Cabin 12253 · Allure of the Seas

Cabin 12253 is a Central Park View Balcony on Allure of the Seas, 182 to 193 square feet plus a private balcony of 50 to 52 square feet.

Cabin 12253 is a Central Park View Balcony on Deck 12 of Allure of the Seas, midship. This is the steady part of the ship. When it gets lumpy, midship is where you want to be. We score it 9 out of 10 for steadiness, which puts it among the calmest rooms on the ship.

It is 6 cabins along the corridor to the aft lift bank. Close enough to be useful, far enough that it should not keep you awake. The aft lift bank on deck 12. Worth knowing: the highest of the aft cabin lobbies, with the AquaTheater below and the Windjammer above. Quiet comes out at 6 out of 10, roughly par for this ship. For getting about, 7 out of 10.

Counting from the bow, it is the 91st cabin position of 181 along Deck 12. You are about as central as the corridor gets, so it is a similar walk whichever way you turn out of your door.

A Central Park View Balcony gives you 182-193 square feet. The balcony adds another 50-52 on top of that. A balcony buys you outside space of your own and, on sea days, somewhere to sit that is not the pool deck. It is the step up most people make, and the one they find hardest to give up again.

On loyalty, this is a standard grade, so Crown and Anchor credits its base one cruise point a night. There are exactly two ways to double that: move up to a suite, or sail on your own on a double occupancy fare. Either pays two a night, and doing both pays three. Checked against the line's own published terms on 8 September 2026.

Against the rest of the ship it is as steady in a swell as any cabin on the ship. It suits travellers prone to seasickness. It is a poor fit for anyone who wakes when a door closes.
