Danotelli Posted July 11, 2017 Report Share Posted July 11, 2017 Had an amazing time on the Allure with my daughter, highlights.. Entertainment - I can see why this ship is top rated for their shows and entertainment, it seemed we were constantly going to see something new- the best was Mama Mia! What a great cast, we were invited to meet the cast for Q&A - very informative! I liked Blue Planet as well, very much a shorter showing (one hour versus 2.5 for Mama Mia). Before sailing with Allure, be sure to watch the movie - it made it much more enjoyable to me. Food - purchased the three night dining package, which was perfect for us. I enjoyed Chops and 150 Central Park. Didn't thing the scallops at 150 were that great but the ambiance and experience was awesome. Tasted the chicken... and wow! Really good.. Dinner at the MDR was good, not great. Pasta at Giovani's was tasty if a bit dry - they must make their own pasta, tasted like it.. Drinks - I liked the "Ultimate Mai Tai" - that was a great drink! Pools: there were over 6 thousand people on board, and finding a chair is difficult. I think a lot get up and put their towels to claim them early - just be aware of that. I saw chairs not used with towels on them for hours.. not cool man. Also I saw a 50.00 charge for towels at the end of the cruise, and I was very careful about returning them. One call the RC and they fixed it within 20 mins (called me back etc.). One of my bags was not delivered to my room on day one and was left down the hall.. not sure how that happened but at least it wasn't lost! Excursions : had fun in Jamaica on the horses.. tip: if you want the guys to take pics while your in the water, just ask and they will, but be sure to tip them.. I gave them 30 as I had a lot of great pics! (probably gave too much but it's eirie mon..) XPlore in Cozumel was awesome - the zips were great, the ATV was awesome.. tip: since you do this on the mainland and take the ferry, stay to the back of the ship... saw quite a few get sick (and that made me 'almost' get sick).. not fun .. Overall a great experience on a VERY BIG ship! RestingBird and mom2mybugs 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danotelli Posted July 11, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2017 Oh - one other thing I thought was interesting.. about 1.5 hours from Jamaica the ship stopped in the middle of the ocean to assist a vessel - apparently they ran out of oil or something. When I woke and saw all the men with their hands up.. I was thinking what? Pirates? Not the case, the ship just provided them with gas and water and offered them a ride but they refused.. rjac 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjac Posted July 11, 2017 Report Share Posted July 11, 2017 Good review! We did a 2 week B2B last year and have another B2B booked for next year. It takes a week just to find everything on the Allure and the second to really enjoy her! KLA 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
