Like quirky cabins? Check out these! My balcony opened onto the PROMENADE DECK: ruclips.net/video/Sg9NynxWReM/видео.html This cabin had a glass bathroom wall: ruclips.net/video/EvhmoI-OJa8/видео.html The cheapest cabin on a MEGASHIP: ruclips.net/video/mKHOhGD9Tp8/видео.html
Those cabins are just like that river cruise you did where the upper half window slides down and turns your whole room into a balcony. I like that feature. But I hate mini bars! I'd rather just have an empty fridge that I could put my own things in.
Apparently these infinite veranda’s massively reduce the drag on the ship when it’s sailing, which along with the parabolic bow make it a lot more fuel efficient. Given that most cruise ships are terrible polluters, I think it’s a move in the right direction! We sailed on Edge last week and Captain Tasos gave a 90 presentation in the theatre about the ship’s design!
Not sure if you ever mentioned this before, but you can actually ask your cabin steward to remove all the liquor/snacks/water that cost extra. I usually always do that on Day 1 so I can use the extra fridge space.
Something funny for the lady, let's see... A nervous guest asked the captain, "Do ships like this sink often?" The captain replied, "Not at all. They only sink once." 😂 Wonderful video, excellent job as always!
I LOVE that room!!! Since I'm a solo cruiser, the only thing I would need is for the beds to be pushed together to create a King/Queen size. The balcony is from my dreams, so thank you for sharing it with us, Emma!! 🤗
Apparently the parabolic bow (that this has and RC’s new Icon will have) does wonders for ship stability, which may explain why your sailing was very smooth 😅
We sailed across the Atlantic last autumn on Apex and she was a rockin. I actually love a few bouncy days so was more than happy. Had a great crossing on a great ship.
@4:00 Emma, you can ask for a kettle. They usually have them. I just got one on Celebrity Millennium in Alaska. It had a European plug, so I didn't even have to "waste" a US outlet to use it. You can also ask your steward to remove the mini bar for purchase items.
We had a great time on the Edge on the last cruise before Covid. The infinite veranda was great and not once was our window overridden by the crew. The food, entertainment, room and the decor was really impressive. Eden was our evening go-to. From our room we would often see the captain and her cat on the bridge. Wonderful ship!
For me the heat thing would be a deal breaker. That's why I love a traditional balcony, because the door closes and the outside air stays outside. A cabin like this on a cold weather cruise, like Alaska or Norway? Now that I wouldn't mind. Great video, as always!
My wife and I did back to backs on the Apex in February in an Infinity cabin. We never closed the blinds. I would prefer a regular balcony in the Caribbean but an Infinity in the Baltic and North Sea.
I can't wait to stay in this cabin. My mom and I will be on the Edge next June for an Alaska cruise. When I saw this cabin I just had to book it. I can imagine the fantastic views, and we can open the window to feel the chill in the air or close it and stay nice and cozy. I'm so excited!
We were on the Edge for a transatlantic cruise in Oct 2022 and had a room with the Infinity balcony. LOVED the ship, especially loved Eden restaurant! The only negative for us was the Infinity balcony. It never felt like a balcony, just felt like the room had a big window. Also, the Captain locked the window one day when we were in port, so not only in bad weather. Didnt like not having control. Will do the Edge class again, but only with a regular balcony. Oh, and the bathroom was spectacukar!
New follower here and you are delightful! Very informative too. We're on EDGE next June and I never understood the complaints on the Infinite balcony. BUT with you clearly explaining the issue with the daylight, I get it now. No sneaking a look out without lighting the whole room. And, by the way, the darn cross bar is ALWAYS right at my eye level, even with the traditional balconies. Lol..
Everything you described about this infinite verandah cabin was "spot on"! We loved the Edge...the decor, the size, the food, Eden, the entertainment, etc., but I like having an "actual" balcony.
I'd like to hear more about the person whose cruise was ruined by the library being too cold. I love books, but good grief, was that the only place to read on that ship?
Fantastic idea. Nice to sit outside without the noice, wind, cold and rain. Private solarium. That obstructing view bar when sitting down though. Sit on the floor. Also if the captain decides to lock the windows, you should still be able to roll it down an inch or two. If you don't remember to close the privacy screen at night with your room light on and dark outside, you become the only thing to look at. I think I would love this. Would still miss an actual balcony maybe.
I really think I would love this! I love that you could literally keep the window open while in bed. I always have the windows open at home, never close any blinds/curtains.
I stayed in one of these a few months ago. Much better and more private than the old style. The beds are bigger, you get more storage, and you can close doors on the "balcony" so its a separate space. I also like they removed the useless permanent table. The hideaway one is sooo much better! Also, the views are far superior as you can see directly out to the sea. Makes it feel you are directly on the water.
Thanks for the video. There has been so much conflicting opinions about these balconies. We didn’t book one for that reason. It’s great to have a thorough review.
We just went on our first cruise, we watched our channel a lot to be prepared. A few things we think would be worth you talking about, how to pick excursions, we really didn’t like ours and we are not sure if that was what we picked or all excursions. And remind people to get ports way ahead of time. But your stuff was super helpful so glad we watched.
I took my very first cruise with my mom in Feb 2020 (yes, RIGHT before Covid!) and it was the best!!! We had such a great time! She passed away last year and I am so grateful for that wonderful memory with her. I hope you enjoyed your cruise with your mom! 🥰
I know I'm quite a bit late to comment on the video, but I just wanted to say that I think the word that you're looking for when you were talking about the bathroom needing a "zoomed in mirror" for makeup is a "magnified" mirror. At least I think so, lol. Anyhow, I hope you had a great trip on this cruise. I sincerely appreciate you sharing all of the details and info about these "new" styled rooms. I've never been on a cruise but would really like to in the near future, so I genuinely appreciate it the time and effort you put into making videos like this. Cheers!
I cruised this ship in March of 2024 - I had a suite, my niece had an "edge Cabin" like in this video; I actually liked her Stateroom better. People don't really USE balconies on ships ... but when she had her doors open and the room extended outside, it was awesome!
3:00 I think the concern about the cards is (at least my personal concern) is that these envelopes usually come with more than 1 card for double beds. If someone takes one, they can enter your cabin at a later time when everyone is unpacked. It would be great if it was as noticable as a missing card, but what if the stanger places a dud card in the envelope, so you and your cabinmate might go to exchange it for a working one without realising that it was purposeful. This way, any suspicions might just be casted as technical errors.
I stayed in a solo infinite veranda on Apex and absolutely loved it. My trip was to the Caribbean but this would be a great balcony to to Alaska as you can enjoy the view inside where it’s warm and cozy
OMG, I love this cabin. I would literally book this ship just for this room. I wonder if they could refit this into older ships. Alaksa cruises would be awesome
Brilliant review, thank you! We're on Celebrity Edge next year and we booked an Infinity Veranda on deck 10. Thanks to you we know exactly what to expect and we LOVE it!
I don't like the items being in your room but there is an upcharge to consume them. I have asked my room attendant to remove them as space is so limited and he quickly removed them.
We absolutely love everything about the Veranda and the room itself & bathroom. It was just hands down the best view from indoors. Took a trip to the hot Bimini Beach Bahamas and quickly jumped back on Celebrity Beyond. We described it as Perfect!
Thanks for doing this video, Emma. I want to go on the Edge in a balcony cabin but when I saw what they had done to it, I thought no thanks, I’d go for a standard cabin. But I keep an open mind so it’s interesting to see a video specifically on this one topic. Thank you.
I love balconies and experiencing the weather, so I think the Infinite Veranda would be a second best for me,but still way better than going out on deck to get fresh air.
Particularly for people with energy limiting conditions so you can rest without a view. It seems like a great way to get lots of light and air through the room but still be able to use the space if the weather is bad.
I suppose Zoomed in works, but I think the word you were looking for was a magnifying mirror. Like the magnifying glass that often signifies the Zoom function in tech!
This room looks like it was a great compromise between an ocean view and a traditional balcony, and given the right price I think this would be a nice option if your budget could not go as far for a traditional balcony cabin. I can see where you would need to have a great understanding with your cabin mate or travel with someone on your same schedule otherwise this cabin wouldn't be worth it if you argued heavily over natural light. All-in-all the space looked bigger than some hotels I've stayed in so I'd give this cabin a go if it ever was an option.
My wife and I were on the Apex in February for back to backs. We never used the blinds. But enjoyed the sea view. Both balcony styles have their pros and cons. A lot where you are cruising. In the Caribbean I would prefer the regular balcony. In the Baltic and North Sea the Infinity.
We loved the infinite veranda on Edge. Our first time on the vessel, we slept with it open every night except the last (the waves were way too loud)! Can't wait for our November sailing on the Beyond in a infinite veranda stateroom :-D
@@EmmaCruises Quite. But we’re both early risers. I tried to get our room attendant to keep the blind open, but I think they closed it every night during the evening turnover service.
Neat video! I didn't know they used the Magic Carpet to load and unload the tenders. That is a super cool idea! Also, Captain Hudson is really cute. :)
The wife likes to sleep in, and I am an early bird. That said, a regular balcony works out better for us. With a traditional balcony, I can be as quite as a mouse because the balcony door (or slider) offers less noise, less light, and the AC keeps running.
I love it, but I think the curtain is a dealbreaker for me. Also, I can imagine people being mad for not being able to open the window whenever they want, because the captain overrules it.
The only reason the Captain will overrule the open window is safety. You can bet some asshol guest wanting to experience the hurricane full force with his open window!
I think I would hate this verandah. There’s definitely a difference between having a real balcony vs a giant open window. I’ve never cruised, but I always get a balcony room on coastal vacations, and it makes a difference!
3:08 I think people are usually worried about someone hiding in the room waiting for them, or someone placing a hidden camera. both would be very scary!
But if they took your keys, you can't get it. You would have to go to guest services and they can see if someone opened that door and would send security. I don't think that some of you realize how they know everything that goes on on the ships
@@isthatrubble The envelopes are sealed. It would be VERY evident right away if someone had opened it up. You don't think that cruise lines have thought of all of this? It is not an issue at all.
My husband and I have come to prefer a balcony. The arrangement in this cabin wouldn't work for us. I need to keep the cabin cool as I overheat easily. My husband likes to check the weather/sunshine so the motorized blinds don't work either. Thanks for the review so we don't have to try this for ourselves.
I loved our infinite balcony on the Edge in May. Saying that,it was pleasant enough to sleep with the window open at night and not too hot during the day. So it worked well for us.
I love having a traditional balcony as I like to go out in the night to warm up! I’m talking about the Caribbean of course not Norway 😂. To me sitting in the sun in privacy is wonderful even though the handrail is also at the exact height of my eyes, just like yours. Celebrity is my cruise line of choice but not the edge class ships - give me the S class every time. Thank you for confirming I’m right ❤
That cabin looks pretty skookum to me. I don't think I'd mind it all. Emma was styling and profiling the entire video so I was impressed. Enjoyed the video.
My husband and I came off our first cruise with an infinite verandah. We agreed that the negatives outweighed the positives of that room. We'll stick to the traditional balcony. Also "row" is American English as well.
It's a window, not a balcony, I prefer the traditional one. The chairs in the so-called balcony are the most uncomfortable chairs ever, why do I want to sit in dining room chairs on a balcony, I want something relaxing that I can put my head back and chill out, it would also be nice if my feet reached the floor. Also, if you're in the room with an early riser and they want to go out there to lift the shade, it lights up the room while your trying to sleep.
the balcony isn't what you think of when you think of a balcony, but that it has the floor to ceiling window is amazing.. can just imagine waking up and being able to fully see that view
i heard from another vloger that the veranda balcony window can be locked by the bridge. they said it happened a few times when they wanted to use it. do you know if it can be locked?

Those cabins are just like that river cruise you did where the upper half window slides down and turns your whole room into a balcony. I like that feature.
But I hate mini bars! I'd rather just have an empty fridge that I could put my own things in.
We call it a row. Like row your boat and I always thought it was weird no it isn’t because you explained it.
Not sure if you tried this.
You could shut those doors.
Than open the shades.
That might stop the light from going in.

We sailed on Edge last week and Captain Tasos gave a 90 presentation in the theatre about the ship’s design!
Oh really?! I had no idea about that. That’s awesome. 🙏🙏
Really nice fun fact about the design.
The infinite verandas must be great on colder itineraries such a large inhibited view in your room
But do you know if the ship is christian enough to sail?
So a ship like the ones way back with just portholes would even be better?
Not sure if you ever mentioned this before, but you can actually ask your cabin steward to remove all the liquor/snacks/water that cost extra. I usually always do that on Day 1 so I can use the extra fridge space.
Thank you! That stuff always get in the way
Yup, the hotel I used to work for would do this as well if asked 🤗
They are so hugely busy on day 1, I don't bother them.
My thoughts too I feel bad giving them more work 😅❤️
@@oneseeker2 Such a shame. Someone being busy doing their job..Imagine
Something funny for the lady, let's see... A nervous guest asked the captain, "Do ships like this sink often?" The captain replied, "Not at all. They only sink once." 😂 Wonderful video, excellent job as always!

Thank you! 😁❤️
Some ships sank multiple times before they couldn’t be recovered or were taken out of service.
😅💯
I LOVE that room!!! Since I'm a solo cruiser, the only thing I would need is for the beds to be pushed together to create a King/Queen size. The balcony is from my dreams, so thank you for sharing it with us, Emma!! 🤗
Solos on all the edge class are infinite balconies and the showers are bigger. It's all for you. It's fabulous,.
Can you move the bed? Or at least the matress?
Apparently the parabolic bow (that this has and RC’s new Icon will have) does wonders for ship stability, which may explain why your sailing was very smooth 😅

I'd like to hear more about the person whose cruise was ruined by the library being too cold.
I love books, but good grief, was that the only place to read on that ship?
On my last cruise the library was too noisy! I ended up in the cigar lounge until someone wanted to use it to smoke a cigar!
Me too wtf
What an absolute Diva that person must be.
Not a balcony. Just a large window that opens.
Some people will complain about anything!
That is my DREAM cabin!!!! Ive always wanted something in between a window and a balcony. Its perfection!

You got shouted out in Trek Trendy’s new video! That’s not funny, but it is cool!! 🙌
What did the cruise ship say to the other cruise ship, nothing, they can only sea each other.
Why can you never tell a joke to a kleptomaniac?
They take everything literally
I absolutely love how you check out such polarizing cruises and options!🥳
I really think I would love this! I love that you could literally keep the window open while in bed. I always have the windows open at home, never close any blinds/curtains.

A new video from Emma! Something to look forward to when my workday is done! 😊
Awwh thanks so much, hope your day goes okay! :)
The balcony looks great, but I wish the balcony railing went a little down. Seems to high, especially for short people and while sitting down.
Ha ha, thats true they must have some rules about it. Thanks for watching 😀👏🏼
I have had that problem on every cruise I've been on and I'm 5'8". The balcony rail is always at eye level. I always end up standing.
@@EmmaCruisesthe railing can't be under the middle or the top window would not fit when open.
Yes!!! Most ships railings are blocking the view while I sit out!! Grr.

I stayed in a solo infinite veranda on Apex and absolutely loved it. My trip was to the Caribbean but this would be a great balcony to to Alaska as you can enjoy the view inside where it’s warm and cozy
Sounds good! 😁🥳
I also have a Norway Cruise booked on Apex next May in solo cabin and would think it will be just perfect for that.
So how cold do Alaska cruises get in summer? Just curious bc I've seen many comments about this being a good design for them.
Emma, you’re a natural, no need to feel nervous! Thank you for your review. 😊
OMG, I love this cabin. I would literally book this ship just for this room. I wonder if they could refit this into older ships. Alaksa cruises would be awesome

But if they took your keys, you can't get it. You would have to go to guest services and they can see if someone opened that door and would send security. I don't think that some of you realize how they know everything that goes on on the ships
@@jaklg7905 they could open the door, then put the card back as they found it, and you would have no idea.
@@isthatrubble The envelopes are sealed. It would be VERY evident right away if someone had opened it up. You don't think that cruise lines have thought of all of this? It is not an issue at all.
0:10 That's a beautiful dress!! The colour looks very good with you! :)
Thank you! 😁❤️
My husband and I have come to prefer a balcony. The arrangement in this cabin wouldn't work for us. I need to keep the cabin cool as I overheat easily. My husband likes to check the weather/sunshine so the motorized blinds don't work either. Thanks for the review so we don't have to try this for ourselves.
I loved our infinite balcony on the Edge in May. Saying that,it was pleasant enough to sleep with the window open at night and not too hot during the day. So it worked well for us.
So basically its a window
Shhhh don't let them hear you say that (yes) 🤫
What is a balcony but a floor to ceiling window that opens anyway 🤷🏽♀️
I love this cabin! Being able to open that window is great.
I have heard captains and engineers say balconies are not good for a ship. I’m watching this to hear, because like you I have heard it both ways.
As if pools or waterslides are good for the ship :)
I've never been on a cruise but you are an amazing ambassador for that industry
I’d be worried about bugs and the heat with that room, for sure
Didn't see a bug! ha ha. Thanks for watching 😀👏🏼
Don’t really get bugs at sea!
I love having a traditional balcony as I like to go out in the night to warm up! I’m talking about the Caribbean of course not Norway 😂. To me sitting in the sun in privacy is wonderful even though the handrail is also at the exact height of my eyes, just like yours. Celebrity is my cruise line of choice but not the edge class ships - give me the S class every time. Thank you for confirming I’m right ❤
Not sure I'd really call that a balcony - more like a window that opens!
A different cruising experience! I love the variety on this channel.
Thank you! 😁❤️
would be great for the kids, safe and lots to see.
A great review all around. I am now ready for my upcoming trip on the Celebrity Ascent.
Thanks.
That cabin looks pretty skookum to me. I don't think I'd mind it all. Emma was styling and profiling the entire video so I was impressed. Enjoyed the video.
🥳🥳🥳
@@EmmaCruisesyou didn't ask what Skookum means..I am surprised
@@marklittle8805without googling, does it mean fine, or ok, or acceptable?
I had to look it up.
Sorry I don’t speak Ewok.
SO EXCITED! 🩵🌞🏝️💛🌞🩵🌞💛💛🌞🩵🏝️🏝️💛🏝️🩵🩵🩵🌞🏝️
Thank you! 😁❤️
@@EmmaCruisesYour welcome 😊
Emma, I assumed when you say a zoomed-in mirror that you mean a magnifying mirror for doing makeup?
YES!! MAGNIFY! Thats the word I wanted. ha ha.
So so much more than our last bucket list trip , California Zephyr. Got an opening for one last bucket list trip.😊
The library was too cold? She could have put on a sweater!
So true, or got a blanket!! Ha ha. Thanks for watching 😀👏🏼
My husband and I came off our first cruise with an infinite verandah. We agreed that the negatives outweighed the positives of that room. We'll stick to the traditional balcony.
Also "row" is American English as well.
It's a window, not a balcony, I prefer the traditional one. The chairs in the so-called balcony are the most uncomfortable chairs ever, why do I want to sit in dining room chairs on a balcony, I want something relaxing that I can put my head back and chill out, it would also be nice if my feet reached the floor.
Also, if you're in the room with an early riser and they want to go out there to lift the shade, it lights up the room while your trying to sleep.
Fun review. Great energy. Thanks.
On European river boats, these balconies were called French balconies. Don't ask me why, I don't know.
I loooove your videos!!! Thank you!!! Please keep them coming!!!
Thanks so much 🥹❤️
That is NOT a balcony, that's an open window
Just found your video's and are addicted. Your fantastic in your presentation.
Much love from Scotland.
Thanks so much 🥹❤️
I think it's a great setup, that infinite balcony.
Thanks for watching 😀👏🏼
the balcony isn't what you think of when you think of a balcony, but that it has the floor to ceiling window is amazing.. can just imagine waking up and being able to fully see that view
i heard from another vloger that the veranda balcony window can be locked by the bridge. they said it happened a few times when they wanted to use it. do you know if it can be locked?
If you keep watching the video I talk about that :D
They lock it for window cleaning and in bad weather. Happened once on our cruise - only lasted an hour
