Royal Caribbean’s 2010-built Allure of the Seas will head into dry-dock in April 25, for a US$100 million “glow-up.
Part of the company’s Royal Amplified refit program, the initiative will see many new venues and features added to the 5,484-passenger, double occupancy ship.
Following the upgrade, Allure will offer more than 35 ways venues for dining and drinking, along with a new water park and upgraded pool decks. New suites will be added, and the line’s signature Ultimate Abyss slide will add thrills.
“From the new Icon and Utopia of the Seas to now the more than $100 million transformation of Allure of the Seas, we’ve upped the ante threefold on the different ways vacationers can get away and make memories with Royal Caribbean,” said Jay Schneider, RCI Chief Product Innovation Officer.

“Allure will be reimagined with the best of Royal Caribbean and what travellers love. Between new favourites, like the Pesky Parrot tiki bar (which just debuted on Utopia of the Seas), and experiences that unlock core memories time and time again, from an incredible pool deck to an unmatched combination of thrills and ways to chill, Allure will have even more of everything that makes it a standout favourite,” Schneider added.

The refurbishment will be completed ahead of the ship’s summer program in the Western Mediterranean, which will see it offer seven-night cruises to Spain, Italy and France. After completing that run in October, Allure will return to Fort Lauderdale in November 2025, to offer six- to eight-night cruises in the Caribbean.
Allure is following in the wake of sister ship Oasis of the Seas, which was “amplified” in 2019.
