We have these 3 cabins 9174 9176 and 9674 booked for Dec 2012 ---can anyone answer a couple of questions please?

On the deck plans there is a "narrow gray area" shown between 9176 and 9674--does anyone know what this area is?

I understand the verandah dividers can be opened between cabins not just connecting cabins. Will we be able to have the verandahs "open" between all 3 of our cabins or do you think this "gray area" will prevent verandahs for 9176 and 9674 from being connected?

The pictures from earlier posts look like people standing all the way across these verandahs.

It would be so great if all 3 could be open and connectd to each other.

My other option is an earlier cruise in Dec in cabins 9172 9174 9176, but I am not sure I want the 9172 as it connects to 9170. I don't want a connecting room, if it is connecting with someone other than our travel party.

Thanks for any information

Here's a picture that amygrumpy took right after the Dream arrived in PC back in January. It's still one of the best shots I've seen of the aft verandah rooms (you can follow the picture address back to her album to see more pictures or to see this one bigger.)

I haven't seen or heard of that grey space on Deck 9 being anything (but I've also been swamped at work so it's possible someone has mentioned it elsewhere.) On Deck 5, the space is a door to the aft verandah for flag access. But even from blowing up this picture to it's original size, I still can't clearly see if there's anything there on decks 9 - 6 but space (such as other doors) given everything is all white!

The two connecting rooms you are looking at (9174 & 9176) should have verandahs that open up to each other. I hadn't heard anything about the verandahs opening between non-connecting rooms, (but then again I've been a bit distracted recently so might have missed that post.) So the verandah dividers should open to connect at least 1 of the rooms to the larger verandah in the middle. I just don't know if 9674 opens up onto 9176's verandah or not.

The earlier posts with the people on the verandah I believe were taken before all the dividers were in place, which you can see them all in place in the picture below.

We just booked 8510 (cat 8C) on the dream for a Feb 2012 cruise. I originally had a 9A room on deck 6, but decided we wanted the extra square footage of the family room. I was able to locate it on the deck plan nad pictures here (thanks to all that have posted them!). Has anyone traveled in this area of deck 8? Is it a good location?

 

[chipnpam]

Any word on 7108, Cat 4C Deluxe Oceanview with Verandah.....first time sailing so want to make sure we will have a great view and a pull down murphy bed. I can't seem to find it on any photos. Thanks

Wow, what a fantastic thread. OP, thanks for all the info and pictures!

Hi all, I have actually changed my room to 9672 as the verandah is bigger

I wanted either room 9170 0r 9670 but they were taken. Does anyone know why these rooms are so much bigger?

We have 9674 for our cruise - we looked last week to see which rooms were open in Cat 6A, and 9672 was open. I entertained the thought of changing rooms for the bigger verandah, but DH reminded me that 9672 was a connecting room.............

We decided to stay with 9674

What are the room numbers in the direct centre of the ship? The verandahs look bigger.

Starting from the top:
10166
9176
8188
7194
6192

On the 5th deck the verandah is not as wide because of the flag access so I didn't include it. I am booked in 8188 for March 2012 and I am excited. It is also the only center room with the bigger balcony that is not connecting.

I have actually changed rooms again lol! Gone for 9176 for the wider verandah!

Would love to see pics if anyone has any!!

Silverfox97 - we had 9674 on the Maiden Voyage. Great room. The balcony is deeper than normal, but average width. We were very happy with the room. Great view of Castaway Cay and Nassau ;-) Quiet location and only noticed the engine vibration the last morning as we were maneuvering into Port Canavaral. Enjoy!

Our friends had 9670, it was a large balcony because it is a handicapped accessible room.

Noticed the earlier question about the "grey area" between 9674 and the neighboring room. It is probably the storage closet between the two rooms used by the room stewards. 9674 is a non-connecting room.

I'll be glad to answer any other questions about the room!

Lin,

Thanks!! We booked it for our Eastern cruise on the Fantasy - very excited. I feel like that may be our favorite room, as there are only 3 non-connecting Cat 6A directly aft rooms (9674, 8188, 7690). Did you have a lounger or the typical 2 chairs and a table?

Hi DisneyDuo!! We are booked in 9674 on the July 1-5 2011 cruise. Do you happen to have any pictures of the room or verandah that you can post? I can't believe I looked through tons of pages and you actually were in the same room on the last post I look at Thanks so much

We are so excited for our trip

 

[myxdvz]

Whats your sail date? is it March 31st? I will be on that one!

Nope! That was our first choice but was no longer available when I booked (shocked!). We are on the March 24th sailing.

DisneyDuo just reported that the "gray area" is a storage closet on each floor that the CM's use.
As I was looking at the pictures of the very center rooms on each floor aft, I realized that those balconies are just a tad bit wider because of that gray area.....Disney widened those to make use of that storage space on the interior.

 

[justmestace]

On Deck 5, the space is a door to the aft verandah for flag access. But even from blowing up this picture to it's original size, I still can't clearly see if there's anything there but space given everything is all white!

There is a door there, on that deck space. It's hard to make out, but it's there. Obviously they access that deck space from the hall on Deck 5 through that door.

 

[princessmom29]

Ok, I have a quick question about staterooms 5190 and 6190. I realize that they are right by the flag on the back of the ship, and that is likely why they are cat. 6B. It the veranda on those really small, and will the flag prevent us from using the veranda? Overall, what does anyone with experience think of those rooms, and would it be worth it to switch to one of these from a family ocean view on the 8th deck?

ETA: 6192 is also available with e bigger veranda, but the flagpole is rigt there. Anyone have experience with how much of a porblem that poses?

 

[DisneyDuo]

Silverfox97 - in the stateroom itself, besides the bed there was just a couch (fold out bed?) and the desk with chair. Also I think there is the pull-down bed, but we didn't use it. Out on the balcony there were two chairs and a small table between them.

You and Cheloconnell (and anyone else interested) are welcome to look at our pictures at my Shutterfly sharesite -

Again, we were very happy with the room! Enjoy!

[jeannie2426]

Anyone stayed in 8186? I am on hold with DCL to see if we can get it!! More private than 5144 and $40.00 cheaper, so trying to see if I can switch!! Also, my BIL and SIL are on Deck 5 Aft and you cant get there from Deck 5 Forward without going up or down a floor. What's up with that?!?!

Thanks for sharing the pics!!! I think we are going to love that room on the Fantasy Too bad I will have to wait until June 16th, 2012.....

 

[DisneyDuo]

Silverfox97 - that's a long wait!!! We are thinking of doing the Fantasy in 2012 too - have to see how the $$$ comes along this year.

The Dream is a wonderful ship, I'm sure the Fantasy will be too. Definitely worth the wait!
