Inside, Outside, Balcony or Suite?

Is it all about the cabins? Or is it all about the ship or destinations. This is something only you can really decide.

For me the cabins have no impact on the cruise I would book. Firstly I look at what options we have for our chosen dates, then we will select the best ship for us. Finally its the cabin and 99% of the time we will book an inside cabin. Our cruise on Allure I have selected a larger inside that gives Charlie a sofa bed rather than a pullman bed. Where possible I will always look for a sofa bed as I feel the upper berths can make the cabin feel really cramped.

We did take an ocean view once but the only reason we did was because at the time Celebrity Cruises offered a free drinks package on the Ocean View and above so it was a great offer at the time.

I have had Balcony cabins in the past and I must admit there is something magical about pulling into port nice and early having breakfast on your balcony.

Now suites come in all shapes & sizes from a Junior Suite to a Grand Suite. They can come with different benefits depending on the cruise line too.

So when it comes to cabins I am really not bothered. Its somewhere to get changed and somewhere to sleep. It really doesn’t need to be fancy as all my time is spent on deck or in port!

Do you like to book a balcony? Do you find you get lots of use out of the balcony? Maybe you prefer a suite for the benefits you get or the relaxing space in the cabin.

Let me know what you prefer. Some suite will even come with a butler to un pack your case for you!
