out of towels each day was fabulous! Her name was Sue and I cannot say enough about her service! The shows on ...
This was our second cruise on RCCL and the Allure, having sailed in December 2023 as well. We had another great cruise on Allure.
First, however, I will say that there were WAY too many kids for our liking. It's a lesson to us to stay away from booking holiday weekends again. We still had a very nice time, but I know many adults were annoyed at the hot tubs and adult only area, not to ...
I was hesitant to board this ship as it was not and has not been amplified. But the ship is in tip top shape and couldn't even tell it was an old ship. The layout and design was beautiful. The artwork was very nice and different. The Broadway show was amazing and funny and up beat. People got up from their chairs singing and dancing. I also enjoyed this ship using/converting the Royal Thearte into ...
This was our first time on RCL having sailed Carnival, NCL, and Holland pre-Covid. From the easy embarkation and debarkation and everything in between, we had a wonderful time. The staff was so nice. The food was great and we really enjoyed the Aqua and Comedy shows. We booked ahead, but saw most everyone in the stand by lines get in. Surprised to see other reviewers commenting on nothing to ...
We cruised on the Carnival Magic in February and I wound up getting very sick and recuperating at home for almost the whole month of March. I took this as a make up cruise and, in spite of two stormy days, missing the Aqua show, missing CocoCay, and our visit to Nassau, we enjoyed ourselves. We had friendly, helpful waiters and a good room steward. Mama Mia, the Blue Planet, and Blades (the ...
My first oasis class cruise !!
This was my first oasis class cruise as a solo traveler.
+ Pros
The Royal Promenade had the feeling of being at Disney Springs.
The Central Park was like a Botanical Garden.
The Board Walk had a Northeast ( Jersey Shore ) look to it.
The Aqua Show was Amazing !!
The Solarium ( 18+ Pool Area ) had a great view overlooking the front of the ship, ...
From the time I parked my car until I was onboard took no more than 30 minutes! Most of that time was spent getting from the car to the terminal. This really was the best boarding I have ever experienced (this is our 14th cruise).
I must admit that the activity I look forward to the most, is eating. I am happy to report we were not disappointed by anyplace we ate, with the exception of the. ...
