Explorer of the seas - refurbishment

[Paulette3028]

We enjoyed Izumi on Allure and it was well worth the month and very reasonable. We love Japanese food and what we ordered was as good as the Japanese restaurants we visit at home and had a different variety, which was nice.

Is Izumis worth going to if you don't like seafood. I see a lot of the dishes, whilst look amazing are seafood so not sure I'd there is much else to interest me?

I found several items other than seafood, such as beef and chicken. Also, the new Hibachi option adds more choice.

Thanks Clarea! My wife enjoys sushi etc so would like to take her but still enjoy the meal myself! Sounds like I still have quite a few options!

Thanks for your prompt reply...

I'm sure they'll be fantastic but a bit disappointed as I was hoping it may have been Chicago

 

Kind regards

No Michael kors store and no coastal kitchen

A lot of extra cabins but not a lot of extra space.

Does anyone know the evening main show times?

To those who are on Explorer OTS at the moment...

 

I've seen rumours on other sites that they've got rid of the mini-golf course - please tell me this is nonsense? I loves me a round of mini-golf!

[jaz33]

I take it there is no Sorrento's onboard and pizza is from Cafe Promenande? There is still Starbucks onboard?

 

 

Pizza and Starbucks are still in Cafe Promenade.

That was only for a limited run last summer and is no longer aboard.

hi all ... just back from our first cruise to the Canary Islands ... it was just magic for me ... will try to post a bit more later but in answer to a couple of questions ... yes there is still a mini golf ... we played 3 games and hubby beat me at all three ...

 

we enjoyed watching the fun on the flowrider but thought that the seating space around the poolside was not enough for the number of people on board

 

 

the things we enjoyed in the Cafe Promenade was the cheesecake lollipops ... the willywonka pie and the crossantsandwhich ... yum yum

 

we had a cabin with a balcony 8650 and it was more than big enough for the two of us ... the cabin was great and we were pleased that we had paid the bit extra for the balcony.

 

we were a bit disappointed with some of the shows and actually left before the end of a couple of them ...

 

will post more later but need to unpack and get the washing machine going ... if you have any questions let me know and I will try to answer you

Yes it is..

[NicNac4498]

From Royal Caribbean press center.

 

"Additionally, guests sailing on the cruise line’s Adventure of the Seas will be able to experience a limited time engagement of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s musical Tell Me on a Sunday, running through November 2, 2014."

It was in the theatre on Saturday night - I only got off the ship a few hours ago

Interesting. I thought it was a limited run.

Perhaps it went down well so they moved it to explorer? I didn't go and see it so don't know how good it was

Hi

 

There have been some horrible tweets this last week about the ship being dirty, staff being rude, 90 minute waits between courses in the Dining Room and food being inedible. It's seriously stressing me out. Is this a true reflection or is it just moaning?

 

Can I also ask, what is the earliest time for disembarkation, please? I am flying at 10am from Southampton Airport.

 

Thank you for your help.
