Cabin 5204 · Carnival Firenze

Cabin 5204 is a Terrazza Cabana (category TE1) on Carnival Firenze, 185 square feet plus a private balcony of 100 square feet.

Cabin 5204 is a Terrazza Cabana on Deck 5 of Carnival Firenze. You are aft of midship. You are far enough from the middle to notice a swell, but nowhere near the worst of it. We score it 6 out of 10 for steadiness.

On the ship's plan Firenze Casino is on the deck below, about 7 cabins along from you. A deck between you takes most of the noise out of it, and it is a short trip when you want it. Quiet comes out at 8 out of 10, roughly par for this ship. For getting about it is 4 out of 10, so add a few minutes to everywhere you go.

Counting from the bow, it is the 3rd cabin position of 34 along Deck 5. That puts you right at the forward end of the run, where the corridor stops and the footfall dies away.

A Terrazza Cabana gives you 185 square feet. The balcony adds another 100 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 noisier than three quarters of the 2,003 cabins on board and better placed for getting around than 93 per cent of them. It suits light sleepers. It is a poor fit for anyone who finds long corridors and stairs hard work.
