lusitanica

Lusitanica, I can't figure out which stateroom has the wonderful-looking wraparound balcony pictured in http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/cmB8imSApifoKOFcxsMGUA?feat=directlink. it's on the 14th floor, and looks like it is just below the Garden Cafe (as far as I can guess) and before the Mandara Spa on the port side. To get perspective, the album is http://picasaweb.google.com/erdoran and this specific picture is #59. #61 and #55 are closeups of this balcony, and you can see it in some other distance shots like #68 as well as others. From http://www.cruisedeckplans.com/DP/Main/Norwegian+Epic-deck-plans.html it looks like it is part of the spa, but from the photo it looks like it is part of a room, perhaps 14118. I would think if it is that this would be a wonderful room to have because of the great balcony. It's either an SD or M9 depending on pre/post May 2011.

 

What do you think?

I think this is 14118.

Hey, im thinking of changing my cabin from 10016 to 10032, since it seems that 10016 is a balcony with a wall with hoe in.

 

Would you think its a good switch ?

 

Thanks in advance

 

Kim

IMO 10016 has much better view.

10032 has a bed by the entrance door.

But enclosed balcony vs not enclosed...is up to you.

I changed 14004 (enclosed balcony) for 10234. It was a mistake? Can someone tell me if the balcony is covered. :confused: Thanks

10234 is covered.

It overlooks open balconies on deck 9 and lifeboats.

Was it a mistake?

It depends on what you like.

Now you have more sun but the view is not good.

Hello, all. Fascinating post, but one I find making me quite uneasy. After looking at the deckplans and the pictures, can anyone tell me if cabin 10312 is one of the "in Hull" balconies? It is located port side aft, and I see those squared windows. I saw somewhere in another post that these windows are part of the aft stairwells?

Lucistanica...Don't mean to be a groupie but your posts are awesome! Can you please tell me where cabin 10185 is located on the ship?? :D

Can you help me find 10104 and is it cover? Thank you so much :)

It's covered.

Overlooks open balconies on deck 8 and lifeboats.

Could you please locate cabin 10004...i think it is a dud.

I am enjoying all your work and have tried hard to find my cabin based on all your replys, however I still need help. Can you please locate cabin 14114 at your convenience! Thanks a bunch.:p

I hope this request won't "sink" you.

 

Thank you for the hint!

I would love some help if anyone can answer? We booked a suite (17019)

and we were told it was an open air balcony... I am worried, because it

looks from photos that most of the suites have glassed in balconies...

 

Would anyone be able to confirm?

 

Thank you very, very much from a new cruiser!!

Enjoy your balcony.

Thank you so much for the great service you are providing. I can't figure out our cabin #8069 ...is it covered & position in relationship to the life boats below. Thank you...have a great day!

It's covered. Lifeboats are immediately in front of it.

Hey again, anyone know where the bed is in this room ?

 

Kim

The bed is by the entrance door.

U r amazing. I cannot help but ask what about 11088? Is it covered.

Yes, it's covered.

You are awesome, I think I'm okay with 12173, it's in the bump, center ship, I think! DH is worried -does it look okay? Much appreciated!

12173 is in the bump, overlooks lifeboats.

The bed is by the balcony.

I think my parents are in 11016. I am pretty sure he booked it because it looked like it had a larger balcony (and I think once the room category changes go into effect next Spring it will be listed as a "larger balcony" cabin). From studying all of your photos it looks like he is in one of the enclosed balconies. Do you have any photos that would show what the view would be like from inside one of those cabins? It looks like an awfully small opening compared to the other balcony views. :(

L - the view from outside: overlooks open balconies on deck 9.

R - the view from inside (a similar balcony on a different ship).

Hi, Can you please help out with cabins 11241 and 8162? I believe 8162 is going to be wide open as far as balcony. I think 11241 is a deep cabin. Are both beds by the door?

 

Thanks so much!

8162 has an open balcony. Overlooks lifeboats.

L picture is a reconstruction.

The bed is by the entrance door.

11241 has a deeper than standard but not the deepest balcony.

It overlooks open balconies on deck 8, deck 9 and lifeboats.

The bed is by the entrance door.

Is the balcony covered????

Sure.

A while back someone posted an overhead view of the balcony rooms. It showed and compared the 2 different floorplans. I can't seem to find it. Does anyone know which thread it was in? After readying SD Mikes great review, I am wondering which floorplan I am in later this month.

 

Thanks!

What additional information do you need about embarkation and debarkation?

No, you've posted it already. Thanx.

I didn't get that information on the ship

The number of passengers is a key question for the "review", but "daily diary" is fine without that.

Had some serious laugh out loud moments too!

Yes, I had laugh too.:D

It's word for word how I see this ship and what I know about this ship.

I like some helpful comments about embarkation/disembarkation though.

Unfortunately an important detail is missing (sorry if I missed it) - the number of passengers onboard.

I upgraded for the space and am now wondering if their is a large overhang from above the balcony, second since this is in the family area will it be noisy, third most of the balcony picts that have been posted are from the odd numbered side is the ship symmetrical cabin wise, last love how lusitanica has been pointing out room , would love it for room 13044 thanks

The ugly posh supestructure overhangs standard cabins forward.

13044 is on the "hump" which is level with the posh superstructure. No overhang. 13044 overlooks lifeboats.

Kid's Club begins three cabins away towards the stern. It's not directly above you.

13044 is close to elevators and starewell.

The bed is by the balcony.

I have been trying to figure it out myself, like many others that have posted on this thread but I just don't seem to have the skills to do this! Can I please ask you to locate these cabins for our Feb 19th cruise?

13031 & 13027. We chose these cabins because they are have an inside adjoining door.

 

I can't tell you how much I appreciate this, you have been so helpful to so many!

Feb 19th cruise.....:)

So far they seem to be here:

Can you tell me about this cabin please? I already think I am switching.

 

Thanks,

Deb

12295 overlooks exposed balconies on deck 9. No lifeboats directly below.

The bed is by the entrance door.

Sorry to add to your work but any info on cabin 9079 would be much appreciated - thanks

9079 is partially exposed. It overlooks exposed balconies on deck 8 and lifeboats.

The bed is by the balcony.

Lusitanica, it is an honor to see someone as nice and helpful as you!

The Mrs. won't let me rest, Have any idea where our room 10060 would be and if the bed is balcony side or door side?

Thank you so much in advance for your thoughtfulness!:D

10060 overlooks open balconies on deck 8 and lifeboats.

The bed is balcony side.

Would you have any current photos of the interior of this cabin 12014.

I don't have a photo of this particular cabin.

But this is how a cabin of that kind looks:
