rsail203 Posted June 12, 2016 #1 Share Posted June 12, 2016 We are considering this cabin. I've never cruised Cunard before. Can anyone tell me the pro's and con's of this cabin. Thank you, Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare 3rdGenCunarder Posted June 12, 2016 #4 Share Posted June 12, 2016 I don't know about this specific cabin, but we've sailed in sheltered balcony cabins many times and liked them. People say they can get very warm in a warm climate, but in both the Caribbean and Australia (their summer) we did not find it to be uncomfortable. Sailing out of New York in November, you'll be able to get some use from your balcony right away. The more open glass-fronted balconies can be windy and cooler. The only minus I can think of is that there might be construction in your "neighborhood" as the refit continues on the go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceanMonarch Posted June 12, 2016 #5 Share Posted June 12, 2016 The cruise is a 12 night Caribbean cruise in November. August will be our 6th sailing in a sheltered balcony cabin - all of them TA. We choose deck 5 - which has cabins above and below but generally in the location of your cabin on deck 6. We tend to use the public rooms more in this area, library, commodore club, Royal Court Theater and the Canyon Ranch Spa. If you look at the deck plan - where there are double lines, this is a firewall. There will be a set of fire doors folded into the wall outside this cabin. Instead of a partition that is about 3/4 high between balconies, this one reaches to the top (on one side). It affords you more privacy when you are on your balcony but you are not able to see the ocean when you are seated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aussieflyer Posted June 13, 2016 #7 Share Posted June 13, 2016 I had a cabin very close to this on my last QM2 cruise and it was great. I'm sure you will have no problems with the one you have booked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
