subaruSTi Posted January 10, 2011 #1 Share Posted January 10, 2011 (edited) When I was sailing on the Pride w/ an obstructed balcony I couldn't find 100% conclusive pictures of what 'obstructed' meant so hopefully I can help others out.

FloridaGators Posted January 10, 2011 #3 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Thank you so much! We have a 7A on Spirit for Hawaii... I have pics of the 4K's but not the 7A's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vettebuf Posted January 10, 2011 #4 Share Posted January 10, 2011 I hope this helps someone. Last time I looked (a few days ago), 5230 was still available on our 4/10/11 Carnival Pride Bermuda cruise. For disabled cruisers, 5238 is also now available on the same cruise.

I am going to be in cabin 5170 for my February cruise! I too had a hard time finding pictures / getting a feel for what "obstructed" was when I was ready to book my cruise. I think your pics will be very helpful for future cruisers!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chowder_17 Posted January 12, 2011 #6 Share Posted January 12, 2011 When I was sailing on the Pride w/ an obstructed balcony I couldn't find 100% conclusive pictures of what 'obstructed' meant so hopefully I can help others out.Cabin - 5168 We were on 5169 on the Legend and loved it! Those are some of the best obstructed balconies since you're in-between lifeboat and can get a glimpse down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subaruSTi Posted January 13, 2011 Author #7 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Thanks for the pictures Subarusti. I am going to be in cabin 5170 for my February cruise! I too had a hard time finding pictures / getting a feel for what "obstructed" was when I was ready to book my cruise. I think your pics will be very helpful for future cruisers!!! My friends were in 5170 (we had the divider taken out for a shared balcony) and it was nearly identical. I hope you guys have a great time; the pride is a very beautiful ship!

suezyq50 Posted January 30, 2011 #8 Share Posted January 30, 2011 I am assuming obstructed balconies are cheaper. How do you find which one they are? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwiggy Posted January 30, 2011 #9 Share Posted January 30, 2011 I am assuming obstructed balconies are cheaper. How do you find which one they are? Thanks yes, they are cheaper and generally when you are doing the planning on the CC website, choose balcony as your preferred room and the default is to an obstructed view and you can see the room choices and also you can upgrade from there... OP, thanks for the pics ... I am looking at an obstructed view balcony room in 2012 and appreciate seeing these. A balcony to me just adds extra space to your room, obstructed or not ... a little getaway when you aren't quite ready to sleep and don't want to watch TV ....

How are those found? Thanks These are 4K cabins they are on the main deck and to be honest a great value as they are cheaper than OV and you get fresh ocean air and the sound of the ocean But......... You get a great view of a life boat..... but you can see a little bit of the view Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

katieandcorey Posted March 17, 2018 #15 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Pics of 5230. Hi! Are these your pictures of the pride 5230? The only reason I ask is because I have seen these same pictures listed for another ship as well 😕. We booked 5230 on the Pride for December and I want to make sure these are accurate. Thanks!!

Rare finoky Posted March 17, 2018 #16 Share Posted March 17, 2018 These are actually from the Miracle, a sister ship in design. So ymmv as to if it is exact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMAE Posted March 17, 2018 #17 Share Posted March 17, 2018 The first three lifeboats on each side are larger, so the view will be different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katieandcorey Posted March 17, 2018 #18 Share Posted March 17, 2018 The first three lifeboats on each side are larger, so the view will be different. I read that was only true for the first three lifeboats in the front of the ship. We are mid ship, but toward the aft. Thank you both for the replies.

Thank you both for the replies. There are 9 lifeboats on each side that front staterooms.The first three are the larger lifeboats, the smaller lifeboats start at staterooms, 5168 and 5169.
