aft cabins on Caribbean Princess

[costaco]

we were thinking of booking an aft cabin for our next cruise. It would be a category BB. Has anyone stayed in a BB aft cabin on the Caribbean Princess? Is it worth looking into?? Any info or pics would be helpful.

if you can book an aft book it! These are highly sought after cabins, if you feel after reading reviews that it is not for you, you can always change. We are going to be in C752 in a month and we will post our review upon our return.

 

From previous cruises, we personally love the aft!

what is it about the aft cabins that is so preferable? I have never been on a cruise so I am wondering!

We will have an aft balcony cabin for our first time this June. We have stayed in minisuites prior and always been on the side of the ship. I think any balcony is great but I think people in the aft like the sound that the wake makes. I also think the aft cabins will be a bit more private than the minisuite cabins we have stayed in. Everyone can look down on you in the minisuites because they are uncovered balconies. There are some larger aft cabins I believe on the Caribe deck on the corners. If you do a search you will see a bunch of aft pictures. There are a ton of threads on aft cabins too.

We'll be sailing on the CB next week and have cabin c753 booked. It's a corner aft on Caribe deck. I'll let you know how it was when we return.

...thanks, looking forward to your reviews.

We stayed in BB category C752 and C753. These are very desirable cabins.....prime real estate! If they are still available, I would book immediately. Balcony is twice the size of those on the sides, completely covered and a breathtaking view of the wake. Most of the time, once in an aft cabin, you can't cruise any other way.

The view of the wake........worth a million dollars!

We met people on a cc roll call prior to our Greek isles cruise a couple years ago that we are still in touch with that invited us to see their BB after cabin on the Emerald, which is identical.

 

It was totally worth it! However, if you are in Alaska you may want a panaramic room wich is best done on the corner AFT - BD which is facing port or starburd side, but you can see the back as well. You're also right near the secret balcony;)

a balcony on the Lido deck, but the front of the ship. Is that good?

The Lido deck balconies are half the size of those on Caribe deck. The Caribe deck side balconies are the largest, however they are half open and half closed. Consider your preference on what is important for your balcony. If you don't mind the half open/closed balconies (most do not) and want a larger balcony, then you should change to a BB on Caribe deck. Also, FYI, being forward has usually the most movement if seas are not so calm.:)

roe2ship, we are interested in those cabins also(c752 c753), do you have any pics of the cabins/balconies that you can share?

We were just in an aft balcony BB on the Sapphire. Here are a few pics. Love love the cabin and the balcony is larger than other BB's.

luckily, we were able to snag an aft cabin, one of only a couple left apparently. Thank you all for your help, and the pictures assure us that we made the right move.
