Louise’s Royal Caribbean Adventure on Allure of the Seas

20th October 2025

This month, our very own Louise embarked on an unforgettable Royal Caribbean cruise aboard Allure of the Seas — one of the world’s most iconic ships! Her incredible Mediterranean cruise itinerary took her from Rome to Barcelona, with a sun-soaked stop in Naples, combining world-class cruising with exciting city stays before and after her voyage.

Pre-Cruise Stay: Exploring Rome

Before boarding Allure of the Seas, Louise spent three magical nights in Rome, soaking up the city’s timeless beauty and vibrant atmosphere. From the Colosseum and Trevi Fountain to Vatican City and the Spanish Steps, every corner revealed another layer of history and charm.

To experience the city like a local, Louise even hired a Vespa — zipping through cobblestone streets and discovering hidden cafés and gelato spots along the way. It was the perfect start to her Mediterranean cruise adventure, blending culture, cuisine, and pure Italian flair.

Life Onboard Allure of the Seas

Once onboard, Louise was instantly impressed by the sheer scale and beauty of the ship. Allure of the Seas is renowned for its award-winning entertainment, exceptional dining, and world-class amenities, and it absolutely lived up to the hype.

Service & Dining

From the moment she stepped onboard, Louise experienced Royal Caribbean’s signature service — friendly, professional, and always delivered with a smile. The dining options were nothing short of incredible:

Casual bites like Mexican tacos, Spanish tapas, and hot dogs by the pool
A lavish buffet featuring global favourites and themed nights
The main dining room, where Louise enjoyed elegant three-course dinners that changed nightly

Every meal was beautifully prepared, and the variety meant there was truly something for everyone — whether you craved comfort food, fine dining, or international Flavors.

Entertainment & Relaxation

The entertainment onboard Allure of the Seas was world-class. From dazzling Broadway-style shows to live music, outdoor performances, and comedy nights, there was always something exciting happening.

During a relaxing sea day, Louise treated herself to a spa manicure, enjoying some pampering time in the ship’s serene wellness space. For total relaxation, the adults-only Solarium offered a peaceful hideaway with whirlpools, plush loungers, and a fully stocked bar — ideal for sipping a tropical cocktail while watching the waves roll by.

Post-Cruise Stay: Barcelona Bliss

After disembarking in Barcelona, Louise extended her adventure with an overnight stay in this vibrant coastal city. She spent the day exploring La Rambla, soaking in the energy of the street performers and markets, before visiting the breathtaking Sagrada Família, Gaudí’s masterpiece.

As evening fell, she enjoyed sangria and tapas at a local restaurant — the perfect end to a once-in-a-lifetime journey filled with sunshine, sea breezes, and unforgettable memories.

The Verdict: An Unforgettable Mediterranean Cruise

Louise described her Allure of the Seas cruise as “absolutely unforgettable” — the perfect blend of luxury, fun, and discovery.
