Rare Smellytoes Posted April 22, 2010 #1 Share Posted April 22, 2010 Can anyone tell me the difference between these two suites?? Is one bigger than the other? Does one have a bigger balcony? This is on CB:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roe2ship Posted April 22, 2010 #2 Share Posted April 22, 2010 Can anyone tell me the difference between these two suites?? Is one bigger than the other? Does one have a bigger balcony? This is on CB:)The one difference that I know of is that L106 balcony is not private at all. There is a public observation deck right in front of the balcony where pax come and go throughout the day. Passengers have a full view onto your balcony. Also, the balcony is very narrow and it is very windy out there making the balcony useful on port days only. I would definitely choose C749, the view of the wake is worth it alone.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or am I crazy?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roe2ship Posted April 22, 2010 #4 Share Posted April 22, 2010 Yikes....3,000 extra? That is a huge difference! I guess it depends how important the suite amenities, larger cabin and balcony is to you. Personally, I wouldn't mind paying 1,000 extra but definitely not 3,000. I have stayed in C752 and LOVE it. You still get the wonderful view. Good luck in your decision and enjoy the Caribbean Princess.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerryr Posted April 22, 2010 #5 Share Posted April 22, 2010 I guess the difference could be in what you are comparing it to. We normally stay in an AA mini-suite so the Suite upgrade is about $600pp for most cruises. We won't do the upgrade every time but you can rationalize about 1/2 the cost with free internet, laundry, liquor set-up, thermal suite, etc but the rest is just for the sake of a little more luxury. Who doesn't spend more while on vacation then they do\would at home. ;) Getting double Captain Circle credit for the cruise has to be considered also if you are trying to achieve the next Captain Circle level as we are. That is worth something to, especially if your next level is Elite as ours is. Jerry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twice in suites and I have to say the extra space is great with the kids. Even though they have their own cabin they always wind up in mine:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe that's over 4000$$$$:eek::eek:. That's another cruise.lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's another cruise.lolIt sure is! With that said, it should make it easier to decide.;) BTW, 2700 for a 9 day in that category is pretty darn good.

That's why we're doing Princess instead of NCL. Longer cruise....less money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
