Cove balcony carnival dream

My wife and I are looking to book our 23rd cruise and thinking about the Dream.My question is has anyone sailed on the Dream in a cove balcony stateroom. My wife is concerned that she won't be able to be seated and look out into the ocean without having to stand up.We always book a balcony so its just a matter of price with the cove balcony which is about $120 less than a regular balcony. Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

I just booked a cove for July. I looked at the numerous photos on a blog by zydecocruiser. (Not sure of spelling) It appears that the balcony is fairly standard, yet has a little more privacy. Check out his thousands of photos. One word of caution. I did note that many of the coves are below the galley. That might be a bit noisey. I made sure to get one directly below the shore excurions desk.
Have fun.

Hi Mikee, I answered on the other thread, but will answer here, too!

Here's a link to a review and some pictures of the cove balcony:

Yep, it's zydecocruiser.

Sitting down, standing up, no problem seeing out. We had one booked on Carnival Dream and have one booked for a back 2 back cruise on Carnival Magic!
