Carnival Excel Presidential SuiteThe Excel Presidential Suite offers a 475-square-foot cabin and an even larger balcony: 645 square feet (larger than many cabins on board these ships).
Ocean-view: Most Ocean View cabins (185 to 230 square feet) feature 4-by-3-foot windows (either with full or obstructed view), though a handful have a porthole instead. Deluxe outside cabins are slightly larger (230 square feet) and can sleep up to five.
Some are a little extra space; others are the size of luxury apartments. Some things to think about when comparing balcony cabins and suites include price, size of cabin and balcony, inclusive benefits, the number of bathrooms, separate living space, theming and access to exclusive areas onboard.
In most cases, an upgraded cabin is always better than the most basic room on board. The only thing stopping you from splurging on a larger space, a private balcony and extra perks is your budget. If you change your mind once you've booked, you'll find several ways to upgrade your cabin to a higher-category room.

If you're after views, the best room on a cruise ship will be a balcony cabin at the ship's rear end. Aft balcony accommodations at the ship's corners are also the largest and often give more outside area than conventional balcony cabins, allowing you to enjoy both the beautiful views and the extra space.
Family-Friendly: Designed with families in mind, these staterooms accommodate up to five people and thankfully come with an extra bathroom. Great for groups too, thanks to connecting doors. Upper deck: Consider a stateroom on the upper deck of your ship.
That's why many Carnival staterooms can be configured in different ways — some sleep up to five! Keep the group together. Some cabins have connecting rooms with a common door between them.
Choose a port side stateroom for sunsets. Go with starboard for sunrises. Headed south or east? Go port side for sunrises and starboard for the sunset.
Eastbound cruises get the most sun on the port side; westbound on the starboard side. Watching a sunset over the ocean or seeing the sun slip behind distant islands can also be a reason for a side preference. To catch sunsets, you'll want to be on the port side on northbound cruises and starboard on southbound cruises.
As of March 9, 2023, the newest ship in the fleet is the Carnival Celebration, the second Excel-class vessel in the fleet. A third ship in the same class, named Carnival Jubilee, will expand the fleet even further when she arrives in December 2023.
Midship staterooms on the lowest passenger deck are the most excellent spot to be on a cruise ship in this instance because you don't feel the vessel sway as much.
Generally, Deck 7 is considered a good deck to have a cruise cabin, but it will depend on the ship. Deck 7 is normally roughly the same distance between the dining rooms and the pool decks, and it is normally surrounded by cabins above and below.
For passengers looking to enjoy views, especially the scenery in the wake of a ship, we recommend higher decks and the back of the vessel. The higher you pick, the farther you'll see. If you're after views, the best room on a cruise ship will be a balcony cabin at the ship's rear end.
Even on smaller, more luxurious ships that don't feel crowded, a balcony is desirable; if the weather is such that you can spend a lot of time on your balcony, it's like having an additional room.
Upgrades are automatically assigned at the time of booking and are based on availability in like to like categories only (interior to interior, ocean view to ocean view and balcony to balcony). Free room location upgrade is not available on upper/lower, obstructed, and cove categories.
