beardedladies Posted October 18, 2022 #1776 Share Posted October 18, 2022 I am surprised they've teased with this - as an area it looks awful. I could have bought into a quiet infinity pool to relax and enjoy the aft view, but with the kids play area in the mix it's not anywhere I'd want to relax. And the view just won't be of interest to the kids. Plus the whole space looks oddly crowded even without people. And if those are suites to either side, enjoy the screaming and splashing noises all day! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorseVikings Posted October 18, 2022 #1777 Share Posted October 18, 2022 My guess is that all the aft suites will be marketed towards families, and the giant aft suite is probably the ultimate family suite. Because of this being the new family area, thats why they moved the non-family oriented suites to the front. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks as thought the Boardwalk area will truly be a family area on this class ship. I also agree that the suites or staterooms in this area will be geared more towards family. From the photos that I have seen it looks as though there will be a dedicated suites area located just behind the Aquadome. This is also Royal Caribbean and not Celebrity so one has to expect the major focus will be more towards family. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My initial thoughts are putting children near glass railings doesn’t seem too clever to me🤷♀️ Wonder if RCI are reading the room on this… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beardedladies Posted October 18, 2022 #1784 Share Posted October 18, 2022 And what's the betting on those cabins/suites not actually having easy access to that area? I wouldn't be surprised if you'd need to walk a third of the way back up the ship to go down stairs and then back to the aft again 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OfTheSeasCruiser Posted October 18, 2022 #1787 Share Posted October 18, 2022 Royal’s professional designers have had 5 years to think through these concepts. Why don’t we all wait and see the rest of the reveal before judgement… 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure they will unveil places for adults to hide. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As there are no cabins on this deck, the deck plan wasn’t available to view as part of the test load.
