ilenekm Posted September 10, 2018 #4 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Was it a problem having the pool chairs above the room? Sent from my iPhone using Forums We were in 1605 on the other side of the ship and didnt hear the chairs. If that is not available, on the Equinox, the rooms on the aft half of the ship have cabins above them, so no pool noise. My father is really sensitive to noise so he refused Aqua because of the pool/Oceanview Cafe on the Summit but loved it on the Equinox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minidonuts85 Posted September 10, 2018 #5 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Was it a problem having the pool chairs above the room? Sent from my iPhone using Forums Not at all. We heard the occasional "chair drag" or bump but that was all. I'm a light sleeper and was never woken up by the chair noise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any input on what is a better a aqua cabin is appreciated Sent from my iPhone using Forums Funny you should ask.. For a trip last month I had 1547 booked because of the larger balcony and, after reading comments on here, "dropped" to an aqua2, 1548 to be exact. Because of the timing of my downgrade I had to pay a little extra, but figured it'd be worth it. I'd experienced an S1 under the ledge on Reflection and realized that for me, unhindered view up to the sun during the day and stars at night is important. After reading reviews on here I took the time to notice that 1547 is similarly placed. I took some pics, but can't locate them at the moment. (will post when/if i find them).While 1548 is wide open, 1550 has a good part of its balcony covered by overhang--that's where it starts. So, with your choice being 1545/1547 and both likely to have some of the overhang, you might be better off with the larger balcony just realizing that you won't have full sun/sky right in front of you. The presence of the equipment hasn't really been an issue for me, but could be a deal breaker for others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duanerice1 Posted September 10, 2018 #7 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Our favorite cabin is 1552 which is the same cabin as 1547 but the other side of the ship. It has the overhang and large balcony. We pick it every time we sail Aqua. There is never any noise at least on that side of the ship. enjoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any input on what is a better a aqua cabin is appreciated We were in 1545 last summer, and it was fine. The "obstruction" was the window washing equipment next door. No big deal. The extra large balcony more than made up for it. It was a really quiet cabin, and we had a great cruise! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdnich Posted September 10, 2018 Author #9 Share Posted September 10, 2018 After doing a lot of research today and reading all of the comments (lots of quick research)we decided to go with 1605 . Got a larger deck and knowing that the loungers above are in the shaded area which never seem to be too busy with movement. After having an SS underneath the ocean view café we just don’t want to hear the scraping of the chairs!! Just booked our first B2B we already had the cruise before booked in 1665 with are BFFs next-door for a 50th birthday! Just decided last night that we didn’t want to get off LOL! now we’re trying to decide if we’re going to tell them that we’re staying on board[emoji38] Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuddyR Posted September 11, 2018 #12 Share Posted September 11, 2018 We had 1547 on the Equinox a couple of weeks ago. The balcony was huge and the location near the forward elevators was great. The obstruction is very minor. The window washing equipment is actually parked in front of the adjacent cabin 1549. You had to be standing or sitting at least halfway toward the balcony railing and looking left (aft) to even notice the equipment. I loved the balcony for the size and shade and would not hesitate to book it again! Laura Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deano68 Posted September 12, 2018 #13 Share Posted September 12, 2018 We are currently on equinox now in aqua and I would suggest you definitely go with the port side (odd numbered) cabins. We are in an even numbered cabin and anything from 1500 to approx 1520 gets the reverberation of people running on the treadmills in the gym through the roof of your cabin, bathroom and balcony. We were woken at 5am the other morning by it with the gym not due to open until 6. Keep away from the starboard side under the gym. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mbrust Posted July 29, 2022 #16 Share Posted July 29, 2022 We just book 1547 on the Solsitce . Just checking if anyone sure that the bed is first on entering. Don't care for the coach first as table in front of it makes moving around ackward. Know 1552 across the hall is the oppisite confirguration so hope they go everyother one like the balconies. like the balconies do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, 1547 has the bed close to the bath while 1552 has the bed by the balcony. Edited July 31, 2022 by NantahalaCruiser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
