Cabin 17211 · Carnival Celebration

Cabin 17211 is a Cloud 9 Spa Interior (category 4T) on Carnival Celebration.

Cabin 17211 is a Cloud 9 Spa Interior on Deck 17 of Carnival Celebration, far forward. 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 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 3 out of 10 for steadiness. If you are at all prone to seasickness, look elsewhere.

You are 4 cabins from a stairwell. Close enough to be useful, far enough that it should not keep you awake. We give it 9 out of 10 for quiet, which is about as peaceful as this ship gets. For getting about, 7 out of 10.

Of the 54 cabin positions on Deck 17, this is the 3rd from forward. That puts you right at the forward end of the run, where the corridor stops and the footfall dies away. You share Deck 17 with RedFrog Tiki Bar, Guy's Burger Joint and Warehouse. There are 88 cabins along this deck, so the corridor is short and rarely busy.

It is booked as a Cloud 9 Spa Interior. No window, which makes it the darkest and cheapest room on board and, for a lot of people, the best sleep they get all week. If waking to daylight matters to you, an ocean view is the smallest step up.

Against the rest of the ship it is livelier in a swell than most of them and better placed for getting around than 91 per cent of them. It suits light sleepers. It is a poor fit for anyone who feels motion badly.
