My sister and I left on Allure of the Seas on 4/27/14 for a one week cruise. It was my second cruise, her first. The only other cruise I had been on was several years ago and it went from San Diego to Ensenada and Cabo and back to San Diego. The weather was so cold I never wanted to cruise again (it was in November). But I really wanted to see the Caribbean so we planned the cruise when we thought the weather would be better :) and it was!
The Allure is so huge and has so many things to do on it we weren't able to do it all in a week! It was glorious! The staff was great, the cabins were extremely clean and much more closet room than I expected. The food was very good, too! The entertainment was great. The headliner was Tony Tillman (sp?) and he was very good but I think my favorite was Oceanaria! WOW! We got to see every show even though we were too late to book online as if the seats aren't filled, they let stand by people go in at 10 minutes before the show starts. Comedians were great, too! I hadn't laughed that hard in quite some time! Loved the ship!!
