bwg03 Posted January 12, 2011 #1 Share Posted January 12, 2011 (edited) Ok quick question for everyone... We are booked in 1224 on Liberty (Riviera deck). Is it worth it to get a Family Ocean View on the Spa Deck. There are 3 of us all 23-25 years old. If I were to go to the Spa Deck it would be about $200 charge I think.. Thoughts? Thanks!

Thanks! bwg03, You would be going from the lowest deck to the highest; farthest from everything to nearest to everything; small windows to floor to ceiling windows offering GREAT views; the most populated deck to the least populated deck. IMO, it would be $200 very well spent. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bwg03 Posted January 12, 2011 Author #3 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Is the room going to be that much better. I noticed its right by the spa. Are they real floor to ceiling windows? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camorelli Posted January 12, 2011 #4 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Yes, they really are floor to ceiling windows. I'll try to get a pic and post. We stayed in one of these rooms in October and it was fantastic!! We loved the room and the location of the Family Ocean View! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serene56 Posted January 12, 2011 #5 Share Posted January 12, 2011 I think the Liberty is the only ship now with floor to celing windows. THe other ships these were made into balconies/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mumofsons Posted January 12, 2011 #6 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Have stayed in 1115 - loved it! going again same room - you won't be disappointed and there is a door that will take you straight outside right to the stairs for either the lido deck or one flight up to the waterslide. It's a great location. Caution - if you sleep in make sure you don't leave the blinds open. DH and I awoke to guys painting outside our window one morning when we slept in and the ship was in port - Awkward!!! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bwg03 Posted January 18, 2011 Author #7 Share Posted January 18, 2011 So i misjudged the price. Is it worth to change from Riviera oceanview to this room for $450? Is that just too much?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wonderfullife Posted January 18, 2011 #8 Share Posted January 18, 2011 For me it would not be worth it. While it appears the views would be awesome, how often will you be in the room to enjoy them? Really, that is the key. If you plan to be in the room a lot, go for it. If you will be out taking part in activities and lounging on deck, the price difference, for me, would not be worth it. Only you can really decide that one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bwg03 Posted January 18, 2011 Author #9 Share Posted January 18, 2011 I just don't know if its worth 450. I mean yea the room is probably much better. I am going with two newbies so for them it wouldnt matter.. hmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serene56 Posted January 18, 2011 #10 Share Posted January 18, 2011 for new people-- an oceanview may be the better choice- They are not going to be using the cabin all that much and more then likly will be out and about only using the cabin for sleeping/showering and dressing. 450.00 will just about pay for the next deposit for the next cruise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We loved the location of that room too! One door from outside deck. Steps away from pool, waterslide, big chess game and just a few steps down from Camp Carnival. I'd book that room again. I can see where $450 would be too much to change for. For us it was good because my husband likes to be able to get outside for fresh air quickly.

mommyto2kids Posted January 19, 2011 #12 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Can I ask if you have confirmed you are able to do this? We want to book 2 of these rooms for a cruise in Aug. We were on the cruise with Camorelli when she took that photo, but we are being told by Carnival that we are no longer able to book this room unless you fill it to occupancy with 4 people. If you have found a way to do this I am intrigued b/c I am very frustrated with carnival right now because they won't let me book the same rooms I had 4 months ago.

If sailing during a high peak time-- cabins that hold 4 people will be held for people who want to book 3/4 people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruiseoholic000 Posted August 18, 2011 #14 Share Posted August 18, 2011 (edited) Is the cabin picture above 1115 also available on Victory? Does Carnival have rooms like this with balconies? Yes, they really are floor to ceiling windows. I'll try to get a pic and post. We stayed in one of these rooms in October and it was fantastic!!

The above photo-- the room will look like a balcony room/ what happens is they took out the window and made a balcony there. one the ships that converted the window to a balcony- these balconies are not covered.

Deval Posted August 19, 2011 #17 Share Posted August 19, 2011 we just booked 9/24 Liberty and assigned cabin 2279. we were previously booked into 2388 on 9/10 but had to change. 2279 is right behind entrance to stairs/elevators. is this going to be a busy and noisy area?? any thoughts on if we should move to a different cabin on this floor??

We have booked 7411 two times on this ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swimmom32 Posted August 19, 2011 #19 Share Posted August 19, 2011 (edited) we are in 2337 on the Liberty for November from what I can tell it appears to be a good location?...hummm What are your thoughts???

swimmom32 Posted August 19, 2011 #21 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Well it seems we might be screwed..almost everything is sold out for the room we need and Im not going to the deck below the one im on.....I guess we will have to deal with the Noise and not be happy campers.....

Deval Posted August 19, 2011 #22 Share Posted August 19, 2011 why did you move from 2388?a very good move because that cabin is smack dab in the middle of being under the galley. your other move- you should not get noise from the elevtors / stairs. We have booked 7411 two times on this ship. we were on the 9/10 sailing but something came up & we had to change to another week so picked 9/24. I now see that 2388 was right under galley - Carnival assigned us to 2279 when they booked us on 9/24 so it seems to have all worked out! : - ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just did a side-by-side comparison of deck plans & 2337 is right under Golden dining room. I've heard its quiet there since its all carpeted.
