Creator's Key Takeaways

sometimes a balcony cabin can actually cost double the amount of an inside cabin therefore the conclusion is if you take an inside cabin you can cruise twice as much for the same amount of money

if you have very young children that need to be supervised you're gonna save yourself a little bit of a worry by getting an inside cabin

you literally have no natural light at all so you will be in the darkest spot that you could ever imagine so if you love this you will love an inside cabin

we were really happy that we got an inside cabin the price was awesome and we were able to use that couple thousand dollars that we saved on the cruise to do all of those excursions

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Book an inside cabin if you only use your room to change clothes and sleep
βœ“Choose an inside cabin for safety when traveling with young children
βœ“Get a guaranteed cabin location to save even more money
βœ“Consider booking balcony cabins for teens across the hall from parents
βœ“Check if promotions make balcony cabins similarly priced to inside cabins
