Sapphire mini suite balcony furniture??? Fond hopes!

[Golfette]

Do any of you who have traveled on the Sapphire Princess know if the mini suite balcony includes 2 full-length lounge chairs? I have these images of the two of us luxuriating in full-length comfort on our private balcony but NOT in a little dinky chair.

If they're the same as on the Diamond, Sapphire's almost-twin, the chairs are somewhere in between "dinky" and longer. They are chair size and recline a bit, but not flat. They're pretty comfortable. I've been a lounger or two when gazing down on the Dolphin deck minis from above, so maybe your cabin steward can swap the chairs for loungers. There is certainly enough room.

Thanks so much for your replies and the especially the picture. Does anyone know how I could go about asking for full-length lounge chairs & would they fit?

The Dolphin balconies are not very big, maybe if you remove everything else and put one lounger sideways? Don't think you can get two on the balcony easily. You could ask your steward (tip nicely!) to see what they can suggest.

We asked our cabin steward for a lounger on our cruise in July 05, we were in D601 and then we asked him to remove it the next day. It took up too much room. Yes, Michael was very happy to do this for us :D
