bjboothman Posted February 18, 2005 #1 Share Posted February 18, 2005 Cruznliz, I did a search on C309 to see if I could learn anything about this cabin. I just booked it today for a December Panama Canal cruise and see you are in this cabin next week. Please, do me a big favor and give me a quick email when you return, letting me know what it's like. Everyone else - is this a good cabin or not? It's the last one in the fore bumpout on Caribe on the starboard side and it seems to be a corner-type balcony. It looks great to me, but I'm wondering if there is something bad about it that I can't see. Is the balcony partially shaded? Is it curved rather than rectangular? This is a BE cabin and "seems" nicer to me than the higher grade cabins that are just aft of it - so I'm wondering what makes it a cheaper cabin. You usually get what you pay for. I'm wondering if the location on the end makes it the best of the bunch of cheaper cabins. Will the people above be able to see down on us and will we be looking down on someone else? Are these bumpout balconies somewhat smaller than the midships balconies - it's hard to tell from the diagram. Does anyone have a picture of one of these bumpout corner balconies? I've been on the Coral and loved it but had an inside last time and know nothing about the balconies but what I've read today. Thanks for the info.

bzv143 Posted February 18, 2005 #2 Share Posted February 18, 2005 Look at some pics... you will be on display for everyone to see. If privacy is an issue, this cabin is not for you; however, if you like views, it's great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruznliz Posted February 18, 2005 #3 Share Posted February 18, 2005 Joy, I'll be happy to send you an e-mail with the scoop (and maybe a picture or 2) on C309. We take whatever cabin we are assigned. We've never been disappointed yet!! That's for sure!!! We happened to just book the Island Princess coastal cruise for May 2006 and amazingly we were assigned the very same cabin (C309). So I hope we like it on the Coral! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjboothman Posted February 18, 2005 Author #4 Share Posted February 18, 2005 Have you considered playing that number? That's quite a coincidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nana Dawn Posted February 20, 2005 #5 Share Posted February 20, 2005 Cruznliz, I would be interested in that info as well. We are getting ready to book the Island Princess for Hawaii in 3/06 and having problem with those diagrams as well.

cruznliz Posted February 20, 2005 #6 Share Posted February 20, 2005 Okee dokey!! I copied both your e-mails and put them on my bulletin board. Now I just have to remember what you wanted when I get back. :eek: ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
