tring Posted June 17, 2019 #1 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Looking at a rear balcony cabin on Arcadia. Can anyone advise me if there is a lot of vibration in that location? Have managed with a slight, regular vibration, but we were on one ship when it was irregular - becoming more and less pronounced in a cycle lasting no more than a couple of minutes and drove me mad.

Arcadia is powered by azipods which should significantly reduce vibration, it's a while since we were on her and I have no memory of whether she had any vibration. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were on her maiden voyage and there was unusual vibration then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike11 Posted June 18, 2019 #4 Share Posted June 18, 2019 We’ve been on the back on B deck and for no vibration. However, last summer we were on E deck and the vibration was significant when we were travelling at 20 or so knots (the whole cabin shook). As others have said, this shouldn’t really happen with azipods, but it did! We wouldn’t book E deck again, but C deck or above should be fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wowzz Posted June 18, 2019 #5 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Seem to remember a certain amount of vibration when sitting right at the stern in the restaurant. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crompton21 Posted June 18, 2019 #6 Share Posted June 18, 2019 We stayed in E185, by far and away the noisiest rattliest lack of sleepiest cruise that we have ever done. As others have said, possibly better higher up, E deck was an awful experience. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see that is a corner suite, so must have cost you a bit as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazwag Posted June 18, 2019 #8 Share Posted June 18, 2019 We are just back from a balcony cabin on the rear port side right by the lifts on C deck - zero vibration, although some people did comment about vibration on the starboard side on that deck at the back. Only noise was a distant very low ping from the lifts 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorpio41 Posted June 18, 2019 #9 Share Posted June 18, 2019 B167 stern cabin starboard side in May was fine. No vibration. Great cabin steward too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Selbourne Posted June 18, 2019 #10 Share Posted June 18, 2019 We had a corner wrap suite deck B aft on Arcadia and had no vibration, unlike Britannia where our F deck corner wrap suite vibrated excessively causing numerous rattles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with that, she certainly vibrates and grinds aft in the MDR with a bit of a sea running. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
