ldarcy Posted July 18, 2010 #1 Share Posted July 18, 2010 Can anyone tell me what the difference is between the balcony rooms and the extended balcony rooms on the Spirit? Is it worth an extra $50 pp? Thanks! ldarcy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kujobie Posted July 18, 2010 #2 Share Posted July 18, 2010 Can anyone tell me what the difference is between the balcony rooms and the extended balcony rooms on the Spirit? Is it worth an extra $50 pp? Thanks! ldarcy They're about 50% bigger. Standard balconies are approximately 8 feet wide x 4 feet deep. Extended are about 8 feet wide x 6 feet deep. Makes it easier to walk around someone who's sitting out there. I think it would be worth $50, but we spend a lot of time on the balcony. It definitely feels roomier. Standard balconies are small, even for 2 people. The room itself is the same size. Just the balcony is bigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lyttleone1977 Posted July 18, 2010 #3 Share Posted July 18, 2010 We had a standard balcony on the Spirit, and it worked great for us. Of course, there was just two of us also. We had plenty of room to spend out there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PA Dutchman Posted July 18, 2010 #4 Share Posted July 18, 2010 You get about an extra 2ft extended vs a reg balcony. Rooms are the same. Not a big deal. We had to try one. Its only money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epaul3 Posted July 19, 2010 #5 Share Posted July 19, 2010 The balcony is a bit larger which is nice. The upside: after the ship has past something you can see both sides of the ship. The downside: during warm weather there isn't much of a breeze as in the balconies on the side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are extended balconies on the side of the ship, too.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ldarcy Posted July 19, 2010 Author #8 Share Posted July 19, 2010 Actually I did ask about aft balconies in another thread - so that was really helpful! It sounds like it's worth it to spend the extra on the extended balcony, thanks to everyone who answered for taking the time to help out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
