Cabin 8701 · Carnival Encounter

Cabin 8701 is an Ocean View (Obstructed View) (category 5A1) on Carnival Encounter, 158 to 243 square feet.

Cabin 8701 is an Ocean View (Obstructed View) on Deck 8 of Carnival Encounter, and it sits well aft. 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.

Noosa sits on the deck below, roughly 6 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 10 out of 10 for quiet, which is about as peaceful as this ship gets. For getting about, 5 out of 10.

Of the 135 cabin positions on Deck 8, this is the 111th 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 as quiet as anything on board and better placed for getting around than 85 per cent of them. It suits light sleepers.
