PAFC2004 Posted April 16, 2017 #1 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Hi all. Apologies if this has been answered. I searched but could not find anything. I'm looking to book a balcony GTY on the Harmony for June. I was just wondering if there were any obstructed views. Location does not bother me. I have previously sailed on the Oasis and cannot recall finding any information about obstructed views on her. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken at the beach Posted April 16, 2017 #2 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Only the Boardwalk balconies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken at the beach Posted April 16, 2017 #4 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Sorry...Not exactly true...all the forward facing cabins on decks 11-7 also have obstructed views....check your deck plan OP Except that the OP asked specifically about balconies. Those forward facing cabins are Oceanview cabins...not balconies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice catch...so sorry about the specific question details asked by the OP :o I was just on HOTS and we had the last four aft Boardwalk cabins on deck #9...hated the Abyss and what it has done to those views.

We were on the week before you. Deck 12, third and fourth from the back. We never done that much time on the balcony so it didn't bother us but it certainly did block the ocean view. What got me was the difference in noise between Harmony and Allure. Did love the new cabin design though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's just me but I don't care for the Quantum interior like design...some good things but....I'll take my usual JS with walkin closet and nightstands that are bigger than a sliver....JMHO.

PAFC2004 Posted April 19, 2017 Author #8 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Thanks for the replies everyone. I should have specified ocean view balcony as that's the GTY I'm looking to book. Location isn't that important to me, so the only thing that would be a let down would be an obstructed view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ja2012 Posted April 21, 2017 #10 Share Posted April 21, 2017 How are the lifeboats with a balcony? How noticeable are they with an OV balcony? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted April 21, 2017 #11 Share Posted April 21, 2017 How are the lifeboats with a balcony? How noticeable are they with an OV balcony? Hardly noticible. If you lean way over the edge of the balcony, you may lose 1 degree of downward view because of the lifeboat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
