Cabin 8713 · Symphony of the Seas

Cabin 8713 is a Boardwalk View Balcony on Symphony of the Seas, 182 to 193 square feet plus a private balcony of 47 to 52 square feet.

Cabin 8713 is a Boardwalk View Balcony on Deck 8 of Symphony of the Seas, and it sits well aft. Out at this end you feel the sea. In rough water the movement here is noticeably stronger. We score it 6 out of 10 for steadiness.

The nearest is Bar, and that is 15 cabins away down the corridor. Quiet, at the cost of a few minutes each way. A bar at the aft end of Central Park. Worth knowing: moderate. The park closes down early compared with the Boardwalk. Quiet comes out at 8 out of 10, roughly par for this ship. For getting about, 5 out of 10.

Of the 179 cabin positions on Deck 8, this is the 152nd from forward. You share Deck 8 with Central Park, Vintages, Central Park Retail and Bar. 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.

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 quieter than 87 per cent of the 2,798 cabins on board and further from the action than most. It suits light sleepers.
