For the first time we picked a Central Park Balcony on a recent Allure cruise over an ocean view balcony...usually do ocean view balcony. We both really enjoyed it very much and would do again. Try and pick a cabin on 10 (14 not good as right below the pool). We also picked a cabin closer to where they play the music at night. I would not pick Board Walk Balcony as it is too loud, but that is my opinion. At night you can see across the way at your neighbors but just shut the sheers!
