You’ve heard the stories of hotel and resorts bedding. Some is soooo soft you sink into it and some as hard as rock. Bedding and room types are personal to each individual and couple in a hotel as well as on a cruise.
If you think of a hotel room type and a cabin on a cruise ship you are going to be able to relate to what type of accommodations you would prefer.
As with many hotels and resorts now around the world, they now have signature bedding. The same goes for cruise lines. So if you prefer a softer bed or a bed of rock you can be accommodated for your personal choice – all you have to do is ask. The cruise line can not know before hand of your bed type unless they are told before hand. Two friends traveling together and need two twin beds – ask. Want a queen or king bed – ask.
As well as bedding room types vary as well. If when you travel you just want a place to put down your head at night and don’t want to pay more for allot of extras – get an inside cabin. These are always the least expensive cabins on a cruise ship.
You are a bit claustrophobic and need some light in your cabin – get an ocean view cabin or a cabin with a balcony to be able to open the door and get some fresh air.
Want a bit of privacy when sun bathing or relax alone – get a balcony cabin or a suite with a balcony.
When you travel you only get the very best with all the luxury you deserve there are large suites with private balconies, living rooms, dining rooms and private butler service. There are even some ships that offer private villas with their own jacuzzi and pool areas.
So when choosing your cabin needs think of what your preferred room type and bedding type as well. Each cabin has plenty of storage space and offers the basic amenities. As you add extra amenities the cost goes up a bit. There are private bathrooms with showers in each cabin with a good size closet space, small desk/vanity, beds, mirrors, towels and complimentary bath and shower products that varies from cruise line to cruise line.
As you move to a larger more expensive cabin type more amenities will be available to each passenger. The cost from one cabin type to another is sometimes less than $100.00 per person and is worth the extra space and amenities.
Each cruise ship is compliant to the American Disabilities Act and has cabins specially designed for wheelchairs, if this is needed. These cabins are usually larger overall, so if you are booking a cruise for a last minute get-a-way ask if there are any of these cabins still available for sale. They are often held aside for special requests for people with special needs. If they are not sold they can be requested.
So think about your own bedroom when picking a cabin on your first cruise – decide if you want to just have a basic cabin or are you going to treat yourself to a bit of pampering for some really sweet dreams.
