Cabin 5259 · Carnival Celebration

Cabin 5259 is a Cloud 9 Spa Cove Balcony (category 7S) on Carnival Celebration.

Cabin 5259 is a Cloud 9 Spa Cove Balcony on Deck 5 of Carnival Celebration, and it sits far forward. 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. Out at this end you feel the sea. In rough water the movement here is noticeably stronger. Right up in the bow, a head sea can send a shudder through the hull that midship guests never feel at all. We score it 5 out of 10 for steadiness.

Spa Treatment Rooms is immediately nearby, about 1 cabin away. Handy, though worth knowing about if you sleep lightly. Quiet comes out at 8 out of 10, roughly par for this ship. For getting about, 5 out of 10.

Of the 81 cabin positions on Deck 5, this is the 14th from forward. You share Deck 5 with Spa Treatment Rooms, Thermal Suites, Cloud 9 Spa and Salon. There are 285 cabins along this deck, so the corridor is a long walk end to end.

It is booked as a Cloud 9 Spa Cove Balcony. A balcony buys you outside space of your own and, on sea days, somewhere to sit that is not the pool deck. It is the step up most people make, and the one they find hardest to give up again.

Against the rest of the ship it is noisier than three quarters of the 2,681 cabins on board. It suits light sleepers.
