Royal Caribbean Allure of the Seas, Interior Cabin Tour
Переглядів 19214 днів тому
A quick tour of our interior cabin on Royal Caribbean's Allure of the Seas cruise ship. We stayed in this space for a week and thought it was perfectly spacious. I previously sailed in a balcony cabin on this ship and in my opinion this cabin was better for warm to hot weather cruising. The balcony cabin struggled to maintain a cool temperature along with a few other issues. I would choose an i...

Hey Babe....The sound was poor on most of this Vlog.....However it looks like you and John had a good time and that's all that matters...
I have to say that I am surprised how big the atrium is. You dont even feel like you are on a ship. Amazing. LIKE 7👍👍👍
Another awesome video of tips. We are still trying to learn more about cruises. LIKe 20👍👍👍
I love your videos and this one is no different! ❤
Yay! Thank you!
Good advice....short, sweet and to the point......And thats what you are paying for so take full advantage and have a good time......
Excellent tips!
🕺🏼 I bring my own soap AND holder 🕺🏼
Even better!
I have only watched 3 videos that ever gave a price on drinks. ❤🍹🧋Thank you for that, it is not a secret so i dont understand😂
Even though you had a complaint, I bet overall experience out weighs the negatives right. Besides, this is an awesome looking ship. HAHA. LIKE 22. 👍👍👍
Yes! Top notch customer service and we had a wonderful day as always!
I am still too full from seeing all that food at breakfast. 😊
Right? That looked like breakfast, lunch and dinner! LOL!
@@mmc9828 Yup
I figured that yesterday's server would not follow thru on your 50% discount. Grrrrrr
Those tapas looked delicious. So sorry you had a bad experience at Rising Tide, I hate when that shit happens. At least Guest Services voided out that million dollar wine glass from embarkation.
It might as well have been a million dollars! Thank you for understanding 🤣
@@Sotweetie i was shocked, 20 dollars for a single glass of wine 🫨 royal is so bad with the drink price gouging!
Hey babe...I'm a major shareholder of RCL and I want my guests to be shown a good time for the money the are spending.... I want them to have good food and good Entertainement......
They do a great job delivering both!
Thanks for all the info…very helpful. You are so cute!
Thank you! I hope the information is useful - happy travels!
Afternoon tea on Cunard is fabulous. Held in the ballroom, i real avent.
That sounds fabulous! Have a great time on the Sky, it's a wonderful ship.
Rather than "tea time", it's called "afternoon tea". It's not something we do often here in England, but lovely for a treat. I'm on Sky Princess for the first time next August.😊
Great video and suggestions! I primarily sail NCL and drinks are unlimited and included with most of the cabin categories. I'm sure one is paying for it one way or another but really helps in budgeting. They do charge a daily gratuity though so that is extra. I usually add on the Unlimited Starbucks package with is less than $15 per day + daily 20% gratuity. Which is a great deal!
NCL does a great job on this aspect of cruising - taking the guess work out of the final total for an inclusive vacation!
You sure have problems with those drink perks. Thinking of your SWIFT issues on Dawn 😅
I have a cocktail curse! 😅
We absolutely agree with you. We could not make reservations at any Specialty dining until we paid in full. So we paid way ahead of the 90 days. We still could not get into our restaurant of choice and had to choose other ones. Can you imagine trying to get into a Specialty restaurant for every night? Carl and Patti Miller
Hi! Do you have any more videos from the quest game?
Starting around the 1:08:00 mark in the video here we have some 360 footage from the gameshow. Enjoy! ua-cam.com/video/J5d_WlkAOv0/v-deo.htmlsi=GOBe8Hy5EYEaGbDi
Still watching1 It was nice to meet you.
So great to meet you, too!
Also, I just had to add this: Your hair at the 15 minute mark is so incredibly beautiful! I know from all your past vlogs you and your curly hair have a love hate relationship, lol. But it is sooo pretty when its long and curly like that!
Thank you! The struggle is real in humid weather 😅
@Sotweetie my hair is like Cynthia, the doll from Rugrats 🫢🫢🤣
Galveston must have people working there that are from Vancouver, want to spread the chaos around 😂 Speaking of cruise vloggers, what the heck happened to Scott Singer? His channel is totally scrubbed.
Lol! Yes, Vancouver is a disaster. I am hoping that our first few experiences at Royal Caribbean's new Galveston pier were just growing pains. The structure itself is fabulous. Maybe taking the donuts away from workers until they go on break would help...🍩
Got a chuckle from: I don't think John is going to like this. John: This is perfect! Hehe sounds like my life. We went on the Vloggers cruise, and I was looking for you. Thanks for sharing!
It sounds like the vloggers trip was a blast!
White people taco night!
Party on
Tom!! 🤩
Long time subscriber, 1st time commenting. I found you through Chosen Won, I love your channel!! Thank you for showing us everything!! I'm living vicariously through you ❤😊
Thanks for being here!
Yeah....You really need to watch your bill on a dilly basis....These ships have become nothing more then Vegas hotels on water....And the club venues have gotten smaller.....but the bars haven't and have become large.....
That's a good point - the bars are getting bigger and more plentiful, the gathering spaces are shrinking, and the non-revenue locations like libraries are disappearing altogether.
Love it. RC is not the only one supercharging for upgrades, like you, I am sticking to what I booked 😂 I'm going with Celebrity soon and was purchasing water for my cabin until I realized they added a tip to it. Should Amazon add a tip too when we order something? Call me crazy /cheap but I think is ridiculous. PS I believe that the restaurant by the Solarium has always been a buffet in the morning.
I think adding a gratuity to pre-ordered water is silly, I can't remember if they added it to the internet package but would NOT be surprised! 😋
What a fun day. You actually had a good time. LIKE 4. 👍👍👍
That’s a pretty cute cabin! Love the colors! Like 10! 👍🏻👍🏻
It's also so much waste. Nobody is going to eat all of that candy.
That's a really spacious interior room, and nice that the bathroom has a separate shower. Those interiors with the weird ass RV style wet bath, no thanks! I made the mistake of booking a suite on our first cruise ever back in 2019 and my spoiled husband will now accept no substitute 😮 it was like pulling teeth to get him to agree to a mini-suite on the Coral P. He really is too bougie sometimes 😂
Oh no, you can't start out in a suite!! I guess it's a little late now and I am preaching to the choir 😅
Sweet.....But would you rater have a balcony cabin.......
Not on Allure of the Seas - I preferred this cabin because last time when I had a balcony it was too hot and humid to enjoy. I also believe the sliding glass door made it difficult for the cabin to keep cool and I woke up uncomfortably warm every night. The interior cabin was a much better choice!
Wonderful cruise trip ❤❤ thank you for sharing my dear friend ❤❤❤
Thank you for visiting!
Seems like specialty dining is going to get booked out.
❤
Lol@2 a day. Talk about a sugar rush.
Diabetes has entered the chat!
Yup, everyone is just getting every part of the trip in. HAHAHA. LIKE 8👍👍👍
Now let me get in swimsuit shape so I can live like most of the people filmed 😝
Topside looked pretty crowded.......
Getting the most out of the last day onboard!
Doing the 360 while its playing is so cool! Thanks John!
I was resistant but love the final product!!
Been watching since I have never been on a cruise and doing some research. HAHA. LIKE 26 Manager, Risk Business Operations
Plus works fine for us.The WIFI and gratuities make it worth while. I just wish the would come up with a cheaper package that doesn't include alcohol. They need a Plus/Minus package with coffee, soda, non alcoholic drinks and the rest of the Plus benefits. 15 days till our next Princess cruise. Hope you have a great Birthday cruise.
I found if I pay off my cruise very early the upcharge dining venues are all available as are the times. I am able to get all the dining and times I need without the package as we don't drink much alcohol. The packages don't work for us.
Too expensive for me to add.
Agree about the dining. We had 360 included on one cruise and couldn't book it because there were no openings. They refunded us $149 each when we went to the customer service desk to complain.
We’re already booked & paid for Premiere package for our Sept-Oct 26-day to Hawaii. Do we need to pay the difference between the new pricing and our already paid package? I’m fine with the additions $$.
F Princess....just a matter of time before they upcharge again....Princess should just have one inclusive price for everything.........
