dsolages Posted May 6, 2011 #328 Share Posted May 6, 2011 BrianAlt, your guide was amazing. Thank you for it. I'm traveling on the Allure of the Seas in July 2011. Unfortunately you won't be on the Allure until next year. However, your guide was extremely helpful since they're sister ships. I wanted to book the Cozumel excursion you took, it's something my husband would enjoy. Do you remember the name of it, I can't find it on the Royal Caribbean website? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianAlt Posted May 6, 2011 Author #329 Share Posted May 6, 2011 Nachi Cocum! We'll be going back here on our Allure cruise too. Lots of info on the Cozumel boards here. Not on the RCI website. Have a great cruise. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsolages Posted May 6, 2011 #330 Share Posted May 6, 2011 I tried to book Nachi Cocum through RCI website but can't find it. Did you book it somewhere else? And thank you for the quick response.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianAlt Posted May 6, 2011 Author #331 Share Posted May 6, 2011 I tried to book Nachi Cocum through RCI website but can't find it. Did you book it somewhere else? And thank you for the quick response.:D It's not through RCI. You have to book it directly with Nachi. Take your own taxi there. We were with a bunch of people and I think it only cost us a few dollars each. Very reasonable. http://www.cozumelnachicocom.net/ $49 pp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JennLuvs2Cruise Posted May 31, 2011 #335 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Stumbled upon this thread this morning & I have enjoyed reading it all and viewing the fantastic photos! This thread makes me happy that I'll be on the Allure next year & finally giving RCI a try! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianAlt Posted June 1, 2011 Author #336 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Great report! Thanks! Thank you. Thought I'd bump it up so more people can find it. :) And thank you again! Stumbled upon this thread this morning & I have enjoyed reading it all and viewing the fantastic photos! This thread makes me happy that I'll be on the Allure next year & finally giving RCI a try! :) That's great! Have a great cruise! When are you on Allure? I'll be there in April. [Edit: Okay, now I see it's June.] I completely forgot you went there and had reported on it, DUH :o I guess when I was reading your review I was prepping for my eastern Oasis itinerary, now that we are sailing a western itinerary I need to go back and re-read the whole thing....and drool some more :D Ha! Always great to see one of my biggest fans. ;) We recently decided to book Nachi Cocom for our November Allure cruise and are very much looking forward to it! It's sooo worth it. We're looking forward to taking our kids with us in April. We were with a family this past weekend and my wife mentioned how when we finally get them to cruise (they're a bit cash strapped right now, otherwise they'd join us in a second!) how much they would love..."what's the name of that place again?" NACHI! "Oh, right, Nachi Cocum." :D Thanks for the kinds words, everyone. Much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken987 Posted June 1, 2011 #337 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Hi Brian, Just curious... Did you ever live in Florida? Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianAlt Posted June 1, 2011 Author #338 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Did you ever live in Florida? I haven't, but I have lots of relatives that are and have. Why do you ask? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken987 Posted June 1, 2011 #339 Share Posted June 1, 2011 You look so familiar to someone I went to school with...but I thought it more polite to ask area than how old are you....lol Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianAlt Posted June 1, 2011 Author #340 Share Posted June 1, 2011 I sure don't mind. I'll be 45 in October. But all the schools I've ever attended are in New York State (mostly City). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigboffs Posted June 1, 2011 #341 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Thank you for your wonderful review. We sail on her the end of November and look forward to eating our way around the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
centurycruiser Posted June 1, 2011 #342 Share Posted June 1, 2011 If we go to 3 or 4 specialty restaurants, I do not want to tip for 7 nights! Sorry to vent, but need some advice... Tips for the waiters cover breakfast, lunch, snack times, teas, etc, not just dinner. The MDR wait staff are assigned throughout the ship for other meals. So, just consider your tip of $3 as $1.50 per meal and it is still a bargain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianAlt Posted June 1, 2011 Author #343 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Thank you for your wonderful review. We sail on her the end of November and look forward to eating our way around the ship. We certainly enjoyed doing it (if you somehow couldn't tell). She's a wonderful ship. Have a great cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigboffs Posted June 1, 2011 #344 Share Posted June 1, 2011 We certainly enjoyed doing it (if you somehow couldn't tell). She's a wonderful ship. Have a great cruise. Thank you.

Ginnyfyr Posted June 2, 2011 #345 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Thank you SO MUCH for this awesome review! Hubby and I are on the Oasis in September and I was getting a little mind boggled at all the dining options. From everything I have read here on CC, I think we will also do our best to avoid the Windjammer...looks like we have some great breakfast options between the Solarium, Johnny Rockets & Park Cafe! We were also very curious about many of the a la cartes for dinners so you've helped us out tremendously! We were waffling on doing the chef's dinner (one of hubby's colleagues recommended it but I couldn't find much info about it) and I think it'll be a definite "yes" after your review of it. Thanks again! (also...shouldn't have read this at 9:30 at night...I'm pretty hungry now, lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It truly is amazing :D A group of us are going on the Oasis in October, and I have sent the link to this thread to each of them.
