thesawch Posted December 12, 2010 #1 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Just wondering if anyone has stayed on the forward Main deck or forward Riviera deck on the Liberty.There is a great price for a cruise and I get the option of either deck.I was on the Liberty before and stayed on deck 8 and never been down that far so any thoughts would be appreciated.Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly333 Posted December 12, 2010 #2 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Mid deck has less motion, but that being said, unless its under the galley, its half a dozen of one, 6 of the other. Lots of elevator time, one deck more of less wouldnt matter. Just pick one and enjoy. All the way aft, there will be a vibration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMSACE6 Posted December 12, 2010 #3 Share Posted December 12, 2010 I was on Main deck on the Freedom in September ( same class of ship, identical deck plans ). I had a forward 1a, porthole room. The only motion I noticed on some nights was a gentle rocking. I actually liked it, like being rocked to sleep, gently. this only a couple of nights though and otherwise noticed nothing unpleasant motion wise. You could hear the waves hitting the bow when seas were a little high, but again, for me at least nothing that bothered me. Last year on the Liberty I was on Riviera deck, but towards the back ( which some say you notice the motion there as well ) That time there was no or very little noticeable motion, and also very quiet. The Liberty is a great ship by the way, whichever you choose, have a great cruise!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hlb76 Posted December 13, 2010 #4 Share Posted December 13, 2010 I was on main (mid ship) last year. I had no issues. We never had real long waits for the elevator dining room was just a couple of floors up. I think either way you will have fun. If your not super impressed w/ your room go find something fun to do!!

gliner Posted December 13, 2010 #6 Share Posted December 13, 2010 Riviera for sure. Cabin 1205 if you can get it. Very quiet and our cabin steward was the best! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been directly under the galley on Main Deck on three cruises, soon to be four, and have never heard a peep. Where as if you're forward on Riviera, you may have issues hearing the anchor and such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was the jan 30 th cruise if I can remember.And i see your cruising the same time asus again but differant ship. cool!! Yes we sailed that same cruise. Had a great time as well! It was our first 7 day and for now we just can't go back to the 5 day. I'm sureyou will ahve a great time on her again. Too bad Butch is gone. I really liked him but maybe it was cuz we where both from Minnesota. Guess great minds think alike when sailing. We found great rates on flights and the cruise on Splendor. Plus we where ready for something different. Let's hope Mexico is as nice as the Caribbean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare nbsjcruiser Posted December 14, 2010 #10 Share Posted December 14, 2010 Just wondering if anyone has stayed on the forward Main deck or forward Riviera deck on the Liberty.There is a great price for a cruise and I get the option of either deck.I was on the Liberty before and stayed on deck 8 and never been down that far so any thoughts would be appreciated.Thanks We stayed on the Main deck balcony room on the Valor and loved it. I was a bit apprehensive because I thought we'd hear lots of noise from the Lido Deck but that wasn't the case. It was nice to be able to walk out of your room and right on to the Lido deck. I wouldn't hesitate a minute to take that room on the Liberty as they are identical ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where as if you're forward on Riviera, you may have issues hearing the anchor and such. Others under the kitchen have all complained. You are the first one who didnt hear anything .. Im not talking about the dining room, just the kitchen itself. Im thinking you were not directly under the kitchen or not in your cabin then when they were cooking.

j603 Posted January 10, 2011 #16 Share Posted January 10, 2011 I am going to be in a 1a with port holes on the Main deck in February and if it is anything like my Disney cruise, I will sleep great. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
