5 Must Do’s on the Allure of the Seas by Dayna

Allure of the Seas is one of Royal Caribbean’s massive Oasis Class ships. Launched in 2010, she remains one of the largest cruise ships in the world. If you have not experienced an Oasis Class ship, you are missing out! You will never hear your kids say they are bored on this ship!

Here are my must-do’s on Allure of the Seas:

1. Eat at Sorrento’s Pizza – Sorrento’s is one of the complimentary dining venues found on many Royal Caribbean ships. On Allure, Sorrento’s is located on Deck 5 in the Royal Promenade. Serving authentic New York-style pizza until well after midnight, Sorrento’s is a great place to grab a quick bite in the afternoon or late at night after watching a show.
2. Visit Central Park – Oasis Class ships have “neighborhoods” – distinct areas onboard brimming with new and fun things to do. My favorite neighborhood is Central Park. There are over 10,000 live plants that make up this neighborhood. The area is serene and, at the same time, packed with things to do! Central Park houses a number of specialty restaurants as well bars and a couple of shops.
3. Take the kids to the Boardwalk – The Boardwalk is another one of the neighborhoods onboard Oasis Class ships. This fun-filled area is great for the entire family! The kids can ride on the carousel. Yes… you heard me! A carousel on a cruise ship! Have fun in the arcade, stop in the candy shop, grab a gourmet hot dog at the Boardwalk Dog House…there’s just so much to do at the Boardwalk!
4. Eat at a Specialty Restaurant – There are a number of specialty restaurants to try out on Allure of the Seas. I tried out Chops Grille, located in Central Park. The meal and the service were both top notch! Our server was outstanding and gave great recommendations for our meal. The specialty restaurants are an additional charge, but are definitely worth it!
5. Endless Entertainment – I think this may be my favorite part of sailing on Allure of the Seas!! From the ice skating rink to the Aquatheater to the stage, your days and nights will never be boring! In the Aquatheater, we watched Oceanaria – a unique entertainment experience with divers and acrobats performing breathtaking stunts. And don’t forget about Mamma Mia! in the Amber Theater. This amazing Broadway show will not disappoint!
