Lorey2007 Posted August 26, 2018 #1 Share Posted August 26, 2018 I have a aft mini suite on deck 9 booked for our Cuba cruise. After viewing some photos on various sites it looks like the mini suites on deck 11 have a roomier living area while the aft mini has a huge balcony but the living area looks more confined. I think I would like the roomier deck 11 mini but I see that it is below a area before the Observation deck that has lounge chairs and am worried I will have dragging chair noises in the am. Anyone have any experience in a deck 11 mini suite port side? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanceholt Posted August 26, 2018 #2 Share Posted August 26, 2018 We were in an aft mini on the Sun for a 15 day transatlantic, biggest mini we have ever been in....VERY comfortable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dexddd Posted August 27, 2018 #3 Share Posted August 27, 2018 I'd stay on 9. We had one on 10 aft and it was nice but 9 is the preferred. I did look at a few pics of the ones on 11 and not noticeably bigger living room from the pics. You are also close to buffet, sports bar, moderno, etc. being aft.

First. 11th deck are awesome and quiet. Aft is beautiful for the view IF you are going to use your balcony. I love aft on transatlantic and cold climes. Caribbean ... not a chance would I be out there. No wind, VERY hot. Just my 2 cents. Have fun ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorey2007 Posted August 27, 2018 Author #5 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Thanks all I decided to switch to deck 11. I don't think we would use the balcony that much. Did not particularly like the sofa across from the foot of the bed and the cabinet with the TV, desk and fridge on the side of the bed in the aft deck 9 mini. Deck 11 mini has the sofa next to the bed and the TV etc across from it. Saved a little of money in the switch so that is a good thing.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
herdingdogmom Posted August 28, 2018 #6 Share Posted August 28, 2018 We have stayed in a port side mini on deck 11 twice on the Sun and loved it. No noise from deck 12. Great location near the pool deck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One cruise was South America and the other was Panama Canal. A couple of rough sea days on each cruise but you should be fine in the seas from Florida to Havana.

herdingdogmom Posted August 28, 2018 #9 Share Posted August 28, 2018 Oops, just realized my typo - we were starboard in the Sun not port. We have been to Key West and Havana on the Pearl and Sky and had starboard cabins then too. In Havana, the starboard balconies have the best view of the harbor and lighted Christ of Havana. We docked at the closer dock in Key West and starboard faced the lively dock area. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
