Review summary

This was our first ever cruise, and as you can tell by the rest of our history we are hooked!! Crazy that it was on the largest cruise ship in the world at the time!!

We were a family of 4, with an 11 & 14 yo. Awesome space for us!!

Ship tip

Don’t use the elevators! Walk the stairs… 😉

Ports of call

Labadee (Cruise Line Private Island)

5 out of 5
We did the zip line, but day of port it was windy and they changed the weight limit so my son couldn’t go on it. He was sad. But the rest of our time there was awesome!

Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida

4 out of 5
We only stayed over night and went straight to the port…

Falmouth, Jamaica

At the time this port was still being developed. We did a self excursion to DUNN’s River Falls. Never again. 👎🏼

Cozumel, Mexico

That's great you loved the cruise but that was 10 years ago. Lots of changes since then. The Allure is still a wonderful ship and cruising is the best vacation ever!

I see y'all are Royal Caribbean buffs... if you give Ncl another try consider one of thier mega ships ... the NCL Star is not thier best.
