Did the Allure of the Seas get renovated?

While Oasis got upgraded in 2019, Allure has yet to receive a second major refurbishment. (It was postponed due to the pandemic and is now scheduled for 2025.)



Yes, Allure of the Seas underwent a massive, $100 million "amplification" or renovation that was completed in early 2025. This dry-dock transformation was part of Royal Caribbean's effort to bring the ship in line with the newer Oasis-class and Icon-class vessels. The renovation added several high-thrill features, including The Perfect Storm trio of waterslides and the Ultimate Abyss, a 10-story dry slide that plunges from the Sports Deck down to the Boardwalk. New dining and bar venues were also introduced, most notably the Pesky Parrot tiki bar (which first debuted on Utopia of the Seas) and the Mason Jar Southern Restaurant & Bar. The ship also received a total refresh of its Adventure Ocean kids' areas and the teen-exclusive Social298 space. For travelers in 2026, the ship feels brand new, featuring the latest tech and "Ultimate Panoramic Suites" located above the bridge, which offer 200-degree views. This renovation was originally planned for 2020 but was delayed, making the 2025 refresh even more extensive than initially proposed.
