Creator's Key Takeaways

Even on a short three-ight cruise, the claustrophobia was real, and we're not sure we could have comfortably managed a longer sailing in this space.

Having a balcony really is special. And sailing out of Sydney Harbor is pure magic.

The cabin has the traditional walk-in robe leading to the bathroom, which is fairly standard, but still feels nice on a ship that's only a few years old.

Could you see yourself sailing on a long cruise with four people in this cabin?

Creator's Tips & Advice

Choose a portside cabin for views of the Sydney Opera House from your balcony.
Be prepared for a tight squeeze if sharing a standard balcony cabin with four people.
