Rare mcatmcat Posted July 25, 2013 #1 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Hi Most of the time I had an interior cabin but this time I'm going on the Allure western itinerary ( Cozumel -Jamaica - Haiti ) and I was wondering which side of the balconies you prefer and why. Thank you for your help Sent using the Cruise Critic forums app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hgmizzou Posted July 25, 2013 #2 Share Posted July 25, 2013 On Allure and Oasis, we have chosen Starboard because (most of the time) that is the side that she docks on. That way, we can enjoy views of the islands when docked (at least that's the plan). :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swim13 Posted July 25, 2013 #3 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Well, I am just finishing up my review and in it you can see pictures from our room at every port! 100% Starboard side when doing the Western Itin. on Allure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neptune18 Posted July 25, 2013 #4 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Starboard for sure, better when at sea or docked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenninlaca Posted July 25, 2013 #5 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Just chiming in to agree - definitely Starboard, particularly for the views of Labadee as you come in. Gorgeous!! All of the action was on that side of the ship for our recent Western. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you keep checking there will be one come available and if none become available don't fret over it. We have been both port and starboard on Allure (port western, starboard eastern) and had a great time on both. There are things to see on both sides of the ship and you are never guaranteed which side the ship will dock on or if there will be a ship next to you blocking your view. If there is something on the opposite side of the ship you want to see just go to another deck and you will see it. It happens both ways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare S.A.M.J.R. Posted July 26, 2013 #10 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Starboard for sure, better when at sea or docked. What makes the starboard better when at sea? :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
