Somebody told me boardwalk balcony staterooms comes with perks is this true, and if so, what are the perks? I was on the Allure- Boardwalk balcony- farthest from the Aquatheater. It was great-close to elevators and not noisy but we weren't in the room much and had late dinner and entertainment times. 6 months later my parents (who also stayed next to me) went on the Allure again but stayed closer to the Aquatheater and said it was more noisy! Going on Harmony in a few weeks and booked the same location as the first time on Allure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somebody told me boardwalk balcony staterooms comes with perks is this true, and if so, what are the perks? Forgot to say it was deck 11! The Boardwalk perks- I think- are only if you book with the deal. We booked at a much lower rate than when "the deal of Johnny Rockets " came out. We are 2 adults so this wouldn't have saved us anything but if you have children you should price it all out...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilkySal Posted March 14, 2018 #7 Share Posted March 14, 2018 We usually book the Boardwalk balcony rooms on Deck 8 (same deck as Central Park Cafe) for easier access to the Park Cafe for my morning caramel macchiato!!:hearteyes: We also try to get the farthest AFT cabin closest to the aqua theater and enjoying watching the shows from our private balcony! Noise from the theater is over by 10pm, so, unless you go to bed before that, noise won't be an issue. Also love being able to see the ocean wake in the back!!;) Deck 8 is well located for anything!!:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another thing I noticed on the deck plans was there is a bathroom located close to the elevators so no worries if someone is using the cabin bathroom, not far to go, LOL!

Rare silentbob007 Posted March 15, 2018 #10 Share Posted March 15, 2018 I've stayed in about 4 boardwalk balconies ... generally about midway down the boardwalk. You get some noise during shows. If your balcony door is shut it will be muffled, but there is a little bit of bleed-through. Sometimes they play movies in the evening ... at that point, it depends on the movie. You do have to remember that there are people in cabins across from you and walking below you, so you make the mistake of heading to your balcony sans clothes only ones. You generally will want to keep the curtains drawn when changing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruisinpickle Posted March 15, 2018 #13 Share Posted March 15, 2018 We are staying in a Boardwalk stateroom in June on the Symphony. Does anyone know if it is possible to upgrade from the soda package to the refreshment package? Or do you just have to pay the full price?

katiel53 Posted March 15, 2018 #16 Share Posted March 15, 2018 We have stayed in Boardwalk balconies twice on Allure. I loved the people watching from the balcony. The first time we were on deck 12 and the 2nd cabin from the aft. We had great views of Ocean Aria and the ocean itself. The only drawback was the long walk to the elevator. The 2nd time we were the 2nd cabin with the Boardwalk balcony from the elevator. We were on deck 11 and we were able to see Ocean Aria etc. but the view wasn't as good as the first time. We are going on Allure this summer for the 4th time, but the 3rd time in a Boardwalk balcony. The one other cruise we had on Allure was in an ocean view balcony and that is what we usually get on a cruise. I find on Allure though that I really like the Boardwalk balcony. I think it's because it's different from all the other cruises we have sailed. I have purchased the alcohol package and it is kind of a waste of the soda package as soda is free with the alcohol package. There is, of course, no refund of the soda cost as I really didn't pay for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
