Right side of ship.  NO noise from above or below.  Sun 2/3 days at sea is on your side of the balcony ;)  Larger than expected.  TV shows disney movies 24-7.  Bed was extremely comfortable.  Plenty of outlets to charge devices.  curtain divider between main bed and couch/bunk area.  Bunk pulls out of the ceiling and is lowered at night by the housekeeper.  Couch becomes a bed as well.  If you have 3 with you they will utilize the couch as your 4rd bed.  We had 4 so they pulled the bunk out of the ceiling for our kids.  Balcony has a solid divider on the right and a semi-solid divider to the left with a 6" gap on the base.

Snorkeling was great for my wife and 2 kids.  They loved it and are better swimmers than I.  The skiff boats drop you off midway between Castaway Key and Abaco Island on top of a shallow reef (12-6 ft deep appx).   I would guess 1.5 miles from both islands.  Strong current pulled snorkelers away from anchored boats.  I had somewhat of a panic attack and couldn't breathe very well through the mouthpiece so I decided to hop back on the boat and keep an eye on my kids to make sure they didn't get pulled too far from the boats.  They did great and there were 3 crew per boat - One of them was in the water with the snorkelers making sure they didn't venture too far.  We probably spent 45 mins-1 hr on the reef before making our way to the natural sandbar which was worth every penny paid.  I have never seen water so clear in my life.  We saw a sea turtle that was 2- 2.5 feet wide swimming around near us!  Kids found some huge shells/conches/sand dollars...some live some empty.  You can NOT bring shells back with you on the boat past the xray unit.  They will confiscate them and toss them back into the ocean.  Other than my mild panic attack being so far from shore, it was fantastic.  Tons of colorful fish and large ones too (think mini barracuda/bottlenose looking fish as well as saltwater nemo/dory type fish. They did tell me that there were 5-6 foot shark in the deeper adjacent waters but not where we were.  It is very easy to tell shallow from deeper/dark water since it is so clear.

Nothing much to say about Canaveral port other than a very easy time boarding the ship.  Pack swimtrunks in luggage since you wont get luggage till 4-6pm.  No need for towels as there are plenty on the ship.

My kids are a bit older and showed no interest in character meet and greets but I will tell you that we saw more roaming characters and more opportunities for character pics on the ship than we ever have seen at a Disney theme park.Middle of boat saw no rocking/seasickness.
