Shynook11 Posted March 26, 2018 #1 Share Posted March 26, 2018 (edited) Are the forward and aft penthouses less for a reason? Are they not near the rest of the Haven amenities? If that is correct, are they still worth it? Maybe no upgrade this trip but we have the Epic booked in 2019 for Europe....so all info is appreciated.

If that is correct, are they still worth it? They are the best bargains. Extra space (separate living room) and full access to all Haven facilities and perks. We only book forward facing rooms or spa rooms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shynook11 Posted March 26, 2018 Author #3 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Are they near the Haven pool and restaurants or away? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarimaJ Posted March 26, 2018 #4 Share Posted March 26, 2018 They are not in the “Haven” area. You the aft cabins are a hike and the forward cabins you would just go up or down the stairs to get to the Haven area.

Sent from my iPhone using Forums The aft haven cabins on the escape was not that bad. Maybe a two min walk at the most from the aft cabin to the Haven proper. Figure if the walk was going to be too much I could have the butler deliver what ever I needed. Only need to go to the Haven proper to lay out or swim in the Haven pool. If we wanted a quick bite the buffet was right above us so it was a shorter walk then those in the Haven.

Based on videos I’ve seen of the Epic aft Haven suites, they are a lot different than the ones on Escape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Summerstravel Posted July 28, 2018 #7 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Does anyone know how deep the pool is in the haven on the Escape and Breakaway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BirdTravels Posted July 28, 2018 #8 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Does anyone know how deep the pool is in the haven on the Escape and Breakaway? About 5’ But, if you stretch your arms out, you could almost touch both sides of the “pool” at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re not in “the Haven” area, so are typically more affordable to offset this. The aft suites have amazing balconies but are farthest from the Haven (figure a good 5+ minute walk). Forward suites are closer, as The Haven is also Forward, but the balcony is pretty small and only accessible from the living room. Both are great values.

BEACHBARB Posted July 28, 2018 #12 Share Posted July 28, 2018 The forward cabins might be in the same area as the Haven proper but depending on which deck you are on the stairs could be a hike and just the walk to the elevator is pretty far as the forward elevators are almost mid ship. Just my opinion. Loved the aft balcony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While maybe helpful to others, the OP already sailed mid-June (we were on same trip as her family). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
