cruzluver Posted March 9, 2005 #1 Share Posted March 9, 2005 We have previously sailed on Carnival and we enjoy sitting on open decks watching the water as we sail. We prefer the aft of the ship so we can watch the wake and we spend alot of time here relaxing. My concern is that on Mariner I'm afraid we won't have this . Could someone please let me know if they have alot of open deck space. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were on Mariner in January-- there is plenty of open deck room to watch the water and the ports-Mariner is hugh-- you'.ll be surprised how much space you will have. We had the best time=-- enjoy... email if you have any other mariner questions--would be delighted to answer...Pamssanity@aol.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruzntime Posted March 9, 2005 #3 Share Posted March 9, 2005 If you enjoy setting aft and watching the wake blend back with the sea and you don't have an aft cabin then you may be pleased to know the Mariner has ample room on deck 11 or 12 (putt-putt deck) and has a nice gazebo there (plus other setting areas). But, this area doesn't remind me of some ships where there are just tons of tables and chairs strewn all over the aft of the ship. There is also another area where you can have considerable solitude and watch the ocean/wake and that is on deck four aft. Here though, I don't think you can see if you set down and still watch the wake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candleonwater Posted March 10, 2005 #4 Share Posted March 10, 2005 I think the putt putt is on deck 13... and from what I could find, if you don't have an aft room.... that is pretty much the ONLY place to watch from. That's the main reason I have a balcony this time around... LOVE to watch the water go by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reltco Posted March 10, 2005 #5 Share Posted March 10, 2005 You should have plenty of room to sit aft and enjoy the wake. Here's a picture onboard Mariner I took from the putt-putt deck (13) looking at deck 12, one deck above the Windjammer (11). Seeing is believeing. Enjoy!

Candleonwater Posted March 10, 2005 #6 Share Posted March 10, 2005 From your picture what I see is the area around the kids club where I saw signs indicating that space is for TEENS only. (on deck 12)... where those loungers are. But of course, I'll double check it when I'm on the ship in 2 weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reltco Posted March 10, 2005 #7 Share Posted March 10, 2005 I din't see any signs and all I saw was the adults sitting back there. I haven't seen too many teens lounging, they're too full of energy, at least my 2 are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candleonwater Posted April 5, 2005 #8 Share Posted April 5, 2005 I verified it this past week (both visually and by reading it in the compass) the after area on deck 12 is only for teens. Deck 13 - putt putt area is OK, but can get noisy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
