The Central Sea Terrace is one of Virgin's most-booked cabins. Cabin 11186Z delivers it from a midship, starboard side position on Deck 11.
Midship stability meets oceanfront living in these thoughtfully positioned cabins. You'll find yourself perfectly centered between dining venues and entertainment decks, making every ship experience just an elevator ride away. The terrace catches both sunrise and sunset beautifully, while the cabin's adaptive lighting system shifts from energizing daylight to intimate evening ambiance. Smart storage solutions keep your space uncluttered and zen.
About the cabin number itself: the letter at the end of every Central Sea Terrace tells you which side of the ship you're on. A-suffixed cabins sit on the port side (left, facing forward); Z-suffixed cabins sit on the starboard side (right). Cabin 11186Z ends in Z, so it’s a starboard-side cabin — its mirror twin 11186A is the identical layout on port.
What makes 11186Z specific is its placement. Midship is the steadiest stretch of the ship — the smart pick if motion matters to you. Deck 11 sets your elevator distance to dining and the pool deck. the "Z" suffix puts you on the starboard side (right, facing forward). It keeps the midship elevators just around the corner, too.

Bed position can make or break a cabin. Here's exactly how it sits inside 11186Z and what's on either side of you when you sleep.
| Bed configuration | Sleeps | Convertible |
|---|---|---|
| 1 Queen (2 Twins) | 2 | Yes — at no extra charge |
Lie down in cabin 11186Z and your feet point toward the stern, so you drift off and wake up oriented back over the ship's wake. With cabin 11186Z's bed closer to the cabin door, the terrace side carries the bulk of the floor space, leaving room for luggage and an easier climb in and out on that edge. Prefer twins? The bed separates into two at no charge, as long as you request it ahead of your voyage.

The Central Sea Terrace is a study in space — every square foot earns its place. Here's what's where.

The Central Sea Terrace is an upgraded mid-ship balcony category with extra interior space. On every ship in the fleet, 11186Z sits on Deck 11, midship and on the starboard side — within steps of the midship elevators. Here’s where Cabin 11186Z sits on the Deck 11 plan.
