The bathroom had a shower with a curtain. The sink area had shelves for all our toiletries, and a make-up/shaving mirror, which I always like to see in a cruise ship cabin. The bathroom came equipped with all sorts of sample items--shower gel, shaving cream, toothpaste, and even Tylenol PM--but no hand lotion, shower cap, or hair conditioner.
At the time we booked, the cost differential on our 12-day cruise between an inside cabin and a balcony was about $900 per person, but the four of us agreed it was worth the extra cost to have a quiet, comfortable retreat and fresh ocean air.
The Carnival Liberty has 20 different price categories among the 7 different types of cabins, ranging from inside cabins to luxurious suites. Over 500 cabins are balconied such as ours was.
