The Sea Terrace is one of Virgin's most-booked cabins. Cabin 9174A delivers it from a midship, port side position on Deck 9.
Virgin's most popular cabin delivers the sweet spot of space, style, and those addictive ocean breezes. The Sea Terrace pairs a private outdoor terrace with bright, thoughtfully designed interiors — perfect for Sailors who want fresh-air mornings and cozy evenings. Enjoy a comfortable queen bed (or convertible twin layout), lounge-ready seating, a marble bath with premium fixtures, USB charging and complimentary Wi-Fi. Ideal for guests who want a true indoor/outdoor cabin experience without upgrading to a suite.
About the cabin number itself: the letter at the end of every 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 9174A ends in A, so it’s a port-side cabin — its mirror twin 9174Z is the identical layout on starboard.
What makes 9174A specific is its placement. Midship is the steadiest stretch of the ship — the smart pick if motion matters to you. Deck 9 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 Sea Terrace cabin →
Bed position can make or break a cabin. Here's exactly how it sits inside 9174A 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 9174A'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 terrace, so most of the open walking room falls on the cabin-door 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.
