Cove Balcony or Spa Balcony?

[Winterstale]

...that is the question.

 

We are booked in Cove balcony 2250 on the Magic -- it's underneath the excursion desk so I don't anticipate any noise issues.

 

We have some friends who are joining us on the cruise and they are planning to book a spa balcony. It's REALLY tempting to change our booking so that we can possibly connect the two rooms and hang out during the trip....but....I REALLY love the look of the Coves.

 

I've sailed in the spa cabins and love those too - but that water being so close is just SO cool!!!

 

Of course...we will end up having to buy the couples pass for the spa anyway....my DH is ADDICTED to the thalasso...

 

Opinions anyone???

We had 2288 cove on the Magic, great for getting on and off...stayed a little damp. Most coves do not catch a lot of sun , as lifeboats are above..close to the water is neat...:cool::cool::cool:

I would love to do a cove balcony to be so close to the water. But the spa balcony is smoke-free! The t-pool is a nice bonus!

Yes, we LOVE the spa amenities -- and if we get a cabin right next to our friends? We can opt to join the balconies...which would be very cool indeed :D

 

But every time I look at video of the Coves....sigh.

Well...since I sail myself and spend quite a LOT of time close to Caribbean water on a REAL sailboat? We went ahead and grabbed the only connecting spa balcony cabins :D - who knew there were only 2???
