heidik Posted October 5, 2014 #1 Share Posted October 5, 2014 I am looking at the illustration layout and it looks like the verandah is covered? I am looking for a wonderful wide-open aft corner suite, but the drawing looks as if the verandah is covered? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phxazzcruisers Posted October 5, 2014 #2 Share Posted October 5, 2014 They are partially covered, but do still get sun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am looking for a wonderful wide-open aft corner suite, but the drawing looks as if the verandah is covered?The verandas of all suites and veranda staterooms on the stern are less "covered" than verandas on the sides of the ship. If you look at a side view of the stern of the ship you will see it is not vertical but is at least a 30-degree angle to vertical, so the covering over the veranda does not extend all the way back to the railing on the veranda. We were in a veranda stateroom on Journey's stern for 28 days in June and July so I am familiar with the layout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
excitedofharpenden Posted October 6, 2014 #4 Share Posted October 6, 2014 I'm in 6091 on Journey at the moment. Here are a couple of balcony pictures to show the aspect: Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heidik Posted October 6, 2014 Author #8 Share Posted October 6, 2014 Thank you very much! The photos are so helpful! Does anyone have experience with a Continental Suite? The drawing appears to show the balcony is totally uncovered? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marinaro44 Posted October 6, 2014 #9 Share Posted October 6, 2014 Now I'm not sure what you mean by "covered." Do you mean covering over the balcony or below the veranda's railing? I believe all Club Continent suites are covered above, but open below the railing, unlike what is shown in Phil's photos above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dln929 Posted October 6, 2014 #11 Share Posted October 6, 2014 Thank you very much! The photos are so helpful! Does anyone have experience with a Continental Suite? The drawing appears to show the balcony is totally uncovered? The Club Continent Suite is the one which most closely mimics Celebrity's Sky Suite, category 2. In this photo the suites are at the uppermost deck. You can see that the balcony is wider than the veranda cabins below. Sun and shade, depending on where in the sky the sun is and how high it is.

Phxazzcruisers Posted October 6, 2014 #12 Share Posted October 6, 2014 We are usually in the Club Continent Suites. They are covered by deck 10, but still get sun during the day. We have sat out on the balcony on sunny days and gotten sun burned. It just depends on which side of the ship the sun is on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
