jax Posted July 23, 2005 #1 Share Posted July 23, 2005 I have been on the Diamond which had the most divine private balconies in the lower cabins. My next trip was on the Navigator. Just loved the room but very disappointed in the semi-private balcony. There were open spaces at the top and on the bottom of the walls/partitions that separated the adjoining balconies. Now have booked a wonderful trip for next year aboard the Voyager. will I find the same semi-private balcony (H category) as on the Navigator?

jhp Posted July 23, 2005 #2 Share Posted July 23, 2005 The balconies on the Voyager, unfortunately, are even less private than the Navigator. The gap is a little wider, and goes around all four sides rather than just three like the Navigator. Those balconies on the Diamond were perfect!

dougburns Posted July 24, 2005 #3 Share Posted July 24, 2005 Never have had a problem with the balconies on Voyager. They're a bit more private than Mariner(less gap) and about the same as Navigator. Not as private as Diamond though. Of course, we don't go out on the balcony in our birthday suit either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jax Posted July 24, 2005 Author #4 Share Posted July 24, 2005 It is the noise level coming from the semi-private balconies that is so annoying. you feel like you are right in the middle of their conversations, comaradrie, music etc. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wendy The Wanderer Posted July 26, 2005 #6 Share Posted July 26, 2005 jax, maybe you just had noisy neighbours? I'm thinking that the unspoken protocol would be to speak quietly, so that others can enjoy themselves, but I guess that, just like the neighbours across the fence in the back yard, once in a while you get someone who thinks he's more important and wants to be heard by the whole world? :o Just a thought--I haven't travelled on Voyager yet, will next summer, so I'm hoping I get quiet neighbours!

hrprof Posted July 26, 2005 #7 Share Posted July 26, 2005 How about cigar smokers as neighbors??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlsbadSally Posted July 26, 2005 #8 Share Posted July 26, 2005 If you are interested in the "C" category, book the room we just had- 877 or 878, which is on the end and has a large balcony, with a neighbor only on one side! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jax Posted July 26, 2005 Author #9 Share Posted July 26, 2005 You all weren't bothered by any vibrations in the aft cabin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoAnne B Posted July 31, 2005 #10 Share Posted July 31, 2005 hrprof Yes, I had a smoker next to me on the Voyager crossing, and it often drove me inside. I'd go out with a glass of wine and just get settled in, and out he'd come with his cigar. So much for the clean ocean air. Fortunately, RSSC does a great job of protecting those of us who are very medically sensitive to smoke, so I didn't let it spoil my experience.
