Cruise question about obstructed view?

Question

So for an oceanview room on the princess diamond, it says obstructed view. Does that mean there is a life boat, or deck or something in the way?

Answer 1

Yes, and those are rooms I wouldnt recommend as they are obstructed and your not getting what you pay for but they do knock the price down a little so you technically are but I would not recommend them but I would get that kind of stateroom but on a lower or higher deck.

Answer 2

you got it!

Answer 3

Obstructed view means there is probably a life boat that blocks most of the view from your window.  That is no fun.  True, it costs less but the Princess Diamond is a great ship so spend a little more for a cabin with unobstructed view.  Actually, a balcony cabin is the best way to cruise.  It is great to sit on the balcony in the evening with a cocktail or to have breakfast on your balcony.  It is well worth the extra cost.

Answer 4

Yes. Obstructed means something is blocking your view and it may be complete blockage.

Answer 5

Pretty much--it just means you won't be able to see only the ocean.

My advice is to skimp on the room and splurge on the excursions. You won't be spending a lot of time in your room anyway.

Answer 6

Ya theres something in the way, don't get that room. Go with a balcony room they're awsome ,sit out there ,relax,see things ,it's so relaxing. Worth every penny believe me.

Answer 7

yep
