Steve551 Posted December 19, 2019 #51 Share Posted December 19, 2019 Forward Cove Balconies. My wife loves to be close to the water. - to hear the ship cutting through the water. I like Cove balconies because it saves a lot of money especially compared to some of the cabins we book on other cruise lines. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it different for you depending on the ship or do you always try to book your cabin in the same area no matter what? Hoping to enjoy many cruises in the future. We have our second booked, but it isn't until 2021. I have struggled when choosing our cabins because I really have no experience. I would love to see what seasoned cruisers have found to be the "best" (in their opinion). 😊 For the best restful sleep, I always book a deck that is sandwiched between 2 cabin only decks. No venues above or below. And more mid ship not near any elevators. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the Spirit class ships there are a few extended balconies that are triple length for the same price as a regular extended. There are 6 total with three of them being handicap accessible. 6232 4 person room, 7258 and 8232 are 2 person rooms. 6234, 7260, and 8234 are the handicap ones. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

n6uqqq Posted December 23, 2019 #57 Share Posted December 23, 2019 (edited) The above picture is from our Alaska cruise. We had room 6232 and 6234 on the Legend together so we opened the divider, which created a balcony 6x long and extended width.

reps23 Posted December 23, 2019 #58 Share Posted December 23, 2019 Thanks. We have done that before when the staff would open the dividers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmdiver Posted December 23, 2019 #59 Share Posted December 23, 2019 Lido is my favorite because it is closer to where we spend most of our time on sea days. If that's not available, I will do one of the 3 decks below it. If I go 1 deck below, I check the deck plans to be sure the cabin I select is under other cabins & not the pool or buffet areas. I've done the low decks before & it is quicker to the dining room & to get off the ship at ports. So, I'd be okay with them as well. I just got spoiled to having the cabin on Lido - just easier if you need to run back to the room for something while you are lounging by the pool. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. I booked a back to back cruise in an inside porthole for the same price as a single balcony cruise. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It works for us. 😊 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JandPB Posted December 26, 2019 #63 Share Posted December 26, 2019 On 12/16/2019 at 8:36 AM, Beachiekeen said: It depends on the ship, if it’s a special occasion, etc. But generally we book mid-ship balconies on a deck that has only cabins both above and below us. This usually means we can take the stairs most places and no fear of a noisy public area above us. I’ve always avoided the Lido deck due to the fear of noise and foot traffic but maybe I’ll rethink that now for future cruises. This☝️. For our upcoming Conquest Cruise we have the very last balcony cabin before the aft wrap. It's a larger balcony and the odd shaped cabin but we have cabins above us and below us. We have had a spa deck balcony on the Liberty. That was uncovered and people from the open deck on 12 could look down on us. Not a fan of that. We have had an aft cabin but boy was that HOT. Rendered the balcony useless during the day. For our upcoming Breeze cruise we have our first cove balcony. Looking forward to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
