At the time we sailed on the Allure she was the biggest cruise ship in the world. It was wonderful.

Cabin / Stateroom

This was our first cruise being in Diamond Plus. We originally booked a Jr. Suite but when we arrived at the pier we received an automatic upgrade to a Crown Loft Suite. This suite is awesome. Plenty of room. Nice balcony and two beautiful bathrooms especially the one upstairs.

Ship tip

Don't over pack.

We always stay in a Grand suite. The Oasis class ships have the private dinning for suite guests in the Coastal Kitchen and it is worth the price. Suite guests also get reserved seating at shows and concierge. Great way to cruise.
