How to Get a Good Night’s Sleep

With so much happening on board, rest is important. Here are some key tips:

  • Check Your Cabin Location: Use our Cabin Lookup Tool to find out if your cabin is in a noisy area. Some cabins near nightclubs or public spaces may be noisier, which can disrupt light sleepers. As long as you aren’t on an upgraded cabin or lock it in rate you are able to request a change pre-sail either via your First Mate or Sailor Services.
  • Provide Feedback: If you find your cabin particularly restful, let others know by leaving a comment through our tool.
  • Mattress Comfort: Beds in standard cabins are a combination of a sofa bed and a regular bed. While convenient, the mattress may feel firmer than some are used to. You can request a mattress topper from your cabin host to add extra comfort.
  • Flexible Setup: During the day, you can convert your bed into a sofa using the in-room tablet.
