Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm going to explain why you should not do this as well as of course offer some alternatives.

the cruise lines frown upon this idea because for starters, you have to imagine that if you are sailing on your average Caribbean cruise

I take about 20 cruises a year, I know what goes down on those balconies. And let me tell you, there is all kinds of litter and dirt and fluids that then get onto that mattress.

the outside elements alone could cause the mattress to be not only dirty, but get moldy as well.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Buy an air mattress at the store and bring it on board
Ask your room steward to bring in a rollaway mattress
Use the lawn chairs that the cruise lines provide
