Royal Caribbean - Allure of the Seas Reviews

I love Royal Caribbean. I have cruised many times with them and am very happy with the level of service I receive. With that said, I was not as impressed with the quality of the food in this cruise. Felt it was a marketing ploy to get you to buy from the specialty restaurants. They have a steak on their day to day menu but it is horrible.

I recomended this cruise to my 7 family members but RC did not do a good job. No one likes the very first cruise with RC. We still have one more coming. Sailing from Rome on Oct 30th with Rhapsody of the Seas. I feel very sorry that RC employees treated customers very rude and over charged the excursion

It's been our 5th cruise with Royal Carribean. Perfect.

I might recommend the cruiseline but not the specific ship.

I have sailed with RC before and like them. Not crazy with the Allure however. Too big to provide the same level of service.

Royal Caribbean was nice, but I think I enjoyed Carnival Cruise Line better.

Excellent and professional service from our travel agent. Paying attention to every small detail which made our family vacation memorable.

In general an OK cruise experience, but some minor ok details draw down the score. Compared with our experiences with MSC, I / we will prefer MSC.

The Allure of the Seas is just the best

They were so friendly and it was truly an awesome experience!

Great Ship friendly staff! We had a wonderful time.

The cruise line has just started in Europe. We experienced several problems but we assume they will iron them out as time goes by.

Overall we like RCCL. We did not like the Allure of the Seas.

We have been loyal to Celebrity and are at the Elite level. We enjoy our status with them and have come to know what to expect. We also like the size and amenities of the Solstice Class ships. On this trip we tried RCCL's Allure - to try a big ship and to do our first Trans Atlantic. There are many pros and cons for each, but bottom line is that we prefer Celebrity.

Royal Caribbean is not the quality it used to be. Holland America and Princess do a better job.

What was great: The ship and the service. Lots of interesting and fun things to do on board, and all the shows were wonderful. Staff members were friendly and personable and always quick to respond to any request. What was not: It'$ all about the drink$$$. Pre-cruise information published by the cruise line warned that even bottled water would be confiscated at boarding (so we had to "smuggle" on a quart of distilled water for my husband's C-Pap machine). A 16-ounce bottle of water cost $3.50 on board! Prices for soft drinks, beer, wine and liquor were equally outrageous. The tap water on board is potable, but it never comes out at a temperature below lukewarm so it needs to be refrigerated before it can be enjoyed.

Awesome experience. Royal Caribbean really wowed me
