Review summary

The Allure is by far, one of the prettiest ships out there! Shiny, without the gaudiness that all the ships have. The Central Park was beautiful and the added flowers and sounds were just wonderful.

I was a little dissapointed in the choice selections in the dining room as well as the service, but certainly still ok.

The bathrooms could use a magnifying mirror.

And my biggest complaint, is the lack of communication. We were not aware that we had to make reservations for EVERYTHING. SO many venues were already booked.

wow RCCL should have told u. not cool. how do they expect you to know it is different on these ships? I would be bummed too if I got onboard and couldn't see shows - it's a big part of my cruise experience. Date night every night!

Honestly, when I booked with RC on the phone, I was not told to book my shows online in advance. As stated above, this will be our 1st time on the Oasis class ships. She helped me make my reservations & that was all.

On any oasis class ships you have to book your shows in advance it is to keep the crowds down as you found out you cannot get in without a reservation they should of told you when you were booking
