Ooooooooo it can't be, I studied the floor plan. Oh I'm going to cry now.

Hi again, Well you've booked our past cabin 11164! deck 11, one good thing is when you sit on bacony facing the ocean the left side wall is fully enclosed, not visible to your neighbours from that side! and it is the last mini-suite at that end, then the balcony cabins start, am I making any sense to you? a little more private. Oh and if you get the same cabin steward 'Roger' lucky you as he was lovely and so attentive, so thats a couple of positives :) as other poster mentioned its a handy position with plantation buffet down a little further and above you on deck 12, remember there is no deck 13!!! and deck 14 is where the walkers/joggers are so no noise from them...it was a great position for us, also handy when I needed the bathroom and helped me avoid the public toilets! hope I 've made you feel better, so don't cry ;) it will be great :D Nett.

Hi lovely people

we would like to hear from anyone that has been in a mini suite on the jewel, worth the money, noise? Perks? Location?

 

Thank you

regards

cruising at dawn

Hi, We sailed on the NYE cruise on the Jewel and we had a mini-suite 11164 port side, the noise didn't bother us (maybe we were up top making the noise :p ) no seriously, heard a little now and then but nothing to concern us, eg with our balcony door open I recall hearing the music at night which I didn't mind as it seemed like it was bouncing off the ocean, for me it just added to the festive holiday feeling and I enjoyed it but having said that it is easy to close your door! Although we loved having the extra space in our cabin I couldn't justify the $8000-00 plus it cost us!!! overall it didn't meet our expectations particulary when this is suppose to be the best cabins on board :( we have already booked for 9th Jan'11 and have gone back to a balcony cabin and feel this is way better value for us , however if I could have got a better price or if P&O had of looked after us being past cruisers (2 Cruises in 12 mths) I would most likely have booked a mini-suite again. (But we are cruising peak time) Yes, I agree the balconys are small, our friends were very disappointed as they didn't look like the brochure. Had awonderful cruise :) Nett.

He didn't want to miss out on his cheap grog:p;)
