I can't remember the last time our suite balcony had a light. Not sure if it's a safety issue or?? but haven't seen one in many, many years on any ships. Good video. Same basic Owners Suite layout, just nicer, (newer) finishes/furnishings...

Probably more of a "lets cut more costs". Went on Independence of the seas last month and it has a balcony light. Going on Mariner of the seas next week to see the 120 million refurb - they added abunch of stuff as well as stuffing in around 60 plus cabins - thanks for the reply

Perhaps you ment Ovation of the seas. I have not been on that ship as that class of ship leaves out of the upper east coast as well as a lot of Alaska cruises and I've been spoiled by just driving across the state of Florida and get on a ship out of Miami or Fort Lauderdale

Good video. Thanks for taking time to share it! Interesting to compare cruise lines. Carnival owner suites are the equivalent of 7 balcony rooms, about twice as big as RCL's and there are only 2 on each ship.. Any suite is nice, but this one doesn't compare well to other cruise line owner's suites. Still, I'd take it, if the price is right!

Think I'll go with the sky loft. This just doesn't strike me as worth it.
@mikecruz98677 жыл бұрын
I'm not sure what the sky loft is, but the crown loft is about the same price as the owners suite. the owners suite is 556 square feet with a 243 square foot balcony that allows for table and chairs, two lounge chairs. The crown loft is 545 square feet with a 114 square foot balcony. I just like more room outside and don't care to climb the steps to get to the main bed room. But to each his own. There is the royal loft an star loft but that's ugly money for those rooms - however you do get your own personal "genie" (butler)

@OMGWTFLOLSMH5 жыл бұрын
The sky loft is dumb if you're sharing the suite with other people. There's no noise privacy upstairs. Everyone can hear everything you're doing up there because it's open to below, and vice versa. Curtains do not block sound. Pass.

Yep, for 'world cruise traveling' I suppose that anything less than a thousand square feet wouldn't feel right. Since about 99 percent of this ship's time is spent on cruises about a week long, the suite looks pretty big to me.
