Golden obstructed cabin info needed

[mringenoldus]

I'm looking for information on the Golden Emerald deck obstructed F category cabins. Are the lifeboats directly in front on the windows? Or are they below the windows but obstructing the downward view of the water?

 

I was able to help me friend get one cabin that appears to be between two lifeboats - but their adjoining cabin may be pretty obstructed.

 

Thanks for your help!

The boats are directly level with the cabins.

Some are completley blocked by the lifeboats and some are in between.

You cannot look down to the water because the outside Promanade deck is below, but you can see the water in the distance over or betwen the boats, with all the rigging and lowering equipment there is a view but it is extremeley limited. :)

If it is a Tender....has the cabin....you will look at it broadside.

 

If it is a Lifeboat.....no cabin.....you will be able to look over the top of it.

 

Check the deck plan......they are accurate portrayals of the window's relationship to the tender / lifeboats.......and some of the cabins look between the tenders / lifeboats.

Well worth it in my opinion if you get a great price like that. :)

We were on the Golden, the last week of July. We booked a guarantee HH, but we were upgraded and were assigned to cabin E222 (F Category). We were pleasently surprised that in this particular cabin, the life boat did not completely obstruct the view. You could see out over the top of it. So for example, one morning I was able to see some whales frolicking out in the harbor, but I would not be able to see them if they were right next to the ship. Some of the other lifeboats did appear to be hanging higher, so I can't speak for all cabins in the F category.

I wish I had caught that promo for my friends - but I suspect it was for new bookings only. Since it's past final payment, they probably could't take advantage of it.

We also got a great deal last summer for the British Isles for obstructed view.

We had cabin E231 and we had a pretty good view - enough to see where we were and what the weather was like!! Worked very well for us!!

Thanks for the photo! I think my friend in E620 will have a similar view - but I think her DS and DIL in E622 are going to be looking at a lifeboat. Oh well, age has its privileges :)

If you are looking at a lifeboat (and not a tender) then your view should look something like this.

That's not so bad - I've seen cabins with the window almost totally blocked. Thanks!!

We were on the Golden for a one day cruise in May and had an obstructed view. The funny thing (?) about it was it caused such a reflection on the window when the lighting was just right it appeared as though someone was looking in at you - I'd gasp and then realize it was my own reflection!! Yeah, well......what can I say?!?!?!

[mringenoldus]

That's pretty funny!

If totally blocked then you would have a tender instead of a lifeboat.
