The (Slightly) Smaller Balcony is one of Virgin's most-booked cabins. Cabin 11358A delivers it from a forward, port side position on Deck 11.
The Sea Terrace: (Slightly Smaller Balcony) gives you fresh-air terrace living with a smaller footprint and a partial ocean view. Thoughtfully designed for comfort, it pairs a queen bed and flexible seating with a compact terrace, marble bathroom, USB charging and complimentary Wi-Fi. Ideal for Sailors who want outdoor space and value — great for couples or solo travellers who prefer a terrace without the suite price.
About the cabin number itself: the letter at the end of every (Slightly) Smaller Balcony 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 11358A ends in A, so it’s a port-side cabin — its mirror twin 11358Z is the identical layout on starboard.
What makes 11358A specific is its placement. Forward means a little more pitch in a swell, but quieter corridors. Deck 11 sets your elevator distance to dining and the pool deck. the "A" suffix puts you on the port side (left, facing forward). Cabin 11358A also trades a clear outlook for a partially obstructed view. Prefer to compare the whole category? See every (Slightly) Smaller Balcony cabin →
Bed position can make or break a cabin. Here's exactly how it sits inside 11358A 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 |
In cabin 11358A, the foot of the bed faces forward toward the bow, so you fall asleep with the wake behind you and wake up looking out toward the ocean ahead of the ship. Because the bed sits closer to the cabin door, the terrace side has noticeably more floor clearance — useful for keeping luggage near the entry or moving around without stepping past the bed at night. The queen bed also splits into two twins at no extra charge — just request that setup before you sail.
