cruz4natic Posted February 28, 2010 #1 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Can anyone tell me if the Equinox has any balcony cabins with a larger, extended balcony? Does this ship have anything like the "sweet sixteen" cabins located forward on the M Class, or CC cabins like 6144/6143/6136/6136 located aft, that are located in Butlerville, but have the extended large balconies. We were in 6144 on the Infinity, and the balcony was awesome. We were wondering if the Soltice Class, specifically the Equinox has any balcony cabins like that. Thank you, all, in advance, for your great info. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruz4natic Posted February 28, 2010 Author #3 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Both front and back of the hump? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerseygirl3 Posted February 28, 2010 #4 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Both front and back of the hump? Yes, apparently the first and third cabins off the flat part of the hump are the largest, and the second and fourth are second largest. Also, each cabin alternates with bed by balcony in one cabin, bed by bathroom in the next cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spunky01 Posted March 1, 2010 #5 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Would 2144 be a larger balcony? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WehoAtlantis Posted March 1, 2010 #6 Share Posted March 1, 2010 We were in 1601 and it was a larger balcony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
librarylady19 Posted March 1, 2010 #7 Share Posted March 1, 2010 (edited) I copied this from an earlier post; sorry I don't have the author of the thread. It pertains to hump cabins in Aqua Class. If you search "hump cabins" in this forum, you will find lots of additional information. Of the 8 Aqua Class Staterooms on this angle, 1606 and 1601 are the largest -- Huge. We fit 6 people comfortable on our veranda and could have squeezed in 2 more with no problem at all. After that, 1599 and 1604 are the next 2 largest of the 8, just a couple of feet or so shorter. The rest of the staterooms on the angle (1610, 1608, 1605, and 1603) are smaller because there is a Attendant's closet on each side before you enter the rooms, so they are set in by about 4 feet or more which takes up that room from the balcony. My neighbor was quite surprised. Our Stateroom attendant also took care of the nearby Suites -- need I say more about the Quality and Attention to Detail? If you're looking for connecting rooms, I would recommend 1604 and 1606 as you could open up the glass to connect the two balconies and walk next door. There was a supporting beam between 1606 and 1608. You could open up the glass connecting the two balconies, but the glass was triangularly shaped on the beam so you would have to climb over the beam to get onto each other's balcony. Same for 1601 and 1603. Edited March 1, 2010 by librarylady19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same for 1601 and 1603. I wrote that post -- Unfortunately I errored in reporting. The attendant's closet does not affect the stateroom or balcony size. Ergo, 1610 and 1606 balconies on the Starboard side are the same size, and 1601 and 1605 on the Port side are the same size. Only difference is bed by bath on Starboard, and bed by balcony on Port. The attendant's closet is just a storage closet, and shouldn't cause any noise to those staterooms. Edited March 1, 2010 by Wine-O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dollydosh Posted March 1, 2010 #9 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Hi I copied this from another post as i found the information very helpful. personally LOVED my C1 hump cabin #1243 - about triple the size of a standard balcony - it was HUGE!!!!! Literally the largest non-suite balcony on the ship! The balcony was great for hosting cocktail parties - we had 25+ people out there one day! Being on the aft part of the hump there was virtually no wind issue to deal with. We got sun when we wanted it, and shade if desired as well. Due to balcony depth there were no privacy issues related to the angled shape. There are 58 +/- cabins with the same size balcony we had - they are: Resort Deck: 2105, 2109, 2106, 2110 Penthouse Deck: 1547, 1552, 1601, 1605, 1606, 1610 Sky Deck: 1075, 1044, 1231, 1243, 1247, 1108, 1120, 1124 Panorama Deck: 9155, 9192, 9209, 9215, 9237, 9241, 9266, 9270, 9292, 9296 Vista Deck: 8199, 8162, 8255, 8259, 8281, 8285, 8228, 8232, 8254, 8258 Sunrise Deck: 7159, 7206, 7215, 7219, 7241, 7245, 7260, 7264, 7286, 7290 Continental Deck: 6155, 6156, 6209, 6215, 6237, 6241, 6210, 6214, 6236, 6240 Most of these are on the hump, but some are forward where the ship starts to indent. The rooms run the range from Category 2C, 1A, C1, or AQ (with the exception of 6209/6210 which are categorized as 07 Obstucted Balcony - great balcony at a small price!). There are also many cabins adjacent to the ones I listed that also have oversized balconies that are about double the size of normal ones, but I would go for the triple sized ones first Hope this helps!

We booked 6210 with speculation that it might have bigger balcony. 4 more weeks and I will confirm it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BMT Posted July 20, 2011 #12 Share Posted July 20, 2011 I am looking at 6214 - do you think there will be early morning/late night noise from cafe below? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ISABELLA Posted July 20, 2011 #13 Share Posted July 20, 2011 How did you like 6210? noise, obstructed view... all good? We liked it a lot - near elevators, quiet, large balcony, partial obstruction to the left, looking down - didn't bother us. Price is right for the balcony room. I wished the bed was near the balcony and not the bathroom. I booked the same room on Eclipse for next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gollane Posted January 25, 2016 #14 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Just back from the Equinox,we had cabin 6303 which has a large balcony approx. 80 sq.ft. .The so called obstructed view is the roof of the Murano restaurant which means you cannot look straight down,forward view perfectly good.My partner found this quite reassuring as she doesn't like heights This is the last cabin on deck 6 and there are 8 cabins on each side of the ship with these large balconies counting from the back.Our cabin had the bed by the balcony the next cabin had the bed by the closet and so it goes on alternating like this.By checking the deck plan you can work out where the bed will be. These are great value 2c cabins I would have one every time even though it is a bit of a hike to the elevators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbenboys Posted January 25, 2016 #15 Share Posted January 25, 2016 We have stayed in cabin Resort Deck: 2105 a number of times. We liked it very much. Great location and quite with oversize balcony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
