Cabin 6239 · Carnival Sunshine

Cabin 6239 is a Balcony (category 8B) on Carnival Sunshine.

Cabin 6239 is a Balcony on Deck 6 of Carnival Sunshine, midship. That is about as close to the ship's pivot point as you can get, and in a swell you will feel it less here than anywhere else on board. We score it 8 out of 10 for steadiness.

Photo Gallery sits two decks down, roughly 8 cabins along the ship from you. A deck between you takes most of the noise out of it, and it is a short trip when you want it. We give it 10 out of 10 for quiet, which is about as peaceful as this ship gets. For getting about it is 3 out of 10, so add a few minutes to everywhere you go.

Of the 103 cabin positions on Deck 6, this is the 50th 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.

It is booked as a 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 as quiet as anything on board, steadier in a swell than 83 per cent of them and better placed for getting around than 87 per cent of them. It suits light sleepers and travellers prone to seasickness. It is a poor fit for anyone who finds long corridors and stairs hard work.
