Cabin 8695 is a Boardwalk View Balcony on Deck 8 of Allure of the Seas, aft of midship. There is some movement here, more than midship and a good deal less than the ends. Most people never think about it. We score it 7 out of 10 for steadiness.

You are 3 cabins from Dazzles. Close enough to be useful, far enough that it should not keep you awake. Dazzles, the two deck lounge aft on deck 8. Worth knowing: live music and dancing most evenings. The room carries up through deck 9, so cabins beside it on either deck hear the same band. Quiet scores 4 out of 10. There is enough going on nearby that a light sleeper should think about it. For getting about, 8 out of 10.

Of the 171 cabin positions on Deck 8, this is the 127th from forward. You share Deck 8 with Vintages, Coach and the Art Gallery, Bar and Park Cafe. There are 329 cabins along this deck, so the corridor is a long walk end to end.

The Boardwalk View Balcony grade runs 182-193 square feet. The balcony adds another 47-52 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 noisier than three quarters of the 2,887 cabins on board and better placed for getting around than 88 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.
