seaview52 Posted June 29, 2009 #1 Share Posted June 29, 2009 I am looking at an obstructed oceanview cabin on the Sapphire Princess for Alaska. The options I have left to pick from are: Category F: E223, E214, E217, E215, E211, E700 or E701 Category G: E206, E207, E208, E209 All other categories seem to be sold out for the sailing I am looking at of Sept 12, 2009. Which of these cabins that are left do you think might have the most view of the ocean, with the least obstucted view of the life boats? I have been looking for pictures of the view of these cabins, but I can not find much, so looking for anyone's help would might of already stayed in one of these cabins. Any help with description of view, or pictures would be greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the cabins in the 200 range the windows are above the boats and you will have some view Here is a picture of the Diamond (exact sister to the Sapphire) that shows the boat and window from the exterior that we took when we where in Vancouver last year. I hope it helps. http://travel.webshots.com/photo/2411537060046097424pKbEFs?vhost=travel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VibeGuy Posted June 29, 2009 #3 Share Posted June 29, 2009 I second E211 - we were in there for two weeks recently, and the obstructions are really pretty minimal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VibeGuy Posted June 29, 2009 #4 Share Posted June 29, 2009 Here's the first of three pictures from E211 that I could (quickly) find; we were in there for two weeks earlier this month. Here's #2 and #3. One is from slightly to the right side of the foot of the bed, and two are taken from the right hand side of the bed next to the nightstand. They are fairly representative of what you'll see walking around the cabin. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CA Dave Posted June 29, 2009 #6 Share Posted June 29, 2009 I forgot to mention there was some noise from the Theater a couple of nights. It didn't keep us awake. We were trying to identify the Piano Man songs from the booming bass line. DZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdngrl Posted June 29, 2009 #7 Share Posted June 29, 2009 i'd choose e700 or 701. i prefer the back to the front of the ship. its by the aft elevators and stairs and the top of the lifeboat is at the bottom of the window. the pic is from the sapphire e701. the little one is sitting in the window ledge. there was a lot more view than the picture shows.

Rockymountainsparky Posted June 29, 2009 #8 Share Posted June 29, 2009 It looks like E211 would have the least obstructed ocean view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barrykel Posted June 30, 2009 #10 Share Posted June 30, 2009 That really doesn't look bad at all. Do the obstructed view cabins on the Caribbean Princess have a similar arrangement? We're thinking of doing the Southern Caribbean cruise in December. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
