Review summary

After sailing with Carnival for 9 trips, we decided to give Royal Caribbean a try. Needless to say, it did not disappoint. We had a very good time on the Allure. The entertainment was the highlight of the trip. Entertainment was awesome. This ship is large and beautiful, with lots of amenities to enjoy. We will sail Carnival again, but will definitely sail Royal as well. Each line has its own pros and cons. It's up to the individual to decide. I choose both. LOL

Food and Dining

The food was excellent in the main dining room and buffets. Only did the hibachi for specialty dining and it was excellent and entertaining as well.

Onboard Activities

Enjoyed the fitness center 2 days of the cruise. It is very nice, with lots of options. Zip line was fun. Only got in the pool once, late in the evening, when the crowds died down.

Everything was perfect. Room seemed just a little smaller than the balcony cabins on our previous Carnival cruises, but it was still fine.
