The M-Class Penthouse Suites are truly amazing. Only problem is once you sail in one it is so hard doing a lesser stateroom on a future cruise!

Phxazzcruisers Posted July 17, 2013 #5 Share Posted July 17, 2013 We have been in the Penthouse two time now. It is incredible as Gonzos photos show. We absolutely loved it and as said, it is now very difficult to even think about returning to the Aqua Class rooms. The penthouse and balcony is larger Than many people's apartments. If you have a chance to book it and can afford to, do not hesitate. It is AWESOME Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part of Balcony: Just curious, how much privacy do you have with the balconies above overlooking your balcony? Some of the furniture in the photos looked a little worn. Was this the case?

Gonzo70 Posted July 19, 2013 #16 Share Posted July 19, 2013 (edited) Just curious, how much privacy do you have with the balconies above overlooking your balcony? Some of the furniture in the photos looked a little worn. Was this the case? You can kind of tell from the shaded portion of the picture; that shaded area is under an overhang of the balcony above, so private. The part in the sun is in view of people's balconies on the decks above. The balcony is so massive (over 1,000 square feet) that there is plenty of privacy if that is what you want, but a large chunk is not private. The hottub is in a private section. The furniture definitely was not new, but was by no means unsightly; it was completely functional and very comfortable. This was in May of 2012, so since more than a year has passed it is possible some of the furniture has been replaced. Here is a close up of some of the balcony furniture: Edited July 19, 2013 by Gonzo70 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I view this thread, that photo is not showing until after your post. I do not see it until post #14! I know that there have been some problems with CC recently but I thought that it was something different. Really strange!

mdmourges Posted July 19, 2013 #18 Share Posted July 19, 2013 I mean you get a little kitchen with a full refrigerator, microwave and tons of wine glasses. How could it get any better? Oh yeah, a deck that you could park a few cars on. Make sure you wave to the people who are hanging out in decks above the penthouse and make it seem like it is a difficult life. lol Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you get a main bathroon large enough to roll the piano into and still have a party in there, a larger bedroom and much, much more light. Or am I just being greedy? Still yet to stay in a M-Class PH [have only visited so roll on November] but absolutely loved the PH on Eclipse. Until we have done both, I will reserve judgement on position. Ideally, it would be central as on the S-Class but with the ability to lean over the balcony and watch the aft wake !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Circusboy354 Posted July 20, 2013 #22 Share Posted July 20, 2013 We have this booked for our upcoming Sydney - Singapore cruise. Originally we had a RS booked but then the prices for the PS dropped so we changed. There were a couple of reasons for the change, other than the price drop, we love a rear balcony and on this ship you almost get a rear half deck, also our daughter who will turn 1 on the cruise won't be able to use any of the pools so the hottub on deck will be good for her. Has anyone got any experience with tendering while in a suite? Is the priority tender service really priority? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Project_gal Posted July 20, 2013 #23 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Has anyone got any experience with tendering while in a suite? Is the priority tender service really priority? We have only been at a tender port once on a Celebrity cruise. Our butler brought us priority tender tickets before we docked. We did not have to request them. When we were ready, we went to the cinema [as directed] where there were three members of the activities crew waiting [and no one else]. They radioed to the tender and we were escorted there to find that the tender departure had been held for us. We were walked past the queue of people waiting to board the next tender and boarded. The system worked for us but it was a lttle embarrassing and we were not exactly popular with the waiting guests or the tender crew! As we were in no particular hurry and, if we would have known how it would be, we may not have used the priority service. Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bonedoc7 Posted November 13, 2013 #25 Share Posted November 13, 2013 So happy you posted these! Thank you Felix for sharing these with me, I had a hard time finding current pictures. We booked the PH and connecting suite (for the kids) for our Alaskan cruise July 2013. I love having cocktail/dinner parties, and this space will be perfect! Of course, I still need to convince my husband that hosting a party is a good thing! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
