Nowhere to Hide: I Stayed in The Weirdest Cruise Ship Cabin

I’ve just disembarked a cruise where I stayed in a cabin that had a feature I never knew existed onboard cruise ships. It certainly was a weird one and I spent most of the week trying to work out why the cruise line made this decision.
Normally when you look at cruise ship cabins they are pretty similar across all the cruise lines and all the ships, they’re usually made in the same factories and theres not really all that much variety that can happen in a space that usually around 9 foot wide. They will change the funishings of course but they still have to fit in a bathroom, a bed and some storage and that’s usually most of the space.
The ship that I booked this cruise on was the Costa Smeralda which is a relatively new cruise ship built in 2019. I decided to treat myself and booked a balcony cabin and I’m glad I did because thats where I found the bizarre feature. The description for the cabin said ‘Private Bathroom’ but that wasn’t exactly the case.
I booked what is called a guaranteed balcony cabin which meant that I didn’t pick the specific location of the cabin. Usually this means that you get the left over cabins that others didn’t pick but it is cheaper and I’ve never regretted the choice to do that before. I’ve had cabins right at the back of the ship, right at the front, underneath nightclubs, you name it. On this cruise though I was surprised by my cabin location.

A glass wall to a shower/bathroom in a hotel room is a feature in many hotels now, especially in Las Vegas. It allows for natural light in an inside bathroom where there are no windows. It also allows for a "show" if desired.

It’s a weird “feature”. I’ve seen it in hotels, albeit infrequently. For a time, it was de riguer in W brand hotels, for instance. Around the world, I’ve seen it most frequently in Germany and Austria, where it’s most typically a window like in your cabin, but occasionally the entire shower (sides and entrance) is in the room itself, versus the WC. And, no, these haven’t been in hotels marketing themselves as “adult”. 😅

I took a Rhine river cruise last year and spent a few days in Amsterdam before getting on the ship. The hotel I was staying in had a very similar setup for the bathrooms as well, I thought it was very strange as an American but chocked it up to just being a quirky design choice in the recently renovated hotel and possibly a European design thing. (Never seen it before on other Europe trips) But now seeing you see this and think it's strange just cemented the idea that somewhere someone has a very strange idea on what a normal bathroom should look like.

I go to a resort in Mexico where you can open up French doors between the bathroom and the bedroom. You can relax in the bath while enjoying the view out the window. And I have also stayed at resorts in Malta and in Florida where there was a big bathtub right in the bedroom. I think complete privacy while bathing is not such a big deal in many cultures.

Some newer hotel (on land!) designs have clear walls for the shower area, to make the room feel more spacious, or for some rooms I stayed in, because they thought it gave the design a "modern" appeal. The most fancy/risky one I've personally experienced is the Hyatt in Tokyo, where the full bathroom area (toilet and shower) were completely covered by glass walls, BUT, the minute you stepped in the bathroom space, and sensed a human being (I think that was the trigger), the walls automatically fogged up. Good thing I was by myself in the room, but at least the automatic fogging never failed!

I'm going with they had in the plans access to the shower from the cabin, which would be nice as ship bathrooms can be a bit tight for 2+, and at the last minute realized the carpets would be constantly wet and create issues. Thus they simply threw the glass into this opening as it was the cheapest fix.

LOL, you’re adorable. It is indeed common now in modern hotel bathrooms; I first noticed it over a decade ago in Miami, and more recently in Vegas.

You were lucky-I’ve never seen them provide a curtain 😂. It is so cute that you found this remarkable enough to discuss when you were traveling with your partner! I think it’s only a problem if you’re traveling with a non romantic partner. But agree that it’s an unnecessary feature.

The curtain could be useful if you’re travelling with children who are old enough to shower independently but might perhaps shout for help occasionally.

Why in the world would they do that with the bathroom? Ive seen virgin voyages does the same thing in some cabins but there is no curtain. Id be worried if I had kids in the room and they thought it was funny to pull the curtain open.

Its a really common feature in Asia 4/5-star hotels. Often the wc is in a separate glass cubicle too. I don't' see the problem as it had privacy glass. The only weird thing is the curtain - never seen that though sometimes you get a blind which is usable from inside the bathroom. I suspect it was a late addition because some people complained

I did think that but in this case the ship is pretty new, so I don’t think so. Thanks for watching 😀👏🏼

That bathroom "window" is fairly common in Eastern and Southeastern Asia... maybe the ship architect was from there?

„Why would they do this?“ Well, you can have a daylight bathroom/shower or can be nice watching your better half showering :).

There might be a space advantage of having a window between the bathroom and the cabin. Even if the walls are thin, a window is typically even thinner. ITs also better acoustically, its easy to keep clean and of cause also water tight. Having it next to the shower kind of make sense of that perspective. Gives the shower 3 or 4 cm more space.

Emma : it was so you could watch the tv whilst in the shower. They are common in the better European (non-uk) hotels. TV likely on a swivel and speaker somewhere in bathroom if they had bothered.

Hi, just one question, how was the temperature control in the cabin?. Was it easy to use and effective?. We've been on a few cruises and found the A/C not up to scratch when it's really hot outside.

Hey Emma, This window in the shower thing is very common in hotels in Asia. We ran into this in Thailand in November. There was a blind you could lower but it was on the bathroom side, much better I think. It did bring natural light into the bathroom but I suspect the window is for more shall we say romantic reasons for couples. Someone did suggest that if you're a man and you bring a girl back to your room, you can keep an eye on her while you use the facilities to make sure she isn't going through your stuff. That said, I just wanted to let you know that I'm finally going on my first cruise on Friday and I'll be able to finally use all the great info you have shared on your channel. I'm Alaska bound!

Many hotels on my Asian travels have had glass walled bathrooms. Some with frosted glass some with blinds to cover the glass, Often the toilet is secluded by a second partition and door. I am not a fan, but I dont let it spoil my stay.

Cool to give the person taking a shower the option to look out at the sea while showering. To have the curtains on the other side however leaving the person showering completely vulnerable to an uncomfortable prank is very odd. 🙈🚿

We really enjoy your channel. The shower is a really strange idea. Do you feel any difference in weather or how ship handles transpacific or transatlantic crossings? Can you tell when you are crossing the equator? Have you ever crossed the Drake Passage?

I stayed in a hotel in Minneapolis that had a shower like that. But the glass was very frosted and for the most part you could only see a form in the shower. I think it's meant to be for a couple on a romantic adventure.

So some hotel rooms have this also when they have a view. Basically it’s so that you can always be able to see the view outside your window. (I’ve only seen it in Utah, Snowbird resort and in Zion National Park myself but that’s the purpose of having a window in the bath/shower.)

I actually encountered this on the one cruise I was actually on. It was Le Soleal from Ponant and the shower was smack dab in the same spot as this ship, with the same frosted windows and the same curtain. It was bizarre and weird. Also it had the toilet behind a separate room/door.
