Peggy13 Posted August 17, 2017 #1 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Thinking of booking the Symphony out of either Rome or Barcelona for next year. Trying to decide on type of cabin - oceanview balcony or boardwalk view. We've always had an oceanview; never been on this class of ship before, but thinking since its so port intensive - might try a boardwalk view cabin towards the aft (instead of balcony). Any thoughts? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruzeluver Posted August 17, 2017 #2 Share Posted August 17, 2017 We will be experiencing our first boardwalk balcony stateroom in October on Oasis. After having read multiple threads on CC regarding this topic, the overwhelming recommendation was to book as far aft as possible in order to get at least a partial ocean view. We were able to snag one nearly all the way aft (only one further aft of our's). We are excited to try something new, and the cost savings vs. a standard ocean view balcony were significant.

Clarea Posted August 17, 2017 #3 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Oceanview balcony for us. Very few indoor venues around the ship with an outside view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racerxspeedy Posted August 17, 2017 #4 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Go with the Ocean view. We have tried boardwalk and Central Park balconies and did not enjoy them nearly as much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my most humble and sincere opinion, being your first time Oasis Class on a Med port intensive cruise, I feel that you should choose a different class of ship in order to enjoy the number one goal, which is the itinerary,..unless you're planning to miss ports and stay on board (such a huge waste in the Med in my humble opinion) I see you're from Jersey, so I feel that you should consider booking Symphony when she gets to the Caribbean where the ship is the #1 destination and you can enjoy so much more time on board with sea days, etc. Most CC'ers agree 7 days on Oasis is barely enough to see everything, let alone when you're in Livorno and Rome from 7am-7pm.
