Sail Date: May 2013
Cabin: Extended Balcony

We sailed on Carnival Pride May 19th out of Baltimore, Md. Embarktation was easy and relatively quick. One of the crew members directed us to the back elevator which worked out since our cabin was right there.

We stayed at a hotel the night before and took a shuttle to the port. I wasn't aware that parking was so close to the port so next time we go out of Baltimore I will probably park at the port.

The Pride was smaller that the Norwegian Jewel ( which was the other cruise we took).I was not crazy about the lounges, activities, restaurants, and casino being spread out all over the ship. There were times we missed shows, and activities trying to find out where they were located. By the end of the cruise we did have our bearings pretty much.

Cabin Review

Extended Balcony

Cabin 8K

We stayed in cabin 7299. I really liked the way it was laid out. It was cheerful and light. The mirrors in back of the bed helped make the room appear bigger.

I did not like that the shower was so small. My husband has a trach tube and it was difficult for him to shower with little space to move around. Having a hand held shower head is a great idea. We have one at home and were glad to see it in the cabin.

I liked the lights in the closets that went off and on as you open and close the doors.

The granite counters throughout the cabin was a very nice touch. Ample lighting and roomy.
