Review summary

The Allure is a beautiful ship, wonderful for families and all ages.  There is so much to do on board, you can never be bored, in fact, it's difficult to fit in all the things you want to do.  The shows are all top notch, the food was wonderful, and our service at early seating was terrific.  We booked three balcony cabins, side by side on the 14th rear deck, and were able to watch the water shows from our balconies.  The room steward opened up the divider between the three balconies, so we had a great place to relax together.  Our only mild complaint was that the elevators took too long to get to the 14th deck at busy times, and then a lot of them were full when they arrived.  We had similar cabins on the Oasis a few years ago, but on the 11th deck, and that seemed to work out better.

Great location and the stewards will open up the balconies when traveling with friends. There could be more storage drawers in the room, but we managed.

Ship tip

We found that eating breakfast on the 3rd deck dining room was much better than battling the crowds at the buffet. We could order off the menu if we desired, and if in a hurry, there was a full buffet to choose from.

Ports of call

Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida

Lovely island, nice to be able to dock and not tender in.

Falmouth, Jamaica

The shops just off the ship were fine, but the town just outside the port was a slittle scary. We took an excursion to have high tea at a chateau in the mountains, and thoroughly enjoyed the day.

Cozumel, Mexico

Lots to do, but friends were disappointed in the snorkling excursion. Not worth the money.

I love the Allure & the Oasis.  There are so many things to do on board.  I was never bored.
