Cabin 11382 · Mardi Gras

Cabin 11382 is an Extended Balcony (category 8J1) on Mardi Gras, 185 to 205 square feet plus a private balcony of 60 square feet.

Cabin 11382 is an Extended Balcony on Deck 11 of Mardi Gras, midship. That is about as close to the ship's pivot point as you can get, and in a swell you will feel it less here than anywhere else on board. We score it 9 out of 10 for steadiness, which puts it among the calmest rooms on the ship.

We give it 10 out of 10 for quiet, which is about as peaceful as this ship gets. For getting about it is 3 out of 10, so add a few minutes to everywhere you go.

Counting from the bow, it is the 116th cabin position of 200 along Deck 11. You are about as central as the corridor gets, so it is a similar walk whichever way you turn out of your door.

An Extended Balcony gives you 185-205 square feet. The balcony adds another 60 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 as steady in a swell as any cabin on the ship. It suits light sleepers and travellers prone to seasickness. It is a poor fit for anyone who finds long corridors and stairs hard work.
