We choose this cruise for a couple of reasons. It was our first cruise since covid and some serious health issues. It was sailing out of Galveston so it was a short drive. We would be on board for my wife's 80th birthday, so a great celebration. And, although we have cruised about a dozen times on Royal, we had never been on one of the monster ships. We wanted to give it a shot.
First, it ...
First, do NOT get The Key on this ship. It's a total rip-off. There is no "fast lane" access to onboard activities as advertised. You only get one hour of private time on each of The FlowRider, Zipline, Ice Skating, and the Rock Wall. Internet connectivity is spotty - ours kept disconnecting. And the welcome lunch is not worth the overall cost. Next, it's almost impossible to get a ...
So this is the very first cruise i have ever been on that started out stress free, then ended up quite the opposite the longer it went on. The views were stunning, however it wasn't enough to make it truly feel like vacation. Below I have compiled a list of things that would have been nice to know before boarding the world's largest ship, Allure of the Seas;
1.Paying for internet: they send ...

This was our second time cruising on Allure with our first having been back in 2015. It's still an impressive ship but there are many other ships in the Royal fleet that are newer or have been refreshed. Unfortunately, Allure missed its scheduled refresh back in 2020 due to the global pandemic and there has been no word form Royal when it's being rescheduled. There are definitely some noticeable ...
We went on a family cruise and it was excellent. There was something for everybody to do. The kids had their own area. Took them rock climbing and they had several pools to go to as well. The service was great and the ship was very impressive. All the shows that we saw we very entertaining and well put together. Loved the buffet at the Windjammer. The 5 star dining experience they had was truely ...
My recent experience on the Allure of the Seas Cruise Ship was nothing short of extraordinary. From the amazing service provided by my waiter, Mr. Jonathan, my assistant waiter, Mr. Chrismart, and my headwaiter, Ms. Maria, to the exceptional food and beautiful presentations, I was thoroughly impressed.
As I stepped into my stateroom #104, I was greeted by my brilliant Stateroom Attendant, Ms. ...
This was our 5th cruise and Second on Royal Caribbean. Previously we had 2 on Carnival, 1 on Holland America, and 1 on Royal Caribbean.
The ship was great. You really can’t appreciate how big and Oasis class ship is until you are near it.
The food ranged from Ok to very good. The buffets were pretty good and only crowded on the first day. We ate in Chops and Giovanni’s. Both were ...
We were curious to try Allure of the Seas, an Oasis Class Ship currently home-porting in Galveston. The new terminal was impressive, as was the face-recognition check-in process. At no time did I feel crowded on this large ship, which was fully booked. The usual boarding day congestion and elevator delays were to be expected, as on just about any other cruise ship. Even though the cruise was sold ...
I have never taken the time to write a review for anything, however this experience was so poorly handle that our vacation was ruined. The lack of appropriate response was unbelievable. We had no AC for our entire 7 day cruise. They came so many times to fix it we lost count. We where still sweating as we pack to leave the ship. I met with upper management 3 times. All we wanted is to be ...
