Cabin 8217 · Carnival Pride

Cabin 8217 is a Balcony (category 8F1) on Carnival Pride, 168 to 205 square feet plus a private balcony of 35 to 46 square feet.

Cabin 8217 is a Balcony on Deck 8, the Panorama deck, of Carnival Pride, aft of midship. 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. There is some movement here, more than midship and a good deal less than the ends. Most people never think about it. We score it 7 out of 10 for steadiness.

Pool sits on the deck above, roughly 9 cabins along the ship 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 3 out of 10, so add a few minutes to everywhere you go.

Of the 91 cabin positions on Deck 8, this is the 58th from forward.

The Balcony grade runs 168-205 square feet. The balcony adds another 35-46 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.

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