K922 Posted November 19, 2017 #1 Share Posted November 19, 2017 Me and my friend are moving the date of our Bermuda cruise and planning to switch to aft balcony. We will be sailing in escape and I was wondering if people would recommend level 15, 14, or 13. I know everyone has there own opinions just looking for people thoughts. Thanks in advance Karen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeBTN Posted November 19, 2017 #2 Share Posted November 19, 2017 I’d pick 9 or 12, if available, as they have the deepest balconies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Two Wheels Only Posted November 19, 2017 #3 Share Posted November 19, 2017 If the aft-facing choices are 15, 14, or 13, I'd take 14. Deck 15 is right under the Garden Cafe. Deck 13 is the least deep aft-facing deck. For depth, the order is 9, 12, 15, (11&14 are nearly identical), 10, 13. Keep in mind that there are differences in width for some B1 balconies on each deck. There are also different bed locations (bed-near-balcony or sofa near balcony) for aft-facing balconies. My personal choice would be deck 12 with bed-near-balcony (12308, for ex.). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keith00200 Posted November 19, 2017 #4 Share Posted November 19, 2017 I stayed in 12308, which is next to a corner haven suite. The balcony was gigantic and the bed was on the balcony side of the room, which we prefer. Enjoy your cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K922 Posted November 19, 2017 Author #5 Share Posted November 19, 2017 Would cabins on the other floors in the same location be the same set up? Ex 13308 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyclops32 Posted November 20, 2017 #6 Share Posted November 20, 2017 I was in 15280 and never noticed noise from above. It was nice to have the buffet one level up. The balcony was large enough for me. Could sit in lounger and still walk around it. Those who complain about chairs from above must be very light sleepers Sent from my SM-G955U using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ultramax12 Posted January 21, 2018 #7 Share Posted January 21, 2018 How do you determine if the bed is near the balcony? Thank you If the aft-facing choices are 15, 14, or 13, I'd take 14.

Two Wheels Only Posted January 21, 2018 #8 Share Posted January 21, 2018 How do you determine if the bed is near the balcony? Thank you It's a combination of photos and reviews from others as well as what I have seen/photographed. The Escape deckplan doesn't help. In fact, the BA/GA deckplan (which shows the indent) has a few errors so even then, pictures/reviews are important. I don't have every stateroom memorized but I have a list. Feel free to ask about a particular stateroom. Someone will give you an answer and possibly pictures/video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sand and Seas Posted January 21, 2018 #13 Share Posted January 21, 2018 We loved our Aft balcony on deck 12. Huge balcony and a good view of the wake. (Better than a lower deck view.) It seems like this deck sells out first so you have to grab one if they are available. We really loved the location of our Large Balcony (B6) on Deck 9. It is close to get to The District and lots of other great venues plus has a great Large Balcony to enjoy. So easy to go down one floor and pick up drinks to enjoy on your balcony. And if you want a huge balcony, look at the Mini-Suites with Large Balcony (M6). Excellent location and an awesome balcony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iluvdisney4 Posted September 24, 2018 #14 Share Posted September 24, 2018 Ugh! You have 15286 in red with the word narrowest. What does this mean? Also noise level and what does depth of cabin mean. I bid an upgrade and this is my assigned cabin so I can't change it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Two Wheels Only Posted September 25, 2018 #15 Share Posted September 25, 2018 (edited) Ugh! You have 15286 in red with the word narrowest. What does this mean? Also noise level and what does depth of cabin mean. I bid an upgrade and this is my assigned cabin so I can't change it. The HC balcony next door eats into some of your balcony width. Depth refers to the depth of the balcony which varies by deck. Also, 14 is slightly deeper than 11. I've adjusted my list since I originally posted.

gmazz Posted September 25, 2018 #19 Share Posted September 25, 2018 We were in 9920 in June and the balcony was huge! We had the bed by the balcony and there were 2 lounge chairs, 2 regular chairs and the little table. Plenty of room to spare out there! Loved this location to.

molole Posted September 25, 2018 #20 Share Posted September 25, 2018 Which aft balcony would you pick for a Panama Canal sailing? I am thinking 9 for a lower angle and more close up view? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayfromBNA Posted May 21, 2019 #21 Share Posted May 21, 2019 The cabin assignment fairy has granted us 14302 on an upcoming Escape Bermuda sailing (from balcony guarantee!). I'm very, very happy to have this cabin. My traveling companion sleeps light. Wondering from others who have sailed in aft facing rooms on 13/14/15 if you can hear much out of Spice H2O at night during the parties? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bliss, Escape, Joy, and Encore are 9, 12, 15, 14, 11, 10, 13 from deepest to least deep. I've updated the order since posting in 2017. The stateroom numbers aren't exactly the same for the ships within the class but the physical locations and configurations are the same. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shidah Posted June 19, 2019 #25 Share Posted June 19, 2019 On your list, is configuration B the one with the larger shower that looks out to the balcony? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
