Cabin 8328 · Carnival Encounter

Cabin 8328 is an Ocean View (Obstructed View) (category 5A1) on Carnival Encounter, 158 to 243 square feet.

Cabin 8328 is an Ocean View (Obstructed View) on Deck 8 of Carnival Encounter, forward of midship. You are far enough from the middle to notice a swell, but nowhere near the worst of it. We score it 8 out of 10 for steadiness.

Theatre Marquee sits on the deck below, roughly 1 cabin 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. Quiet comes out at 7 out of 10, roughly par for this ship. For getting about, 7 out of 10.

Of the 135 cabin positions on Deck 8, this is the 52nd from forward.

The Ocean View (Obstructed View) grade runs 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 1,295 cabins on board, steadier in a swell than 93 per cent of them and as well placed for getting around as any cabin aboard. It suits travellers prone to seasickness. It is a poor fit for anyone who wakes when a door closes.
