CRAustin Posted September 30, 2016 #1 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Need opinions 3 women currently in 10500 penthouse large balcony. Room is over 500 sq feet and balcony is covered by bridge overhang. + for current room Views views views Covered balcony Have always want to try one of these rooms for balcony/views + to switching to SD FL 12 Double sinks & sep shower and tub Rooms about the same size but it says queen can be separated. Can anyone verify? Patio is uncovered could also be a minus as weather can prevent u from sitting out. Has a Murphy bed plus seems like more of a divider vs just a curtain Maybe less motion vs bow. Oh price difference is nominal under 100. Help!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare BirdTravels Posted September 30, 2016 #3 Share Posted September 30, 2016 We were just in the Dawn 10000 with the bridge bumpout. I think that the bed could be separated. There pull out sofa was big (although we never pulled it out). Bathroom was small,,, a little bigger than a mini suite bathroom. We love the forward facing penthouse suites, but there are only two of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
herdingdogmom Posted September 30, 2016 #4 Share Posted September 30, 2016 (edited) The SD on 12 does not have a murphy bed. It has a sofa sleeper which I think is larger than the sofa sleeper in the forward suite on deck 10. The SJ's (without a balcony) have the murphy bed and sofa sleeper. The big bed doesn't separate in the SJ's on the Dawn, but I have read that it does in the SD's. The SD does not have a dining table and chairs like the SJ does.

pathubia Posted September 30, 2016 #5 Share Posted September 30, 2016 We were in an SD on the Dawn, no cover on the balcony, but we never noticed anyone above looking down on us. Our SD had a table, 4 chairs, and a sleep sofa, there were only 2 of so it never got made up. I am pretty sure it was 12020. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm I looked at a YouTube video of 12528 and 12028 and one or both showed a Murphy bed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doughboy139 Posted September 30, 2016 #7 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Hmm I looked at a YouTube video of 12528 and 12028 and one or both showed a Murphy bed. I was on the dawn in cabin #12528 and there was a murphy bed along with a pull out sofa and Queen bed.....The Queen bed can be separated to make 2 beds.....I slept on the murphy bed and it was very comfortable.....The only negative to the family suites on deck 12 is that there is no cover on the balcony so you are in the hot sun all day and can't use it on rainy days.

herdingdogmom Posted October 1, 2016 #8 Share Posted October 1, 2016 Hmm I looked at a YouTube video of 12528 and 12028 and one or both showed a Murphy bed. Sorry, I was thinking of the Star. Although they are sister ships, I forgot that the balconies on those suites were constructed differently on the Dawn so there is plenty of space for the murphy bed and the table and chairs. I slept on the murphy bed in a SJ on the Dawn and it was pretty comfortable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
