mysweetmom Posted September 12, 2014 #1 Share Posted September 12, 2014 For those who have cruised on this ship before, do you prefer the bed by the balcony or nearer the cabin door? Does it make a difference? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasiii Posted September 12, 2014 #2 Share Posted September 12, 2014 For those who have cruised on this ship before, do you prefer the bed by the balcony or nearer the cabin door? Does it make a difference? Makes no difference to me as long as I'm on the ship. :D But my preference is to have it near the balcony. It has the look of a larger room that way. Plus the closet is a little easier to vet into. wasiii Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meatball_nyc Posted September 12, 2014 #4 Share Posted September 12, 2014 We had the bed by the closet and it was a little tight for me, but nothing horrible. Heck, we were on Breakaway, we didn't care where the bed was! We sure did love our balcony :) Happy Sailing! Bon Voyage wasiii !! ~Robin Every Day at Sea is a Great Day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LrgPizza Posted September 12, 2014 #5 Share Posted September 12, 2014 On the Getaway (which is the same) I preferred the bed by the closet. I liked having the bed, bathroom, etc. all together, and then having the couch and balcony in the other part, like one big open living area.

roe2ship Posted September 13, 2014 #9 Share Posted September 13, 2014 We had the bed near the closet and it was very tight. Much prefer the bed by the balcony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mysweetmom Posted September 13, 2014 Author #10 Share Posted September 13, 2014 We had the bed near the closet and it was very tight. Much prefer the bed by the balcony. Last year we had the bed by the closet a well. Going on the Breakaway again in 2 weeks and believe the bed is by the balcony. I'll be able to compare.

VickiD59 Posted September 13, 2014 #11 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Our bed was by the balcony - with the couch near the closet. I found the sliding closet door a little cumbersome to reach the hanging part of the closet. But it wasn't nearly as bad as if the bed was there instead. I found the storage of the cabin lacking - don't get me wrong, I loved this ship, but really missed the THREE spacious, separate, non-sliding closets on Carnival ships, which run vertically facing the bathroom door. But if all I can complain about was the closet and storage... well then it wasn't so bad now was it ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teseo Posted September 14, 2014 #12 Share Posted September 14, 2014 We were on the BA and had the bed next to the balcony. We loved it that way, gives you more space in the room and at night if you like to have the balcony door open, you will have the breeze right in your bed (just so you know if you have the balcony open the AC won't run, door needs to be closed and locked with the 2 locks, the one on the handler and the one at top, for the AC to run). We have to upcoming cruises on the BA and I made sure I got cabins with the door next to the balcony again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbaran Posted September 14, 2014 #13 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Definitely prefer the bed by the balcony. I found it too difficult to get in and out of the closet with the other set up. Plus when you first walk in the room seems so much more spacious when the bed is near the balcony as the whole front area feels more open.

Debbie1029 Posted September 14, 2014 #14 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Just off Breakaway this morning, second time with bed by balcony. Love bring able to lie in bed and look out at the sea! Sent from my iPad using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nisky18 Posted September 15, 2014 #15 Share Posted September 15, 2014 I liked the bed by the balcony. I leave the drapes open at night as I like being awakened to natural light and the majestic ocean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meatball_nyc Posted September 15, 2014 #16 Share Posted September 15, 2014 I forgot to add our beds were separated. That's why I had less room to get into the closet as opposed to the beds being together. It still wasn't a problem at all. ~Robin Every Day at Sea is a Great Day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crusinpsychRN Posted September 16, 2014 #18 Share Posted September 16, 2014 I also wonder if people like the bed on the forward wall so your head is forward, or on the back wall so your feet are forward...Changes the feng shui of the experience!! I must need that upcoming cruise badly.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must need that upcoming cruise badly.... I've been on many cruises and have had the bed each way. To me it didn't make any difference. I hardly feel the ship move and half the time I forget which way we're going any way. LOL :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
