Staying in The Smallest Cabins on Cruise Ships

  • These are the smallest inside cabins found on cruise ships. From the cheapest to the most expensive I am going to stay in them all.
    Starting with an inside cabin from one of the biggest cruise lines in the world, Carnival cruise line.
    I’d read a lot of bad reviews about the inside cabins on the Carnival Magic but when I saw a cruise for just $76 per night I knew that I had to give it a go. To keep it as cheap as possible I didn’t pick the location of my room and that meant I could be given a cabin anywhere on the ship, probably one of the cabins that nobody else picked in a ‘bad’ location. I was given cabin 7432 right at the back of deck 7 above a nightclub and piano bar. I hoped that that wouldn’t cause me any problems as the cruise went on as cruise ship cabins aren’t exactly known for being soundproof, you can hear everything.

    Walking into the room I was instantly struck by how funky it looked, I think funky is the right word, there was a lot of orange wood around, the floor was bright and even the bed had a skirt. The desk reminded me of spaghetti hoops and I have no idea what the art was on the walls but it was on both sides, the same painting twice. They clearly thought this was a good painting so they ordered thousands and thousands and thousands of copies of it.

    I have experienced the Vortex sound occasionally on some NCL cruises. The maintenance staff was baffled by the source after attempting to affect the noise. It was challenging to sleep when the air system was active. I was able to determine the source of the problem. The adjustable air vent inside the shower was turned too tightly so the opening was almost fully closed. This resulted in air rushing through a small opening and making sounds like an airplane taking off. I was able to turn the cover a bit and the noise was eliminated. Keep this in mind for your next adventure on the seas!

    We have only ever cruised with RC, and since the year 2000. We do 2 per year and the worst room we’ve ever had was a porthole room our first cruise on the Monarch. Since then our accommodations and excursions have been wonderful, only hampered occasionally by weather. Never had the desire to try Carnival, but Princess is on our bucket list.

    Love watching these. We usually sail interior cabins and my favorite so far is an Edge class Celebrity ship Deluxe Interior. Large cabin and bathroom. Usually we will split the bed into twins if the orientation is bed at the end of the room - having that aisle between beds made it much easier to maneuver. Next cruise is 14 days in Alaska in an interior on the Celebrity Summit - another adventure awaits.

      My wife and I were blessed to book 2 Carnival Cruises (one 7 night & one 10 night ) with inside cabins comped (haven't cruised in 15 years) and since they are older ships, the size of the interior cabins are bigger then the regular staterooms of the newer ships. With taxes, port fees, insurance, pre paid tips, came to right around $2K for everything.

  • @stephenhope7319
    @stephenhope7319 10 месяцев назад +2

    Most useful comment was about the electrical plugs. Regardless of cruise line or location or cabin type it is defo necessary to bring a variety of plugs. We have found German type plugs hidden behind beds for example. I carry specific plug adapters for specific regions, ie OZ/NZ adapters for our cruise last month LA to Sydney and NZ. These are cheap and simple to carry but it can be infuriating if you forget them.

    My husband and I did inside staterooms on 3 of our 10 cruises. I used a scooter for those, and we ended up in VERY nice rooms. The first was on MSC Divina and we got a double width room with ample room for me to park my scooter. I later ended up in an inside stateroom on Carnival with my son and husband and my scooter blocked the entrance to the room and once we had the beds set up, it was like a teen and three adults sleeping in a slightly larger king bed.
    Most of the inside staterooms you were in would be perfectly fine for me and my husband, but we've decided we like having somewhere in the room to sit, so future cruises will always be in balcony staterooms.

    5:16 After 26 years in the submarine service. My idea of small may differ from others.
    Also, as others have said, get a small white noise machine.
    Further fun fact; the submarine's ventilation system muffles noise in a similar manner. So much so that if the ventilation stops, we wake up, because something is about to happen.

    That IS definitely a Bird of Paradise Flower (Strelitzia reginae). It is actually a beautiful flower, and seen in many ports. I think it is the official flower of Los Angeles, CA US. It symbolizes joyfulness, paradise, freedom, anticipation, and excitement. Basically it symbolizes a cruise. Of course they grow poorly in the UK, as they need lots of sunlight. :)

    Those paintings are of a plant called Birds of Paradise. I first saw this plant in Los Angeles, California and thought it only grew there. Years later I bought my home in Florida and found a garden filled with this beautiful plant and have them to this day. They grow about three feet tall in large clusters and put out the amazing flowers all year long if given regular sun and water.
