Theresa522 Posted March 30, 2008 #1 Share Posted March 30, 2008 Hi, I am considering booking cabin 4230 aft on the miracle. Has anyone had this cabin or one close by? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllenF Posted March 30, 2008 #2 Share Posted March 30, 2008 I have booked aft cabins on 4 of my 11 cruises I wish it could be 11 for 11 :) but for some reason they go very fast;) . I have that same cabin 4230 for my next cruise on the Spirit to Alaska (same type of ship as the Miracle). For me Aft cabins are simply awesome.

yst347 Posted March 30, 2008 #4 Share Posted March 30, 2008 4230 is directly across the hall from the launderette which is located in that blank white space next to the lone inside cabin 4233. I don't know if that will present any noise issue for you but it is a very convenient spot if you need to use the iron or do a load of cloths.

This is only a 2 nighter so I don't think a lot of people will be doing laundry, at least I can say for SURE that I won't.. lol Thanks again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since it will probably be quite chilly on deck that time of year, you will really appreciate having the ship block most of the wind. Have a great cruise! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mprucha Posted March 30, 2008 #8 Share Posted March 30, 2008 Most people really love these aft cabins just because of the view. However, if you ever get a chance to get one of the aft wrap balconies, jump on it! This would be the cabin on the right hand side of your balcony, 4228. We have one of the aft wraps on the Miracle in May and I can't wait to get out there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have one of the aft wraps on the Miracle in May and I can't wait to get out there! We're in cabin 4228 in June. It's my first aft wrap and my first suite. I'm very excited. I'm actually glad we're across from the laundry room. It will be very convenient to run out and do some ironing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We chose this cabin as it was only for 2 nights and a lot cheaper then the wrap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllenF Posted March 30, 2008 #11 Share Posted March 30, 2008 Another thing we really love about the Aft Balcony are leaving ports. Everybody comes out and it is like a Happy hour sail away you can talk to your neighbors(beside you, above and below you) and have 180 degree view. On our Greek Isle cruise on the Freedom we had the Sun setting on 1 side and the moon on the other. Plus it is very quiet and like another poster said very little wind.

You are quite right and this is indeed one thing we love about aft balconies. Unfortunately for the OP this isn't going to be their experience on deck 4 of a Spirit class ship. The back doesn't begin to slope until deck 5. The deck 4 balconies are almost completely covered and the railing is almost straight up and down so they are almost as private as the balconies along the sides of the ship.

AllenF Posted March 30, 2008 #13 Share Posted March 30, 2008 That will be good for us this time since Alaska can have alot more wet weather so 4230 will work for sure. I think we had 6331 on the Legend and I know we had 7448 on the Freedom......and I know Conquest class ships definately are extended and much bigger than the Spirit class aft because of the slope on the rail. So for 4230 I guess there is no slope so are the balcony's a little bigger on deck 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had the divider removed to open the smaller balcony to the wrap and were nice enough to post pictures. You can view the whole album here.

AllenF Posted March 30, 2008 #15 Share Posted March 30, 2008 Thanks....I met Tom and Cheryl on our 2nd cruise :) on the Glory. From those pictures there is definately less slope than on the above Aft balcony decks so there is a tad more usable balcony space............:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AllenF Posted March 31, 2008 #19 Share Posted March 31, 2008 The cabins we are talking about are on the very back of the ship not on the Port or starboard sides your view is of the ships wake. The picture above shows them perfectly. Your Cabin is on the Starboard side but it is consider Aft because of it location torwards the back of the ship to me it is a great area very quiet you might feel a little vibration when docking and the laundry room is very close you are also not far from the Stairs or elevator which make it easy to get to the Lido or promenade decks (the back elevators do not seem to be as busy) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4kidsplusty Posted March 31, 2008 #20 Share Posted March 31, 2008 thanks. with this being our first cruise i wasn't sure what all this meant. we have 4 children who will be sleeping across the hall from us.that is why the man at carn gave us this room we will enjoy our cruise no matter what. its being together and doing things we normally don't get to do. I know my husband can use the break from being a nursing home administrator so i know he won't care where his room is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hill6 Posted September 6, 2013 #23 Share Posted September 6, 2013 (edited) Had 4239 which is the starboard equivalent of the cabin twice. It is great location. No issue with the laundry room back on that deck. When we were on Deck 7 we had folks leaning against our cabin door while doing their laundry. Folks are quite surprised when you open the door and they fall into your cabin. The aft view cannot be beat. Our friends stayed in 4230 and had no complaints.

I see that 4239 is a "Connecting Stateroom". Did you have any trouble with noise coming through the connecting door? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
