sun&sea Posted December 29, 2017 #4 Share Posted December 29, 2017 By the way, how did you film that so clear? What kind of camera did you use? Just curious. Janet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare geoherb Posted December 29, 2017 #6 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Thanks for posting. You can use any card in the slot for the lights. I used a grocery store loyalty card. I did not want to take the chance of forgetting to take my cruise card with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arwen Posted December 29, 2017 Author #7 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Thank you for the tour. WE will be in this cabin in March!! Fantastic! You will LOVE it! It is a really quite stateroom, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arwen Posted December 29, 2017 Author #8 Share Posted December 29, 2017 By the way, how did you film that so clear? What kind of camera did you use? Just curious. Janet Hubby used a Sony AX 53. The intro shot to the stateroom was done with a Sony Action Cam A-3000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sewgood Posted December 30, 2017 #11 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Great video. I liked that you took the time to explain all the features of the room. It is always good to know how many power points and how much storage is in a room. Thanks for posting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mthomp5 Posted December 30, 2017 #13 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Thank you for sharing your video. It was so professionally done! We had contemplated booking in A218 which is close to A208. The only thing that stopped us was I was worried about a lot of movement since the cabin is near the front. Did you feel much movement? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jagsfan Posted December 30, 2017 #15 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Thanks for sharing. For me, the two best things about the Royal minis are the larger bathroom and especially the curtain that separates the tv watcher from the person in the bed who wants to sleep. It muffles the sound, but best of all, blocks the light. You can sleep later, too, with no light coming in when the sun comes up.

tammyinsea Posted December 31, 2017 #16 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Thanks for sharing! We will be in a mini suite this summer. Can't wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arwen Posted January 1, 2018 Author #17 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Fantastic! You will LOVE it! It is a really quite stateroom, too. Well, now, I sure did not notice this the first time around...but I meant to say "quiet" and not "quite". But is also was "quite" a stateroom!

Arwen Posted January 1, 2018 Author #18 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Thank you for sharing your video. It was so professionally done! We had contemplated booking in A218 which is close to A208. The only thing that stopped us was I was worried about a lot of movement since the cabin is near the front. Did you feel much movement? Thank you for the compliment. I passed it on to hubby. I only recall one day out of the ten that I felt noticeable movement. Most of the days and nights I could barely tell we were on a ship! We enjoy the gentle rocking at night (helps us get to sleep!) This stateroom is great for the Caribbean. Probably would not choose it if we were traversing waters known to have rougher seas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure now if I can ever go back to booking "just" a balcony stateroom...:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare geoherb Posted January 1, 2018 #20 Share Posted January 1, 2018 We had contemplated booking in A218 which is close to A208. The only thing that stopped us was I was worried about a lot of movement since the cabin is near the front. Did you feel much movement?Last month we were in A102--the very front of the ship. We did not have much movement at all. There was only one day, though, where the seas were not calm. The waves were crashing over the windows as we ate breakfast that morning (on Deck 5).

Rare Cruz4Sun Posted January 1, 2018 #21 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Thanks for the nice video. I never thought of using the LED candles for a night light in the bathrooms (that have no outlet). I just ordered a set from Amazon. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apenglishthompson Posted January 23, 2018 #22 Share Posted January 23, 2018 We loved our mini-suite on the Royal! Mini-suite stateroom tour of Aloha 208 Come join us: I literally cannot thank you enough for this! I love it so much that I'm coming out of my "lurker shell" and posting for the FIRST time on CruiseCritic! :cool: I've watched it a bunch of times, and it is really helping me ready my mind (and my planning) for our summer cruise on the Royal. We're further down the deck from 208, but still in a mini-suite, so I'm assuming they're the same. Anyway, THANK YOU! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickadee1 Posted January 29, 2018 #23 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Thanks for the video! We are moving "Up" to a mini suite from a balcony for our upcoming Alaska cruise so was delighted to see that extra curtain between the sleeping and living areas - will really need that to help sleep during the endless day we will have at the end of May/beginning of June! Great video! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
