vtgumby Posted August 12, 2017 #1 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Hi. Does anyone have direct experience with any noise on the 8th floor above the Spinnaker lounge? Love the aft and have done the 9th floor with that gorgeous cushion of cabins above and below but wouldn't mind trying another level so if you've been STAR aft over the Spinnaker please advise. Naturally it would seem we're opening ourselves to noise but perhaps not (or rather hoping not?) so we thought we'd go to our past cruisers for their experiences. THANKS!

deniseatnycs Posted August 12, 2017 #4 Share Posted August 12, 2017 We had the aft balcony deck 8 on the Star last Christmas and New Year. Fabulous cruise (even with the Azipod issue) but marred by the noise, from the Spinnaker (it was moved from when we first booked). Gave us a few Comp speciality dinners but needed a rest when we got home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iKarenE Posted August 25, 2017 #6 Share Posted August 25, 2017 we just booked an aft cabin on deck 8 for a panama canal cruise. It was the only aft balcony left. Is the noise that bad at night that you would change to port or starboard balcony? Are the vires for 14 days worth the noise at night? We don't go to bed too early and usually keep the TV on, thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We didn't see much of her that cruise. But, we all had a fantastic time! The views really are fantastic and you can smell the bread baking. I gained about 5 pounds just from the aromas.

scorpioncrawl Posted August 26, 2017 #8 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Go to GOOGLE-type in Aft Balconies Norwegian Star and read PLENTY of reviews! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iKarenE Posted September 2, 2017 #9 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Thanks for the input, after reading the reviews of the 8th deck aft balcony rooms over the Spinnaker we changed ours. I figured spending all that money and then having to deal with the noise at night would take away from our experience. We now have a port side balcony and the money saved will pay for our airfare with some leftover for excursions! Now I can look forward to the cruise and not worry if I made the wrong decision! Thanks for the advice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the advice! Now take the saving's and buy a thermal spa pass $139 . The lounger's in the spa have floor to ceiling full aft. view window's on deck 11.
