Royal Caribbean International has announced a significant renovation for its Allure of the Seas, with plans to debut the upgraded vessel in April 2025. The project, estimated to cost over $100 million, will introduce new features and experiences for passengers sailing in the western Mediterranean.
The renovated Allure of the Seas will offer 7-night itineraries from Barcelona, Spain, visiting ports such as Marseille, France; La Spezia and Rome, Italy; and Palma de Mallorca, Spain.
"Allure will be reimagined with the best of Royal Caribbean and what travelers love," said Jay Schneider, chief product innovation officer at Royal Caribbean International. "Between new favorites, like the Pesky Parrot tiki bar, to an incredible pool deck and an unmatched combination of thrills and ways to chill, Allure will have even more of everything that makes it a standout favorite."
Key additions to the ship include a redesigned Caribbean-themed pool deck with resort-style pools and various seating options; new water attractions, including The Perfect Storm waterslides and Splashaway Bay for younger guests; the Pesky Parrot tiki bar, featuring fruit-based cocktails; Playmakers Sports Bar & Arcade; The Mason Jar Southern Restaurant & Bar; the Ultimate Abyss, a 10-story dry slide; a new Royal Escape Room experience; Laser Tag in the Studio B ice rink; and upgraded spaces for children and teens.
The renovation is part of Royal Caribbean's Royal Amplified program, which began in 2018. After its Mediterranean season, Allure of the Seas will relocate to Fort Lauderdale, Florida, in November 2025 for Caribbean itineraries.
