This was our 3rd RC cruise and 2nd time aboard the Allure. staff was excellent and very attentive. The food was excellent - best dessert of the week was the war dark chocolate cookie- trust me order 2 😊. Top notch entertainment.

Review summary

Amazing! Relaxing!! Highly recommend!!! Love cruising!!!!

Embarkation

5 out of 5
We always arrive early to port. They have streamlined the process and we walked straight through and was onboard by 11:30.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Main dining room breakfast and my time dining are fabulous. Wait staff are so helpful and make dinner fun. Windjammer offers a great selection.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Lounging by the pool is a must. Plenty of chairs and space. ZipLine and wave runner were fun. Lines not that long. Solarium is a nice touch but can get hot. Library is a nice touch for a quiet early morning place to read.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
The water show is a must see!!!! Truly spectacular entertainment. Mama Mia is wonderful also. The ice show was more than I expected - some very talented skaters. The ventriloquist is extremely talented.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Our room steward - Phillip was so nice and attentive. Wait Staff - Amir and Chen were amazing. Most everyone we felt with went above and beyond. Staff in the MDR for breakfast sometimes showed they would rather be in bed. But for the most part everyone made our cruise exceptional.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Well thought out design and easy to maneuver aboard the Allure. Very clean. Saw a little age on Her this time but that is to be expected plus she goes into dry dock in the spring.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Great room my only complaint is the shower. They are very small. πŸ˜±πŸ˜‚

Ship tip

Book shows early. Do my time dining. Slow down and enjoy. Use your cell phone as a camera only.

Ports of call

Nassau, Bahamas

4 out of 5
We were supposed to go to Honduras but they sent us to Nassau instead - not a fair trade. Don’t do an excursion just shopped at port and returned to ship early - which was nice. I must admit the water is beautiful in Nassau.

Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas

5 out of 5
We do not have young children so we did not use the water park but we still loved CocoCay. We had a great relaxing day on the beach. Plenty of chairs and the water was perfect. Food was very tasty and a great selection. Had music performances and the staff were all extremely friendly.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
They made it seamless.
