marycang Posted June 11, 2008 #1 Share Posted June 11, 2008 According to Princess website the Crown Oceanview w/ balcony cabins are sized from 233 sq, ft, to 285 sq.ft. Does anyone know where the larger cabins are? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Web Posted June 11, 2008 #2 Share Posted June 11, 2008 I am far from an expert, but i think it goes up with your cat. Cruise.com 's website seem to list the different sq footage by category. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toto2Kansas Posted June 11, 2008 #3 Share Posted June 11, 2008 It is not the cabin size which makes the difference. Princess adds the square footage of the stateroom AND the square footage of the actual balcony together to come up with those figures. So, what you are looking at is the same exact stateroom only some with a larger balcony then others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLS Posted June 11, 2008 #4 Share Posted June 11, 2008 Th largest sq footage (includes the balcony) are on the Caribe Deck. Balcony is half covery, half open. A great way to have some sun if you wish or shade. All the balcony cabin are the same size wise (expect handicaped cabins) so only difference is the balcony.

LuvTheGoodLife Posted June 11, 2008 #7 Share Posted June 11, 2008 following refers to 'side' of ship balconies only, i.e. those on starboard or port sides of any ‘Grand’ class ship (Grand, Golden, Star, Diamond, Sapphire, Caribbean, Crown, Emerald etc) and not any balconies that face directly aft.... Baja deck balconies are sized 9 ft. wide x 5 ft. deep and have full ceiling overhang. Lido, Aloha, Riviera (found on Caribbean, Crown, Emerald, Ruby only) decks have the same balconies. You can stand at the railing of these balconies and look down on to part of the Caribe deck balconies and all of the Dolphin deck balconies. Caribe deck balconies are sized 9 ft. wide x 9 ft. deep and have ceiling overhang over the first 5 ft. Standing at the railing, you will overlook Dolphin deck balconies below. All of the cabin interiors/bathrooms of the balcony cabins are the same with respect to size (unless it is a handicapped cabin). Dolphin deck balconies (all balcony cabins are actually mini-suites and thus bigger than regular balcony cabins on the interior with sitting area, 2nd TV and bathtub/shower combination instead of the small shower stall found in the regular balcony cabins). The balcony is sized 9 ft. wide x 7 ft. deep and has no ceiling overhang as protection from sun or rain. Emerald deck has several mini-suites each side with fully covered balconies. The last mini-suite cabin towards aft end on each side has extra wide balcony – approximately 7 ft. deep x 18 wide, according to someone who stayed in one of these. Emerald deck also has some regular balcony cabins near the front that have the balconies set back under the roof and back from the railing. You look straight out to the water but cannot look down on the water. The walking track goes past these balconies and walkers can see you on your balcony. I do not have any measurements for these Emerald deck balcony sizes. Other than the Caribe deck balcony cabins ( which have larger total square footage because their balcony is nearly twice as deep), your largest square footage regular balcony cabins would be the few Category BB cabins facing directly aft on Caribe Deck (C752/753), aft facing Cat BB cabins on Baja and aft facing Cat BB cabins on Dolphin (D 733/734?). These have the same interior cabin size as all other balcony cabins but the balcony is slightly bigger than the 9 ft wide x 9 ft deep of the Caribe balconies located on the sides of the ship. Hope this helps. Enjoy your cruise!
