Aft cabin on getaway - deck 11 vs. 14?

[garnet115]

I really like the deck 14 convenience to pool, buffet, etc. but am concerned about noise from H20 at night. Is it a problem? Thoughts on this are appreciated. Thanks!

I would go with 11 myself. . . for that reason.

Thanks. Have you stayed aft and had noise issues?

We had aft on 9. You do hear noise from the ship but it's a soothing noise. You also hear the wake. Even on 9 we could hear the parties at spice H2O on occasion.

Can anyone who has been on recently confirm whether noise is a major problem on deck 14? I remember seeing lots of complaints about it when Breakaway first launched, but not anything recently.

Had a cabin on 13 aft, and on the night of the Glow Party, it was really loud at a late time. All other nights we hardly heard anything. I'm guessing on deck 14 it will a bit louder on that particular night. Bring some earplugs and you should be fine.

Thanks. As you can tell, I am really trying to talk myself into deck 14. I'm not so worried about the noise for myself, but my dd can be be kind of sensitive about it. If it's just one night that's bad, then it's not a big deal. If it's going to be every night, then I would definitely go for the lower deck.

If DD will have issues if she's kept up because of the noise, I would always err on the side of caution. Last thing you want is a cranky, over tired kid on your hands....

We were on 11 on the Breakaway and we hardly heard anything at night. One other thing to consider is the balcony size. 14 will be bigger than the regular side balconies, but 11 will make the ones on 14 look small.

Went with 11308. Thanks for the input. Now I am giddy with excitement. Don't know how I will contain myself until Feb! I am going to keep it a surprise for my dd.

Just booked an inside cabin at level 14 before I found this thread!!! :confused:

 

Would appreciate if someone could confirm the noise level - aft cabin at Deck 14.

 

I am a bit worried about the noise from the buffet area every morning too.

I stayed in a deck 14 balcony cabin under the buffet area on the Breakaway last summer and did not have any noise problems. On this thread I was specifically worried about noise at the aft during Spice H20 parties at night. To be on the safe side I went with deck 11, but I don't think deck 14 is necessarily bad.

Thank you, garnet115.

 

We booked two rooms 14625 and 14627 and first thought it should be a convenient location as they are near the elevators. Just wonder if the doors will be opened to the interior corridors or the hallway.

 

Thanks.

I believe that the open to the interior corridor, not the main hallway.

Also remember the lower the deck in the aft the bigger the balcony. We always try for 9 as our first choice!

We had 12 aft corner. HUGE balcony, very quiet. The only sound was the aft wake. Nice.

We'll be in 12906 on the Breakaway this summer. Glad to hear the noise wasn't much of an issue down there. We can't wait!

Thanks again, Garnet115!

That means our rooms are right across each other.

I was thinking 9 but really like the fact that I can access my balcony from our bedroom. Plus I also read that the bedroom is also a bit bigger? :rolleyes:

I have pored over TONS of pictures and videos of the aft suites and definitely like the deck 11 and 14 configuration far better. First, I love the second door to the balcony from the bedroom. Second, the bedroom is bigger, with a slightly smaller bathroom. I'd far rather have the space and light in the bedroom than the bath.
