Thanks for the advise. We're doing the 12 day British Isles so we should stay close to the coasts so, hopefully it will be smooth sailing.

hope you do not have rough seas. We recently completed a 7 day cruise in a window suite aboard the Caribbean Princess....loved the room until the 2nd night when the seas acted up... loud almost screaming sounds and banging noise...we thought either the casino slot machines on the deck above us had come loose or some teens were having a skate board contest on the promenade over our heads....after 5 nights enduring this we were told by the front desk that we were over the stabilizers and there was nothing anyone could do to reduce the noise !!!! It was so loud we had to yell to one another....

 

what a bummer... In over 30 cruises on many different lines this was the best suite ever. Loved the arrangement, space, bathroom, and even the location. BUT never again unless we know for sure the seas will be calm. This ruled out the Pacific Northwest cruise we booked our first day as the window suites were the only ones we wanted. Too bad!

 

We've had window suites twice and have a third one booked. The first time was a cruise to Hawaii and we experienced the loud noise most of the cruise. The stabilizers caused the room to shudder as well. The second time was a 10 day cruise to Mexico and we never heard any noise at all even though the seas weren't especially calm. I have to think the stabilizers by themselves aren't enough to cause the noise. It may be the direction of the current relative to the ship.
