Rare niksmom630 Posted August 27, 2019 Author #129 Share Posted August 27, 2019 There is a shuttle near the entrance that takes you to barefoot. A great perk after making that long trek down the pier. Their is a station to sign out towels right when you exit the ship, but if you are st barefoot, they are available there. So Save yourself the extra baggage For the walk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe this refers to the "build a bear" that is located on the boardwalk. Kids can create stuffed animals there ($). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare niksmom630 Posted August 27, 2019 Author #132 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Beverage options. Just In case you aren’t hot enough after the walk down the pier with your towels and bags, and you want to add the weight of a 10 pound coconut or pineapple 😂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still wonder how those people got out of the aqua theatre 😉 I wonder if they weren't passengers, but possibly staff/crew of some sort? Dunno. I've heard that those that miss muster will be required to do an individual one on their own in the next port. That is reports I've heard though, not my personal experience. It's always one of the least fun things to do your first few hours onboard...but a necessity. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare cruisegal40 Posted August 27, 2019 #138 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Thanks for doing this. We were on Allure 3 years ago and again in 2 weeks. Hoping we get our cruise moved to western. How is the internet working for you? Seems to be pretty good. Did you pay for the VOOM? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRV FAN Posted August 27, 2019 #139 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Hey Niksmom630..... someone told my husband that the depth of the pools in the Solarium are only "knee deep"...can you confirm that? Surely not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishgal432 Posted August 27, 2019 #140 Share Posted August 27, 2019 I am on the next sailing.

Enjoy the the rest of your cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCWalton1 Posted August 27, 2019 #141 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Chris, I just found your report. Thanks so much for posting. We are still 3 1/2 weeks from boarding Ovation and this helps a lot. Waiting to see those shrimp in Cozumel. 😃 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say that these loft suites are pretty much 3x what we would pay for an ocean view balcony on a 7 day sailing. The price we paid was ridiculously low. The perks of being willing to roll the dice during hurricane season, maybe as well as most kids back to school? Or maybe it’s just my talented travel agent Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I think maybe I would pay something like $ 3250 to $3750 tops during hurricane season for one of those cabins but no more. I would guess you paid more then that right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waiting to see those shrimp in Cozumel. 😃 You and me both. Crazy how a little resort can have some of the best shrimp and guacamole I’ve ever had! 1 hour ago, Jimbo said: I think maybe I would pay something like $ 3250 to $3750 tops during hurricane season for one of those cabins but no more. I would guess you paid more then that right? No, much less actually. It was a crazy pricing fluke in my opinion. It was pretty close to what I have paid for a standard Oceanview balcony on Oasis class ships. Why I said it was my one and only CL Suite. Kind of like the $18 dollar a day drink package. 🤣 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare niksmom630 Posted August 28, 2019 Author #149 Share Posted August 28, 2019 On the last day of our last Allure sailing, I discovered one of the “wonders” Picked up a map at guest services, so I’ll be off on a a little scavenger hunt at some point this week to find the other 19 [emoji847]Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely not. More like waist deep. They are more of a "cooling off" pool and not a swim pool. Edited August 28, 2019 by MrsKC08 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
