thedoc29ca Posted March 5, 2019 #1 Share Posted March 5, 2019 Good day - looking for some feedback from those who have been on Carnival Magic Deck 6. With two large teenage boys we have started booking connecting inside cabins for the extra space and washroom. Connecting insides seem to be scarce on the Magic. We’ve booked interior cabins 6377 and 6379 which appear to be above the casino and casino bar. The post I’ve found via the search function seem to primarily discuss cabins above the theatre or balcony’s. Would love tohear from past cruisers who sailed in the vicinity of these cabins and their thoughts with respect to noise. Thanks in advance.

pamesacruisin Posted April 25, 2019 #2 Share Posted April 25, 2019 I am also interested about cabins on deck 6 above the casino. I always worry about what is above us, but would the casino below us be a problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaxsMama Posted April 25, 2019 #3 Share Posted April 25, 2019 I was on the magic in a balcony above the ocean plaza and never heard any noise from below. I did hear the balcony door slammers and the bbq on 5 rattling around during rough seas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evandbob Posted April 25, 2019 #4 Share Posted April 25, 2019 Noise makers on deck 5 are the casino band, the piano bar, the comedy club, and the outside hot tubs. Avoid deck 6 aft (comedy club) and the starboard deck 6 side above the band and piano bar. On the port side, just don't be directly above the hot tubs. If the OP doesn't go to bed until 1AM, then none of this matters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dani85bri06 Posted April 25, 2019 #5 Share Posted April 25, 2019 Avoid deck 6 above the Red frog Pub. We were above it on the Breeze and it was crazy loud. Thankfully we were always tired and able to sleep ok, but if your a light sleeper it would be a bad deal!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The band, with a dance floor, is about another 100 feet aft in the Ocean Plaza Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Appreciate the correction! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sredish Posted April 25, 2019 #8 Share Posted April 25, 2019 Oh gosh, this is my exact worry 😳...and I'm NOT a worrier over details like this, typically. But this is kinda stressing me out. We're in 6310 on Magic and I didn't think a thing about it when we booked the room until I saw a video someone posted from that same room on a vlog...and RIGHT out the balcony was a hot tub and it was packed with very happy people. So now I'm a little concerned. I tried to move my room with Carnival but was told that I'd have to pay an upgrade to another deck as the only available rooms in our category are in even less ideal locations, bummer.

Did the video of the packed hot tub look like it was taken at night (say between 10PM and 5AM) at a time when many people typically might be trying to sleep? Or was the video taken in daylight? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seemed you could practically participate in conversation with the hot tubbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cb1977 Posted April 27, 2019 #11 Share Posted April 27, 2019 We have stayed directly over the casino on the Sunshine. The noise wasn't a big deal but you could faintly smell the cigarette smoke from the casino in our room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can totally understand where a 2 dimensional video might give that impression. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grandmarnnurse Posted April 27, 2019 #13 Share Posted April 27, 2019 I would be very leary of booking a cabin above a deck where all the night entertainment is. I usually book a cabin on a deck sandwiched between 2 cabin only decks. I know you did this to have adjoining cabins, but do they really need to be adjoining? Both of my daughters booked cruises with kids in a separate cabin next to them that were not adjoining and they were just fine. Carnival can configure your key card to open both doors.

I love cruise critic! Just learned something new! Thank you grandmarnnurse! I didn't know they could configure your key cards to open 2 doors.

They booked one adult per cabin with kids, but will be in a cabin by themselves and kids in one cabin once they board, but asked Carnival to do this with their cards, and Carnival confirmed that they can do this.
