How to choose a cabin

There are a lot of considerations to take into account when choosing your cabin for your next cruise but the two most important are the cost and the location.

Some things you might like to consider:

1. Price - if you are only going to consider this one item then choose the cheapest fare you can get.
2. How many people are sharing the cabin - this will impact on the size of the cabin and the layout. Check the deck plans and cabin categories carefully. If you are a large family you might need two cabins.
3. Location - if you get seasick like I do, then you will want a mid ship location on a lower deck. If you are going with family, you might like to be closer to the public areas of the ship for quick access. Lower decks are cheaper though but you may hear more engine noise. Aft balconies are larger than usual sizes for the same category as they wrap around the back of the ship. Ill stick to the mid ship location though where I know I am more stable.
4. Cabin categories - inside, outside, balcony and suite -Inside cabins give the best value but can be dark.Outside cabins offer more light but are usually the same size as inside (before booking check whether you have a porthole, a window or an obstructed view). Balcony cabins have access to a small balcony where you can sit and watch the sea or when you come into/out of port. Suites have larger cabins and bathrooms usually but are also the most expensive. When you book a guarantee cabin you book the category but not the specific cabin so its a bit more of a lucky dip where you will end up but then again you may be upgraded.
5. How much time are you going to spend in the cabin - If you spend most of the time out of your cabin then maybe a lower category will be better value. If you like to relax in your cabin then a balcony or suite may be your better choice.

I hope this information helps you make a decision but any cabin is better than none at all.  Enjoy your cruise!
