lovablekendra Posted July 23, 2014 #1 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Hi I'm going on the allure of the seas for the first time cruising ever! We're going for our honey moon we are leaving August 31st of this year we have room 11728 which I see is in the very back of the ship! Has anyone ever stayed in this room what are your thoughts and is the boat more rocky or do you feel the motion more in the back of the ship?

racerxspeedy Posted July 23, 2014 #2 Share Posted July 23, 2014 We are on the same cruise front of the ship. We stayed at the rear of the ship last trip with no motion issues. I have been following all of the threads and have not heard any concerns with added motion in these rooms. If there is a big storm you will feel it everywhere on deck 11. This ship is amazing and very stable. Relax and Enjoy your Honeymoon!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Hello and welcome to cruising :D Well you have certainly picked the largest ship in the world to start your cruising experience and it was actually the first ship my daughter sailed on and she has been bitten by the cruising bug ever since. You will love Allure, there is so much to see and do on her and my favourite place is Central Park where you can sit, in the middle of the ocean, in a tree lined outdoor seating area, sipping a coffee and listening to bird song - how special is that! As far as your cabin is concerned I have never had an aft cabin so not sure I can help you but I know many people covet aft cabins and say they are amazing. So again not sure about how much movement you get but I would imagine it will be more than say the mid part of the ship. However, Allure is so big it might not be so bad but I hope someone can advise you about that. Anyway, enjoy every moment of your honeymoon and being on board such a beautiful ship :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akcruz Posted July 23, 2014 #4 Share Posted July 23, 2014 We were on deck 12 aft last year, about 4 cabins from the back, and didn't feel any more motion that we have felt other times. Enjoy your trip, and congratulations on the upcoming wedding! As others have said you will love Allure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestfieldTraveler Posted July 23, 2014 #5 Share Posted July 23, 2014 You`ll have great access to the *secret* balcony area via a door almost across from your cabin door, which is a great spot for sail-aways and watching the aqua theater shows from. Search this forum for secret balcony for more info. Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLACRUISER99 Posted July 23, 2014 #6 Share Posted July 23, 2014 I have 11728 across the hall booked for Jan 2016 on Oasis and I'm not a bit concerned about motion! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvtravel88 Posted July 23, 2014 #7 Share Posted July 23, 2014 (edited) Just take some dramamine or bonine with you just in case. You wouldn't want to be sick. If you decide to take it, buy the less drowsy kind and take it at night before going to bed. We have found that the front of any ship has the most motion. The middle of the ship has the least and the aft will have some, but not as much as the front. Have a wonderful trip!

Sat1 Posted July 23, 2014 #8 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Remember, those old wooden ships, like in 1800's. The captain's room was in the stern, much smoother. Yes he was able to reach the helm faster, also. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiseDude_83 Posted July 23, 2014 #9 Share Posted July 23, 2014 We Sailed Oasis (sister ship) in the same cabin but 2 decks higher. We did not have any issues with motion and it was a great room and location. It also gives you quick access to the secret balcony area overlooking the aqua theater.

Rare LMaxwell Posted July 23, 2014 #10 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Ginger Gum and Bonine if worried about sea sickness, though you will probably be ok in that location. Dramamine will wipe you out. Near secret aft balcony, check it out for sure. Have fun. Some Favorites for us; Solarium Bistro or Park Cafe for Breakfast Main Dining Room or Wipeout Cafe for lunch (or snack plus soft server at Wipeout). Windjammer tends to get very crowded on this ship.

Tweety63 Posted July 29, 2014 #15 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Just off the Allure yesterday and spent sail always and Aqua Theater shows on that "secret" aft balcony on 11. Each time we had the whole place to ourselves:) Also our stateroom was aft on deck 8 and really no significant motion; just enough to lull you to sleep! Congratulations and enjoy the Allure! Lady A is a beautiful ship..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisinlover1414 Posted July 29, 2014 #16 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Have an awesome time! Allure is my favorite ship and is a lot of fun! You will not feel the ship at all on Allure, unless there is bad weather. I was on the allure 3 weeks ago; we had bad weather, and the ship was a bit rocky, but it was not a big deal. Have a great time!! :) Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ocean_Waves Posted July 29, 2014 #17 Share Posted July 29, 2014 The motion depends on how many honeymooners are on the ship for that sailing! :D:D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joand452 Posted July 31, 2014 #19 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Congrats and best wishes on your upcoming wedding! Allure is wonderful! A few more don't misses: cooked-to-order breakfast at Johnny Rockets (free; Boardwalk); look through all the "Small Wonders" placed throughout the ship. Some look like small silver binoculars (I do remember one on the Royal Promenade) and others look like upside-down brass telescopes (one near the casino). And, of course, take a ride on the Rising Tide Bar! Have a wonderful cruise!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
