All Scenic Sapphire cabins have a maximum capacity of 2 guests per stateroom. With the exception of the lower (Jewel Deck 1) cabins (located at water level), all other staterooms (87%) are balcony cabins. They are advertised by Scenic Tours as “Suite” accommodations with “Sun Lounges”. Each of these features a private (step-out) balcony for all-weather use. The number of cabin categories is 14.
