Cabin P230 · Carnival Elation

Cabin P230 is an Interior (category 4E1) on Carnival Elation, 149 to 185 square feet.

Cabin P230 is an Interior on Deck 9, the Promenade deck, of Carnival Elation. You are well aft. Out at this end you feel the sea. In rough water the movement here is noticeably stronger. This far aft you may also pick up a hum from the propellers, usually at night when the ship is making speed between ports. Some people never notice it, others find it soothing, a few cannot ignore it. We score it 5 out of 10 for steadiness.

Piano Bar sits on the deck below, roughly 12 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 9 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 26 cabin positions on Deck 9, this is the 13th 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.

The Interior grade runs 149-185 square feet. No window, which makes it the darkest and cheapest room on board and, for a lot of people, the best sleep they get all week. If waking to daylight matters to you, an ocean view is the smallest step up.

Against the rest of the ship it is noisier than three quarters of the 1,120 cabins on board. It suits light sleepers. It is a poor fit for anyone who finds long corridors and stairs hard work.
