Cabin 10167 next to the entrance to the art storage closet and looking into the storage closet.

We just got off the Gem this morning and started out in cabin 10167. The location is excellent and very quiet. The 3 days we were in that cabin, we never heard or saw our neighbors.. however, starting at 5:45 am, we were woken up with horrible banging on the walls and lots of noise in that “empty” space next to that cabin. We found out on day 3 that it is the storage room for the art auction. Workers came in several times a day to change out the art paintings. We asked our cabin steward (Vincent, who was fabulous, btw) about the noise and he told us to go the service desk to see if the workers could try and be a little quiet, at least in the morning. We know they have a job to do, but they should never put a cabin in that space. It’s like it’s put in the middle of a warehouse. Anyway, we went back to our cabin after we went down and spoke with someone. We got a call about 20 min later from the service desk saying they had another cabin available on the same floor and they would show us and let us move there if wanted to. They also said they would help move us.  We took the new cabin and bugged out that night. (We got cabin 10069) It was still a little noisy at times, but way better than cabin 10167. The next day, we found a bottle of wine and a tray of chocolates in our room from the service desk for our troubles with the other cabin! It was a great cabin and location, except for the noise next to it. I’m sorry to report how noisy this room is. If you have any other questions, I’ll be happy to answer them! Have a great cruise! 

We just got off the Vista this morning! It was an amazing ship!

Yes! We booked a balcony cabin for our anniversary on the Glory and carnival called and offered us a suite for around $500 more. It was a lot of money, but we took it and so glad we did!! It was just the 2 of us on a 7 day cruise, but the extra space and having the tub was great! We just got a call again for our upcoming Vista cruise to go from a ocean view to a balcony, and we took it! I asked if they were offering any suites in the upgrade, and sadly, they were not.

Nice pick! Next to balconies, these are our favorite cabins. We'll be in 7202 on our Vista cruise.

Hi! We'll be on the Vista in Nov in this cabin! I can't wait! Can you take pictures of this cabin and post them? When we booked, (almost 600 days ago! :eek:) it was a reg cabin. Several months ago, we were told it was changed into a handicap acceptable cabin. Today, talking to my pvp, she said it's not a HC room any longer. (She didn't get any notification of the change) Now I'm dying to know what the room looks like, lol. Hope you have a great cruise! :)

Thanks for coming back to the review. Hope you're feeling better!!

I've used one for the past 2 cruises and plan on bringing one for our next cruise. I hate clutter on the counters and I can never find things all shoved into drawers. This works great for us. I put all of my shoes (I don't bring that many) electronic cords, aloe, sunscreen etc. It folds flat and is easy to pack. I do cut a couple rows off the bottom, as it's usually to long and I don't need that many pockets! :rolleyes::):o

Like others have said, room service chocolate cake is excellent!! The chocolate chip cookies are good too!

I just found your reviews and they're amazing! Thanks for sharing. Wish this one was done..

We had free wifi at the beach. It was slow, but I was able to get my FB post out! :)

We booked one of these cabins for our Vista cruise. I've heard good things about it and we've been up on those decks during sailaway or pulling into port, and it's never very crowded.

We had cabin 8232 on the Breeze last month and loved it! We never heard people below us on deck 5. The only thing below us were deck chairs. The giant chess set was far enough back and no hot tubs near us either. We thought it was a perfect location, so I think deck 9 will be just as great! Enjoy your cruise!

We had a balcony on deck 8, forward, and never had an issue with privacy. Sitting on the balcony, I never noticed deck 5 below us. If standing at the rail, you could see people, but we were high enough up that we could never hear anyone. We chose this deck for that reason.

Just got off the Breeze.. That's my vote! It's a beautiful ship!!

We were on this cruise with you. Can't wait to read your review!

I never go without my camera. It's just a little point and shoot one, so the camera bag is just a tiny cross body bag big enough for the camera and one small pocket (meant to hold the extra battery) that I use for my S&S card. It works perfect on the ship. On land, we had one of those flip top waterproof cases to keep with us when snorkeling.. it wasn't waterproof. It was meant to be, but everything inside got wet. I just ordered a waterproof pouch from amazon (can't remember the name) but it got high ratings. I'm looking forward to trying it out on our Breeze cruse!

tlcs - both dresses are pretty!

you confidence really comes through in the pic with the red dress...so even sitting down, it's great :D

Thank you so much! I lost 50lbs for that cruise, (and to get healthy) and I was really feeling great!

Thank you! It was the first time I had really dressed up like that in years! Hoping to fine more pretty dresses for our Breeze cruise!

Here's another on from our Glory cruise. I wish I had a better one of me standing in the dress, but I don't.

This is my dress from our Glory cruise.

We're booked on the Breeze for February! It's our first time on her too, and I can't wait!!

Great review! My daughter lives in NYC, so we go down to visit her quite a bit, but we've never cruised from there. It's on my bucket list!

We snorkeled at the Money Bar about 3 weeks ago, and saw tons of fish! I would definitely go back!

On our Paradise cruise a few weeks ago, their were 2 boys, about 9 & 11 (guessing) sitting in the seats in front of there parents during the adult comedy show. I was very upset as the comedian was very raunchy and these boys were aloud to sit through it. Someone approached them, and the boys pointed to two adults, half asleep in the booth, but nothing was ever done and they were aloud to stay. So, to answer your question, I would think your son would be allowed to stay.

I love your review and the the pictures!
