Since we have balcony views in some of the other forums, I thought it would be fun to have one here.
Please share your view :cool:

I don’t have anything to share at the moment but maybe in the fall. :)
 
Balcony views of Nassau Bahamas while on Grandeur of the Seas in April 2024. Also watching the Carnival Conquest depart port ahead of us.

A good thing about views from a balcony during a cruise is that the view changes depending on where the ship is located at the time. Another good thing about cruising is that even interior cabin guests can get a good view by walking to a location on the ship that has a view. Either outside on certain decks or on the pool deck, etc. We enjoy taking walks for exercise on the outside deck and love the views while we do it. Helps to offset some of overeating too! 😀
 
We are currently in Split, Croatia for the final stop on our Greek Island cruise before returning to Ravenna, Italy. Here is the view from our balcony. Very nice city.

Balcony was 4x price of the inside, so that's what we booked for our first ever cruise.

View from our balcony
We haven't sailed with Celebrity yet, but I'm interested. So what is that type of balcony or cabin called? Does the outside window open? Looks like it would be lovely - you could enjoy the view without regard for the weather!

That one from @alwaysonvac is on an Edge Class Ship. It's called an 'Infinity Balcony'.
The one below is our accessible cabin on Celebrity Eclipse. an additional 80 sq ft and a roll-in shower.

Sorry for the delay. Just made it to our first port in Papeete, Tahiti. It's our first time sailing on Celebrity.

As stated above, this balcony stateroom is on their edge class ships

Gee. It doesn't LOOK upside down! :)

I figured at least one TUGger was a flat earther… but honestly, I would have thought it would have been someone else!
