RSW Posted April 20, 2008 #1 Share Posted April 20, 2008 We are looking to book another cruise. What a shock! :o Which Carnival ships have cabins that will hold five of us. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beccadoby Posted April 20, 2008 #2 Share Posted April 20, 2008 Fantasy class you can actually book 5 in an inside or OV- not that I really recommend it (5 people in 185 sq ft). But, I do have people book that way everyday. I would recommend the cat 12 suite. Or a set of connecting cabins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurricane Girl Posted April 20, 2008 #3 Share Posted April 20, 2008 I know that the Triumph does. When I was booking, my PVP was talking about it. From my understanding they use a roll-away bed for the 5th person. If I am wrong about the type of bed I hope that someone corrects me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DqALEX Posted April 20, 2008 #4 Share Posted April 20, 2008 I was on the Triumph and we had 5 of us in a cat 12 suite. Never again. Too many people for one bathroom. Now we get two balcony rooms side by side and open the balcony divider. I like that we have two bathrooms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KroozNut Posted April 20, 2008 #5 Share Posted April 20, 2008 IMHO 5 people in ANY cabin is insane, but that's just me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VentureMan_2000 Posted April 20, 2008 #6 Share Posted April 20, 2008 Ships that will accomodate 5 to a cabin are: Holiday Celebration Fantsy Ectasy Sensation fascination Imagination Inspiration Elation Paradise Destiny Triumph Victory I understand that you need to book a quad bed cabin... and they will wheel in a 5th bed. Best of luck. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSW Posted April 20, 2008 Author #7 Share Posted April 20, 2008 I know it will make for tight quarters but we are just trying to save money. :eek: Thanks for the info:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least two or three of you will be sleeping on either the a) floor, b) bathtub, c) closet; or in one of the lounges.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurricane Girl Posted April 21, 2008 #9 Share Posted April 21, 2008 What are the ages of the people? If you are like us we never spend time in our cabin, except to sleep and shower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nybumpkin Posted April 21, 2008 #14 Share Posted April 21, 2008 myself ,DH 15, 11, 7. yes, we sleep and shower in shifts:p We've done this twice - the last time, our sons were 15, 10 and 6 so similar ages. I found that having a quad balcony with the extra bed brought in worked well for us - the balcony was like having an extra room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoinCruisin Posted April 21, 2008 #15 Share Posted April 21, 2008 Price out 2 insides also, sometimes booking 2 cabins comes out very close to booking 5 in one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travelitis Posted April 21, 2008 #16 Share Posted April 21, 2008 Give me the privacy of a cabin for us and one for the kids plus a 2nd bathroom over 5 beds and a balcony any day! I'll gladly take an inside not to have have to take turns dressing in that bathroom or having to go to the spa to shower because of the waitlist for the facilities in my cabin.

dmdiver Posted April 21, 2008 #18 Share Posted April 21, 2008 we always book 2 side by side cabins, 3 in one, 2 in the other. i do not want to share a bathroom with all my kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jennieW Posted April 21, 2008 #19 Share Posted April 21, 2008 We had originally booked 5 in 1 cabin, but I came to my senses:D about 2 weeks before our cruise and booked an additional inside cabin. It was only about $700.00 difference and was a life saver. We had 2 bathrooms, plenty of bed space. If we would have kept the original cabin with 5 people, no one would have been able to get up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom or get up earlier than anyone else in the cabin because you wouldn't have been able to move around the roll-away bed in the little space there is for it!!!

btcruzin Posted April 21, 2008 #20 Share Posted April 21, 2008 On our last cruise (which was also our first:D ) we found that, because of a sale through the online booking agent, it was cheaper to get two cabins for the four of us, because the first two guests were actually cheaper than the third and fourth. I don't know how easy it is to get that sort of deal, but it was Spring Break and kind of last minute so maybe it doesn't happen all the time. We will all 4 be in one cabin at Christmas, but will have a balcony that joins with my sister's family so I'm hoping that will give us the space we need. Also, my Mom will be in her own cabin, so I hope she's willing to host Happy Hour and share her shower! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
