Balcony
Balcony staterooms onboard Carnival Spirit are designed for maximum comfort with excellent views and each one includes a private balcony.

Balcony staterooms are perfect for travelers who wish to spend a decent amount of time relaxing in privacy. Balconies bring you closer to the passing scenery and wildlife, providing an up close and personal view.
They also tend to be closer to public areas, which means you won’t need to go far to change or drop something to your room.

Interior
Interior staterooms are the most affordable accommodations onboard Carnival Spirit. If you’re a traveler who wants to have more spending money for excursions, cocktails, spa treatments, or specialty dining, then an Interior stateroom is a fabulous option.
It is usually the least expensive fare. Interior staterooms do not have a window, so it’s a great choice for those who are looking for a great night’s sleep (this is an especially good choice for quickly overcoming jet lag if you’re traveling in a different time zone). Depending on where your Interior stateroom is located, you’ll generally feel less movement (great for preventing seasickness). Finally, with the least amount of living space, you’ll feel more motivated to spend as much time as you can exploring the ship and getting the most valuable experience for your money.
Interior with Window (Obstructed View) staterooms aboard Carnival Spirit have a total inside space of 185 sq. ft. and feature a window with an obstructed view.
