Deck layout and review

Review of Adventure Of The Seas deck 11 (Lido-Pools-Cabins)

The fore-located “Peek-A-Boo Bridge Overlook” is an outdoor (roof-covered) bow-facing viewing area with slanted windows from where the Navigation Bridge (on deck 10 below) and its activities can be seen. This deck plan feature is available on all Voyager-class ships. There is a sign “Please do not bang or tap on the windows” – so don’t do it – it’s annoying to the bridge personnel on duty. To access the Peek-a-Boo Bridge, go through the Solarium complex, exit at its outside sliding doors (fore-end) and walk forward on the outdoor deck. It is also visible from the Gym’s front.

A spiral staircase leads to the upper level (ShipShape Spa).

In the mornings/afternoons are scheduled health and wellness seminars (free of charge).
