Cabin U61 · Carnival Elation

Cabin U61 is an Ocean View (category 6D1) on Carnival Elation, 158 to 243 square feet.

Cabin U61 is an Ocean View on Deck 6, the Upper deck, of Carnival Elation, and it sits forward of midship. You will feel a bit more motion than a midship cabin. Nothing dramatic. We score it 7 out of 10 for steadiness.

A stairwell sits two decks up, roughly 2 cabins along the ship 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. We give it 10 out of 10 for quiet, which is about as peaceful as this ship gets. For getting about, 8 out of 10.

Of the 154 cabin positions on Deck 6, this is the 38th from forward.

The Ocean View grade runs 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 as quiet as anything on board and as well placed for getting around as any cabin aboard. It suits light sleepers and families running back to the cabin several times a day.
