Merriem Posted August 10, 2014 #1 Share Posted August 10, 2014 (edited) Have not been on Oceania since they had just the Regatta. I am wondering about the PH cabins, as we are booked in a PH3 and it looks like there could be a lot of noise from the cafe above. Previously we were in what would now be a PH 1 and there was morning noise putting deck chairs out very early. I would like a couple of suggestions on recommended cabins on that deck. Thank you for your comments. We have time to change, and do not want a lot of noise. Edited August 10, 2014 by Merriem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare PaulMCO Posted August 10, 2014 #3 Share Posted August 10, 2014 We just came off Nautica and in stateroom 8052. We heard the food carts in the AM (setup) and in the evening (10pm cleanup). Not too disturbing but noticeable. It is pot luck as to what side of the kitchen they use. Previous Nautica in 8059 it was definitely noticeable in the AM.

I was reading some comments online about that group of cabins, and think I will have my TA move us! as we are light sleepers and that will not work. Appreciate it.

LaCroisiereS'amuse Posted August 10, 2014 #6 Share Posted August 10, 2014 Never had an issue in 8040 or 8032...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merriem Posted August 10, 2014 Author #7 Share Posted August 10, 2014 I had it changed to 8011. Thanks for the assistance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TKS Posted August 11, 2014 #8 Share Posted August 11, 2014 We housed in 8006 the last time we sailed. I was initially concerned regarding elevator/stairway noise, connecting room and noise from above. We heard nothing, except one night when the neighbors were having a somewhat loud conversation, but would have likely heard that under any circumstances. That cabin had the additional advantage of just a quick walk up the stairs to the spa hot tub (DH went nearly every night to enjoy the stars), which is accessible to PH cruisers. I would happily book it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mura Posted August 11, 2014 #10 Share Posted August 11, 2014 We were in 8004 on Nautica when it was brand new -- not even a month old. Our experience was the same. No noise problem at all. Mura Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cotto22 Posted August 11, 2014 #11 Share Posted August 11, 2014 We will be in 8005 on Insignia in October. Thanks for the reassurance about the staircase/elevator, and the hint about the spa hot tub. Can't wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ronrick1943 Posted August 11, 2014 #12 Share Posted August 11, 2014 We were in 11083 on the Marina and yes you do hear it above-not bad put you hear it. Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanandJim Posted August 12, 2014 #13 Share Posted August 12, 2014 We were in 11083 on the Marina and yes you do hear it above-not bad put you hear it.Rick A lot of this depends on your fellow passengers. We've had that same cabin on the Marina and on some cruises we never heard a whisper of noise, so it might just have been Ron & Ricks' bad luck that they were sailing with a rowdy group. From a noise perspective, Deck 8 on the R ships is fairly well designed. There are Officers Cabins below the Fitness Center, for example, and there are so many Lounge chairs, that they are seldom moved around on the Pool Deck, above.

Paulchili Posted August 12, 2014 #14 Share Posted August 12, 2014 , and there are so many Lounge chairs, that they are seldom moved around on the Pool Deck, above. Do they move them when it rains (to protect them)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanandJim Posted August 12, 2014 #15 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Do they move them when it rains (to protect them)? They do not. Only the mattresses are removed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pacheco18 Posted August 12, 2014 #16 Share Posted August 12, 2014 I have seen all the lounges moved and stacked up in high winds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LHT28 Posted August 12, 2014 #17 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Do they move them when it rains (to protect them)? They do move them in the evenings & stack them under the overhang Then put them back out in the morning yes I have seen them move them when it rains ..it is a mad scramble to get them under cover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
