Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
All the food was delicious. Only thing was on second day coffee again started to taste like grinds and cig butts. My time dining did not give us a consistent wait staff or table. Disappointed in that. But the meals were delicious.

Ship Quality

Beautiful ship the Allure with wonderful art work everywhere.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Our room attendant was the best!!! But we did notice the ship in general needs to heavy duty wash or replace the cabin carpets. Also the couches need to be recovered. The only shabby thing we noticed on the ship.

Ship tip

Explore the ship and step out of your comfort zone to meet people and try things that look interesting.

Ports of call

Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida

5 out of 5
Easy entrance via airport--10 minute taxi to Embassy Suites with lots of shopping and restaurants in walking distance.

Labadee (Cruise Line Private Island)

5 out of 5
Can't wait to go back to Labadee! Nellies beach was soft sand and clear sea bottom. Ship in view with easy access to bathrooms, bar, and lunch. Loved everything about Labadee!

Falmouth, Jamaica

5 out of 5
Just went shopping in this port. (and met Jack Sparrow!)

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
Nachicocom Beach Resort for the day was wonderful. Beautiful beach, pool and hot tub. Delicious meal on a tray brought out to our chairs under a beautiful palm covered wooden umbrella. Staff ran their butts off for us. Very personable staff. Taxi to and from very efficient. WONDERFUL day!

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
We downloaded the mobile customs app and did the luggage valet the night before. Thus we walked off after breakfast without waiting and went into the faster mobile customs line. Only glitch was we still had to show our actual passport! But we were off ship in minutes with no waiting! Luggage arrived with our plane in NY!
