Cabin 1249 · Carnival Luminosa

Cabin 1249 is an Ocean View on Carnival Luminosa, 177 square feet.

Cabin 1249 is an Ocean View on Deck 1 of Carnival Luminosa, forward of midship. You are near the bottom of the passenger decks, which is the steadiest place to be, though it is a fair climb to the open air. You will feel a bit more motion than a midship cabin. Nothing dramatic. We score it 8 out of 10 for steadiness.

The nearest is the lift bank, and that is 13 cabins away down the corridor. That buys you quiet. It also means a proper walk with your bags on embarkation day. We give it 10 out of 10 for quiet, which is about as peaceful as this ship gets. For getting about, 8 out of 10.

Of the 111 cabin positions on Deck 1, this is the 46th from forward. You are about as central as the corridor gets, so it is a similar walk whichever way you turn out of your door. You share Deck 1 with Luminosa Theater. There are 121 cabins along this deck, so the corridor is a fairly ordinary length.

The Ocean View grade runs 177 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, steadier in a swell than 89 per cent of them and better placed for getting around than 94 per cent of them. It suits light sleepers, travellers prone to seasickness and families running back to the cabin several times a day.

Scored by Cruise Ship Wiki using model v1.8, from the position of this cabin relative to every public space on the ship. Each part is out of 10.
