mr. godfredo Posted April 8, 2022 #1 Share Posted April 8, 2022 Anyone out there ever stayed on the obstructed balcony cabins on deck 5? We have cabins 5186 and 5188 for Alaska in June and are wondering how "obstructed" these cabins really are. Any insights would be helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hapytobehr Posted April 8, 2022 #2 Share Posted April 8, 2022 Usually obstructed balconies are just above the lifeboats so you would not look straight down to the decks below. I doubt they would take away from any views in the distance. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go to the site that has "cruisedeck" in it's name. Go to deck 5 and there is a video of cabin 5188. The lifeboat appears to block looking down but doesn't appear to interfere with your horizontal view. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knagl Posted April 9, 2022 #5 Share Posted April 9, 2022 From my research, those are pretty decent cabins for being "obstructed balcony". The lifeboats in that area are shorter than the tender boats that run from 5142 through 5166 (and 5143 through 5167). The screenshots below are from a video of the Carnival Legend (sister ship to the Spirit) room 5184 and would be a good representation of your view. You can't see straight down due to the lifeboats, and because of how far aft your cabins are you won't have a full view to the rear, but overall not bad.

Gma&Gpa Posted April 11, 2022 #7 Share Posted April 11, 2022 I was happy to see this also. We've book 5190 on the Legend - and I was a little concerned about the obstructed view - but feeling much better now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
