Indy - Spacious Ocean View Balcony


Recommended Posts

Going on Independence next week, did a RoyalUp bid for a regular balcony and ended up getting a Spacious Ocean View Balcony. Tried to find pics or videos online but I can’t tell anything different about them. Are they actually bigger? Not complaining since I still got what I bid on (with the minimum bid 😎) but I’m just curious

Yes, the spacious OV balconies are bigger by about 15 sq ft

When I compared the balcony part was the same size almost as a JS.

 

Inside not as much bigger, the balcony part was a lot bigger imo. I was looking at liberty.

On Freedom class the balcony is the same.  It is the inside that is bigger.

 

As you can see in the image the cabins are the same width but the spacious (middle 2 cabins is longer)

thanks, that’s pretty helpful. The deck plans I looked at were the ones in the app which doesn’t show individual rooms. Would also explain why I couldn’t tell a difference in pictures because it’s hard to guage depth

Inside the room it is the difference between a loveseat and a sofa
