Epic- Aft Balcony vs. Spa Balcony?

[towel-animal]

Hi everyone! I'm new to CC and I need some advice. I am really torn between booking an Aft Balcony or a Spa Balcony on the Epic West Caribbean itinerary. Never sailed in an aft balcony before, but I've heard the view is unmatched. But the included access to the spa seems really nice, too. I know I can purchase a spa pass separately if I go with the aft. Just curious which cabin you would pick and why?

I'm not big on the spa, so I would definitely pick aft.

There are a limited number of spa passes available per cruise. You might not get one. If the spa is important to you I would go with the spa balcony. That is what I did.

Can't really answer this, but wanted to say I love your username!

I'd get an aft and pay the $200 for a spa pass if you want it. You won't have a problem getting one if you visit the spa for their tour after you embark.

I'm with you Mike, up to now I've only had the pleasure of seeing aft balconies on cabin crawls, but I was always truly impressed by that amazing view. I have my first one booked on the Sun next May and I am looking forward to it AND Alaska! By the way, when I was on the Gem earlier this year, they were selling the spa passes at the terminal on the day of embarkation. That's where I bought mine. :)
