Cabin 6196 · Allure of the Seas

Cabin 6196 is an Ocean View with Large Balcony (category B) on Allure of the Seas, 195 square feet plus a private balcony of 39 square feet.

Cabin 6196 is an Ocean View with Large Balcony on Deck 6 of Allure of the Seas, midship. That is about as close to the ship's pivot point as you can get, and in a swell you will feel it less here than anywhere else on board. We score it 9 out of 10 for steadiness, which puts it among the calmest rooms on the ship.

On the ship's plan Solera is on the deck below, about 1 cabin along from you. A deck between you takes most of the noise out of it, and it is a short trip when you want it. Quiet scores 5 out of 10. There is enough going on nearby that a light sleeper should think about it. For getting about, 6 out of 10.

Counting from the bow, it is the 80th cabin position of 214 along Deck 6. Deck 6 also has Vitality at Sea Spa and Fitness Center, Schooner Bar, Boardwalk Donuts and Boardwalk Dog House on it. There are 237 cabins along this deck, so the corridor is a fairly ordinary length.

An Ocean View with Large Balcony gives you 195 square feet. The balcony adds another 39 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.

Worth knowing before you book: Crown and Anchor pays one cruise point a night at this grade. A suite pays two, and so does sailing solo on a double occupancy fare, which is the cheaper of the two routes if you are travelling alone anyway. Checked against the line's own published terms on 8 September 2026.

Against the rest of the ship it is noisier than three quarters of the 2,887 cabins on board, as steady in a swell as any cabin on the ship and further from the action than most. It suits travellers prone to seasickness. It is a poor fit for anyone who wakes when a door closes.
