Boardwalk Balcony

[lovelife]

Here is a photo from the balcony of Oasis 11703.  You can look across and back to the location you are considering.  The xx27 cabins appear to be beyond the slides, but I can't confirm that.

We booked before the announcement of the Abyss on HOTS...blocked the view we were hoping for originally.

Small cabins compared to what we were used to on RCI.

 

I believe Harmony was christened with the Abyss

We did the short Harmony inaugural sailing out of Port Everglades and I am pretty sure that Abyss was already there.

Yes I believe the Harmony and Symphony were built with them.   It has since been added to the Oasis and was supposed to be added to the Allure.   We loved the Allure and think our boys will really like the Boardwalk view.   I appreciate all of the information.

I "said" we booked when the booking "first" opened for HOTS..."before" the surprise of the Abyss was

officially announced !! It was then we and other's realized that it would indeed impact the views from

those very aft Boardwalk Balconies. I had gotten such incredible prices for those we decided to 

give it a try.

Of course it was...but that wasn't my point in the info we knew when we booked.

This was allure 12729 (Jan 2020) prior going into amp. The kids watch the aqua theatre from there every night and loved it. Not sure about the abyss in the way though.

For us, if we are on a cruise, we prefer a view of the ocean.  .... where you can sit without a mask.

8729 on Symphony of the Seas with the Ultimate Abyss “Obstruction”. 

These room are listed as partially or fully obstructed... but I still like them because it obstruct your view of the room directly across from you... however, the obstruction is minimal towards the aqua theater... The black tarp you see in the picture was part of the show “Hiro” because it is used in one of the scene so I don’t think it will be on Oasis since that element isn’t part of the show on Oasis. I had the same room on Oasis and they didn’t have a black tarp going across for the show. It’s the balcony with the Halloween decorations since it was a Halloween cruise.  Also keep in mind that the slide curves closer on Deck 9 so Decks 9 would be the most obstructed when it comes to view of the Aquatheater... Not sure about Deck 10. Deck 11 and higher, the slide is pretty far away BUT you are also higher up and further away from the action going on so it comes down to how good your vision is.

I ended up booking 10327 and family member booked 10325 so we will have those 2 rooms together.  Thanks for all the advice and pictures.
