Watch my video tour and review of a typical balcony cabin on Norwegian Cruise Line’s Norwegian Epic. This is cabin10229.

The balcony cabins on Norwegian Epic are compact and cleverly designed. They have curved walls which means that they take up less space on the ship and yet are still able to provide a bed area and seating area with sofa (which is also a sofa bed). To use space more efficiently instead of having a separate bathroom the facilities are within the room. There is a small (probably a bit too small) basin and then on one side of the cabin door is a shower cubicle (which is a good size) with frosted glass. On the other side is a toilet cubicle also with frosted glass. Although the glass is frosted you can still see some shape of the person using them, so there is a curtain that can be drawn across the room to screen the area off if you want added privacy.

The bed is comfortable although it also has a curve at the end to allow movement around the bed and so as I am 6’2” my feet slightly were off the end if I lay flat on my back. However, there was no issue when sleeping.

There is surprisingly lot of storage of all types in the room, including lots of space under the bed to stow away suitcases. There is a small desk / dressing table area and a selection of USA and Euro plugs under the table. I liked the tea and coffee maker, and the steward was always fast to replenish the supplies as they were used.

The balcony was large and there was plenty of room for 2 chairs and a small table.

The TV is interactive and in addition to checking your bill, which is helpful to keep an eye on your budget, you can also use it to make bookings.

On first entering the room I worried that it may feel a bit cramped with the curved walls and compactness. However, it did not turn out that way and I ended up finding it comfortable, practical and very cosy at night.

The balcony cabins are compact and the balcony makes them bright and perfect for cruising in warmer climates. I liked them.

Small Bathroom

Sept. 9, 2011 - PRLog -- Small bathrooms can be transformed into warm and inviting spaces where you can truly unwind and relax. Planning and creating a new bathroom suite can be a challenging experience especially if you have a small bathroom, but by paying attention to detail and carefully planning how you want the room to look and feel you can easily achieve your dream bathroom.

Small bathrooms can be turned into your very own bathing sanctuary, providing you plan carefully. Before choosing any new products for your bathroom make sure that you accurately measure the space and double check your measurements as every little bit counts! Small bathrooms usually only have enough space to install either a bath or a shower enclosure so decide which is more important to you, do you prefer to shower or bathe? Quadrant shower enclosures are an ideal choice for small bathrooms as they are designed to maximise the floor space and take up less room than standard square designs. Walk in showers are great for small bathrooms too and will provide you with a spacious showering area and will add a touch of designer style to the bathroom as well as creating a sense of space.

Having a small bathroom doesn't mean that you can't include a stylish bath in your design. There are a wide variety of compact baths suitable for small bathrooms measuring just 1500mm or 1600mm in length, they come in a range of styles including compact freestanding baths, straight acrylic or steel baths http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/baths/steel-baths and compact shower baths so you can combine both bathing and showering in the same space.

Wall-mounted toilets http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/pottery/toilets/wall-hun... and basins are the perfect solution for creating the illusion of more space in small bathrooms and will make cleaning the floor a whole lot easier too! There are more products around than ever before that are specifically designed for small bathrooms; these include toilets with short projections, corner basins and compact bathroom furniture designs.

Having somewhere to store your toiletries out of sight is a definite advantage for small bathrooms and will help you keep the room clutter free. If a small bathroom is full of clutter it will only make the room feel even smaller so make sure that you install some bathroom furniture such as a wall-mounted cabinet to help keep your small bathroom looking neat and streamlined.

The final details will make all the difference to your small bathroom. Consider installing a stylish heated towel rail http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/furniture-and-accessorie... to provide you with the luxury of warm towels. A large bathroom mirror will reflect the lights and increase the feeling of space, you may think about opting for a mirror with lights to provide you with useful illumination and to create a striking feature too.
