10 BEST CRUISE CABINS for Every Type of Cruiser

- When planning a cruise, choosing the best cruise cabin can be hard! When it comes to choosing a cruise cabin, cabin location is everything! However, there are some things that you should know.
In this video I share the 10 best cruise cabin location, for every type of cruiser. We look at the things you need to know: stability, views, accessibility and convenience. Some of the best cruise cabins have some special features or are located on certain decks on a cruise ship. As well, cabins that are on upper or lower decks, might be more desirable. Even cabins on the starboard or port side of the cruise ship may be better for certain cruise itineraries. I hope these cruise tips help plan, especially if you're a first time cruiser.

I don't know the best cabin on edge but please let me tell you I love the casino and the martini bars. Please give me some advice on which cabin I should get.
I like midship. Hopefully I'll get a balcony cabin one day.
I prefer midship! I have been in several storms in the winter time. It really does make a difference dealing with powerful waves.
Thanks for sharing your experience!!
As an adult, all the cruises I have taken ( not that many, just 3) I have chosen midship. I have vertigo and like the midship because it is better for the motion sickness.
After taking 36+ cruises price is the definite factor in our choosing a cabin we have been from interior to deluxe balcony rooms and we have tried all of them on lots of different decks price is the main thing for us location doesn’t really matter at this stage of our cruising history…
I’m an old guy in my 70’s. I began sailing in the early 1980’s when cruise ships did not have stabilizers. The new ships do a much better job of controlling the pitching in rough seas, however mid ship cabins do little to mitigate the rolling motion in rough seas.
Doing an eastbound transatlantic and specifically picked a room on the starboard side to see the amazing sunrises and sunsets (southeast and southwest) during the string of sea days. Also choose one close to the elevator bank, but not right next to it to both avoid long walks as well as noise from both elevators and people waiting to catch one. Finally, I always make sure that the room is not a connecting room as those doors between rooms provide less sound proofing than a solid wall.
I book the aft facing cabins. The view off the balcony is amazing!!
We love having a cabin near the art gallery on our Princess cruises. It's so nice to wander through and see the beautiful artwork on our way to and from our cabin.
That’s a beautiful area! 😍
I have always been selecting the MIDDLE CABINS, but now I'm more interested with the back of the ship because of Balcony Space. I'll do that next time.
Perhaps worth trying once to see what you think :)
I’m a midship cabin person, balcony, 8-9 decks and up are most desirable. Thank you for the wonderful video.
One problem with lower oceanview is the windows are often hard to see out of due to salt accumulation. We just did an upper-level forward oceanview and loved it. The view was great and the room was larger than even the balcony rooms. We did have to walk a bit more and had to keep curtains closed at night if our lights on.
I stayed in an Ocean View Forward on the RCC Oasis of the seas. It had a nice larger space near the window where our luggage could be laid out. I loved it. I also don't recall it being too rocky or anything. This was in 2016. I think my aunt was a little jealous because you are correct, she had a balcony room and our Ocean view was larger.
That’s great! Interesting about the curtains at night
@@LifeWellCruised They do not want lights that might impact the night vision of the folks on the bridge. But we turned off all the lights had watched the moon through our large window.
The Aft facing balconies are for those who don’t want to see where they are going but want to see where they have been 😎
I love the aft cabins. The overall view that you get is amazing.
We booked two adjoining aft balconies wrap around rooms on a cruise we are doing with my daughter’s family, we can’t wait.
Good advice. Thanks for sharing.😎
RE: Hump cabins - We were fortunate enough to upgrade to a Neptune Suite on HAL's Zuiderdam for our Alaska cruise last year. We chose Cabin #7088, forward facing hump location, near rear elevators. We had an amazing view on our huge wraparound balcony! We did feel the wind more there, but the views far outweighed the wind and lack of privacy. Huge cabin also. Highly recommend!
Another great informative video, I do 3 of the 10 you mentioned, will keep them all in mind for the next booking when picking a cabin
Hi! We have been on a dozen or so cruises, we like port side mid ship, deck 9 or higher. But I always learn something new from your videos! Thanks!!
Love your channel. Like that you keep it very quick and concise ! You get to the point quickly. Awesome !
Thanks so much Michael! I appreciate you watching
We had an aft cabin with a veranda on an Alaskan cruise and it was great 👍 we had amazing views!
I like midship and love the cove balconies on deck 2, on Carnival. Would like to try the hump balconies later. Thanks for the suggestion!
Love midship. Stayed in a hump balacny on the Regal Princess. Was bigger. Very nice
Thanks for the video, great points cover. We prefer the forward the ship for our room.Have a great weekend
Interesting!! That view is 👌
We had an interior cabin on our last cruise. It was a first for us and to our surprise it was not bad. We didn't spend a lot of time in the cabin because it was so much to do. We loved hanging out on deck enjoying the Southern Caribbean sea and we also had the thermal spa package which we spent a lot of time there.
Great to know! It’s always good to try out and see if you like it :)
Another excellent video! I love the hump balconies because they are usually by the stairs. One way I keep fit on the ship is taking the stairs whenever I need to go up or down and avoiding the elevators. Also, I always check the itinerary before booking a cabin so I can decide if I want to be on the ocean side, or perhaps see land from my balcony.
Great ideas!
I use nearly all of those tips when choosing a cabin! I also look for a cabin on the other side of the ship from the smoking deck areas to avoid smoke drifting into the balcony and near the elevators furthest from the casino because people come from the casino dragging second-hand smoke up and down the elevators.
Great point to actually check for smoking areas of you don’t want to be close
I prefer a mid ship for seasick issues only. The cruise I'm going on next offered me an "upgrade" of an aft balcony. I already chose a mid ship balcony and felt like they were kicking me to the back of the bus! Who wants to see where they've been? I want to see the coastline!
Lol good point
Just as an aside the term POSH comes from Brits in the transatlantic days were the Port Outboumd Starboard Homebound since they are on the sun side cost more..
How interesting!! I had no idea! I’ll have to share this one 👌
Love the "hump" cabins with balconies. The balconies are usually significantly bigger. I also like to be on a mid deck- not too high or too low. I find if we get one of these, we wil walk up and down the stairs more often- getting some much needed exercise on the ship.
My first cruise was mid ship balcony and down a little from elevators. My last one was a mid ship, hump balcony room right by the elevators. Between the 2 my 2nd cabin was better due to the larger balcony however, the noise from the elevator was noisy at times. I prefer mid ship due to seasickness.
We often save money by specifically not picking mid-ship cabins. We actually appreciate the longer walk and have never found the less stability to be a real issue. The rule I follow most closely is making sure there are cabins on all sides of us although we are breaking that rule for our next cruise in June. We booked a room on the Lido deck below the spa because of how great of access it had to the pool area. I don't think the spa will be too noisy for us and am really excited about the location.
Sounds awesome!
I am addicted to your channel! You did an amazing job shaping our future cruise vacation with the kids. Greetings from the Pride of the Red Sea Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
Thanks so much for watching and for your kind words. I’m so glad I was a help in some way
I like to be Aft, because there is something special about watching as you leave a port.
We love a lump balcony room and always try to book one when available. We also try to get a mid ship room. We also like Deck 6 or7
Interesting!! Great to hear about it
Learn a lot about room choice, thanks - some lessons be learned for my “next” cruise, haha! But, it’s too late for me for this cruise coming up this May. However, all in all, I am ok with my choice, which is on deck 10 towards the “Bridge”, close to the forward elevator, but away the central elevator located in the “bulging” part of the ship (middle part of the ship). I may get sea sick! However, Deck 11 above me is where the fitness center and spa are located. To go to the Windjammer Cafe, I will have to go to the other end of Deck 11 and walk towards the tail end of the ship. Lucky for me, I love walking…keeps me young, haha!
Enjoyed the aft facing on an eastbound TA.....also Stbd side doing a TA to Spain....lower deck midship balcony is great for those with motion sickness problems or if in a storm...much better motion
Thanks for the insight about a TA to Spain. Interesting about the lower balcony too
Howdy Ilana, Favorite part of the ship is the aft section. Aft facing balcony staterooms are the best. My wife had mobility issues and liked being near the elevator. We prefer the odd side. In the aft section you could see where you are coming from. Deck six on Carnival ships puts you right above the casino. Subscribed and hit the like button.
I’m normally a hump balcony cabin person, middle deck. Still midship but no view obstructions, good sized balconies to enjoy on sea days. And most importantly, nice and stable during rougher seas.
But for our upcoming Mediterranean cruise, I actually went with an aft-facing balcony. I figured the Mediterranean Sea wouldn’t be particularly rough in the summer months, and the views will be amazing all around.
Great idea!
On the cruise we just took they upgraded us to a balcony and it was deck 2 midship and near the elevators. Coming from the higher decks you could really tell the difference our stateroom was like a rock
Great to hear!
If I'm stopping at port that you don't have to tender to I generally prefer portside because I always like to wake up and walk out into the balcony and do a little video where I narrate what day of the cruise it is and what port that is and what excursion we will be doing that day it always makes for a fun way of looking back on the cruise and knowing exactly where you were that day and have a beautiful elevated view on the video of that particular port from the ship from in the morning. I'm about to book my 1st cruise on the Carnival Mardi Gras and it's been almost 3 years since I've cruised so I've been binge watching your videos lol
Love this idea for videos! I’m excited for you for MG - I was watching some videos and it’s on my wish list
@@LifeWellCruised That ship is #1 on my wishlist and even though I have a verbal job offer I should be getting an official offer letter hopefully today. If I do I'll be celebrating by officially booking the cruise this week. I'm really enjoying your videos so I'll keep you posted via comments when I do book it as well as my thoughts on the ship once I return 🙂
We have sailed in rooms located at the back of the ship on both Radiance Class and Sovereign class ships on the 7th or 8th deck and found them quite comfortable. We were on Brilliance of the seas during pretty rough weather on the Baltic, in which we were not allowed outside the ship and we found it still quite cozy. We did rock a little but I even felt it on the Lido deck when we were shopping. I am a little concerned on the rooms we have selected on deck 14 of Harmony of the Seas located right below the pools, ouch.
Prefer midship balcony! No doubt. ❤❤❤❤❤
Our last cruise we were in a hump cabin and loved the extreme space.
Great to hear!! What ship was it?
@@LifeWellCruised it was on Anthem of the Seas in early March
Had a balcony, mid ship, about 5 steps away from the elevator and it was the greatest! Yes you can hear what's going on in the Atrium, but you could hear what's going on in the Atrium. I made it to a few events in there I forgot about a few times, and I sleep with earplugs, so no issues there. Also, it's not like there's major parties going on in the Atrium during the night time. Overall fantastic experience for us!!!
Love mid- ship Oceanview, 2nd floor near elevators.
I like the midship rooms
👌
we we're in a very front cabin for our Christmas cruise last year, no, will not book a foward one again, unless it is really really cheap. I generally get mid ship, mid deck
We prefer verandahs midship and mid-high (decks 8,9,10) for stability and the view (with binoculars). As to smoking: check the smoking areas and avoid verandahs under or near (downwind) because smoke and ash can find their way into your clean space.
I prefer a midship lower deck, ocean view or balcony, cove balcony. it is an easier walk up or down to whereever I am going.
Always mid-ship on floors 2 or 3 is my preference
I personally like to be up high and as far forward as possible. I have however learned on the Carnival Horizon to not book floor 14. On most of their ships the spa area fornthebsauna and spa pool are above the highest deck of rooms. The Hotizon only has the serenity deck above you which equates to feeling like a heard of cattle is above you. I prefer the end of a hallway at a bulked so there is less passing by foot traffic as well. Also up front makes me walk to the dining establishments to get steps in.
How much rocking of the ship do you feel in cabins that are highest deck and forward? We got put in a cabin that is that description. We have only cruised once and I think it was more mid ship.
We just upgraded from a Deluxe ocean view on deck 4 to Verandah on deck 6 aboard Oceania Sirena leaving Rome 4/19 because more cabins were made available. Super excited 😊
We always try to book an Aft facing. Just sitting on the balcony with my favourite novel at night or smoked salmon and coffee room service breakfast in the AM. Can’t wait for our next sail! We upgrade to a Hump on Anthem of the Seas and didn’t think it was worth it. You get a bigger balcony but less view because your so far out.
Interesting observations. I would have thought it would be the opposite. Good to know 👌
I like the mid ship but my next cruise I got a suite closer to the front of the ship, I hope I like it.
I recently got off a cruise 2 decks under the pool/lido deck, passenger cabin above and cabin had balcony. The bass from the late-night music on the lido was very prominent. Cabin was not bad, and music only lasted until midnight. So, that is something else to think about.
Definitely something to consider
We had an aft facing balcony and it was quiet and the views were great but it was very hot as there was no airflow. We couldn't sit out in the late afternoon. Haven't booked one since.
I hadn’t thought of that, but makes sense. Thanks for sharing
The cabins we have liked the best were what you call a “hump” cabin on the Celebrity Solstice class ships…because they were mid-ship, near the elevators with a large balcony giving great views along the side of the ship.
Perfect 👌
I agree you must be sandwiched by cabins but never a conjoined cabin unless your family is in the next room…we prefer depending on the ship an even distance between the lido and promenade
You’re so right!!
Going on a cruise next year for the first time in my adult life lol. We booked a spa room on Carnival
Nice!!
Yes Illana, i almost always have a mid ship cabin, unless it is a last minute deal or when i went aqua class on celebrity to South America which was more forward. I have been thinking of an aft balcony, I need to hear from more people who have had an aft balcony.
You can’t go wrong with mid-ship! I probably would get feedback for aft facing balcony cabins on specific ships. Seems some have more vibration than others. But so many people just love that view and balcony size
@@LifeWellCruised oh thx for the heads up about different ships
We've had aft once, which was nice, but a long walk. We typically go for mid ship, since we sail Oadis class mostly.
I can relate! I had aft on oasis too and it was a LONG walk 😂
@@LifeWellCruised what is the best cruise cabin on the edge? How can I get it without all the expensies?
My preference is forward or aft. I do not like mid. Boring. We love to feel the ocean.
Oooh love that way of thinking
Hi Ilana, the best cruise cabin would be #11 ... the cabin across the hall from you and Frank on a Celebrity cruise. That would certainly be Life Well Cruised. Hi from Bob and Jill (Aqua Class Deck 11 in June) in Connecticut
Haha!! Love it 😂
The last time we had an upper cabin on the port side, it was under the smoking deck and we couldn't enjoy the veranda because of the smokers above us.
Oh no!
Midship is the best for me.
Midship, a couple decks above the casino.
I prefer always 6- 8 cabins away from the elevators 10 max. We always forget something or when elevators are crowded after shows or dinner we can take the stairs. Also traveling with strollers you don’t want to push it so far down any narrow hall space. I used to book higher to be near the lido deck. I’ve learned it’s better to be deck 6 &7 on RCL and deck 8 & 9 on NCL closer to entertainment & dinner.
I prefer a mid-ship balcony on decks 8 to 10, depending what's above. I tried an inside cabin once and didn't like it. I think those would be good for people who like to sleep in.
Great location and you’re right, insides aren’t for everyone:)
First cruise coming up in early November. We blew it and booked our cruise way too late. Got a desirable balcony deck, but *forward* in the low 200s. Concerned about motion sickness; will be proactive by using anti-nausea OTC meds.
California Linda shares 👋 and 🎉🎉🎉 for booking a cruise. Be sure to watch and rewatch each of Illana's vlogs. Each one has nuggets and we have booked balconies on all levels and ship positions. First step after embarkation is to take 3 to 4 green apples from the buffet area to your room. Green apples, ginger gum and ginger candies are holistic approaches which are better alternatives to medication. Enjoy the fresh air on your balcony and some find the pressure wrist bands very helpful. Enjoy the cruise and make a list in a journal; what I wished I had or knew and what I packed that was never used or worn.
You may be just fine if the ship has less movement so don’t stress. Good idea to simply be prepared with some seasickness remedies
Hi,
We are currently sailing on the Ruby Princess having so much fun!!!
We enjoyed shopping for everything and getting packed and based on your recommendation we purchased hooks from your Amazon store. unfortunately they don't even hold up a pair of earrings and are totally useless. Just thought I'd share this information.
California Linda shares to not be discouraged from using magnets as they come in different strengths. Purchase new ones from a hardware store and note the weight limit per magnet. Magnets repel and if you try to put the bases together you should feel the magnetic field pressure that inhibit your efforts 🧲🧲 , these are the ones to buy. Reassign your other ones for holding paper announcements or the itinerary on the cabin walls. Boarding the Ruby in 14 days. 😊
So glad you’re having fun!! I’ll have to look at the magnet hooks. The “heavy duty” ones work really well for me
I try to get a cabin midship mostly because of the weather gets rough that's the smoothest place on the boat but I try to stay mid aisle between the elevators and away from all the noise
Great location. Thanks for sharing
Yes like mid-ship
Hello, I love all of your videos because they have been of great help!. My little family and I are going on a cruise for the first time and your videos have been able to help me get organized and have given me peace of mind. I would like to ask if I need to bring a life jacket for my son that’s 4 years old, or if the ship provide them? Also, can I request milk to my cabin?
Great questions. I’ve seen life jackets at the kiddie pool, but truthfully I don’t know how this works for young children. For milk, you might be able to get it from room service. But otherwise bring it back from the breakfast buffet and put it in your small cabin fridge
@@LifeWellCruised thank you!
Midship around 7 or 8 deck
Port side midship for me deck 6 or 7
Midship, not too far from the elevator and just one floor down from Lido/Buffet.
Alaska....we prefer AFT and closer to water level for photography
Great idea
My very first cruise is scheduled for next year. I didn't get to choose a cabin. I'm thinking it's because there is a group of us going and a block was held for us. Going to the Caribbean on NCL in Feb (live in Minnesota).
My cabin will be a side balcony almost at the very front of the ship. I think it may be the very first one on the side, next to the foreward facing cabins.
Awesome! Overall no bad cabins
never in the cabin just sleep and shower and change clothes !! and we always get interior !! we go on 3 or 4 cruises a year !! we have had window rooms and balcony and even a suite once we just didn't see where it was worth the extra money !! we like to drink and party till real late we just need a place to crash
I have sailed in a hump cabin,and did have a better view,but it was the first cabin in the hump,towards the front of the ship,so we did get a pretty good breeze,so next time I would prefer the last cabin so my hair doesn't get windblown...
Interesting! Good tip to go for the last cabin 👏
Hi llana, We have always chosen mid-ship on Carnival, and on Explorer of the Seas, we had the hump, dead set in the middle. We loved it!! Last night I booked Celebrity Reflection for Barcelona to Rome next year. They had a special with a C-3 balcony, a little more forward but last cabin (closest to midship) on the hump on deck 10. I hope I don't regret it but Paul did fine previously. Have you cruised on the Reflection? 💕💕
Sounds great! I haven’t been on Reflection, but my friends just loved it and I would sail on it in a heartbeat
Hi Barb! Our last cruise-pre pandemic - was on Celebrity Reflection on deck 10, hump balcony, back of the hump. We loved it as the balcony is bigger, although angled. We would definitely chose it again. I have found these particular balconies go quickly. We loved the Reflection, beautiful ship, and the crew were fantastic. Happy cruising!
@@christineainslie4239 We'll be in 1073.
@@coffofcuppee Wonderful Barb! We were in 1134. Enjoy !
Midship balcony is the only way we cruise!
We are booked on Princess Ruby this Nov as a family of 5. unfortunately we have zero options for ship location for the family accommodations 😥😥
What type of cabin is being showed at the beginning and what cruise line and ship is it. The one with double doors to the balcony
Always mid ship. Sometimes Ocean View, Sometimes Balcony. Last cruise we were next to a Hump Balcony and the kids in that room kept looking over the divider into our space. Very frustrating.
Oh no! Note to self - avoid cabins next to the hump 😬
Mid ship works best for my walking impaired husband. Close to elevator’s!
Taking a transpacific cruise from Seattle to Sydney in September. Flying out of Tampa.Can ANYONE give tips ?
I like to be dead center of the ship. If I have to walk far, that exercise for me and hubby
Perfect 👍
I prefer midship. It makes a difference in rough seas.
Absolutely 👌
I prefer mid ship but not next to an elevator which can be noisy.
Good point
Midship , higher decks r what I always book …
First cruise and we are in the 1st floor. Is that bad? In July Carnival Vista
Please, someone tell me about the very front suite on the carnival vista? Motion? 9th level
Many of those u mention have views of other balconies or walk around in front of them.
I’m not sure which. I have sailed in a boardwalk balcony, and that had a view of another balcony, but obviously this is what people want in this case “boardwalk- street view”
I’m curious to try an aft balcony but am concerned about getting seasick.
Hi Too Many ... we were Aft Starboard Family Oceanview Verandah Deck 8 for our November 2021 Celebrity Millennium 10 nighter. No motion or sway at all. No feeling of the Azipod propulsion units either. Yet all people are different. Hi from Bob and Jill in Connecticut
Thanks Bob and Jill! Sounds 👍 great.
Hump balcony size and view great but it feels likeeveryone is looking at you. Glad I tried
Yes I can imagine. I don’t think I’d like that aspect
Uh oh. We didnt know cabin location mattered and we have one very front of the ship. I'm worried becsuse i get motion sickness easily. Oh no
We have had the rear facing cabin and was not happy with it, more noise from the engines and the roar from the ships wake was not good.
I don’t think I’d like that either. What ship was this?
@@LifeWellCruised it was the Celebrity Summit.
@@rh4267 oh yes, and the cabins are staggered as well. I know some people don’t like the lack of privacy. Good for people to be aware of if it might bother them. Thanks for sharing
I need help I am a first time cruiser. My cruise is April 30th, the part where Carnival ask you to link your credit card or debit card information. I really don't want to use my debit or credit. I have purchased a Carnival Gift Card can I use that ???
Perhaps you can call Carnival for this. They’ll be helpful. Have an amazing cruise.
Help me please!! I found a very cheap cruise (21€ for adult and only 9€ for child INCLUDING MEALS) so is there any catch?
I really couldn’t tell you unfortunately
? Is there a way I could talked to you
