How to pick a room

We know you’re here for the ultimate carnival vibes at sea, but there’s more to your Ubersoca Cruise experience than just the parties and performances! To make things easy, here’s a quick guide to help you navigate the basics so you can focus on what matters most—enjoying the vibes.
 

First up: choosing your stateroom. Check out our Staterooms section to explore all the options and find the perfect fit for your journey.

TIPS FOR CHOOSING YOUR IDEAL STATEROOM

  • Size. All staterooms of the same type are approximately the same size, whether they’re on Deck 7 or 11.

  • Motion Sickness. If you’re sensitive to motion sickness, we recommend choosing a mid-ship stateroom on a lower deck for a smoother ride closer to the ship’s center of gravity.

  • Wheelchair-accessible staterooms. These modified rooms feature wider doorways, accessible bathrooms, and added maneuverability. They’re reserved for those who primarily use a wheelchair and aren’t available in our online inventory. Please call USC to book one and check availability.

  • Smoking is prohibited in staterooms. Violations will incur a $250 cleaning fee. Designated smoking areas are available on select outdoor decks and in the Casino during active gameplay.

  • Stateroom Essentials. Every room includes a TV, vanity area with stool and mirror, at least one standard US plug, a closet with drawers and hanging space, a safe, a hairdryer, a mini-fridge, and a private bathroom with a shower, sink and toilet.

  • Personal Preference. Your stateroom selection is all about personal preference! Some guests love a window or balcony for natural light, while others prefer the coziness of an interior room. It’s important to choose a room that matches your expectations.

  • Adjoining Staterooms. are available for passengers traveling in groups who want the convenience of staying close together. These rooms feature connecting doors, offering easy access between spaces while still allowing privacy when needed.

  • Multiple Guests? Many staterooms accommodate between 2-6 guests, making it a cost-effective option. Be sure to review the sleeping arrangements for the 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th guests to ensure everyone in your group is  comfortable. No matter what room you choose, all staterooms give you access to our  epic lineup of onboard events!

Accessibility

UberSoca Cruise is a fully accessible event and we are dedicated to continually improving our efforts to ensure you have access to all the event amenities. We welcome and encourage all feedback and suggestions from our patrons. Whether you have traveled around the world and back or this is your first adventure away from your hometown, we understand that UberSoca Cruise is unique and that you may have some questions! For any accessibility-related questions please contact us or check out Norwegian’s Guest Access Desk resources that are available to you.

At time of booking, please discuss your needs with the USC’s Guest Services team. Your information and requirements will be sent to Norwegian Cruise Line’s Access Desk approximately 60 days prior to sailing. If your needs require more advanced notice, USC will notify Norwegian accordingly. Approximately 4 weeks prior to sailing you will receive your Norwegian reservation number and additional information regarding how you may contact the NCL’s Access Desk directly for any additional questions you may have before embarkation.

For more information about accommodations available for guests traveling with special needs, check out our FAQ.

Norwegian Encore has accessible staterooms in Interior, Oceanview, Balcony, Club Balcony Suite, and Penthouse categories. An accessible stateroom is required to accommodate motorized scooters and non-collapsible wheelchairs. Please contact USC directly to reserve a wheelchair accessible stateroom as these rooms are not available to book online.

Accessible staterooms include a bathroom with roll in doorway and roll in shower. The shower will have a removable shower seat. Each accessible bathroom comes equipped with grab bars around the toilet and an adjustable angled mirror above the sink.

Should you choose a stateroom that has not been designated as accessible, you will need to bring a collapsible wheelchair, or if you have a motorized wheelchair or scooter, the width must not exceed 26 inches to enter the stateroom door. All scooters and wheelchairs MUST be stored in the stateroom. Due to safety and escape way requirements, they cannot be stored in the hallways, stairways, or any other public area.

As the ship has a limited number of wheelchairs available for guest use ONLY in the event of a medical emergency, if you require the use of a mobility assistive device throughout your vacation, we ask that you travel with your own, or rent one from a third party company that works with the cruise line such as Scootaround. This can be done once you receive your Norwegian reservation number 4 weeks prior to sailing.
