Cabin: Aft-View Extended Balcony

I would have given this cruise a 5, except for the small balcony cabin and water that tasted like swamp water.

Since the balcony cabins on the Fascination were apparently just added on to the ship a few years ago, the balcony cabins are really just outside cabins and are very small. We took this same cruise 2 years ago on the Valor and had a VERY spacious balcony cabin - it was wonderful. In comparison, the Fascination balcony cabin was tiny - no love seat or sofa, just one small chair. The lack of space for our snorkel gear etc. made the cabin feel very cramped. Our cabin attendant (Rafael) always kept our cabin neat and clean. He was very courteous and we were grateful to have such and excellent cabin attendant.

We had an aft facing balcony, and it was fabulous. The balcony was actually big enough to sit on comfortably, and listening to the sea/wake was a very pleasant experience.
