Thanks for sharing your pictures.

I was getting on the Sapphire the day you were leaving.

OK, this is great. Does anyone have pictures of E304,

Thanks

 

On the Ruby??? The diagram of Emerald Deck looks as if #E304/E303 will be between lifeboats????..........They are both Handicapped cabins........Thanks!

We had a fully obstructed oceanview cabin on the Golden, returning day before yesterday, Cabin E 312 amidships. The bottom of our large window was just above the roof of the lifeboat below. Plenty of daylight and plenty of view, for a very low price. In fact we think it was the lowest price cabin on the whole ship and being on Emerald Deck, in the middle, was a blessing during this rough Transpacific trip! From what we were told, there was far more rocking on tghe upper decks.

Thanks for all the pics here.

 

We have E201 on Emerald Princess and a G guarantee on Ruby. We went with obstructed view because they were the cheapest fares to get on the boat. There were insides at the same price, but I believe the worst thing it can be is totally blocked and an inside. Nothing lost.

We had a wonderful obstructed view cabin on the Golden. I believe it was E707. All it had in front of the window was some very thin scaffolding and a little "deck" for crew members. In fact, it seemed like we had our own balcony, which we couldn't walk out onto, of course. :) One time when we were in port a crew member was checking a meter out there, so it's good not to be undressing then. :eek: We were very happy with this midship cabin that happened to be less than an inside cabin that week.

 

 

When I booked our obstructed view stateroom on the Princess Star I was very curious about just how much (if any) view we would have. I was very pleased with the view from our room and I thought I would share a couple of pics.

 

 

 

Our room was Category HH (one of the least expensive outside categories) and described as being "partially or fully obstructed". We were on the Emerald deck and our cabin was E211 (E212 on the other side of the ship would probably have the same view.)

 

As far as the stateroom itself, I thought the layout was the second best we have had on any of our previous cruises - Disney has very large rooms with two bathrooms per standard stateroom. Our stateroom on the Star had plenty of closet/storage space right outside the bathroom which created a nice dressing area.

Hi, all, I did look through the whole thread, so if I missed this request and answer, sorry...

 

I know that our cabin is listed as having an obstructed view, but it is really hard to see that when I look at the deck plans. Doesn't look like there are any lifeboats or anything. Does someone have a picture of E208 on Island Princess? Thanks for any help.

 

We are so looking forward to our first Princess cruise.

anyone ever on the Coral E619?? How obstucted???

[Labs on board]

OK, this is great. Does anyone have pictures of E304, E306, E308, E506 or E508 on the Sapphire? Taking the family this summer, it would be fun to show them a picture of their cabin ahead of time.

 

Thanks

 

We stayed in E309 on the sapphire which is the direct opposite of E308. Have attached some pictures.

I hope this has not already been asked and I just missed the answer. We are currently booked on the Star e514 for the 6/7/09 Alaska sailing. Does anyone know just how obstructed the view is from this cabin? Thanks ;)

Thanks for posting the pictures, and everyone keep them coming! We are getting an obstructed view and it really isn't as bad as it sounds! It looks like the biggest plus will be the natural light.

We are booked on the Golden Princess this summer. I was originally in E517, but wanted to move closer to our kids who are upfront in an inside cabin E103. So we got moved up to E301 which is a wheelchair accessible room, as we were told it was more spacious and the same FF cat. room, obstructed view. When we got our final confirmation, under comments it said "wheelchair cabin, no view". When I called to ask, I was told it is an obstructed view room and they didn't know why "no view" was listed. Should I be concerned that I am paying for FF when it could basically be an inside?

[Lynda90]

Anyone have photos of E229 on the Ruby? It's supposed to be completely obstructed, but deck plan shows it as kind of between lifeboats. Any info will be greatly appreciated. :p

[Eeyoregon]

Photos are fabulous. A big help in choosing. Thanks for doing this. Shirley

 

I second that...you ROCK Kooljamming! One of your photos just happens to be the cabin (E418) that I booked last night sight unseen.

 

Thank you very much for taking the time to take all of those photos!!

I found these photos of island E507. http://travel.webshots.com/photo/1094798125050248351LTtnDU

We have E508 on our trip to alaska and we hope to have similar view.

I have stayed in this cabin as I am confined to a wheelchair. Not much of a view at all. I now hate the color orange as that is all I saw for 12 days. I wish Princess wouldnt give handicapped accessible cabins to people who don't need them. What happens if a person in a wheelchair wants to cruise?

I don't know how Princess decides on the categories on Emerald deck. Some of the category G cabins have better views than some category F's.

Seems that you are either are lucky or you aren't!

 

We are booked on the Grand in cabin E421 - anyone have any comments or pictures on that to give us a 'heads up' of what to expect?

[silkismom]

Just back from the Emerald Princess, E-603, which looks really awful from the diagram was ok. We had a view sort of around the front of a lifeboat. I took a photo if someone can tell me how to attach it.

[sunnydazed]

booked G cat and got E105 and E109 .Any one know what I shoud expect? Thanks

[atlasali]

E 421 on Caribbean Princess was great view. Hope yours is the same.

[crugirl]

Anyone have photos of cabin E603. We've booked this for next April on the Ruby.

[silkismom]

We just were in E-603 on the Emerald, it should be the same as Ruby & Crown. I'll try to attach the photo.

[FunForUs]

Anyone have a photo of E326. Also is there noise from the Wheelhouse Bar below?

 

Thanks, Shirley

[BRDbabies]

Anyone have pics of this cabin or similar? Not that it matters but just curious, I can probably wait for 13 days to find out!

[PhoneGoddess]

Does anyone have any pictures of E411 on the CB? From the deck plans on the Princess website, it looks like we should have a decent view. I hope so! :D
