La Belle des Oceans is a new 130-passenger ship for the French boutique cruise line CroisiEurope, although it's not a new ship - it formerly belonged to Silversea, a very upmarket cruise line. There are only a half dozen or so cabins which have a balcony on this ship and I was very lucky to to be staying in one. It was cabin #606 which is on deck 6 (the ship only has seven decks in total) and this video offers an in depth cabin tour and inside look at my cabin. It takes a good look at the bed/mattress, the linen, the decor, the pictures on the wall as well as the desk area, lounge area (the lounge/sofa space is massive) and the vanity desk. Plus the MASSIVE chocolates which are left on the pillow. The balcony is small - possibly the smallest balcony I've ever had! - but it's nice to have some private outside space. I also look at storage space and cupboards as well as the bathroom and toiletries etc. NB the plug sockets were VERY unusual - watch on to find out why!
