Vista Suite 8273 on the Carnival Pride is on the 8th deck (Panorama) and located on the Starboard side (right). It is 1 of 4 that has a maximum occupancy of 3 people. All other Vista Suites have a maximum occupancy of 2.
When you enter Vista Suite 8273, you immediately notice that you have an actual foyer which leads to your living room. There's a granite counter top with a mirror wall. A glass shelf holds water, wine, and champagne glasses.

The living room has a couch (which is the bed for a 3rd person), granite topped adjustable table, and a chair. There's also a small desk with an ottoman and a TV above that. The mini fridge is found in the cabinet below.

Unlike regular staterooms that come with showers, Vista Suites have a jetted tub!

The bedroom has a king (or two twin beds), a chair, and the second TV with a cabinet housing the room safe below and 4 large drawers. There's a granite topped ledge above the bed which runs the length of the room. There's also a second set of light switches that control the entire suite right above the bed (super convenient!).

The balcony is HUGE! You get a corner wrap around balcony with 2 lounge chairs and 3 standard chairs with tables.

Your balcony is mostly exposed so if it rains, it will get wet. The people standing above at the aft railing of Serenity (adults only area of the ship) will be able to see you if you're standing from about mid-width of your balcony up to your railing.

If you're the type of cruiser who also enjoys some private downtime in your room, I absolutely recommend spending some extra money to get a Vista Suite!
Cruise Hack: The walls are magnetic!
Purchase some magnetic hooks and put them on the walls to hold your hats, lanyards with your cruise card, and other small items to minimize clutter and keep things organized!
Differences between Vista Suites on various decks:
Deck 5 has the smallest room with Deck 6 being the 2nd smallest room/layout.
Deck 4 has the largest layout and a completely private (covered) balcony.
The balconies get less wide with less privacy as you go up each level. On Deck 8, people standing at the railing at Serenity can look straight down onto your balcony.
Deck 7 and 8 Vista Suites are pretty equal and have a maximum capacity of 3 guests.
