The Central Sea Terrace is one of Virgin's most-booked cabins. Cabin 12182A delivers it from a midship, port side position on Deck 12.
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 12182A ends in A, so it’s a port-side cabin — its mirror twin 12182Z is the identical layout on starboard.
What makes 12182A specific is its placement. Midship is the steadiest stretch of the ship — the smart pick if motion matters to you. Deck 12 sets your elevator distance to dining and the pool deck. the "A" suffix puts you on the port side (left, facing forward). One cabin-specific detail: it keeps the midship elevators just around the corner. Prefer to compare the whole category? See every Central Sea Terrace cabin →
Bed position can make or break a cabin. Here's exactly how it sits inside 12182A 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 |
Cabin 12182A's bed runs aft-to-forward, feet toward the bow — you open your eyes facing out toward the ocean ahead of the ship. The bed is set toward the cabin door, so most of the open walking room falls on the terrace side — handy for dressing, storing bags, or slipping past without waking a sleeping partner. The 1 Queen layout converts to 2 Twins at no extra cost — ask for the configuration when you book.
