dwing18 Posted May 16, 2010 #1 Share Posted May 16, 2010 I am considering paying to upgrade to a cove balcony. Can anybody offer some advice. How noisy are they? Any help is much appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Mach* Posted May 16, 2010 #2 Share Posted May 16, 2010 The Cove's are amazing. We had amazingly rough seas and we did hear some carts crashing about above as we were below the galley but it was a small price to pay to have one of those cabins. They're located close to the waterline and, consequently, the view is amazing... Do it. You won't regret the decision. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghsthunter Posted May 16, 2010 #10 Share Posted May 16, 2010 The cove balcony was worth it! We were able to watch the tenders in Belize while we enjoyed room service on the balcony. Also our first night out a passenger had a medical emergency and we were able to see them off load the passenger onto the waiting ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruiser@Heart Posted May 16, 2010 #13 Share Posted May 16, 2010 We loved watching the hub-bub of the dock happenings from our Cove balcony before leaving for the day and after returning in the afternoon. We were in cabin #2288. Had a great view of the gangway. Go to see lots of interesting things including the group of "runners" who were late coming back to the ship in St. Marteen. ;) Celebrity Solstice Arriving Ambulance Arrives to Remove Passenger off Dream - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lillulu Posted May 17, 2010 #20 Share Posted May 17, 2010 I have a question for any of you that have already had a cove balcony. Do you get a breeze like the higher up balconies. Or does it get kind of hot and stiffling being it is closed in? TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or does it get kind of hot and stiffling being it is closed in? TIA I thought there was plenty of ventilation. Plus you are closer to the water which is relatively cool. Never thought it was hot - maybe sometimes the opposite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
