Creator's Key Takeaways

We are on the Carnival Encounter and we are in an obstructed ocean view cabin on deck 8. This is cabin 8605.

We've been in lots of cabins where it doesn't have that. So just these little touches that actually are quite nice.

We found in this particular cabin, it was very well maintained. There was no um there was no scuffs and dents or damage anywhere.

This would be a great cabin even for a longer holiday. I think this would suit you for kind of um a week um up to two weeks.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Bring your own hair styling products as the provided dryer is basic.
Use the provided USB hub for charging devices instead of power boards.
Leave towels on the floor if you want them changed.
Be aware that the obstructed view has lifeboats and a deck below, but it's still a nice size window.

YouTube Video Description

#carnivalcruiseline #carnivalcruiselines #carnivalcruise We recently spent 3 nights in Obstructed Oceanview Cabin 8605 on Carnival Encounter which is Carnival category 5A. This video is our full tour and review of this cabin after having spent a few nights on board. Obstructed Ocean view cabins are a great way to keep the cruise cost down as they are usually cheaper than full ocean view cabins but you still get some view and natural light. On the Carnival Encounter they are generally located on Deck 8 midships which is also a great place to be on the ship.
