We have always wanted to take a cruise. My brother had sailed the Allure 9 times along with other family members and he highly recommended this cruise. We finally committed and do not regret it one bit. We felt like royalty and the service was exceptional. We booked another cruise while on board with the family members that were present along with a couple of friends we met onboard and our youngest daughter. When we got home we were boasting about the cruise and now have an additional 2 family members going on our next July 1, 2018 cruise with us and they will be celebrating their 15 wedding anniversay along with a 40th birthday. The quality of food and service was beyond what I thought it would be, the entertainment was beyond the quality I thought a ship would provide. We hightly recommend this ship and cruise line for its remarkable service that was provided.
