Cabin 5336 · Carnival Encounter

Cabin 5336 is an Ocean View (category 6B) on Carnival Encounter.

Cabin 5336 is an Ocean View on Deck 5 of Carnival Encounter, 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.

On the ship's plan a stairwell is on the deck above, about 1 cabin along from you. You will still walk to the stairs or the lift to reach it, so treat it as a landmark rather than a neighbour. Quiet comes out at 8 out of 10, roughly par for this ship. For getting about, 7 out of 10.

Counting from the bow, it is the 58th cabin position of 58 along Deck 5. That puts you right at the aft end of the run, where the corridor stops and the footfall dies away.

An Ocean View gives you 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 noisier than three quarters of the 1,295 cabins on board, steadier in a swell than 93 per cent of them and as well placed for getting around as any cabin aboard. It suits light sleepers and travellers prone to seasickness.
