PennyB Posted September 16, 2011 #1 Share Posted September 16, 2011 I have this mini suite on hold for a Southbound Alaska cruise for August of next year. I knew I wanted a mini suite WITH a totally covered balcony on the port side. Believe it or not, there aren't a lot that fit that criteria ! Does anyone have experience with that cabin or that block of AC mini suites? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capriccio Posted September 16, 2011 #2 Share Posted September 16, 2011 We had D-712 for Alaska in 2007 and loved it since it provided protection from the elements. In fact we've already reserved D-705 (decided to see what is visible from the other side of the ship :D) for our next Alaska cruise next year! Make sure you walk to the aft deck -- hardly anyone goes out there and you have beautiful views of where you've been! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beg3yrs Posted September 16, 2011 #3 Share Posted September 16, 2011 I had concerns about the Coral's mini-suites last year and found the following link. This guy has all sorts of details and PICTURES about all the balcony rooms on both the Coral and the Island. http://mysite.verizon.net/res76zxu/princessbalconies/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEtue Posted September 18, 2011 #4 Share Posted September 18, 2011 I have sailed in D707 on the Island Princess and the aft mini suites are very nice. As mentioned you can access the aft deck for wonderfully viewing on glacier days. Enjoy :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PennyB Posted September 18, 2011 Author #5 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Thanks everyone for your feedback. Making this kind of financial commitment you want to make sure to choose the best. Didn't want to risk not getting a covered balcony for Alaska. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
