Rare Tothesunset Posted January 10, 2013 #1 Share Posted January 10, 2013 OK, this might seem like an odd question: Are the verandahs of the Silver Spirit Verandah Suites very private? Simple reason for question is that we like to get a few rays without getting the ''white bits''. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Silver Spectre Posted January 10, 2013 #2 Share Posted January 10, 2013 OK, this might seem like an odd question: Are the verandahs of the Silver Spirit Verandah Suites very private? Simple reason for question is that we like to get a few rays without getting the ''white bits''. They are reasonably private, i.e. one would have to stand on the furniture to be able to peer over the divider, but it is possible to look down on part of them (probably just about avoiding falling over the side of the ship). Methinks you will be perfectly safe from prying eyes. If that still worries you, then splash out on a Silver Suite on deck 11, you cannot then be overlooked by any guests.

CanadianKate Posted January 10, 2013 #3 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Don't be shy about asking the cruise director for recommendations to "white-bit-free" beaches. On our last cruise, Colin was able to help my dh out in some of the ports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, we are both fairly unfazed by being seen but you never know how others will react so it's just easier to be secluded. Especially when people seem to trip over themselves to be offended these days! As for the Silver Suite - do you have next week's winning lottery numbers handy?

Mr PG Posted January 11, 2013 #10 Share Posted January 11, 2013 If someone poks their head around the railing they can see up to your knees if seated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herman The Cat Posted January 18, 2013 #12 Share Posted January 18, 2013 I assume you are thinking of doing this on days at sea! ;) You'll have to move the chair back so it is almost touching the glass sliding doors. I think it's reasonably private, unless someone next to you or above you decides to lean out over the railing and peek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beepee1967 Posted January 18, 2013 #13 Share Posted January 18, 2013 I could just imagine the impact this would have on the whole clothing/dress attire discussion. :) Well Stumblefoot you got me giggling like a 12 yr old!!! As to the original question, we had folks both side of us and only saw them once or twice on their verandahs enjoying the 'external' view of a new port or enjoying a morning coffee. I think it would be quite a concerted effort by anyone if not also perilous to peek and if they took that much trouble you sound like the reasonable sort of people would just invite them in for a drink as the verandahs do have adjoining doors. Have a great cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnoBirdCruiser Posted February 1, 2013 #16 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Does anyone have photos of Veranda Suite as well as the Silver Suite? Especially the bathrooms and the closets and sitting areas. I would like to see up close shots of these suites. Thank you, Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
