Sky Princess Balcony Cabin Review_ Everything You Need to Know

Launched in 2019, Sky Princess is one of the newest ships in the Princess Cruises fleet. In this video, I'm going to be taking you on a tour around a balcony cabin situated on Deck 14. Hello, I'm Steph from CruiseWithAmber. If you're new to this channel, I upload content to help you get the most value out of your cruise, whatever your budget.

As there are cabins above and below, this makes for a quiet balcony space, which is quite near to the aft lifts. So let me take you on a quick tour throughout the layout of the room first, and then I'll cover off in more detail the main cabin storage, the bathroom, and finally the balcony. The decor in this main cabin is serene and relaxing, and it goes without saying that the Princess Bed offers an extremely comfortable and refreshing night's sleep. While the layout of the cabin might be very similar to other Royal Class ships, the layout of this balcony cabin managed to provide ample storage without making the room feel cluttered. In the corner there's a small vanity desk, and whilst this isn't huge, it still packs in the essentials and makes a great use of this space. I sailed on Sky Princess during one of her summer sea-cations in the UK, and so there were tea and coffee making facilities in the cabin, although I'm unsure about whether this is available as standard. On the vanity unit there are several European and American plug sockets, and this is where the cabin phone is also located. Despite the fantastic app and technology available on Medallion Class ships, Princess provided me on my sailing with paper copies of the itinerary and useful information. This was a nice touch, as once in a while it's nice to have a physical paper copy when you're planning your day. Another nice touch is the USB ports which are available and integrated within the lights on each of the nightstands next to the bed. What I also liked is that the space between the bed and the partition to the walk-in wardrobe didn't feel cramped or small. While you see the bed set up as a double in this video, it can also be configured as two singles. On the other side of the cabin you'll find another smaller vanity unit with a mirror, and this also incorporates the mini fridge and some additional shelves. Cabin TV provides you with all the information you need, including your muster video, and there is an impressive array of entertainment available, such as films, TV programs and documentaries. Let's move on now to the walk-in wardrobe and storage area. Again, there is an impressive amount of storage within this cabin. The tall cupboard contains five shelves, and here you'll also find the cabin space, which thankfully is large enough to fit a small laptop, so well done there Princess Cruises. There's plenty of hanging space in the open wardrobe. You'll find your princess robes, which you can use during your stay, and also the laundry bag. I do like this open wardrobe design because it's a perfect place to store your cases if they don't fit under the bed. In the hallway you'll find the usual emergency information, but the temperature controls are located near to the TV. Moving into the bathroom area, the bathroom is a standard size, and whilst the countertop space is small, it is adequate, plus you have plenty of shelving above. The shower also has a small ledge, which is perfect to store bottles, and you'll also find a retractable washing line. Near the shelves on the vanity unit you'll also find the shaver point. Come with me now as I show you around the balcony. The design of the Royal Class ships means that the balcony space is slightly less deep than you might find on other classes of ships in the Princess Cruises fleet. However, the size is perfect to sit out on and enjoy a morning coffee or an evening glass of wine as the sun goes down. So thanks for watching this short video.
