Sapphire Balcony Question

[LB Cruiser]

Greetings Princess cruisers, I am thinking about taking my first Princess cruise to Mexico in the fall and I have a question about the balconies on the ship. Do any of the balcony staterooms on the Sapphire Princess have a covered balcony?

Only Dolphin deck balconies are 100% uncovered, Caribe is 1/2 covered (they are also the biggest). The rest have cover.

Whatever you choose, enjoy your sailing!

We had an Emerald deck Mini suite on the Sapphire, and loved it! The last 5 or 6 minis towards the aft are covered on this deck. If you do not mind a little walking, you will love one of these....lower foot traffic , so feel more private....we did use our balcony more because it was covered

Yes, most balconies are covered as follows.

 

Standard Balcony Cabins:

 

Aloha and Baja Decks: covered

Caribe Deck: half covered/half uncovered (but twice as large as Aloha and Baja balconies)

 

Mini Suites:

 

Dolphin Deck: totally uncovered

Emerald Deck: totally covered

And the Lido deck balconies are also covered on the Sapphire Princess...

Yes, right. I always forget about the Lido deck. The reason being is that it is right under the fitness center and I would avoid booking one of these cabins due to potential noise issues (treadmills).

 

By the way, my recommendation could be Caribe deck (larger balcony) for a standard balcony cabin and Emerald deck (covered balcony) for a mini suite. Enjoy your cruise!

Are the aft balcony cabins on Caribe partially covered or completely covered?

[KruzPrincess]

The aft cabins are covered. The Baja aft balcony rails jut out a bit, but all the balconies are covered. I just booked an Aloha aft balcony this week, so I've spent a lot of time researching it.

 

Here's a link ot a picture someone kindly posted for me on another thread:
