I wanted to put out some info that I was looking for before our cruise and could not find. I wanted a cove balcony room, which I had on the Disney cruise and LOVED, but was talked into moving to a higher floor if the 'upgrade' was free. I was sorry that I did this, as I later found out the we'd be on top of a newly designed promenade deck for the Breeze. This deck is also known as the veranda deck and it protrudes outwards underneath all of the balcony rooms. The cove rooms are built into the ship and have gigantic life boats hovering over them, so no one can see into your balcony unless they are in the ocean outside your window, but you're on the 2nd floor of the ship and there are 12 floors on this ship (with horrible elevators that take FOREVER to pick you up and get you to your new destination). The deck I picked was deck 6, mid ship starboard side (all odd numbered rooms) and directly over this promenade "veranda deck". The deck is designed to allow people to walk entirely around the ship without having to go inside at all and it's outside areas like the casino, the theater and the night club. I was worried that we constantly have people looking into our balcony and room. When we finally got to see our room, we were pleasantly surprised to find that the only way people could see into your room is if the were 20 feet tall. If you're standing on your balcony (in this particular room), no one would see you unless they happened to be walking under your deck for some strange reason.

There are nothing but lounge chairs taking up most of the walking space under these balconies and so people were either walking directly under you or laying in a lounge chair, sunbathing. We didn't have a hot tub (there are 2 on each side of the ship on the promenade deck) directly under us. I'm glad about that because, yes, they would be watching our balcony at all times and those hot tubs were raised. You had to walk up about 6 steps to get into the hot tubs. The hot tubs close at night and early morning, but when they were open, there was always someone in there.

On Fun Days at Sea (no ports days), Fat Jimmy's BBQ was open for business until about 2:30 pm. Fat Jimmy's was about 10 cabins aft from us, so the seating was also NOT under us. In other words, this is a good cabin, directly over the FUN HUB and really quiet. Nice view of the ocean, not to high and not too low. We also got to watch all of the people running back up the piers, late from their excursions, while everyone on the starboard side cheered them on. It was fun! Read more
