Any info or pictures on Cabin 6680?

 

[BelleProfHP]

I'm also wondering about cabin 6690. I've seen the pics posted earlier of the verandah but am wondering about the cabin itself - specifically if it has a fold-out bed or just the sleeper. :

also request these pictures become a sticky.

Hi everyone -- I was fortunate enough to stay in stateroom 8682 on the May 1st sailing of the Dream
It is a HA cabin on the Aft of the ship -- category 6A -- here are some pics! I would HIGHLY recommend this cabin!

(Ignore my DBF in the mirror )

(bathroom door)

And now...the amazing verandah!!!

Walk out the door and look to the right:

Let me know if anyone has any questions

OMG, this cabin is bigger than I thought.
We're actually booked in this 8682 cabin and it's sister cabin 8184 for our next 3 cruises.
Looks like you can have a huge party in there.
How many beds are there available ?
Any idea of the square footage ?
Is there a rain like shower head in the ceiling of the bathroom like in the family staterooms ?
Are there any divider curtains to separate the sleeping from siiting areas ?
How was the noise level from the connecting cabin next door ?
Did you enjoy it?
Thank you for posting these pictures, I'm dying to do a cabin tour to show off now.

We're booked in this room on the Fantasy in 2012, and I'm hoping to also reserve 8684 (connecting) when we cruise in 3 weeks.

Thanks so much for showing your pics!

Hi Jessica
just bumping to see if you were able to answer my questions?

 

[ForTheLoveOfDCL]

I would love the extra space. If they happen to move me to an HA room that's fine but I will never book one cause I wouldn't want someone who needs it not to have it.....So Disney if ur listening--if it's not taken by someone I am available...LOL

We got one of the rooms with the white obstruction...looks like only a foot or so , so I am not making a big deal about it. I am just glad it's not a connecting room. Those are HARD to find!! My DD's and DH will be happy when they walk in and see a verandah. We haven't had one since 2006, then oceanviews after that so the 500 more was a must to see my family smile from ear to ear....OK now I got myself all excited about the trip....it's over a yr and 4 months away

Hi there
How many beds are there available ? "Main" bed, there was the bed in the ceiling over the couch to pull down if needed -- and I'm not sure if the couch folded into a bed (I never even thought to check )
Any idea of the square footage ? I have absolutely no idea -- this was my first cruise (my first stateroom!), so I really don't have anything to compare it to
Is there a rain like shower head in the ceiling of the bathroom like in the family staterooms ? There was only the shower head that you can see in the pic -- no other ones in the ceiling!
Are there any divider curtains to separate the sleeping from siiting areas ? Nope! There are not any curtains to separate the room.
How was the noise level from the connecting cabin next door ? I never heard a peep - Now, I don't know if that is because we had quiet neighbors, or if the soundproofing was to credit
Did you enjoy it? YES!! Haha, the cruise was amazing! And having an amazing stateroom just made it all the better

I, too, have the opinion that I would never book a HA stateroom - just incase there was a guest who really DID need it! BUT, this was Disney assigning this room to us - I'LL TAKE IT!

Thank you Jessica
your answers have been a big help.
As for being a handicap accessible room, this cabin has NOT been allocated as one. According to the DCL castmembers, there are some parameters that do not make it and some of the other large aft 6A cabins qualify as a full HA .

Yes, I heard the same info on this room, both from DCL and my T/A. This room doesn't have all the things required by the ADA to be classified as a Handicap Accessible room.

Im so excited to have this room...I lucked up on this one. Great pics...Thanks!

Hello All! Just booked my very first cruise ever, pretty excited but also very nervous. We got room 10054 on the Dream - has anyone had this stateroom? I'm really hoping its a good one (but never having cruised, i have no idea!)

 

[Jessica_Mouse]

Thanks so much...I will be in this room on June 7th...I know I will love it. How was the shower?

It was nice -- the drains in the floor right around it made it so that the rest of the bathroom floor stayed dry I was surprised that there was only one very small shelf on the corner of the shower -- my DBF and I ended up just putting our shampoo/bodywash/etc. on the floor of the shower.
The only negative about the bathroom was that there was not the 'split' style, with the two separate areas. But the bathroom being so large made up for it

We just booked room # 10662, anyone had this room previously on the dream? I have read "Solid White Verandah" how high is the solid white, is it worth paying up for a fully clear (plexiglass) verandah or are we better off with a room in the 8A or 8B category. The CM I spoke with stated that the rooms in 8A had had two 59" portholes, and that in 8B(room 9008) there is just one 59" porthole both with seating, can anyone confirm these details?

Haven't had any time to work on this recently, but made a little progress on it today.

You're comparing two very different room types so it depends on what is most important to you. I wouldn't be concerned about the solid white wall part of the verandah on the Dream, since it's only a foot or two tall (knee or calf height depending on how tall you are) and hasn't been reported as a problem by anyone so far.

We've booked a 6A verandah room for the Fantasy MV over a Cat 8A or 8B room because it was actually cheaper to do so. The 8B rooms are regular family porthole rooms that may sleep up to 5 with the extra large porthole window with the small seating area on the bottom of the window and the round tub and overhead shower. The 8A rooms each have two of the extra large porthole windows in them, but they include a variety of really strange configurations (some open, others with a partial wall like a little suite, only sleep 3 or 4, not 5), often without the split bath since many were originally planned to be accessible rooms. Because of their size and spaciousness, they seem to be running at a price premium despite their proximity to the theatres and Vibe.

Thank you so much for all the time and effort you have put into this and shared with us from the beginning. It is truly appreciated!

Thanks HallsofVA for this post and the photos. (By the way, I grew up in Reston, right next door! Miss the area).

I was looking for info on 8186, we booked on the Fantasy next year. The pictures help answer some of my questions about the veranda. Now I'm wondering how the breeze is (or isn't) back on the aft verandas. I am not worried about the noise or engines as much as being comfortable when we sit out there. Going in November so hopefully the breeze is light because the weather should be cool!
