Caribbean Princess B718 or R251?

[FrannyK]

Deciding between these two cabins. We normally like aft so B718 would be convenient to the buffet and dining. But R251 is a higher category so maybe better? We will use the sanctuary so maybe this would also be convenient. The cabin size is the same. I'm wondering if the balcony size is the same and if either balcony is open or covered? Thanks for your help.

B718 and R251 have equal sized cabins and balconies. Each cabin has a balcony cabin above it which have same sized balconies so neither is overlooked. B718 partially overlooks the balcony below because 'C' deck balconies below protrude an extra 50% further outwards. The main differences are location in comparison with proximity to other facilities within the ship, your (personal preference) and R251 is Starboard whereas B718 is Port side of the ship. If you are on a round trip cruise as opposed to a general repositioning voyage that wont make much difference either.

We like aft, near to the HC and the aft pool. :)

Thanks all. Turns out neither cabin is available now and I ended up booking a balcony guarantee. Looking forward to trying Princess.
