rainey52 Posted April 12, 2004 #1 Share Posted April 12, 2004 Are the balconies on Lido deck standard size...covered? We have always been more middle of ship but they gave us this upgrade for May 22, Caribbean Princess..I hope its an upgrade. Any info on this deck would be appreciated.

mpbmark Posted April 14, 2004 #2 Share Posted April 14, 2004 We were on the Grand in a Lido balcony. The cabin and balcony are the standard size at 214 sq. ft. The balcony is approx. 5 x 9 or 45 aq. ft. The remaining footage is in the cabin. The larger sq. ft. in the Caribe cabins is in the larger (9 x 9) balcony. The only negative I felt was in the view forward. The bridge sticks out on both sides of the ship and interfers with the view forward. Obviously, the farther forward you are, the more noticable the obstruction. The Caribbean Princess has an extra deck (Rivera), but I think the above is still accurate. On the positive side, the Lido deck is where the action is. Pools, food and a bar at your your front door (or around the corner) makes these cabins great.

rainey52 Posted April 14, 2004 Author #3 Share Posted April 14, 2004 Mark..Thank you for your reply. We are pretty forward but I'm not going to let that bother me..as long as I can sit on the balcony and look out at the ocean, I'm a happy camper. I love the idea of being on my favorite deck..just a short walk for my morning coffee before the day begins and then back to the cabin for breakfast on the balcony.. I know the gym is above us but thats OK...As long as I am on a cruise nothing will get me down.
