Cabin 9330 - Carival's dirty little secret is that they know about a major defect in sound buffering (or lack thereof) on previous ships that apparently has been amplified on the Carnival Dream. When we tried to sleep at 2 AM the first night it sounded like a wedding reception was going on above us on the pool deck level. I went up there and there were just a few people there so I was baffled. I called down to Guest Services and they promised to send someone to investigate, that never happened. The second day the same noise was shaking the room and again I contacted Guest Services and no one came. Finally I went down there and compelled a young lady to come to the room and hear it for herself. She immediately heard the banging and screeching and said that there was no way we could sleep in the cabin. In there interim we were provided EARPLUGS!!!!
Cabin 6438 - When we were in the cabin trying to sleep the noise and the vibration from the beat in the disco below us was really loud.
Cabin 6235 - we were directly above the Encore and you could hear the entire show clearly from our room. It wasn't too bad since we would usually be getting ready to go to dinner when the 1st show would come on but there were a couple of times when we were napping after coming onboard from a port, and the band would be practicing and would wake us up.
Cabin 9362 - right next to the elevators and housekeeping storeroom (think carts and vacuums in and out). We heard no noise whatsoever.
Category 9A aft wraps on the Carnival Dream are NOT all equal! Deck 6 has full wrap with couch, table/chairs,etc. Larger room and big balcony. 2 of these rooms: 6479, 6492. Deck 7 has large wrap (not as large as deck 6), apparently no sofa, but has table/chairs. Rooms 7454, 7459. Deck 8 has two small rooms (no wrap balcony, SMALLEST balcony of the three decks, apparently no couch, barely able to get around the bed). Rooms 8466, 8473.
We are cruising on the dream in may. we have not booked an balcony cabin yet. would someone help us with the best deck and maybe cabin area. we were thinking deck 8 ..verandah. happy cruising to all.
Reply to Liz: Yes, you are right. Verandah deck would be a great location. I would suggest either a category 8D (cabins colored green) or one of the aft balconies (alittle more money). This deck has passenger cabins both above and below it, so there should be no noise issues. Plus you will be located more in the center of the ship and therefore find it easier to get to the different places on the ship. Enjoy your cruise.
Would you recommend the spa deck for a honeymoon cruise?
Reply to Liz: The Spa deck cabins do offer special spa perks that may make your honeymoon more memorable. You will pay extra for that, so I guess it all depends on what you and your spouse like to do on a cruise. You will be higher up on the ship, so there could be some motion issues. But many people like being up closer to the pool deck.
I have a question that I am hoping for a quick response. Panorama Deck bow cabins maybe 11246 or 11245.. will i get any noise from the WaterWorks on Spa Deck. Should I consider booking there? This is where we want to be.
Reply to Liz: I am not sure what the white space is over cabin 11246, but cabin 11245 looks like it should be a good pick. Other cabins on that same side of the ship might even be better, such as cabin 11237 because they are alittle bit further away from the elevators and stairs. You should not be bothered at all by water works. Keep in mind that you are higher up on the ship so there is a possiblity that you will feel more ship motion here.
Just got off the Dream Transatlantic. stayed in 11242, and no noise at all. YOu will love these cabins.
I was not happy with my cabin 7317 our balcony is over those new hot tubs that stick out on the side of the ship. When we went out on our balcony and look down we are right above the hot tub. NOISIE and nothing like watching people in the hot tub being dumb. Alot of noice! DO NOT get a room that is near one of those hot tubs!
Anyone have photos of the premium 9A category with the wrap around balcony - - that's not a wrap around on the Dream? Understand they skimped exceedingly on the corner cabins, but still charging a premium. Would love to see photos! Also, please be aware that the deck plans for these cabins are not accurate and the same may be true for other cabins.
I don't have a picture of the cabins, but here is a picture of the outside of the ship showing the cabin 9C's. You are correct that these cabins are different on this ship than on other ships. You will notice the balcony size changes depending on which deck you are on.

Keep in mind when booking upper deck balconies that some cabins may not be as private as others. Attached pictures show view of hot tubs and view of balconies from hot tubs.


View from the Cove Balconies while at sea:
I would like to hear some feedback from somebody that has stayed in one of the cove balcony cabins. Noise, etc. I am considering one of these for our Dream cruise. Thanks.
I have connecting cabins, 8353 and 8357, booked for February. According to Carnival and the deck plan, it appears that the balcony divider does not open between the two, but they each open to the cabins on the other side, which makes no sense. Can anyone confirm that connecting balconies do not have balconies that connect? Thanks!
Reply to Darci - It looks like a design flaw. The reason the divider doesn't open between cabins 8353 and 8357 is the balcony door of cabin 8353 is on the right side of the wall and the balcony door of 8357 is on the left side of the wall. So if the balcony divider was to be open then one of the balcony doors would be blocked.
Thanks for the reply. It appears that none of the connecting balcony cabins also have dividers that open. So if you're traveling with family in balcony cabins, you have to choose whether you want theconnecting door between the cabins, or the balcony that opens up. You don't get both. They must have done that for a reason, but I can't imagine what.
We stayed in a cove balcony. We lovedit. You can sit and still see out...the cove doesn't block the view. And being so close to the ocean was wonderful! I would book one again in a heartbeat. An added plus...it's less expensive then a regular balcony.
We just returned from an Eastern Caribbean in cabin 2488, a Main deck "cove". We were more than pleased with the cove balcony!!!! There was not one negative thing I can say about our "cove", except we hhad to wipe sea salt off the railing every morning! We hae had higher balconies in previous cruises, but this beat them all for privacy, especially in port!
for someone in the cove balconies, what is the white space across the hall? I have cabin 2374?
The white space is usually crew areas, like maids closets. I stayed in that room and never herd anything from across the hall. It was quiet all the time.
We were in Cabin 2375 just below the end of the galley. During the day we heard nothing at all from the galley. But at night, all kinds of banging, dragging tables across the floor and general noise from about 10pm until 3am EVERY night.
Dream Cabin 1442 - Does anyone have an opinion on this cabin?
This cabin is on the very bottom and in the back corner. Do you think I should request a new location, ormaybe evenspring for an upgrade? The Travel Agent said there may be free upgrades available, but I dont want to risk it and be stuck with a bad room.
Thanks!
Reply to Joe: Joe, You really have to decide what is important to you when picking a room. Clearly price is important to you (which is fine) as you are booked in one of the least expensive Oceanview categories. Moving up a category or two within the oceanview class won't cost you very much (usually $10/person) and may give you a much bigger selection. I can tell you from experience that some areas of the ship are VERY noisy. In particular, I'd suggest avoiding ANY room directly under the Galley if you are a light sleeper. Similarly, you want to avoid rooms directly above/below lounges. Finally, location is important if you don't want to walk a whole lot to get from place to place. Where you are now, you'll have to walk a LONG way to get to anything located in the front of the ship. I am currently considering a cruise on the dream and am most likely going to book a Category 6M cabin on the first floor between the front bank of elevators and the middle bank of elevators. Ideally, I'll be two decks below the crimson restaurant but NOT directly (two decks) below the galley.
Stay away from 2375. We had it in March and nothing but noise at night from the galley above that kept us up. Carnival admitted to me we weren't the only ones that had that problem. I do have to say that Carnival did make it right in the end. But if your in that cabin don't expect to sleep, I've been told it is under a dishwasher.
We were in 2277 on our cruise in June. Absolutely loved the cove balcony. And our cabin was right over the gangplanks where everyone got on and off at the ports. It was kind of funny to watch everyone coming and going. Especially trying to get back on board at the last minute. It was in an excellent location. Close to the evevators. The only drawback was since it was so close to the elevators, there was quite a bit of noise in the hallways at nite.
Just returned off the 03-23 thru 03-30 E Carribean cruise on the Dream. We booked one of the cove balconies on our travel agent's suggestion, and we were so glad we did. LOVED the cove balcony! You're close to the water, and the best thing about them is that you are under the life-boats so that you can see and watch the whole docking experience in port. If you're above the life rafts, you can't see directly down to the dock. We were in stateroom 2417, and the only drawback to our room, was there was some type of steward room across the hall where they wash and clean items, and at times it was quite loud even during the late hours.
