aidansaunt2004 Posted March 24, 2012 #1 Share Posted March 24, 2012 I am looking at the Liberty for a cruise. I know the scenic oceanview cabins with the large windows have been replaced by balconies. Carnival is telling me they still have "scenic" OVs but they have a standard window and access to a deck outside of your cabin for viewing. Does anyone know what cabins they are referring to? Does your window overlook the ocean or the deck? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thompsolonian Posted March 25, 2012 #3 Share Posted March 25, 2012 Just book is and find out! You probably are not going to be there that much besides sleeping anyway. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aidansaunt2004 Posted March 25, 2012 Author #4 Share Posted March 25, 2012 We spend quite a bit of time in our cabin. I want to make an informed decision, not an impulse one. I'm trying to find out if anyone has info on the current "scenic" ov cabins before I book one. I am specifically looking for info on the cabins that have a viewing deck. I haven't seen anything about these cabins, which is why I am asking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlaGrl4Evr Posted March 25, 2012 #5 Share Posted March 25, 2012 I think that you may be referring to the 4j cabins. The inside obstructed views. Here is a CC thread that has some good information on this cabin catagory. http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=1576754&highlight=4j Here is another good thread that has pictures. http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=1500920&highlight=4j :):) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iahawkize Posted March 25, 2012 #6 Share Posted March 25, 2012 I am looking at the Liberty for a cruise. I know the scenic oceanview cabins with the large windows have been replaced by balconies.

Does your window overlook the ocean or the deck? I have a link which shows the 2 cabins on the Liberty to which you refer. These are possibly the more expensive cabins on the ship as they not only have a balcony but floor to ceiling windows. They are cabin #'s 9199 & 9200 ( Lido Deck ) directly over the bridge and the balconies are on the outriggers of the bridge so you can actually look back along the side of the ship. http://www.beyondships.com/CarnivalLiberty-Profile.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mondello Posted March 25, 2012 #7 Share Posted March 25, 2012 Valor has the scenic OV cabins, have you considered Valor? Both ships are out of Miami right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aidansaunt2004 Posted March 25, 2012 Author #8 Share Posted March 25, 2012 We checked the Valor. The scenic rooms are already booked for the time frame we are interested in. The rooms above the bridge look amazing! My husband likes inside cabins, but I like to see outside so I thought we could compromise with an OV. I've seen photos and videos of the old scenic ov cabins on the Liberty. It's sad that they were replaced with balconies. They looked nice. The more I think about it, I think the cabin I was told about is probably obstructed. He mentioned it had a normal sized window and the cabin is next to an observation deck. I was hoping we would still have an ocean view. We had an inside spa cabin on the Dream and we had access to an observation deck. We spent time there every day. It's like having one huge balcony :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sail2sea Posted March 25, 2012 #9 Share Posted March 25, 2012 Valor's scenic OV rooms are AWESOME! But I don't think Liberty has the same OV rooms as on Valor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aidansaunt2004 Posted March 25, 2012 Author #10 Share Posted March 25, 2012 The ov cabins by the captain's suites on the Valor look amazing. The. Liberty didn't have cabins like those but they had OVs with floor to ceiling windows on the spa deck. They were transformed into balconies when the 2.0 upgrades took place.
