Cabin 8242A · Scarlet Lady

Cabin 8242A is a Ltd View Sea Terrace on Deck 8 of Scarlet Lady, and it sits forward of midship. You are far enough from the middle to notice a swell, but nowhere near the worst of it. We score it 8 out of 10 for steadiness.

On the ship's plan Draught Haus is on the deck below, about 1 cabin along from you. A deck between you takes most of the noise out of it, and it is a short trip when you want it. Quiet comes out at 8 out of 10, roughly par for this ship. For getting about, 5 out of 10.

Counting from the bow, it is the 48th cabin position of 128 along Deck 8.

A Ltd View Sea Terrace gives you 225.3 square feet. 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 steadier in a swell than 87 per cent of them and better placed for getting around than 96 per cent of them. It suits light sleepers and travellers prone to seasickness.
