kebrown Posted February 16, 2020 #1 Share Posted February 16, 2020 I am thinking about booking a Sunset Veranda cabin on an Edge cruise because I would prefer to have a "true balcony". However, on this same cruise that I am considering, Aqua Class cabins are $50.00 cheaper than the Sunset Veranda cabins. Should I go with the Aqua Class cabin instead of the Sunset Veranda with the "true balcony"? Is Aqua Class on the Edge a good experience compared to a Sunset Veranda cabin? And why would Aqua Class be cheaper than a Sunset Veranda? Very confused at this pricing by Celebrity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jelayne Posted February 16, 2020 #2 Share Posted February 16, 2020 There are so few non-Suite cabins with a true veranda they command a premium. We were in AQ on the Edge last year and the food, wine and service were the best we have had on our cruises in AQ (roughly 20). The negative for some about Blu on the Edge is that there are few if any windows and the drapes are closed as they don’t lookout to the water. We dine late so 95% of the time there is nothing to see out of the window. Tough decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kebrown Posted February 17, 2020 Author #3 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Are the Aqua Class cabins interior the same size as the Sunset Veranda interior? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No.. the SV interior is larger...longer, and has extra space the same approx size of the Infinite Veranda.,,plus the huge outdoor balcony, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lola2013 Posted February 17, 2020 #7 Share Posted February 17, 2020 I loved the SV on Edge...and every other ship. Other than the fact that I see it as a true balcony, I love the wake view. I have a SV booked on upcoming Equinox and Reflection ships also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have been upgraded to Aqua once and it was nice, but would never pay the extra cost for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mafig Posted February 17, 2020 #9 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Sunset Verandas are very popular, it seems. I was looking at cruises on Edge for next year and most sailings none are available.🤔🥰 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbt518 Posted February 18, 2020 #10 Share Posted February 18, 2020 I was about to ask a similar question, we are considering Edge or Apex for a cruise next March 2021 and our last 3 cruises have been in AQ on the S class ships but I was wondering, would we miss out on the 4 dining rooms if we are in AQ and dine in Blu. Not sure yet if we want to try the infinite veranda or get a sunset veranda but just focusing on the dining room questions. Can anyone maybe @hcat expand on this? I will now go and read your two reviews. But how was breakfast in the MDR or Buffet? We like the relaxed breakfast atmosphere in Blu so much.
