Cabin 5340 · Carnival Sunrise

Cabin 5340 is an Ocean View (category 6D1) on Carnival Sunrise, 158 to 243 square feet.

Cabin 5340 is an Ocean View on Deck 5, the Promenade deck, of Carnival Sunrise. You are well aft. Out at this end you feel the sea. In rough water the movement here is noticeably stronger. This far aft you may also pick up a hum from the propellers, usually at night when the ship is making speed between ports. Some people never notice it, others find it soothing, a few cannot ignore it. We score it 3 out of 10 for steadiness. If you are at all prone to seasickness, look elsewhere.

On the ship's plan JavaBlue Cafe is on the deck below, about 1 cabin 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 30th cabin position of 32 along Deck 5. That puts you right at the aft end of the run, where the corridor stops and the footfall dies away.

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.

Against the rest of the ship it is noisier than three quarters of the 1,492 cabins on board, livelier in a swell than most of them and better placed for getting around than 88 per cent of them. It suits light sleepers. It is a poor fit for anyone who feels motion badly and anyone who finds long corridors and stairs hard work.
