Cabin 5241 · Carnival Encounter

Cabin 5241 is an Ocean View (category 6A1) on Carnival Encounter, 158 to 243 square feet.

Cabin 5241 is an Ocean View on Deck 5 of Carnival Encounter. You are far forward. You are near the bottom of the passenger decks, which is the steadiest place to be, though it is a fair climb to the open air. You are well out towards the end of the hull, which is where pitching is felt hardest. We score it 6 out of 10 for steadiness.

On the ship's plan Marquee Theatre is on the deck above, 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. We give it 9 out of 10 for quiet, which is about as peaceful as this ship gets. 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 29th cabin position of 58 along Deck 5. You are about as central as the corridor gets, so it is a similar walk whichever way you turn out of your door.

An Ocean View gives you 158-243 square feet. You get daylight and a sense of where you are without paying balcony money. The window does not open, so it is the view but not the air.

It suits light sleepers. It is a poor fit for anyone who finds long corridors and stairs hard work.
