We were on the Allure of the Seas last June in the Mediterranean and had a wonderful time -however we had 6 ports and so everyday was an adventure off the boat. On the last day, we realized that we had seen so little of the ship and it was amazing. So this summer, we took another cruise on the Allure in the Caribbean -- much more ship time, 3 days at sea. To be honest I was worried about what it would be like for 3 days at sea with 6400 other guests -- but worried for no reason, the days at sea were filled with fun and enjoying the deck and pools. It never felt too crowded. Just find your spot and enjoy!

The beds are comfortable, and I loved the balcony view. The service is amazing. I think what is most special about the ship, is quite simply the crew. Not only did they always have a smile, they truly seemed to enjoy the guests and each other -- even in the chaos of 6400 guests wandering the ship. Their joy is contagious!

The shows were great, the talent is top notch! Read more
