Is Freedom 9197 Scenic Grand Ocean View 6J worth it?

[maggieworkman]

We are looking at cruises for December. I was leaning towards the 5 day Sunshine in a 4S Inside Spa room as we love the thermal suites. We've had these types of cabins on our last 3 cruises (Dream x 2, Splendor).

 

I was reading about the Scenic Grand Ocean View rooms 6K and called to check availability of those. I found one on the 6 day Freedom (6J) room 9197.

 

So I am really wondering if this cabin is worth it?? If it were one of the corner ones (6K), I might think it was. But I am not so sure about this one. We would miss the spa, probably. Although I know the Freedom has the hot tub thing in the gym. But I would miss the heated loungers. Also, the only 4S rooms left on the Sunshine are on Deck 12 which I understand are smaller than most.

 

Itinerary:

Freedom: Key West, Grand Cayman, Cozumel

Sunshine: Grand Turk, Nassau

 

We've been to all of these ports already, so that isn't a dealbreaker. It is just DH & I trying to get away for a little while.

 

Price:

Freedom: $1082.88

Sunshine: $905.78

 

 

So, are these types of rooms (6J) worth giving up the spa access?

I would do it for a 6K but not a 6J in this particular case.
