Curtain Divider between bed and sofa - Koningsdam

[JBCall]

Hi all,

 

We are looking at one of the triple or quad VB rooms on the Koningsdam.  I was wondering if someone could tell me if there is a curtain that can be drawn across the room to divide the area between the bed and the sofa?    Once the sofa bed is made up is there much room to get past it to the verandah?

 

Thanks.

Certainly not in a Neptune on KDAM.  Doubt it in other cabins.

No, there are no curtains to draw.

 

You can get past the bed but it is a very tight squeeze.

I don't believe any of the cabins--even the family ocean view ones--have a divider between the sofa and the main bed.

@JBCallHere's a suggestion to consider.  The Pinnacle ships have Signature Suite layouts where the vanity/dressing area has a single Murphy bed.  There is a wall between that area and the main bed area.  If I had three people this is the room I would want!  It has more privacy than even the Neptune Suites as @CruiserBrucementioned.  No interference with the veranda at all.  Added plus is the much larger bathroom for three people.

That said, when I am solo or with a partner I sleep with I don't like the layout of the Pinnacle Class Signature Suites as the vanity area becomes "wasted space" in my opinion.  Older ship's Signature Suites are my favorite!

🤔 I’m sure I have read somewhere on CC (not necessarily the HAL board) that someone had brought magnetic hooks and a shower curtain to divide the space by placing the hooks on the ceiling then hanging the curtain.

Thanks @oakridger we will remember this for future cruises.

 

 I think your suggestion @kb4683could work for us.  Now off to get some magnetic hooks and a shower curtain.  Maybe a curtain with duckies? 😁

[oakridger]

Have a great time!  Make sure to get the heavy-duty magnetic hooks.   

[JBCall]

When you say heavy duty are you suggesting magnetic hooks that can support 15-20 lbs or 100 lbs?

[oakridger]

JBCall, if it's just a shower curtain than the 15-20 lb hooks will of course work!  I mentioned it because some people use the hooks from the ceiling for hanging shelves or for hanging backpacks, etc.

 

Please let us know how the curtain plan works.  I think lots of people may try your plan.
