kshees Posted March 11, 2013 #1 Share Posted March 11, 2013 We are thinking of going on the "New" Sunshine in December and someone suggested a room on the Lido deck. I know it is close to everything but is it loud? I know not to be under the Lido or Casino just not sure of being on the deck. Any thoughts are appreciated. Thanks.

Cruisin'Doc Posted March 11, 2013 #2 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Lido balcony rooms are my all time favorite. I've never had any problems with noise, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shake-n-Bake Posted March 11, 2013 #5 Share Posted March 11, 2013 I had the same concerns also but I got a balcony on the Lido last September on the Liberty and it was great. Absolutely no noise and of course close to everything. I am doing the same this November on the Conquest. I will now always try to get a balcony on the Lido. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k2excursion Posted March 11, 2013 #6 Share Posted March 11, 2013 (edited) Lido deck is not close to everything. It is very far away from dining rooms, entertainment, and getting off/on the ship. It is close to the sunning area, pools, & buffet, but that's not everything that a ship has to offer. There's plenty more that's far below lido deck. I certainly understand people preferring to be close to the buffet & pool areas, but that's not everything. Now that I got that out of me, I wouldn't worry about having a lido deck room. The noise doesn't seem to ever be a problem for those rooms. Somehow, the noise gets blocked, even for the rooms that are closer to the doors. But my personal preference is deck 7, because it is centrally located between (literally) everything. Deck 2 is nice for easy off/on the ship, and very convenient to dining rooms & entertainment. But for deck 2, do not get a room below the galley. Edited March 11, 2013 by k2excursion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colorado Kat Posted March 11, 2013 #7 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Try your best to get a cabin that is both above & below other cabins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjcruiser Posted March 11, 2013 #8 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Would love to try a cabin on the Lido, but I don't like being up that high. I like rooms midship, mid-deck, which is easier to get around due to the central location. I also only choose rooms with passenger decks above and below me.

jwalk03 Posted March 11, 2013 #9 Share Posted March 11, 2013 I have stayed on the Lido Deck & the Panorama Deck and loved them both! Never had any noise issues whatsoever, and its very close to the areas of the ship we frequent the most! (pools, sun deck, buffet, etc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've never heard noise from outside as there are Star Trek "swooshing" doors between the interior and exterior. And since we spend all of our time on deck sunning, it's perfect for us. It's a quick walk back to the cabin for forgotten items or the rest room, it's easy to get something to eat and bring it back to our balcony, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruisinTeacher4 Posted March 11, 2013 #11 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Love Lido Deck Rooms! So close to pools, buffet. Nice to go your room to use the restroom or grab anything you need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CB42 Posted March 11, 2013 #12 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Love the Lido Deck, Had one on the Freedom last year and booked one on the Dream for next February. Never had an issue with noise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

askimdog Posted March 11, 2013 #15 Share Posted March 11, 2013 I suppose one needs to look at your likes and dislikes. Personally we love the low mid-ship Riviera Deck. Our favorite thing is ports and getting off the ship asap to explore. We also love the darkness and quiet of an inside on that deck. What we dislike is the Lido area and avoid it, over crowded, loud, sloppy pool shenanigans, so Lido deck is not what we would do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruizinman Posted March 11, 2013 #17 Share Posted March 11, 2013 (edited) Your best chances for noise will be the very forward cabins on Lido,as there exposed to the winds and rain . The best cabins on lido will be the ones further back close to the exit door, in other words as mid ship as you can get on Lido. If theres a storm or heavy rain your going to hear all kinds of noise in those forward cabins and the ride will be rougher.

We always book Lido balcony cabins closest to the pool area as we can get and never had an issue.We sail usually on Conquest class ships and we have our own hallway with a door that keeps it pretty quiet.If you look right or left once your at the big glass doors leading to the lido you will see another door ,if you open that this is where we stay.Perfect spot Edited March 11, 2013 by mikel24m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kshees Posted March 12, 2013 Author #22 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Thanks everyone for the info. After looking at everything we decided to go with our favorite and it was the Aft Vista premium, we love the wrap around deck on deck 7. When we were first looking they weren't available and then we found one so we are very excited. We may seriously look at the Lido deck on our next cruise though after all of the great reviews here. Thanks so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best spot on the ship, close to everything and you don't waste time WALKING though hallway after hallway to get to your room. Booked another on the Valor.

Hawaii697 Posted March 12, 2013 #24 Share Posted March 12, 2013 We always book the room closest to the Lido deck when we sail (ex. 9293) on Valor. Surprisingly, you don't hear any of the noise coming from the Lido area. And also, because we generally are on the ship extremely early, we take our carry-ons to the cabin and stow them away in the closet. The door that leads to our cabin is not locked like when you get off the elevators and try to get to your cabin. We call it, our "end unit" :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
