jasperkerri Posted April 28, 2017 #1 Share Posted April 28, 2017 I am looking at possibly booking the family Cabana on the Eurodam. Strangely enough, when I called ship services, she was not able to answer very many questions. If any one knows, I am looking to find out if they face the pool or if they face out and back for viewing. If anyone has pictures, I would really appreciate it!

Rare POA1 Posted April 28, 2017 #5 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Here are several photos of the family cabanas on the Eurodam: http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showpost.php?p=51861293&postcount=363 If you look at the while thread and go to post #354 or thereabouts, you'll see pix of the entire cabana area.

jasperkerri Posted April 28, 2017 Author #7 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Thank you! Those look fantastic! Are they facing into the wind as you are sailing or are they facing the back of ship? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The direction the wind comes from varies. Yes, the forward motion the ship has can cause a wind from the bow. But a tailwind causes wind from the stern. Then there are the possibilities of crosse winds. The major open side faces aft. But the door allows air to blow through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're at the front but do face aft. Last year I got totally confused and asked for what I thought was the family cabana that would be on the webcam side when leaving. Got the wrong one.

jasperkerri Posted April 28, 2017 Author #13 Share Posted April 28, 2017 I was hoping for aft. It is a cruise to Alaska so I am sure it will be cold enough without the main opening facing the bow. We will just make sure to bring up plenty of blankets. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare POA1 Posted April 28, 2017 #15 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Any recommendations on which one we should ask for? I think it's kind of a wash, but if I had to pick, it would be port side. My thread has the names if you need them. As for wind: If you have a strong following wind, you'll know it. It's pretty rare though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare cruisingxpert Posted April 28, 2017 #18 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Any recommendations on which one we should ask for? We had Capri on port side but they are otherwise identical. If you are going to Alaska, have you considered booking a Neptune Suite at the back of the ship instead of a cabana? Great views and the back part of veranda should have more of a wind break.

cccole Posted April 28, 2017 #20 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Any recommendations on which one we should ask for? After seeing these photos I would run, not walk, to make my reservation. You can always change your mind, but if they are gone you are out of luck. These look absolutely fabulous!!!!! JMO Cherie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rorojas1 Posted April 28, 2017 #22 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Do you get the cabana for the entire cruise or just specific days and times you choose? Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelleherdl Posted April 28, 2017 #23 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Any recommendations on which one we should ask for? We always get Costa del Sol, starboard side on all ships. I honestly think we get better service there because the attendants' station is starboard. Or maybe we just look like we tip well. 😊. Which we do.

Sent from my iPhone using Forums If they're not booked, you can try to get a day reservation. My experience is that they're usually booked for the full cruise.

CruiserBruce Posted April 28, 2017 #25 Share Posted April 28, 2017 I think that when you talk to Ship's Services, you will find you can only book daily rentals on board. Full cruise rentals can be done in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
