johnrich Posted March 20, 2017 #1 Share Posted March 20, 2017 DW and I are planning are planning a western Caribbean cruise on Escape in Sept or Oct. Prices for Aft Balcony and Spa Balcony are the same. Does anyone have a preference of one over the other? Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two Wheels Only Posted March 20, 2017 #3 Share Posted March 20, 2017 If you take the aft-facing balcony, you have the option to buy the Spa pass. If you take the Spa balcony (with included Spa access), you can't buy the larger aft-facing balcony. Remember, aft-facing balcony depths and even widths vary....choose wisely.

TSUmom Posted March 20, 2017 #4 Share Posted March 20, 2017 It depends on if you really want to use the spa services or not and if a small balcony is all you want. For us the large aft balcony hands down as we are too busy with other activities to use the spa. To others they love having the spa for relaxation.

miataman19 Posted March 20, 2017 #5 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Aft balcony for sure. I always check aft pictures of the ship I'll be sailing on to see which room has the larger balcony. They are different sizes. As said earlier you can purchase a spa pass. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly what I was going to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
$hip$hape Posted March 20, 2017 #7 Share Posted March 20, 2017 (edited) DW and I are planning are planning a western Caribbean cruise on Escape in Sept or Oct. Prices for Aft Balcony and Spa Balcony are the same. Does anyone have a preference of one over the other? For our upcoming TransAtlantic cruise, with so many sea days, we chose the Spa Balcony. We will spend more time in the Thermal Spa (been there) than on the balcony. (On other transatlantics it was "sold out".) If you have a "port intensive" itinerary, and plan to be out and about, skip the purchase of a Spa Pass.
