TPA2005 Posted May 14, 2021 #1 Share Posted May 14, 2021 (edited) Hello, Booking one of these for Alaska. Looking for opinions on Lido vs. Marina deck/location and I know there is not much of an overhang above either but trying to determine if one has more coverage than the other. Can't tell from the pics/videos I've seen. Thank you Edited May 14, 2021 by TPA2005 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Married15 Posted May 14, 2021 #2 Share Posted May 14, 2021 I would go with Lido. We always book those forward cabins on Lido and the view can't be beat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bagney Posted May 16, 2021 #4 Share Posted May 16, 2021 My concern about booking on Lido deck is that the Hollywood Conservatory is directly above and there is the chance of hearing chairs/furniture being moved around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TPA2005 Posted May 17, 2021 Author #5 Share Posted May 17, 2021 (edited) that thought crossed my mind. thank you! Edited May 17, 2021 by TPA2005 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunk Posted May 17, 2021 #6 Share Posted May 17, 2021 I also believe that the balconies (Which are huge to begin with) are larger on the Marina Deck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BabsinTX Posted May 20, 2021 #7 Share Posted May 20, 2021 The balcony is HUGE on Marina deck, but I like the room layout on Lido deck. Either one is a winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruiserGreg Posted May 21, 2021 #9 Share Posted May 21, 2021 We have L106 booked on the September 12th sailing out of Seattle. Does anyone know if they block/lock the balcony while at sea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone know if they block/lock the balcony while at sea? Usually (as seen in reviews) not blocked or locked. There is a sign on the door.

need2cruisesoon Posted May 21, 2021 #11 Share Posted May 21, 2021 Also, please know Emerald way forward cabins are very nice and private with large balconies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone know if they block/lock the balcony while at sea? We are nearby on the same sailing - L102. When we sailed the Baltic in the same cabin (on Royal Princess) we never had any issues with using the balcony - even when it was windy, foggy, and cold as all get out (in Oslo), so I don't think there will be any problems. Looking forward to the views in Glacier Bay from our cabin location! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked about this the other day after booking a balcony in that area. The replies were reassuring as to possible noise, so I decided to stick with that cabin since I liked the location very much.
