Disney Cruise Line Stateroom Number 9578

Notes: This was our 2nd time staying in 9578. We enjoyed the location our first trip so much, we booked the same stateroom. It's not too far from the elevators, but not too close. The only noise came from kids running down the hall. :) Both times, we were able to view Castaway Cay's main beaches when docked there. It comfortably sleeps 5, including our 12 year old, 9 year old, and 4 year old. Th real reason the "space" works is due to the under bed storage for all of our suitcases, the dresser drawers & closet space for the majority of our clothes, and the stateroom host's ability to put away the murphy bed and upper berth beds each morning. Also, having a small refrigerator in the room allowed us to bring some juice & milk from the dining options so we can just hang out in the room if we want. Our verandah balcony has the glass view instead of the whitewall, allowing even our little one to see out into the vast ocean, or as we dock in various ports. This room works for our family, so we booked it again!

Notes: This stateroom does have the murphy bed, so it can accomodate 5. It is an adjoining cabin with 9576 and the verandah divider can be opened to link the two verandahs. The TV flaked out twice and had to be reset by maintenance, but aside from that, it was a great stateroom in a great location. The deck 9 mid location made it easy to run up to deck 11 and get to the beverage station and quick food service.

Notes: Great room and location. It did have the small "obstructed" view on veranda but it didn't bother us at all. Very close to mid-ship elevators. Starboard side of ship so we had a view of Castaway Cay and would have had a view of Atlantis but were in between 2 Carnival ships. Lifeboat drill station was in the Buena Vista Theater. We would definitely stay here again!

Notes: convenient to elevators/stairs; not noisy; view from verandah in Bahamas was of Atlantis Paradise/when at Castaway Cay view was of the island; lots of room in this stateroom-queen bed, sofa bed, pull-down bed from the ceiling, and murphy bed from the wall (when murphy bed is out getting out on the verandah is a little difficult but most of the time we just pushed the bed back up to the wall until it was time to actually go to sleep. Shower was amazing-had the handheld and the rainshower in the ceiling of the shower/round tub! lots of storage cabinets in the stateroom also!
