Step 1: Decide what type of cabin you would like.
There are four main types (categories)
of cabins:
Inside cabins:
These cabins are usually the lowest price.
Typically they will have twin beds that
convert to a queen size, a private bath
with a shower, a closet for hanging clothes,
a dresser and a television. These cabins
do not have a window to let natural light
in. To help give the occupants an impression
of having a view, some inside cabins have
a virtual view. That means there is a large
screen that displays outside views. Expect
to pay $100 to $200 a night for an inside
cabin.
Exception: Carnival has several
cabins which are classified as inside cabins
but actually have a french glass door which
allows light into the room (no balcony,
but the door can be opened). Carnival also
has some cabins that have a window, but
because the window has an obstructed view
(that means there is a railing or object
in the way) it is listed as an inside cabin.
Royal Caribbean has some cabins that have
a window but look out over an inside promenade
area. These are called "promenade staterooms".
Oceanview cabins:
These cabins
are like inside cabins but usually have
a port hole or window. A window is much
more desirable than a porthole because the
porthole can be difficult to look through.
Windows will vary in size and some cabins
will even have full floor to ceiling windows.
Most window sizes for oceanview cabins are
about 4 feet by 3 feet. Be sure to
read the cabin description carefully to
determine if there is a different type of
window. Windows can not be opened.
Expect to pay $150 to $250 a night for an
oceanview.
Balcony cabins:
These cabins are better, and more expensive,
than oceanview cabins because they typically
have full glass sliding doors that lead
to a balcony. The balcony allows fresh air
and light into the cabin and also may have
additional chairs or loungers. Balconies
tend to be separated by dividers which give
some sense of privacy, but be aware that
most balconies are not fully private and
can be viewed from above or by the cabin
next to you. Balconies on new Norwegian
Cruise Line ships and Princess Cruise Line
ships tend to be smaller and more narrow
than balconies on other ships. We
will list balcony size in the cabin description.
Carnival offers what is called a "Cove
Balcony" on some of their ships.
These balconies are very popular because
they sit lower on the ship (closer to the
water line). Expect to pay $200 to
$400 a night for an balcony cabin.
Suite:
A suite is a premium
cabin on a cruise ship. It is usually much
larger than a balcony and includes more
perks. Suites typically have a full bath
tub, large shower, larger closets, larger
balcony, larger TV, and butler services.
Expect to pay $400 to over $1,000 a night
for a suite.
Step 2: Decide where you would like the cabin located.
Cabins are priced based on location on the ship. Typically cabins on lower decks are less expensive. Typically cabins midship (in the middle part of a deck) cost higher. Balcony and Suite cabins on the very aft of the ship can also be more expensive than other cabins.In order to set the pricing many cruise lines will divide each cabin type into sub categories. For example a balcony cabin may be divided into sub categories such as B1, B2, B3, B4. In most cases the cabin size and features in a sub category is the exactly the same. The only difference is usually the location of the cabin on the ship. Please look for the notes on the category descriptions to determine if there is a difference in size or features between the subcategories.
Exception: Royal Caribbean and other cruise lines will also use sub categories to distinquish between how many occupants the cabin will sleep. Therefore a cabin that can sleep up to 4 people will be a different sub category from a cabin that sleeps only 2 people.
You can also use our drag deck feature to determine if your cabin is in a good location. Cabins are best located when they are next to, above or below other cabins. As a rule of thumb avoid booking a cabin under a public area or kitchen. If you are looking for a balcony cabin, please be aware that on many ships the cabins that are below the pool deck may also be shaded by a roof overhang from the deck above. You can also use our drag deck feature to determine if there is a overhang.
We are one of the largest cruise ship deck plans websites in the world. We have over 234
ocean cruise ships in
our database. For each ship we show the most current cruise ship deck plan. We also show you each cabin
type for that ship. Within each cabin type we provide detail diagrams, pictures, features, square footage and
more. We also list each handicap cabin and the deck it is on.
And there is still more. Click on each deck and roll over any cabin. A pop up window will appear showing you
the cabin category and diagram along with square footage. On each deck you will also see picture icons that you
can scroll over to see actual cruise ship pictures of that spot on the ship.
Still want more? We have it. Click on the drag deck plan link to view all the decks on one page. You can then drag
a deck on top of another deck and see what is above or below that deck. We have a link to ship pictures and other ship
information. We list all the main features for each ship including a listing of features NOT on that ship. This helps to
make researching cruise ships so easy and so fun!
We know that you do not want to scroll up and down a very long page or to go
from page to page to find the information you are looking for. That is why our deck plan page is TRULY INTERACTIVE. We give
you power at your finger tips to find the information you are looking for. It is all available from one page and usually just
a click away.
We hope you enjoy!
