Bed near the balcony.

Thank you!!

I know this has likely been discussed in another thread, but I am having a difficult time searching.  I am looking for the bed placement for 12329.  Can anyone help?

thanks.

They really shouldn't have rolled this out until it's fully functional. I can't access my cruise planner on here :(

Me either! In fact, I can't see anything about my upcoming cruise except the date, ship and stateroom #. Not even details on remaining balance, etc.

Any experiences to share? We are interested in it as well.

Thanks for letting us follow along!

My brother is on Equinox with his wife. I talked them into going to Chacchoben. We got no answers from the shore side information line. I called the ship and asked to be connected to their room. The operator told me that they were involved in the accident, but that she had no further information about their condition. I'm on hold with the shore side office now, trying to find out about their status. Please pray.

Prayers going up.

Can't wait to read your review!

I'm really enjoying your review!

Il Lugano! We stayed once pre-cruise. Best bell captain. Lots of good advice on bars and restaurants in the area. And great happy hours along water. Live music later in evening, all within walking distance. Interesting place as it is home to many people in their condos.

Thanks! I booked Il Lugano!

I would go with the Il Lugano location! It is a far more interesting area than the 17th Street area. Just my opinion.

Thank you! I think s that's what I'll do!

After researching some more, the Renaissance near the port also has availability and similar pricing, however, its reviews are as good as the RI Intracoastal. Struggling a bit with this decision!

The area is great! The area is considered "North Beach". The hotel is right on the Intracoastal. The water taxi stop is next door at Bokampers, and there are 3-4 blocks of bars and restaurants within walking distance, as well as on the opposite side of the bridge. Beach access is 2 blocks away.

Thanks so much for your feedback! The other RI doesn't appear to have much around it, so this looks like it's a great option!

Does anyone have any experience with this hotel for a pre-cruise stay? Our other option appears to be the Residence Inn Airport & Cruiseport.

I know this location doesn't offer airport transfers, but it seems there are more restaurants, etc. nearby when compared to the other location. How is the area?

Thanks.

Enjoying so far!

Good information! Thanks for sharing.

I think 11729 has the bed by the bathroom/closet and 11329 has the bed by the balcony.

You are correct! I did not proofread my post before I hit "submit"! Lol!

I chose 11329 because the bed is by the balcony as it seems that's the best use of the space. I hope I made the right decision!

Either way, I'll be on a cruise, so no complaints!

Either should provide the same experience as far as views and both should have the bed by the balcony.

Thanks. I just found the old bed placement thread and it says the bed isn't near the closet in 11729 and near the balcony on 11329, so I think I'll go with 11329 as it seems like it's a better use of space.

Also, I am thinking that Allure docks starboard most of the time, so if we're on port side in a Boardwalk Balcony, that might be a bit of a different view.

Thanks again.

Anyone know if there are any reasons to choose one of these over the other (view, etc.)?

Thanks.

Following. Really enjoying your review.

Bummer....Freeport is not my favorite place to visit.

Congrats!!
