Cabin 12594 · Star of the Seas

Cabin 12594 is an Ocean View Balcony on Star of the Seas, 182 to 198 square feet plus a private balcony of 42 to 55 square feet.

Cabin 12594 is an Ocean View Balcony on Deck 12 of Star of the Seas. You are forward of midship. You will feel a bit more motion than a midship cabin. Nothing dramatic. We score it 7 out of 10 for steadiness.

It is 8 cabins along the corridor to the forward lift bank. Close enough to be useful, far enough that it should not keep you awake. The forward lift and stair lobby on deck 12. Star uses destination control: you choose your deck at the panel outside and it tells you which car to take, so there are no buttons inside the cars. The lobby is also the main stair landing for this end of the ship. Worth knowing: destination control panels are outside the lift, not inside it. Cabins immediately beside a lobby hear doors and voices at every hour, and the lobbies are busiest just after a show finishes. Quiet comes out at 6 out of 10, roughly par for this ship. For getting about, 8 out of 10.

Counting from the bow, it is the 71st cabin position of 311 along Deck 12. Deck 12 also has Vitality Spa on it. There are 349 cabins along this deck, so the corridor is a long walk end to end.

An Ocean View Balcony gives you 182-198 square feet. The balcony adds another 42-55 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 better placed for getting around than 98 per cent of them. It suits families running back to the cabin several times a day. It is a poor fit for anyone who wakes when a door closes.
