oceanvirw Suites

I have a question for any past oceanview suite passengers. Is there a divider that separates the main bed from the sofa bed?

I haven't cruised before (first time will be later this month), but I have looked at lots of cabin photos, and I don't see any kind of dividers in any of the rooms other than the very large suites (Captain's Suite and the like).

 

We wondered this as well when we were considering a suite, as we like to use hotel suites when we travel so we can put the kids to bed and then go into the next room. But their definition of "suite" is different.

 

We ended up going with a scenic ocean view instead. Almost as big as a suite, but cheaper.

They face each other, no divider.

we only ever cruise in oceanview rooms and there has never been a divider between the bed and the sofa bed usually the sofa bed is longways and the bed is side ways from the sofa bed

Soo technically since there is no separate bedroom with any sort of divider, these rooms are not really "suites".

They are still wonderful though and having a normal sized bathroom with a real whirlpool tub is extra lovely!

On the Sunshine OV suites 5340 and 5341 have a separate room with a door.

Those are Vista Suites.

OP, do you mean Ocean Suites (category OS)? I've not heard of Oceanview Suites before. If OceanView Suite is actually a category, what ships are they on and how do they differ from Ocean Suites?

 

ETA: The Ocean View cabins (category OV) with which I am familiar are not Suites - they are just cabins with windows and no balcony.

 

If you mean Ocean Suite, we have stayed in 2 different Ocean Suites on the Pride and they did not have a divider between the bed and the Pullman and sofa beds. We're staying in our third OS on Pride in September and I'll report back on that, if it would help.

Ocean Suites 5341 and 5340 are ocean suites not vista suites. I know because I was in one last week. The vista rooms start on deck 6.

#6258 by any chance? :D

 

I'm interested in the balcony configuration since it isn't with the other ocean suites on deck six.

No, sorry, we'll be on Deck 8 this time. We've been in Ocean Suites 6173 and 8271 before, as well as the wonderful 4237 (Vista Suite).:)

Ummmm, where did you find that technicality? I have stayed in many Carnival suites that did not have a separate room.

You are correct, I was wrong. Unique rooms (added during the retrofit), but they are called Ocean Suites.

I think that's kinda Riff's point - that Carnival calls them Suites but they aren't, really. I think he was referring to the definition of 'suite' - "a set of rooms designated for one person's or family's use or for a particular purpose." I think he's saying since it isn't a group of multiple rooms, it's not really a "Suite", which is something I've though about before, as well. However, the Ocean Suites do have that dressing room / walk-in closet / bathroom anteroom (whatever you want to think of it as), that can be closed off seperately from the bathroom on one end and the rest of the cabin on the other end. So if one wants to get really broad with the definition of a "room", the Ocean Suite could then be considered a "set of rooms".:rolleyes::p

Thanks all. I guess I meant ocean suit. Your replies have been very helpful.

here is the layout for 5340 and 5341, I found it very helpful... smaller balconies than the vista balconies, but huge suite....with separate bedroom
