Here is some general thoughts when looking at the Navigator for cabin selection.
The standard cabin is almost identical to the cabins on the the Seven Seas Voyager. Large bathroom, full size bathtub and a separate shower and walk in closet. Very comfortable cabins. Some cabins on the starboard side have an intermittent “pump†noise. Not a big issue, not loud but it is there about every thirty minutes or so for about 15 seconds. However, unless you want the starboard side for the best views on a particular cruise I suggest port side.
LAUNDRY ROOMS ON DECKS 5, 8, 9, 11
Be careful to not be right next door the dryers do go beep beep all the time although they close the rooms down at 10:00 pm they are open early in the morning.
TWO UNIQUE CABINS ON DECK 6: 600 – No balcony – category E and 601 with balcony – category D. Lay out of the cabins inside is the same. They are priced one category up due to their size. Bedroom and Living area divided by piece of furniture and curtains. The TV swivels between the bedroom and living area. Very oversized – great space and design a bargain. The balcony on 601 is almost twice the size of the other balconies. These cabins sell quickly although they are very far forward and there is a lot of anchor noise when they drop the anchor.
STARTING IN 2006 THE CABINS CATEGORIES ARE CHANGING. IF YOU ARE LOOKING AT MATERIALS OR DECK PLANS FROM 2005 BE AWARE THAT CATEGORY F ON DECK 6 IS NOW CATEGORY E. THE CATEGORY F IS NOW THE CABINS THAT USED TO BE D1 AND C1. BELOW ARE THE CORRECT CABIN CATEGORIES STARTING IN 2006.
Navigator Suites.
Great layout. Two completely separate rooms. Oversized tub which is great. Two TV’s. Sectional couch. Very comfortable cabin. I have sailed in these a few times and have not had any problem with noise from the pool deck above. I really like this cabin.
