Obstructed View Cat 6 Veranda on Mediterranea

[jwhitlow]

Anybody know what the obstructions are and how bad are they. Are all the Verandas obstructed or could I get lucky and not have an obstruction???

Cat. 6 I believe is on Orfeo deck. These should be partially obstructed view. The life boats are directly below the balcony, you're view straight out at the ocean is fine just won't see directly below at the water. If you're lucky you could get a cabin between boats, it's possible.

The roof of the lifeboat and the floor of your balcony are level. Nothing in front of you. It's not bad at all. The floors above you can't see straight down either, the lifeboat is there. The only difference is your level with the LB.

Thanks folks. I'm was almost tempted to spend the extra four hundred dollars to get an unobstructed view straight down, but that would be taking a chance also.

I have two of these cabins booked also, and it appears that there are two different configurations of lifeboats - some with a "cockpit" thing that appears higher and potentially obstructing the view more. Am I incorrect?? All I am going by is a picture of the ship and deck plan.

:) I also have this deck called Orfeo booked for Thanksgiving. Stateroom 5155 and was informed that the only obstruction were the life boats down below. From looking at the deck plans I see a mark between rooms 5162 and 5164 also 5167 & 5169. The legend states that mark means "partially obstructed view."

Cat 4 cabins are obstructed, Lifeboat in front of window. I just went to costa site. They have a pic of the cabin and you can see the lifeboat in front of the window. Cat 6 has life boat below balcony.

 

You can call Costa to be sure the LB is not in front of you.
