Cabin 1111 · Carnival Radiance

Cabin 1111 is a Cloud 9 Spa Balcony (category 8S1) on Carnival Radiance, 185 to 205 square feet plus a private balcony of 35 to 44 square feet.

Cabin 1111 is a Cloud 9 Spa Balcony on Deck 11, the Spa deck, of Carnival Radiance, forward of midship. You are at the top of the passenger decks, so the pools and the open air are just up the stairs, and you feel the ship move more than anyone below you. You will feel a bit more motion than a midship cabin. Nothing dramatic. We score it 6 out of 10 for steadiness.

A stairwell sits on the deck above, roughly 1 cabin along the ship from you. You will still walk to the stairs or the lift to reach it, so treat it as a landmark rather than a neighbour. We give it 10 out of 10 for quiet, which is about as peaceful as this ship gets. For getting about, 6 out of 10.

Of the 13 cabin positions on Deck 11, this is the 9th from forward. You are about as central as the corridor gets, so it is a similar walk whichever way you turn out of your door.

The Cloud 9 Spa Balcony grade runs 185-205 square feet. The balcony adds another 35-44 on top of that. A balcony buys you outside space of your own and, on sea days, somewhere to sit that is not the pool deck. It is the step up most people make, and the one they find hardest to give up again.

Against the rest of the ship it is as quiet as anything on board and better placed for getting around than 82 per cent of them. It suits light sleepers.
