ddunn Posted July 2, 2008 #1 Share Posted July 2, 2008 I just booked room 5299 on the legend....it is an aft balcony, but not the wrap around...it is in the middle of the ship, aft. Has anyone ever been in those rooms? I have never been aft before............will i like it.? Denise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serene56 Posted July 2, 2008 #2 Share Posted July 2, 2008 laundry room is located across the hall-VERY convienent. Long walk tot he stairs/elevators--makes up for the extra desserts. Halls are quieter back here. Balcony could get warm during the day--keep the curtains closed to the cabin to keep it cool. balcon will look something like this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddunn Posted July 2, 2008 Author #3 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Thanks serene! i appreciate your input. Normally i book balcony midship, on 6th 7th or 8th, but we were late booking..( just the other day) So we had to take what we could get.. I was concerned with it still being opened, it might be a terrible place to be!!!! Denise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was concerned with it still being opened, it might be a terrible place to be!!!! Denise I also booked this room, not even realizing it was an aft room. I was thinking about calling to switch. I am worried it might be too sunny and not really as private as the side rooms. HUMMMM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serene56 Posted July 2, 2008 #6 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Having sailed the aft 7 out of 10 times it is the only place for me. I dont worry about being on the wrong side for scenery or looking at the port- either you back in or pull in--either way the view is good. I can see both sides in the ocean--not jsut one.. and the wake ahhhh, priceless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Julia Goolia Posted July 3, 2008 #8 Share Posted July 3, 2008 I'm booked in room 5268 on the Legend for next spring (May 31st). I have heard great things about aft balconies and such. I can't wait! Hope you enjoy your room. Take care, Julia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ddunn Posted July 3, 2008 Author #10 Share Posted July 3, 2008 Hi Denise, we sailed on the Miracle together although we never got to meet. We are also booked on the Legend for 7/20 (18 more days & we cant wait). When are you going? Hello Lynne! Let me know how you like it! It is a shame we didnt get to meet....but funny that we are going to be on the same ship, just different times. We leave Sept 14, 2008.....

Rotnkid49 Posted July 5, 2008 #11 Share Posted July 5, 2008 Denise I will definitely let you know how we enjoyed the Legend when we return. Looking forward to this cruise for some much needed R & R. The Miracle cruise was with our children & grandchildren and we had a ball, but this one is just hubby & I. We also just booked the Glory for 5/2/08 and we will be 17 (all family).

papanh Posted July 5, 2008 #13 Share Posted July 5, 2008 We were in cabin 7300 on the Legend last year, same room different deck. You are going to love the aft, privacy is the same as a side balcony except for 1 foot at front. Pictures below of cabin and balcony Papanh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotnkid49 Posted July 6, 2008 #14 Share Posted July 6, 2008 Serene56 you are so right. I definitely meant 5/2/09. Just the thought of missing a ship gives me the shivers, lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
