Is Caribe deck the best balcony

I assume this pertains to a Grand Class Ship and that "Bahamas" was an auto correct for "Baha". If so...

The decision depends on your wants and needs. The two cabins will be identical except for the balcony which will be much, much larger on Caribe with both a covered portion and an open sky portion. If balconies are an important feature for you, then I would pay extra for the added space. But if a balcony is something you just walk out onto once in a while, save your money.

Mid-ship Caribe is best location on the ship IMO. We have tried all over. Lido is pretty cool because you are close to a lot of stuff. But if you value balcony, Caribe is best. We have Caribe balcony mid-forward for 8 day eastern Caribbean on Crown coming up in March. 3 at sea days and I can't wait to camp out on balcony with a book and watch the flying fish come off the bow wave. It's going to be great!

If having a rather large balcony is important to you, Caribe would certainly be an excellent choice.

Then again, if you only need a smaller balcony area (which is enough for two straight chairs/small table), another deck that saves you money is something to consider. ;)

Somehow we lucked out on our very first cruise and ended up with a Caribe balcony. Yesterday we returned from the 15-day Hawaiian cruise on the Star where we original booked an inside cabin for the first time. But when we received the email from Princess for a balcony upsell and found a Caribe balcony room available, we abandoned the inside cabin!! Love, love, love the Caribe balcony (as far aft as possible preferably). You definitely made the right decision...enjoy!
