A tour of the best cabin on the Carnival Sunshine cruise ship... cabin 9115, one of two Captain's Suites onboard. This is the largest cabin on the ship and also features the largest balcony. This suite has a living room, a bedroom, two bathrooms, two televisions, a wardrobe area with closets, and large picture windows with an amazing view. The large balcony has padded outdoor furniture and is wind protected by large glass windows at the front and side.
This cabin is located at the far forward end of Lido deck, directly above the ship's bridge. It did not originally exist when this ship was the Carnival Destiny. The "Captain's Suites" were added during the 2013 refurbishment when the ship was transformed in to the Carnival Sunshine.
You may be wondering if the "Captain's Suite" is where the Captain of the ship sleeps. No, the Captain has a cabin just behind the bridge on deck 8. In fact, you can look in to his cabin window from the balcony of 9115... since the balcony of 9115 sticks out past the side of the ship.
The cost of the Captain's Suite is approximately three times that of a standard balcony cabin. It was fun to experience it once, but certainly not an expense I could justify for every cruise. It could make an awful lot of sense for a family, though... because of three beds (one in its own bedroom), two bathrooms, two televisions, and a bathtub that would make washing the kids a lot easier than trying to do it in a cruise ship shower.
It is also a very quiet cabin... with no noise sources nearby. However, the air conditioning system is VERY noisy! We just turned it off except for when absolutely needed
