hunt182644 Posted March 22, 2014 #1 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Looking at the VB aft verandah cabins on the Noordam for a Caribbean cruise next year. Would appreciate any opinions on these cabins on decks,4,5,6 or 7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkacruiser Posted March 22, 2014 #2 Share Posted March 22, 2014 I had a SC on Deck 6 aft aboard the Westerdam, a sister to the Noordam. The only issue I had with this location was some soot from the funnels. The Cabin Steward did cleaning out on ther veranda, but there was still minor amounts of soot as the day wemt along. I put the cushions for the chairs that I was using in the cabin after each use and I would wipe the table prior to Room Service's arrival, if I was going to dine on the veranda. The issue was minor and would not deter me from booking such a location again. One major advantage to that location--if it is important to you--it is sufficiently dark enough at that location that one can easily see the glory, beauty of the night sky!

jtl513 Posted March 22, 2014 #3 Share Posted March 22, 2014 (edited) We once had Noordam 4178. Pro: 11 foot deep balcony, with a lounger. Con: lots of heavy vibration many nights, but not always. Also, I did not like having only a rearward view - I like to be able to look forward. I suggest deck 7 to get as far as possible from possible vibrations.

OVgirl Posted March 22, 2014 #4 Share Posted March 22, 2014 We were also on deck 4 in 4179. We like the extra depth of this verandah compared to the higher ones. Also gives you some sun and some shade. But yes, you are facing backwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pstata Posted March 27, 2014 #6 Share Posted March 27, 2014 We had 5187 on the Zuiderdam. No vibration. Chose an aft on Noordam, same deck. Really enjoy the large verandah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeaBands Posted March 27, 2014 #7 Share Posted March 27, 2014 when choosing an aft balcony cabin. No scraping noise from Lido and high enough to get a great view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
