But, to each his own.

This makes me even more excited for my trip, and I already snagged a cat 6 room (6630).

Almost 75 days away from final payment and making reservations!

If it is within your budget spring for the veranda.

1. Have your morning coffee on the veranda while you Dh is still sound asleep
2. Have a front row seat for when you pull into and out of port
3. At night you can sit outside with a drink, relax under the stars and listen to the waves against the ship. *sigh*

We got the Navigators Verandah. We got the extra space, the light, the air, a romantic nook - all for less money than the regular verandah.

Back on my last Disney cruise I got restricted to my cabin due to illness by the ships doctor for 2 days. I'da gone nuts without my veranda.

I take a semi-annual cruise with girlfriends and we go as cheap as possible with inside staterooms so we can splurge on other treats - like Spa time. Inside rooms are definitely "sensory deprivation"! But a good value if you have other priorities for your vacation.
We made the "mistake" of going Verandah a couple of years ago and one you go Verandah, you'll never go back. It really spoils you! I recommend a Verandah room for anyone who has little kids who need to be in bed by 9-10 pm so that you can still enjoy the cruise while in your room with the kids asleep.

If you do go with an interior room, bring a small night light and a long extension cord. Put the in a drawer that's partly closed. The outlets in the bathrooms are only on when the lights are on. Kind of goofy if you ask me. I do know that RSSC has small Lumalite night lights, but you're paying $6-8K for a 10 night cruise. Each.

We had a verandah on our first cruise and didn't really use it much, so I looked into cruising without the verandah next time around and it was signifigantly (we're talking in the thousands range) less expensive, so we went with porthole rooms on the next two cruises. That was the difference between one category 4 room (family of five) and two connecting category 9s. We loved our porthole rooms, and I wouldn't hesitate to cruise with an inside stateroom if that's what was in the budget.
