Wind Issues?: None Connecting Cabin? Where Does it Connect?: No Hammock: Yes Metal/Glass Terrace: Glass Advantages/Problems: Door to hallway has to slam to shut all the way. Would You Book Again?: Yes probably Comments: The 3 person configuration includes a bed that drops from the ceiling and then splits the lower bed into two. The ceiling bed was an uncomfortable mattress and that person chose to sleep in the hammock most of the time (note that the outside noise was light enough where it was easy to sleep out there).

Wind Issues?: None Connecting Cabin? Where Does it Connect?: No Hammock: Yes Metal/Glass Terrace: Glass Advantages/Problems: Door to hallway has to slam to shut all the way. Would You Book Again?: Yes, probably Comments: Overall good room location. TV port is very hard to access and is nowhere near an accessible outlet, so setting up a fire stick is not feasible. Ship: Valiant Lady Cabin#: 14030Z Deck #: 14 Cabin Category: Central Sea Terrace Sleeps: 4 (we had 2) Cabin Location: Aft Terrace/Window/Obstruction: None Noise Issues?: You can hear loud scratching of chairs from the galley above, especially annoying when they are presumably cleaning the floor in the wee hours of the morning and when you are trying to sleep in while the galley is hopping late morning. Wind Issues?: None Connecting Cabin? Where Does it Connect?: No Hammock: Yes Metal/Glass Terrace: Glass Advantages/Problems: Great location to aft elevators that are less busy than the others, easy to grab coffee in the morning and head back to your room. Would You Book Again?: Yes Comments: We were in this room for 3 weeks straight (B2B with one leg as the transatlantic) and had no issues with storage during our voyage. TV is close enough to an outlet and the port is accessible so you can use a firestick for streaming. We did have really bad weather at one point and the room was rocking hard and is at a point where it shudders as (I presume) the stabilizers kick in.

_tacocat_ Posted March 3, 2023 #27 Share Posted March 3, 2023 11330A (Scarlet Lady) Not bothering to write a whole other post because all the other attributes are the same as other XLs I've stayed in, but there was one difference. This XL is a 3-person cabin, so it has the extra bed that converts between ottoman and bed. In the 2 other 3-person XLs I've stayed in, I've liked this setup because it give a good daytime seat while not taking up a ton of floorspace. In all other XLs, this ottoman thing has been in lieu of a separate chair. Cabin 11330A had both the ottoman and the chair. The chair just takes up space and isn't actually functional, as it's squashed between the ottoman and the closet by default. Plopping it in the middle of the room would take up most of the floor space. I'm not sure if you can ask to remove it, but it was pretty annoying to have to climb over the chair to get things out of the closet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was really nice spending time out there, my friend who was with me enjoyed sitting at the end and being able to look down the entire length of the ship.

Wind Issues?: None Connecting Cabin? Where Does it Connect?: No Hammock: Yes Metal/Glass Terrace: Metal Advantages/Problems: Noise see above, but overall 8 can be nice with a quick stroll down to 7.

LoKay Posted May 16, 2023 #33 Share Posted May 16, 2023 Ship: Valiant Lady Cabin#: 14245Z Deck #:14 Cabin Category: Brilliant Suite Sleeps: 4 Cabin Location: Starboard Forward Terrace/Window/Obstruction: None Noise Issues?: Cabin is under the pool deck so when pool parties are going on the base can be loud in the cabin Wind Issues?: none Connecting Cabin? Where Does it Connect?: no Hammock: Yes Metal/Glass Terrace: Glass Advantages/Problems: The noise from the pool deck is only noticeable during parties-not sure how loud it would have been during Scarlet Night since weather had Scarlet Night moved inside. Would You Book Again?: We didn’t book this category but were surprisingly upgraded 4 days before sailing. We had no idea we had been upgraded until we noticed on our app that our deck and cabin number had changed. We had originally booked a Seriously Suite. Comments: The bathroom layout was awesome. The cabin was big and we loved having the double sliders to the balcony. The bed was very comfortable. Our cabin stewards (Mahesh and Agnes) and our Rock Star agent (GuGu) were amazing! We loved the convenience of popping up to the Galley for breakfast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aqlollipop Posted June 1, 2023 #35 Share Posted June 1, 2023 Ship: Scarlet Lady Cabin#: 8338A Deck #: 8 Cabin Category: XL Sea Terrace Sleeps: 3 Cabin Location: Forward Port Terrace/Window/Obstruction: None Noise Issues?: Yep. This room is indeed above the Red Room, and more crucially, directly across the hall from the door the techs use to access the Red Room and most of the noise seems to come from there. Honestly, the Red Room shows wrap up by 11 or a bit after, we didn't really experience any day time rehearsal loudness. But if you are an early to bed person, who is very sensitive to sound, this is not the room for you. It's not super loud, but you can definitely hear it. Like you're sitting at a traffic light and someone pulls up next to you with their music blaring and bass thumping. It's there, but it's not necessarily intrusive, and the further into the room you go (away from the door) the less and less noisy it is. The loudest music we heard turned out to be a fellow passenger with their own speaker on their balcony. We thought it was RR but when we went into the hall it was quiet. Wind Issues?: None Connecting Cabin? Where Does it Connect?: No Hammock: Yes Metal/Glass Terrace: Glass Advantages/Problems: Disadvantages: obviously the noise as described above, also when coming into port, vibrations can be seriously ridiculous. I had experienced vibrations in an aft cabin on deck 11 but nothing like what we had coming into Bimini in this cabin. I thought it was going to shake me right out of bed. Advantages: the advantages of deck 8 are the very close proximity to the active decks 7 & 6. No need to wait for an elevator! Easy to pop back to the room with minimal fuss! Another advantage, is that at least for the XL cabins, the balcony is bigger. It's longer than the regular balconies and sticks out a bit below them and above the public deck. Probably an extra 1-2 ft of deck space. Would You Book Again?: No, I wouldn't choose this cabin Comments: We had a great cruise and the disadvantages of the cabin didn't spoil anything for us, but it's not a cabin I would choose if I had a choice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where Does it Connect?: No Hammock: Yes Metal/Glass Terrace: Glass Advantages/Problems: Close but not too close to the elevators, This cabin had the bed headboard and bathroom on the right wall, which I prefer (since I sleep on the right side of the bed).

Where Does it Connect?: N/A Hammock: N/A Metal/Glass Terrace: N/A Advantages/Problems: Very cozy and compact little cabin, nice for one person on a budget. Would You Book Again?: Yes Comments: I specifically requested and received a cabin with the headboard and bathroom on the right side. The only issue I had was with packing at the end of the cruise; there was no place I could stage my suitcase and leave it there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KPookey Posted August 11, 2023 #38 Share Posted August 11, 2023 Ship: Scarlet Lady Cabin#: 10030A Deck #: 10 Cabin Category: Sea Terrace Sleeps: 2 Cabin Location: Aft, close to aft elevators and stairs Terrace/Window/Obstruction: None Noise Issues?: None Wind Issues?: None Connecting Cabin? Where Does it Connect?: No Hammock: Yes Metal/Glass Terrace: Glass Advantages/Problems: It's quiet, you can see the edge of the Dock, if you step to edge and look the lifeboats are below and to the right, they don’t obscure view. Quick access to The Dock and Wake and Galley, but aft is not central to most of the ship, you will walk a lot. Deck 10 is a good choice though. We had no motion issues. Also, location is close to aft elevators and stairs which are not highly utilized. Would You Book Again?: sea terrace, yes!!! This cabin wouldn’t be first choice though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shep_Proudfoot Posted September 8, 2023 #41 Share Posted September 8, 2023 Ship: Valiant Lady Cabin#: 11322A Deck #: 11 Cabin Category: Sea Terrace XL Sleeps: 2 Cabin Location: Forward, close to forward elevators and stairs Terrace/Window/Obstruction: None Noise Issues?: None Wind Issues?: None Connecting Cabin? Where Does it Connect?: No Hammock: Yes Metal/Glass Terrace: Glass Advantages/Problems: Very quiet, ambulatory aids in toilet room and shower make the shower a bit cramped if not actually needed, sliding glass door is partly off track and slightly hard to lock. Bed is positioned by sliding glass door and there isn’t much room at the foot of the bed to get around it. Seating arrangements and design are odd but nothing unique to this cabin. Overall, clean and in good shape but probably would not book again by choice due to presence of shower bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noise Issues?: No Wind Issues?: No Connecting Cabin? Where Does it Connect?: No Hammock: Yes Metal/Glass Terrace: Glass Advantages/Problems: Loved being close to the aft stairs. Just one deck down to the Dock Would You Book Again?: In a heartbeat. Comments: We loved the cabin and it's location, and have 2 more sailings booked close by. I appreciate the information on this cabin as well as cabin #8042A above. Did either of these two cabins have the bed by the window? We are RCCL/Celebrity cruisers and I can usually tell with them, this is our first VV cruise and haven't been able to figure out tell if the bed is by balcony or bathroom.

Rare crusinthrough Posted November 11, 2023 Author #44 Share Posted November 11, 2023 (edited) Finally able to add a room review Ship: Scarlet Lady Cabin#: 11322 Z Deck #: 11 Cabin Category: Sea Terrace XL Sleeps: 2 (I think) Bed is by the closet. The room next door to the right, which I believe is 11318, the bed is by the balcony. Bed location probably varies every other room. Cabin Location: (Port, Starboard, Forward, Aft): Starboard / Forward Terrace/Window/Obstruction: None Noise Issues?: None Wind Issues?: None Connecting Cabin? Where Does it Connect?: No Hammock: Yes ( I think all the cabins have hammocks now. When I looked up from outside I saw hammocks on all balconies). Metal/Glass Terrace: Glass Advantages/Problems: Forward elevators are used the least Would You Book Again?: Yes Comments: Most venues are mid ship or aft. Forward cabins are a bit of a walk but wasn't an issue. I mostly used deck 6 or deck 7 to walk forward to aft vs walking past cabins to the mid ship elevators. The room is not far from the elevators, which I liked. Edited November 11, 2023 by crusinthrough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where Does it Connect?: None Hammock: Yes Metal/Glass Terrace: Glass Advantages/Problems: The balcony is a bit visible to the dock Would You Book Again?: Definitely! Comments: You get a view of either side of the ship while at port which is a big advantage. The large terrace with the lounge chairs is great. With the door closed you don't hear any normal sound from The Dock. One afternoon there was a performer we could hear just a little bit with the door closed. The only "weird" part is that you might have line of sight with people hanging around the railing of the dock through the portal window in the shower. With the film put on the window you can't really see through it from The Dock during the day, but it's possible you could make eye contact with someone at night. I'm throwing in a picture taken from roughly eye height (5'11"). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connecting Cabin? Where Does it Connect?: none Hammock: Yes Metal/Glass Terrace: Glass Advantages/Problems: with no covering on the porthole in the shower, you’ll get morning sun which isn’t conducive to trying to sleep in Would You Book Again?: Yes Comments: Overall we liked the cabin, though it was a little small for a suite.

Where Does it Connect?: None Hammock: Yes Metal/Glass Terrace: Glass Advantages/Problems: Close to forward elevator and stairs, which is convenient for Richard’s Rooftop. Not a bad walk and one flight up to The Galley Would You Book Again?: Yes Comments: Our rainfall shower head was more of a trickle. Marble shower floor felt treacherous when wet. Turntable not really usable because of bad wow and flutter. Great amount of space and wonderful views from bed, we liked the location a lot. We were pleasantly surprised that party music from 15 was not an issue this far forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare crusinthrough Posted April 3 Author #50 Share Posted April 3 Ship: Valiant Lady Cabin#: 9102Z Deck #:9 Cabin Category: Sea Terrace Sleeps: 2 Terrace/Window/Obstruction: None Noise Issues?: None Wind Issues?: None Connecting Cabin? Where Does it Connect?: No Hammock: Yes Metal/Glass Terrace: Glass Advantages/Problems: First room after the Central Sea Terrace on deck plan. Quick walk to mid ship or aft elevators. Would You Book Again?: No Comments: I read somewhere the balcony was a little bigger due to the angle, which prompted me to book this room. The extra square footage on the balcony wasn't noticeable. The view looking down to the right was obstructed by the life boats. Due to the view I wouldn't book this room again. The room should be included in the "Limited View" category. The last picture is standing on the balcony. On the "Z" side, when in port your view is another ship. I prefer seeing the port and will book the "A" side in the future. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
