The review
Category SA is a 355 sq ft suite with an outside balcony on the Violin Deck, the upper of the two balcony decks. It is the same size as Category SB one deck down and costs a little more for the higher position. With meals, wine at lunch and dinner and excursions included, it is a sensible choice for couples who want a proper sitting area without Grand Suite prices.
For
- 355 sq ft with an outside balcony
- Upper cabin deck
- Four restaurants, beer and wine at meals and port excursions included
Against
- Costs about $86 a night more than the same-sized SB suite one deck below
- Gratuities and premium drinks are extra
