Observer Posted November 14, 2022 #1 Share Posted November 14, 2022 I am asking for a computer-challenged friend who is considering a cruise on Splendor. She has been booked in a G2 suite at the very rear of the ship, squeezed between two much larger suites. She is very concerned that a bridge partner of hers said that the railing on the balcony of the suite may be solid metal (instead of several bars/railings), thus making it difficult for her to see the wake while seated. (She is quite short.) Can someone edify? I came up dry with searches. TIA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrlevin Posted November 14, 2022 #2 Share Posted November 14, 2022 We have sailed in an aft G2 on Explorer. Sitting down you cannot see over the metal railing (solid metal all the way down). Standing up you are able to see the sea and throw grapes down to those in the infinity pool. Would I book one again; hell no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Observer Posted November 14, 2022 Author #3 Share Posted November 14, 2022 Thanks very much. I saw a post regarding this problem on Explorer, but we are trying to determine if the same problem exists on Splendor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Sweethearts Posted November 14, 2022 #4 Share Posted November 14, 2022 We asked our computer for exterior photos of the Splendor and it came up with shots from all angles. You might take a look at those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not good for a short lady who likes to see the water while sitting on the balcony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwn Posted November 15, 2022 #6 Share Posted November 15, 2022 We have sailed on other ships that have the solid railing in aft suites but it does not bother us. The 180degree view side to side and straight back as opposed to just one side is well worth it. We will be in a aft suite in Dec. To each his own.
