AFT S1 1663 Solstice Square Footage?

[KW Cruisers]

Hi everyone,

 

I have posted this question in another thread, but it seems to have been buried, and I have little hopes of anyone reading and responding to it.

 

This is my last ditch effort ;)

 

I have booked the Aft corner S1 1663 suite on the Solstice. I have heard that these suites are larger than the 300 Sq Ft. stated on the website (I believe that pertains to the S2's).

 

Can anyone confirm this? How much larger are these suites? An approximation is all I'm looking for.

 

Thanks so much,

 

Shawn

We are also in an aft S1 (8345 on Equinox) next month so we're also interested in the square footage of the cabin as well as the balcony. From looking at the Equinox deck plans and reading some of the posts on CC, I think the sf may vary from deck to deck for both the cabin and balcony.

We will be on the Reflection 1665 aft S1 corner Deck 11, the only thing that is larger is the wrap balcony. When reading prior posts Deck 6 S1's have smaller balconies. Enjoy your cruise whatever size the cabin & balcony is.

I thought for sure that I read the AFT S1's were larger...I could be mistaken. I also read about the small balconies on the 6th deck (even saw the photos), but I think that's only on the Reflection...(I'd be really miffed if I got a balcony like that in a suite).

The shape of the aft S1 looks different. It doesn't look quite as long but looks wider.

We have only stayed in one Sky Suite so I can't compare, but it was an S1 corner aft on Solstice. It was huge. My understanding from talking to others on our Roll Call was that it definitely is bigger than the normal Sky Suite. To my knowledge, Celebrity does not update their website to indicate variances in the cabin or balcony footages. You will only hear about obstructions. You can be assured the square footages are no LESS than what is on the website, but they don't tell you that sometimes cabins or balconies are larger. For example, the so-called Sweet Sixteen cabins on M class ships have larger than normal balconies. The website does not reveal this - you only learn about it on Cruise Critic:)

This is what I thought...

 

I am well aware of what the website says, as well as what is included.

 

I am simply wondering if the suite is larger. I seem to remember people mentioning that it is...looking at the deck plans (not that you can always judge by that either) the suite looks larger.

 

I too think that X just doesn't list the differences on the site.
