jrm116 Posted July 1, 2014 #1 Share Posted July 1, 2014 So I planned on booking ocean view statrooms (can't all fit into one room). Its either a guarantee (which I don't feel comfortable doing) or a balcony. Kinda considering the balcony as I want everyone to be next to or near each other. But I've heard balconies are small on the BA For those that have sailed, is this true? Or should I go with balcony? Inside rooms don't appeal to me; I would like some type of view. I probably should not have waited this late... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
novanoto Posted July 1, 2014 #2 Share Posted July 1, 2014 I had a balcony on the Getaway last month, and while small, it was still certainly more than enough room than you will most likely need. There are two chairs and a small table all facing forward. Enough room to sit out and relax or have 3 people stand and face outward. I was never bothered by the size of it. Hope this helps!

jrm116 Posted July 1, 2014 Author #4 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Another question... Is deck 5 loud? Can you hear what's going on above you on deck 6? I've noticed how the rooms seems to be right under the theatre, restaurants, atrium, etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjkacmom Posted July 1, 2014 #5 Share Posted July 1, 2014 I wouldn't book guarantee unless you don't mind that the cabins might be far from each other. The balconies are small, but I'd rather have a small one than none at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jrm116 Posted July 1, 2014 Author #7 Share Posted July 1, 2014 I think I will try and save a little and go for the ocean view. They are on deck 5 and they seem to be right below the dinning room(s) and other busy areas? For those that sailed, could you notice the noise of being under busy public areas? Also, not a big deal but is there a reason the first deck is deck 5? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
susanbratwurst Posted July 2, 2014 #8 Share Posted July 2, 2014 We have 9878 booked on getaway in August. Did you stay in this cabin? If so can you comment if the angle facing forward was problematic with wind while at sea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so can you comment if the angle facing forward was problematic with wind while at sea? We had a forward facing angle, and I didn't notice wind. I would have noticed if the air was completely still though, because I like a breeze, and I didn't notice stillness either. I didn't think about it one way or another, so it must not have been windy. We were deck 13. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since your in the same cabin as me before me can you please takes photos especially the balcony. I would greatly appreciate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
