Jimbo Posted April 17, 2022 #6 Share Posted April 17, 2022 (edited) You don't want a cabin where the black marks are, they are davits that hold up the life boats, in between the black marks is the cabins you want where you will see out to the ocean over top the top of the lifeboats, do take note from these deck 6 cabins you will not be able to look straight down to the ocean. http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd112/robtulipe/Cruise/AnthemDavits_zpspxq9dqmo.jpg Edited April 17, 2022 by Jimbo 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And 6310 is VERY obstructed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artvlay Posted April 18, 2022 Author #8 Share Posted April 18, 2022 Thank you for the advice. I selected cabin 6198. its away from the davits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LivLove2Cruise Posted April 18, 2022 #9 Share Posted April 18, 2022 I just got off the Anthem on Sunday. We had 6560 which is considered an obstructed view. There really no obstruction unless you look right (AFT). The davit blocks your view. Here is a youtube video of 6160 (obstructed View). We had the same cabin the other side. I would book this room again. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seba1 Posted April 18, 2022 #10 Share Posted April 18, 2022 We had 6288 several years ago. It wasn't bad, but we don't mind looking over the lifeboats. Here are some images. We actually booked this same cabin again and the one next to it for an upcoming cruise. With only 2 days at sea we thought we would save money on cabins since we wouldn't use the balcony much. Happy to just be able to open the door and get fresh air and some water views. PS - This had a slightly larger balcony too. Stephanie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have 6560 booked for September (chosen on the basis of comments by posters on earlier threads) so it's good to have confirmation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ridge4 Posted April 18, 2022 #12 Share Posted April 18, 2022 We have 6258 for an upcoming sailing on Anthem May 2nd. Other sources say this is one of the least obstructed, and I like the box shape rather than the rectangular shape. I will report back once on board. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am jealous as I saw some fabulous prices for the crossing but the flights home were way too expensive if I did a last minute booking. Enjoy😃 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ridge4 Posted May 4, 2022 #21 Share Posted May 4, 2022 More Anthem 6258. Room is a box shape rather than a rectangular shape. I feel I can move around better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ridge4 Posted May 4, 2022 #22 Share Posted May 4, 2022 The shower is larger than a regular balcony cabin that a rectangular shape. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunshine3601 Posted May 4, 2022 #23 Share Posted May 4, 2022 I have been in one of these cabins on other side. Hardly any obstruction from lifeboat unless you want to look straight down to water.. The larger shower is always nice. I liked having the extra window like JS have. I thought I would miss the sofa but didn't miss at all. How is the weather for your crossing?

artvlay Posted May 6, 2022 Author #24 Share Posted May 6, 2022 So I take from your enthusiasm I should switch to this cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do know anything about the one you booked but we did enjoy these square cabins. If you view Post #6 chart of obstructed cabins, you will see small davits for these particular cabins that is because there are smaller life boats not the full size lifeboats that go with the full size davits on the chart. If one of these cabins is available you may want to switch. As you can see from photos above, you get more space than the rectangular cabins but only get a chair instead of a sofa (which was just fine by us).
