Crown Princess Vista suite..Caribe or Emerald deck ???

[Shippy]

They are on the back of the ship but the deck plans make them look a bit different.

Anyone with firsthand knowledge....which would you take ??

thanks

Most will say Caribe, as there's cabins above and below versus Emerald with Vista Lounge right below..

Us - Emerald as it's a quick flight of stairs up/down to Promenade deck, etc. We've never had any noise from Vista Lounge, but then, we're night owls, and at the lounge when things are happening.

We've had the starboard Emerald deck Vista suite over the club several times on other Grand Class ships (and the Dolphin one too), and it's been fine as far as noise. Those are our favorite cabins with the aft view and a bit of side view as well. Love the covered balcony, and only one neighbor.  No hallway noise. Super convenient down to aft dining room and up to buffet, and as mentioned the Promenade. 

 

Wouldn't book the port side Emerald though with all the reports of speaker noise.

If we're lucky enough to have a location choice for booking an aft-facing VS, we will always pick one that has a cabin both above us and below. Less chance for any unwanted noise issues from any public or crew areas.

The Vista Suite balconies are a bit smaller on the Emerald deck versus the Dolphin deck.
