Az's Cruising Nana Posted April 14, 2010 #1 Share Posted April 14, 2010 We have these 2 cabins on hold for March 2011. They look great with that large balcony. Does anyone have feedback on elevator noise??? Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdpups Posted April 14, 2010 #2 Share Posted April 14, 2010 Had 8088 on Serenade last March and loved it. Huge balcony and no noise from the elevator, but oh so convenient to them. Grab it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cb at sea Posted April 14, 2010 #4 Share Posted April 14, 2010 The elevators and stairs are NOT open to the cabin hallways...there's NO NOISE! Great, convenient location! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Choozin Croozin Posted April 21, 2010 #5 Share Posted April 21, 2010 Booked 8102 on the Radiance for ALaska and loved it so much we booked way early for our upcoming caribbean cruise so we made sure to get it again, this time on the Serenade. No elevator noise at all.....the elevator is more in line with the balcony then the cabin. Because you are the first cabin in the hallway, we did get a little noise from the lobby, and from people (1 night only) coming back late laughing. By no means did it really bother us. The other thing I was concerned about was that I would feel like I was in a cave. I had seen pictures and they just don't do it justice. We LOVE the extra room and if the weather was cool and windy (as in Alaska) we could still be out there enjoying the outdoors. Hopefully we will like it as well when the weather is warm. I am going to see if I can come up with a picture for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Choozin Croozin Posted April 21, 2010 #6 Share Posted April 21, 2010 (edited) Radiance of the Seas - Cabin 8102 Let's see if this works. A little small even when you click on it, but I think you get the picture. Edited April 21, 2010 by choozin' cruzin' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

melbur Posted June 8, 2010 #9 Share Posted June 8, 2010 From the picture of cabin 8102 -it looks like it is all covered -is there any open space to sit in the sun? Both 8088 and 8102 are completely covered. Very little sun on the balcony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope it's not the 19th as 8102 is my cabin. :eek: Back to your original question Sue, I stayed in 8102 on the Radiance and originally was concerned about noise. As others have stated, no noise from the elevator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruzinjudi Posted June 8, 2010 #12 Share Posted June 8, 2010 I have another question-----my husband are non smokers- what is the smoking policy for smoking in the cabins and balconies, we just got off a celebrity cruise and it was restricted in cabins, which was nice for a non smoker but smokers did have certain places to smoke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
booze brothers Posted June 8, 2010 #13 Share Posted June 8, 2010 8102 and 8088 do get some sun but you have to be all the way out at the railing. Since there are usually two lounge chairs, two reg. chairs and a table, there is plenty of room to move a lounger into the sun. How about the aft cabins? They also have the huge balconies and are full sun. It's a longer walk but people love them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Choozin Croozin Posted June 8, 2010 #15 Share Posted June 8, 2010 (edited) From the picture of cabin 8102 -it looks like it is all covered -is there any open space to sit in the sun? To add to what others have said...you also will get sun either at the start of the day or as the sun goes down, depending on which way you are facing....but not too good for sunbathing. However, when we were in Alaska, it was enough to sit out there and get the warmth of the sun every afternoon. We loved that. I also like it because I like to be able to sit out there at those time of days and be able to get "out" of the direct sun when it is so hot. I guess it is all what your pleasure is. ;) Enjoy.

lanabanana Posted June 9, 2010 #16 Share Posted June 9, 2010 Shhhhhh.....don't be telling everyone about these cabins!! :eek: They should remain a secret so that they are always available for those of us who love them so much. We have had these cabins on numerous cruises and have 8102 booked for the Jewel repo this fall. They are the BOMB! That said however, I have had a cruise ruined by neighbors smoking constantly on their balcony, so this is always a risk. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad to hear you do get a little sun on the balcony. From the pic it looks like the balcony is long. Does it make the cabin darker???? Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bouhunter Posted April 25, 2014 #20 Share Posted April 25, 2014 I think you will enjoy it. Best of both worlds. We always like being near the elevators etc mid-ship. The large balcony sounds great, should be nice having that benefit in that location and not being a long ways off in an aft:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
looking4info Posted April 25, 2014 #21 Share Posted April 25, 2014 My turn to dredge up an old thread:D We just booked 8088 on Serenade for next winter - sounds like a great cabin!!:) Recently spent two weeks (B2B) in that cabin. Very large balcony with two lounge chairs, two regular chairs and a table. The balcony is like a cavern and your voice echoes loudly. As for noise, with the Centrum stuff going on you can definately hear it in the cabin. Most evenings the the big hallway door was closed to block some of the sound. No elevator noise. Not a huge deal and would book the cabin again. Enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linsifer Posted July 3, 2014 #22 Share Posted July 3, 2014 I'm glad you liked it! We just booked it on Brilliance of the Seas. Had 8088 on Serenade last March and loved it. Huge balcony and no noise from the elevator, but oh so convenient to them. Grab it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjeffler Posted July 3, 2014 #23 Share Posted July 3, 2014 Love it! This is 8102 from Radiance on June 6th. Had very little noise issues. Love the location and the LARGE balcony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sewjosa Posted November 22, 2015 #24 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Are there no loungers in 8102/8088 anymore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Choozin Croozin Posted November 22, 2015 #25 Share Posted November 22, 2015 (edited) If you don't get a response, I can let you know after our March cruise but you probably would like to know by then.
