Creator's Key Takeaways

I hate this room. I've hit my head so many times

We have tried an aft balcony cabin for the first time.

It was actually lovely and very peaceful just to have super big balcony

it is an obstructed view. So, if you don't want an obstructed view, be mindful of that.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Be aware of headroom issues with Pullman beds if you are tall
βœ“Block the motion-activated nightlight sensor if you are light sensitive
βœ“Close curtains completely to block light from the ship's exterior
βœ“Be prepared for noise from ship operations if staying in an aft cabin

Ever wondered if the "Aft View" hype is real? Join us as we walk through our aft-facing balcony stateroom on Explorer of the Seas. The balcony was huge compared to standard balcony rooms we've stayed in, but it was an obstructed view. We discuss some challenges we had in this cabin at the end. #exploreroftheseas #royalcarribean #royalcaribbeancruise #cabintour #cruiseship Timestamps: 00:00 Intro & Cabin Tour 03:26 Cabin Review If you found this tour helpful, please hit the Like button and Subscribe for more content!
