AZDENNY Posted July 31, 2007 #1 Share Posted July 31, 2007 I just booked Southern Caribbean cruise for 01/17/09 on the Serenade for my 50th B-day and choose a JS (#1602). I have heard these are wonderful cabins especially since they have larger balconies. Is the motion of the ship going to be worse in this cabin or do I have little or nothing to worry about.

critterchick Posted July 31, 2007 #2 Share Posted July 31, 2007 Little or nothing. We love those cabins. If you want a sneak preview of your balcony, click on the link in my signature - we had 1602 on Serenade. 1100 on Radiance is identical on the inside, for pictures of the interior. Happy sailing!

cb at sea Posted July 31, 2007 #3 Share Posted July 31, 2007 Actually, it depends on how sensitive to motion you are! While we never felt any major swaying or "up and down" motion, we did have quite a bit of vibration. Didn't notice it during the day, but while lying in bed....Well, it got a tad annoying at times.

GF2045Cruiser Posted August 1, 2007 #4 Share Posted August 1, 2007 We had an AFT last year on Mariner - felt no movement, but I didn't like the cabin, couldn't see where the ship was headed - drove me crazy! Plus did get some soot on the balcony at times. Plus did not look down onto water directly below us. This year we are booked in a side balcony. Pros of Aft: Larger balcony, a bit larger cabin (JS) and in our case on that particular cruise, no detectible ship movement. Enjoy!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OleMissMom Posted August 1, 2007 #5 Share Posted August 1, 2007 We absolutely love the aft balconies. We have had them on the Radiance and the Jewel. And we've booked 1602 on the Radiance for Hawaii in 2008!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladylawyer Posted August 1, 2007 #6 Share Posted August 1, 2007 We had 1602 on the Radiance (same class as Serenade). It's a fabulous cabin with an incredibly huge balcony. We hosted the sailaway party - 20+ people and plenty of room! We had some rough seas and the motion was never bad. The only drawback is that reeeeeeeeeeeally long walk to everything. I considered it to be an excuse to have dessert! :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
