janny444 Posted August 6, 2022 #1 Share Posted August 6, 2022 We have a Seaview cabin....5304....booked on Iona and the videos I have seen of Seaview cabins show them having a window seat....do all Iona Seaview cabins have a window seat or just certain ones ? Not bothered about a balcony cabin in December visiting Northern ports but the window seats look just the job for us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janny444 Posted August 20, 2022 Author #2 Share Posted August 20, 2022 Just thought I would " bump" this thread to see if there is any response....we have booked Iona 5304 but would like a window seat.... any of you peeps know which cabins have a window seat .....hopefully the cabin we have booked has one.

weskiers Posted August 20, 2022 #3 Share Posted August 20, 2022 I've watched several blogs and it looks as if all the cabins they show with window seats have 3 or 4 lifejackets in the wardrobe. I wonder if it's when there are more than 2 berths in the cabin. We have a single sofa bed in October, so if my theory is right we will also have a window seat.

Someone on there has put a map of the cabins, marking which ones have window seats. Always takes me ages to find it though. Surely 5304 is a balcony deck though? Thank you for that...Will take a look...take it that it is the well known social media site. Some cabins are balcony on that deck but some are sea view...only just found out that some have a window seat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peppers mum Posted August 20, 2022 #8 Share Posted August 20, 2022 We were on Iona at Christmas in a balcony cabin. Our friends were in a Seaview cabin 4507 and had a lovely window seat (although their bed was alongside the wardrobes.) We absolutely loved Iona and thought she was stunning. We were just so happy to be back on a cruise ship after having 7 cruises cancelled !! Hope this is helpful, enjoy your cruise. We're on countdown for our Baltic cruise on Britannia on the 18th September 👍 Julie x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to use a magnifying glass as well, that’s why I prefer to look at deck plans online. Only trouble is they don’t always have the legend.

FluffyFiFi Posted September 15, 2022 #11 Share Posted September 15, 2022 I’ve had both a window seat and a window alcove on Iona. Both are excellent and I would probably go for the window cabins over a balcony. I’ve had three window cabins on deck four and find it a great position as it’s usually the same deck they use for the gangway so getting on and off is easy. It’s also lovely being so close to the water. I have had a few balconies on Iona too which are great but can be a bit noisy with wind and can rattle a bit too - nothing to bad but the seaview cabins are quieter. The alcove in the window is a large window sill that you can sit on, I used the cushions on the sofa and spent a lot of time reading my book as it was so cosy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r1955 Posted October 29, 2022 #19 Share Posted October 29, 2022 We are thinking of cruising with P&O for the first time (on the Iona) having cruised with other companies. we are also thinking of a seaview cabin but as far as "That well known social media group for Iona has a list of those that do and dont" I haven't a clue what people mean, maybe because I'm not British? Anyway I wanted to ask about cabins 4447 4431 4429 4477 if someone happens to know whether these have window seats? Also, we are cruising as a couple and I wanted to know if to avoid those cabins that have an option of 4 beds? Or maybe there is no difference between the various seaview cabins?

There is a page of Iona cabins and suites on the site you mention. It lists cabins with a window seat or not, and whether the bed is near the window or the wardrobes.

indiana123 Posted October 29, 2022 #23 Share Posted October 29, 2022 (edited) I think the rules say we are not allowed to say. I may be wrong but think that is the position.

We are not allowed to name it, but it's probably the most well known one, but not Musks. As for 4 berth cabins, it really does not matter since most extra berths will either be Pullman bunks concealed in the roof, or sofa beds, neither of which should affect your use of the cabin as a couple.
