Review summary

This was my very first cruise! My family and I had the interior stateroom (never again...I felt too closed in😩🤦🏾‍♀️). Our stateroom Stewart was great! Food was good. Plenty of things to do. I had a blast! I enjoyed all three stops: Half Moon Cay, Grand Turk, and Amber Cove. Can’t wait for Carnival Panorama in 2020 🤗

We always book a balcony, we spend more time in our cabin than most.

My daughter only like the deluxe oceanview. 2 bathrooms and more space.

Next time try a balcony or aft extended ocean view cabin! Both are more roomy and you can see out and enjoy it more!

But not a cove balcony... When we went on Magic, we did a cove. Close to the water, but sky is covered by lifeboats... and we were under one of the kitchens. Hear everything rolling around with the rock of the sea. So next time on the Breeze, and this Nov on the Vista, we doing balcony, but way up in top. Few bucks more, but worth it.

As you can see, many people like the interior cabin. We are not fans, but like you our first cruise we had one. It is good to know what doesn’t fit and go from there. Hope on your next cruise you try the Ocean View. We now prefer a balcony... but some people prefer to cruise more often with less cabin.

We looked at a friends interior room once, it did look really cramped in there, we have had balconies every cruise
