Royal Caribbean’s Allure of the Seas cruise ship has completed an 18-day drydock revitalization, the company said.
The project included the addition of three new restaurants (there are now 18 total), 10 new suites and new boutiques including Kate Spade New York and Michael Kors, among other changes.
The new restaurants include Izumi Hibachi and Sushi, Sabor Taqueria and Tequila Bar and Coastal Kitchen, a restaurant that will be exclusive to suite guests.
The ship will be homeported in Barcelona through October 2015; the following month, Allure of the Seas will return to Fort Lauderdale for alternating seven-night Western and Eastern Caribbean itineraries, according to Royal Caribbean.
Royal Caribbean recently announced that it had made an order for another new cruise ship last month.
