iTouch Posted August 24, 2011 #326 Share Posted August 24, 2011 the aft cabins across the back are laid out the same as on the side.the only difference is the two middle ones--- which will be a few inches smaller and no reported sofa. http://travel.webshots.com/photo/2319544980098669841NIvPmw the aft balconies are larger- I can not see a lounge chair out there as it will take up your space empress deck 7 is the best deck-- see if you can chose another cabin for the sofa We had 2 loungers on our deck 7 aft extended on Destiny. It's well worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cajunpeach Posted August 24, 2011 #328 Share Posted August 24, 2011 booked our first aft on the Sensation, does anyone have a aft balcony shot (close up) &/or cabin shots of E259 or similar cabin? THANKS! 35 DAYS Woo Hoo :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunnieC Posted September 24, 2011 #329 Share Posted September 24, 2011 I just got off the Dream last week, and we had cabin # 9475 - and aft wrap. In all my research I could not find a good pic of that cabin. So, here are some. Please note- there is no couch. Also- there was no issue with using the lights on the balcony at night. Looking in from cabin door back corner where the bathroom door is, and the door to the balcony. Balcony looking to the right of the door Balcony looking to the left of the door. It was a nice room, and a HUGE blacony! We really liked the room, and spent lots of time out on the balcony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dafuser Posted September 29, 2011 #336 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Our last cruise on the Ecstasy we got upgraded to a aft extended balcony from a interior cabin. That balcony was beautiful, much nicer then the balconies on the sides of the ship. I would not book one myself, I think they're too expensive. I'd rather cruise more often in a interior then pay the extra money for a balcony or ocean view. But when the upgrade fairy makes you a deal you can't refuse, it's a no brainer. No wind, quiet, and the view was great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HNLGAL Posted October 3, 2011 #337 Share Posted October 3, 2011 I am looking for 7440 (aft corner) on the Glory. Trying to decide between the aft and the junior suite forward... The site "says the 9C cat. only has 35 sq ft balcony" whereas the Junior suite has "85 sq ft balcony". Any body know what is correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HNLGAL Posted October 3, 2011 #338 Share Posted October 3, 2011 Great pictures! Do you know if the partition can be opened to the balcony next door - room 6485? I have 7440 on the Glory booked over Xmas but now am torn between that one and a Junior suite 9206 way up front. Any recommendations or opinions???

Too bad it is still 5 weeks away:) We just upgraded from an extended aft to an aft wrap on Destiny, sailing in only 11 days. Ready for the extra cost? $10.00! I don't want to like it too much because DH and I always book a regular balcony cabin on the Lido Deck. This upcoming cruise is a special getaway for Mom and me. I'll let you know whether or not we like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casper2422 Posted October 26, 2011 #342 Share Posted October 26, 2011 I just booked room 7445 Aft wrap balcony on the Carnival Valor.

TB08 Posted October 26, 2011 #343 Share Posted October 26, 2011 (edited) Couldn't resist this thread. Here are a few from Alaska this last September on the Spirit. The weather and view from our Aft Balcony was spectacular! And - don't forget the calming churn of the propellors! :p Two cruises, two Aft cabins. We are hooked on them.

picklebongo Posted October 27, 2011 #345 Share Posted October 27, 2011 I recently booked an aft wrap on the Splendor, sailing this summer. I am having some serious second thoughts because of comments to the effect that it's really hot back there, very little breeze and virtually no overhang. Slying or sitting out there is like constantly being in the sun. I am considering booking a cat 11 or 12. What do you guys think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RumpunchGirl Posted October 27, 2011 #347 Share Posted October 27, 2011 Dh and I are going to be in our first Aft Wrap on Miracle in 3 months! I can't wait. Being from Minnesota, I will be welcoming as much sun and heat as possible! :D I'm sure we'll be leaving during -30 degree temps and snow. Anyone have pics of Miracle Cabin #6329?

Almost Packed Posted October 27, 2011 #348 Share Posted October 27, 2011 This is all I can find for now but I have others. Many photos looking up, down, sideways etc. I have previously uploaded them to another website too where you can see cruise cabin photos but I do not remember the name of that site at this moment (brain fluff*):o We had one corner and my brother and his wife had the other. I'll keep searching and post at another time for the other photos. I have tons...I just can't remember where they are stored lol.:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Almost Packed Posted October 27, 2011 #349 Share Posted October 27, 2011 OOPS! LET ME TRY IT AGAIN! this time with the attachments lol. Well, nevermind...for some reason it will not allow me to upload at this moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slying or sitting out there is like constantly being in the sun. I am considering booking a cat 11 or 12. What do you guys think? We had an aft wrap on the Spirit (similar itinerary though different ship) and yes it was hot when the ship was in port, but there was a breeze while at sea due to the size of the balcony. You'll probably be off the ship on port days anyway, right? Watching the stars at night with the sound of the wake serenading you, is so relaxing. Then there are the sunrises and sunsets! We had no trash or noise issues as others have mentioned. We were on the Panorama deck, just below the Lido. I would keep the cabin if I were you. Depending on the time of day and how the ship is positioned, you still might be able to sit on your balcony during the morning or afternoon.
