I'm a relatively new resident to huntington, and actually live in south huntington - near West Hills. I grew up in NJ, and lived in Hewlett, East Meadow, Hicksville, and Amityville (where we owned a home for 5 1/2 years and sold while the sellin' was good) - and now are in Huntington. We've only been here for about a year and a half.

Just wanted to share a great site to look for cabins. cruisedeckplans.com Click on Carnival then on Miracle.

Just wanted to share a great site to look for cabins. cruisedeckplans.com Click on Carnival then on Miracle.

then if you click on cabin details by deck, you can then scroll to specific cabins on that deck to get details on it's(the cabin) content.

[MonaCK]

I like cruisedeckplans to get a general idea, but it doesn't tend to separate out some of the categories - for example, if you look up balconies on Miracle, it doesn't give pics of the extended balcony cabins...

[Crusin Karen]

I think if you want a picture of a specific balcony, you have to google or search. I have asked a couple of times here and someone always comes thru with what I'm looking for. :D Sometimes it's just a picture of the outside of the ship where you can see your balcony.

because not all extended balconies are the same- some re bigger then others.

 

ex:

 

 

 

both are cat 8C extended balcony

Ouch, those chairs don't look very comfortable. Don't they have the blue and white web chairs on Miracle? We always get aft wraparound balcony. When we were on Spirit last month there were only 2 web chairs. We asked our cabin steward for a lounge chair and he said they don't allow them on balconies anymore :confused: :confused: Anyone heard of this? Seemed silly to have a huge balcony with only 2 "little chairs." :(

when I was on the Miracle in October some of the cabins had already been switched to the mesh.........they removed our deck section the night before we returned home(putting the new chairs out after we disembarked)........there was a note stating if we wanted our furniture that last night they would not remove it.

[serene56]

The chairs are ok--comfortable wise-- one will recline back.

We had beige mesh chairs on the Liberty last cruise and they were better.

 

If the cabin steward tells you no lounge chairs--go to the pursers desk and request one. Tell them you are in the wrap around balcony. There is a difference. Most regular balconies wont be able to hold a lounge chair.

We too, will be on the Empress deck for our first balcony so be sure and let us know what you find out! We will be in 6228, an extended balcony near the back, one of the bumped in sections. We leave in 24 days. Enjoy your cruise.

We stayed by the elevators, midship, and it was not noisy at all. From what other people on here say about the aft cabin area, it's also very quiet

 

Deck 5 is great cause it's sandwiched between two decks that have only cabins. If I ever sail the Miracle again, which I hope I will, I am definitely going to book a cabin on deck 5 again.

 

I just posted a note on our old roll call sailing asking her the name of the Hotel. it was located in NJ in Weehawken I think. If she doesn't get back to me on the thread, I will email her and let you know.

[4kidsplusty]

thank you for your quick response. I will check back to see what you found out

[MonaCK]
