CB Aloha Balcony Size

Recommended Posts

Is there enough room on Aloha balconies for lounge chairs. We are booked on a B2B in Nov in Aloha 718. Went for the assigned room so we could be assured of having the same cabin both weeks, instead of the guarentee. If these balconies don't have lounge chairs we may switch to the guarentee and take our chances. Have cruised with Princess 11 times and last march got a nice upgrade.

 

Thanks for your response in advance!

I believe all B category balconies on Aloha deck are small - probably about 4 feet to the rail from the cabin by 9 feet wide. That is not large enough for one or two pool loungers. If you want the largest balcony in a B Category cabin, reserve a cabin on the Caribe deck, they are 9 ft by 9 ft and are large enough for pool loungers. The standard furnishings on a balcony is a small table with 2 chairs and (at least on Caribe) two reclining upright type loungers with a square table that can be used for a footrest. It works pretty well without getting the pool loungers.

IMHO only the "new" chairs that are on the CB (different from those on Grand 2 years ago) are quite comfortable... I would not want a partially exposed balcony for a lounge chair.. would rather have covered with the chairs provided. I guess if you moved the chairs over to the corner you could fit one lounge chair on the Aloha/Baja/Lido/Riviera balconies but it's just not that big an issue. AND if you go to a "guarantee" whose to say you will do better? it's a gamble for a chair..
