Carnival Victory- Port or Starboard?

[linkinsama]

Which side of the boat is better for good port views? We might spring for the aft balcony but if not, which side should we book?

[linkinsama]

also, does anyone have recommendations on cabin levels in the 8C-8G range? (balcony cabins) Is there ANY difference in these other than location? (aside from the aft balconies, I know those are different)

It's really not going to matter. Depending on which direction the ship docks and which dock it uses, it's usually always a different side. Sometimes they pull in bow first and you can see from both sides. ;)

Also check out the forward ocean view. This group of cabins are located next to the secret doors that opens up to the forward observation decks.

What secret doors?

What secret doors?

 

Forward observation decks open to passengers can be found all the way forward on decks 6,7,9 and 10. Deck 9 (Lido) has the best view with the flying wings that extend beyond the sides of the ship.

I booked an 8D and ended up on the 8th floor under the Lido deck. Never again. It was noisy early in the AM and late in the PM every day.

 

Our balcony was port and let me list the islands

St Thomas - we were opposite the gangway, but had a great view of the harbor

Dominica - we were on the same side as the gangway

Babados - we were opposite the gangway, but had a better view of the island

St Lucia - I don't remember! (it was New Years day if that tells you anything) I will look at my pictures and see if it helps at all

Antigua - we were on the same side as the gangway

St Kitts - we were on the same side as the gangway
