The last time we were on the Grand, we stayed in the Vista Suite, E733, which is a next-door neighbor to E729. There is definitely more movement there in the aft compared with cabins just a little more mid-ship like E700. We've had aft suites on other ships and not felt as much movement as the Grand tends to have. The suite was incredible and I love the Grand, but for the movement and loud creaking noises, we'd never book on the aft again on that particular ship. E729 is a great cabin. I was surprised that there were mini-suites on the Emerald Deck, as all the others are on the Dolphin Deck. The balcony looked to be the same size as the Dolphin Deck minis, as we stayed in one of them on the previous cruise. The benefit of being in the back of the ship is that you have a lot less passenger traffic noise. If you prefer to hear less of the ship's creaking and moaning and much less movement, go for a more mid-ship location.
