Creator's Key Takeaways

The Cove balconies are the smallest of the balconies on Carnival Jubilee and actually have a protected balcony that is watertight

this room is a standard balcony room which is a smaller balcony it's it's closer to the water line and that's pretty much the only difference

the balcony is nice it's dark out side so you're not going to be able to see but we are really close to the water line which I love

I probably wouldn't I probably get a normal balcony or somewhere in a different location of the ship uh just because of the size of this

Creator's Tips & Advice

Bring a separate cable without a brake to charge devices near the bed
Be considerate to neighbors and do not slam the heavy balcony door
Consider the size limitations if you need more room for suitcases

YouTube Video Description

In this video, we're giving you a tour of the Cove Balcony Stateroom we had on Carnival Jubilee. We had room 5330 on board this brand new Excel-Class Ship from Carnival Cruise Line. This room offers an ocean view that is much different from cruise ship balcony cabins as it is much lower on the ship and closer to the water line. This balcony is also enclosed and offers more privacy than a standard balcony stateroom. The Cove Balcony on Carnival Jubilee is the least expensive option for a balcony on this brand new cruise ship, We also give you our honest opinion of this room, go over the good and the bad, and let you know if it's worth booking or not. This was also our first cruise with Carnival Cruise Line after sailing almost exclusively with Royal Caribbean, so we give a comparison of what we experienced in this stateroom and what we've experienced on our cruises with Royal Caribbean. Is a Cove Balcony on Carnival Jubilee worth the money? Let's find out! We sailed aboard Carnival Jubilee in January of 2025. This was a 7-night itinerary that went to Cozumel, Costa Maya, and Mahogany Bay. This cruise sailed from Galveston, Texas. .
