barjpoe Posted April 19 Report Share Posted April 19 I think they are not selling. Just got an Royal Up for my Icon cruise May 18th and they are offering an Infinite Balcony for $30 down from $75. Not going to bid like my regular balcony. Any comments? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JasonOasis Posted April 19 Report Share Posted April 19 Personally I don't like the infinite veranda. While I haven't' yet set sail on Icon I did sail on Celebrity Apex just this past March on a 7 night cruise and we booked a infinite veranda and I personally would never book that category of room again. In my opinion the infinite veranda is more like a room with a window than a room with a balcony. I like being able to wake up in the morning and if I want to just sit outside I can do that without turning off the air conditioning in the room. My husband sometimes sleeps in but if I have the window open on the infinite veranda after like 20-30 minutes the room is hot which isn't comfortable for him while trying to sleep. It is a unique room/balcony but I will say it isn't for everyone or for every couple. We both loved our first experience on Celebrity but we both agreed that we would never book a infinite veranda ever again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan79 Posted April 19 Report Share Posted April 19 I did an infinite balcony on Celebrity and wasn’t a fan of the concept. Not a surprise if they aren’t selling. Looks like I had the same experience as @JasonOasis above! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barjpoe Posted April 19 Author Report Share Posted April 19 I wonder if Star will still have them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen it stay available the longest. However, I had to bid minimum $170pp to get mine. What category are you in that the bid was only $30?

mom2mybugs Posted April 21 Report Share Posted April 21 I’m glad to hear all the opinions, as we have been considering a celebrity cruise. I watched an Emma cruises video and she also mentioned the issue of light in the room…you can’t have an early riser be on the balcony (on a reg. Balcony cabin) but instead it causes a light issue if one person wants to be “outside” in the virtual balcony room. That’s a game changer if we are spending money on a balcony room with the expectation my early waking husband won’t wake me up!

RCIfan1912 Posted April 21 Report Share Posted April 21 I'm one of the few that would LOVE these rooms. #1 I'm not a fan of heights so kinda being in the room just with a very large window that opens would be better than a balcony. #2 we barely use the balcony now anyway. I love this idea in general. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjcruisers Posted April 21 Report Share Posted April 21 Would like to try it one day. I can see the pros and cons. I’m the early riser, but usually go to top to walk around and watch the sun rise RCIfan1912 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
