5280mom Posted October 1, 2016 #1 Share Posted October 1, 2016 Looking at booking a January cruise on the Regal Princess. Any aversion to mini suites on Riviera deck 14-mind forward location? Looks like this is the only deck we can choose a mini suite on at this point, just would like to make sure there is not a reason these are left in this location. Obstructed balcony, no privacy, etc?? Can't seem to find anything really. Cruise would be just my husband and myself, no kids or extra roommates :) Thanks for any suggestions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoyosma Posted October 1, 2016 #2 Share Posted October 1, 2016 (edited) With cabins above I would think that it would be an acceptable area. It might help to know the cabin numbers. Edited October 1, 2016 by yoyosma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the abscess of a central stair case, I think forward or aft is preferable to mid-ship. BTW- Regal very nice. You will enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seafish Posted October 1, 2016 #5 Share Posted October 1, 2016 Regal Riviera Deck 14 minis are fine albeit very small balconies. IMO - if available - Deck 14 port side mid-ship minis under SeaView Bar are best - same cabin size, etc., but larger extended angular balcony. No privacy issues from above walkway - but less sun. Remember - no mid-ship stairway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MR TIME Posted October 1, 2016 #6 Share Posted October 1, 2016 if you want a LARGE mini, look at 108 or m108 or the same on the other side of the bridge. All the way forward but HUGE balconies and very private. There are only 4 of these on the ship. m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Location & balcony access might be a no-go for some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But at the Princess website for that specific cabin M108 it clearly states under Stateroom Details - CLUB CLASS MINI STE - BALC ACCESS LIMITED WHILE SHIP IS AT SEA - PART OBSTRUCT VIEW. Also - before booking February 2017 Regal B2B I asked our Princess CVP about these cabins and specifically the limited balcony access - he confirmed the disclaimer info to be correct. Maybe it's a Princess mistake that needs correction. Just for kicks I'll check it out first hand when on Regal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have sailed in L104 twice and M108 once and Princess will tell you that they have limited access.The only limitation is that the balcony light not operable and they ask that you keep the drapes closed at night because the light may affect the officers on the bridge.
