Sapphire - D736 or D737 - B4 - Premium Balcony?

[phabric]

It looks like the Sapphire cabins  D736 or D737 (B4 category) have a bigger balcony 354 sq ft bigger than other B4 cabins at 277 sq ft. and go around the corner.

 

Are they covered?

 

Has anybody been in either of these cabins?

 

How did you like the cabin?

The balcony is bigger but did you see this?

Special Notes:
NON-STANDARD LAYOUT TWIN BEDS ONLY/ SHOWER ONLY/NO TUB/ NO SINK VANITY

 

We haven't been in either of those cabins but have been in E728 with a similar balcony. It is very long but doesn't go around any corners. (Also E728 has a "normal" cabin layout inside but is a mini suite)

All mini suites on deck 9 have 9ftx6ft uncovered balconies. Believe this is also the case with the cabins you mention. Look at the information on this site

Thank you for posting the photos.  Very odd cabin configuration.  I would not book this cabin, regardless of the balcony size.

Only on the older grand class ships is it like this. The equivalent D733 on the Crown class ships is a normal minisuite with a much larger balcony.

Thanks for the pictures.  It gives me an idea of the cabin.  We are 2 ladies so have twin beds.

 

I am wondering if it is covered for shade as I can’t sit in the hot sun.  

 

I have a choice of one on these cabins or an aft cabin facing the wake.

 

Choices to have?

Grab the aft! Our favorite cabin and most have 9x9 totally covered balconies.

 

I don't think any cabins on Dolphin have covered balconies .

 

Googled again . This is the Sapphire. D736 is the large balcony second from the bottom on the end with the white side - totally uncovered. (The large covered Emerald cabins are the bottom ones.)

You can also see all of the aft balconies.
