Rare crusinthrough Posted March 19, 2016 #326 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Are Central Park balcony cabins fairly quiet if sitting outside? We normally sail in OV balconies , but may be booking (and paying for) three cabins, so watching prices as well. Considering Jan. 2018 - a long way off still! You can definitely hear the noise and music from the pool deck. You don't hear much noise inside your room with the door closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had a CP balcony on Allure and it was nice to sit out on the balcony and listen to the music playing on the pool deck, IMO. I am not much of a reader, so it did no bother me in any way.

cruiseturbo Posted March 20, 2016 #328 Share Posted March 20, 2016 We had a Central Park balcony on Allure and we found it was noisier than anticipated. We could hear the music from the pool deck which was very loud at times and also could hear the kids screaming and having a good time at the kids pool area. Early in the morning and later at night it was wonderfully quiet and fun to watch people come and go. The lights and the Central Park birds or crickets sounds they pipe in were great too! However if we wanted to take a nap during the day, even with the door shut I still heard the pool noise. We would not pass up the opportunity to sail if that was what was available and what we could afford that trip, however we would prefer an Oceanview balcony if possible.

Considering Jan. 2018 - a long way off still!My daughter and I sailed on the Oasis in our first CP balcony about 6 weeks ago, and we loved it. Have another one booked on the Harmony for Feb 2017 and Feb 2018. There were a few times that we closed the balcony door to reduce the noise from the pool deck at nap time, but over all, we really enjoyed our balcony. We sat out there to play Scrabble and cards, and to listen to the violin/piano duo who played almost every night. I loved to see all the greenery day and night. We were on deck 10. The pool noise might be louder on a higher deck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrcruiser Posted March 22, 2016 #330 Share Posted March 22, 2016 I noticed the Running Track on Deck 5. Wow, I like that. I have not sailed on Oasis Class before so this concept of not having a congested small one on one of the top decks is new to me. Does anyone know the length of it or how many times around equals a mile? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone know the length of it or how many times around equals a mile? It's fantastic. No deck chairs and people in the way and you're mostly out of the sun. There's even stretching stations and a water fountain!! Bob answered your question about the miles - I only know the kilometres [emoji5] 7 laps = 5 km Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thetoolman Posted April 30, 2016 #342 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Should we be able to book spa appointments for August cruises on the Harmony yet? I am able to book specialty dining, drink and internet packages, but not spa appointments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am able to book specialty dining, drink and internet packages, but not spa appointments. There's no set time for the various bookings to open, and they can all open at different times.

Does anyone know if harmony has got the traditional way of dining with a MDR?No Dynamic Dining on Harmony--Traditional MDR and My Time Dining. What is head liner show please. Is comedy night normally good I have been told to email about two weeks in advance for head liner info. That still doesn't guarantee who will be there when you sail. I got all excited to see Nestor Torres (a fabulous flutist) when we were on the Oasis this past February. He wasn't there, and nobody could tell me why. I always make reservations, and wait till we sail to find out. I'm not a fan of stand up comedy, so I can't vouch for those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
