Cabin 11253 · Carnival Celebration

Cabin 11253 is a Balcony (category 8C) on Carnival Celebration.

Cabin 11253 is a Balcony on Deck 11 of Carnival Celebration. You are far forward. You are well out towards the end of the hull, which is where pitching is felt hardest. Right up in the bow, a head sea can send a shudder through the hull that midship guests never feel at all. We score it 4 out of 10 for steadiness.

A stairwell sits two decks down, 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 198 cabin positions on Deck 11, this is the 12th from forward.

It is booked as a Balcony. 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, livelier in a swell than most of them and better placed for getting around than 79 per cent of them. It suits light sleepers. It is a poor fit for anyone who feels motion badly.
