Choosing The Right Cruise Cabin

The Captain

Cabins

There are four basic types of cruise cabins: inside cabins, outside

cabins, balcony cabins, and suites. Cruise cabins offer

luxurious suites to inside bunk-bed cabins, the choices are

numerous. Cruise cabins offer three types of views: inside (no

window), window and balcony. Inside cruise ship cabins are

comfortable, practical and peaceful, just like the outside cruise

ship cabins, which have the added feature of a window or porthole

with sea view. Cruise cabins are much smaller than hotel rooms, so

if you're worried about feeling claustrophobic or have more than

two people sharing a room, you may want to consider booking two

rooms or a suite.

The price of a cruise ship cabin or stateroom (the terms are

interchangeable) is dependent on its size, layout, and location.

For the most part, standard cruise cabins are sensibly decorated

and offer comfortable beds, reading lamps, ample storage space,

bathrooms that have either a shower (but no tub) or a small tub

with shower, and individual climate control. In addition, most

cruise cabins come with a television, telephone, hair dryer,

personal safe and a writing area with a desk and chair. Cruise

staterooms have wall-to-wall carpeting, individually controlled air

conditioning/heating, dresser or storage space, closet, telephone,

and satellite television. Some cruise cabins have VC Rs or DVD

players, and some televisions also have radio/music channels. If

you book early you have the added advantage that you have the best

choice of cruise cabins.

Staterooms with balconies have sliding glass doors, giving you

access to the outside. Cruise cabins might appear small in size,

but you will soon find all the luxuries you wanted properly fitted

into the room. Family-sized suites are cruise cabins for more than

two people are harder or impossible to find the later you book.

While inside cruise cabins are the least expensive, they have no

windows and are often quite small. Cruise ship cabins vary from

smallish, economical inside cabins to elaborate penthouse suites,

with everything in between. All cruise cabins are created for

comfort with a sensible design where you can move with ease. Cruise

ship cabins are not all created equal; however, they are all

designed for comfort, convenience, and practicality.

While most cruise ship cabins are insulated quite well, residual

noise can be a problem in high-traffic areas. Most cruise ship

cabins have in-room safes, which is where you will want to store

your passport when you are on-board the ship. Most cruise ship

cabins are built to accommodate two passengers. Please remember

that cruise ship cabins tend to be smaller than hotel rooms and

therefore, as space can be limited it is worth bringing only those

items which you know will need.

Luxury Staterooms

There are several grades of cruise ship cabins on each cruise ship.

These lovely Luxury staterooms offer a king size bed, balcony with

loungers and tables and a bathroom with bath and shower. Luxury

staterooms also have hot tubs and several extra luxuries. Larger

luxury staterooms offer over-sized balconies some with hot tubs.

Luxury cabins may offering custom Italian down bedding & Italian

linens, European white goose feather beds & pillows, Atrium

playground with projection theater screen, Cable or Satellite TV,

Turkish towels, central Heat & Air, exclusive European soaps and a

butler.

Conclusion

Nonetheless, all cruise cabins are not created equal. The best

advice is to be informed about cruise cabin and make the

right decision for you.
