I’d say the Loeb translation is hands down the best literal “crib” translation. Just make sure you get the new version that was revised in the 90’s and not the original one, which is full of archaizing thees and thous and suchlike. Another prose translation I particularly recommend is Walter Shewring’s. I’ve seen many English translations of the Odyssey and I think this one best conveys in good English what the Greek “really says”, without following the Greek idiom too literally. Many especially poetic translations might be very nice to read, but not all are much help for the Greek; many of them are not very exact and some even give the impression that the translator doesn’t know Greek very well. Looking at Shewring’s choices at difficult passages, it’s obvious that he knew very well not only Greek but also Homeric scholarship. So my tip is to get the Loeb translation for help with the Greek syntax and Shewring to help understand the larger context. Generally I like to have two different translations for texts that are difficult for me; that helps me to see the difficult bits from two different angles. Hylander is probably right about interlinears: avoid.
I agree about Cunliffe, it’s an absolute must. Mine has fallen into pieces long ago due to heavy use, but it’s also possible to access it online: http://stephanus.tlg.uci.edu/cunliffe/#eid=1&context=lsj. Authenrieth’s lexicon isn’t as good but it’s included (along with LSJ and others) if you download an iPhone app called Logeion.
If you happen to know German, Ameis, Hentze & Cauer’s very old but excellent commentaries, originally written for 19th century schoolboys, are still very helpful. Otherwise I think Hylander is right to recommend Stanford. There’s a three volume Oxford commentary on the whole Odyssey and several Cambridge “Green and Yellow” commentaries on individual books, but those are probably too advanced for you, depending on your level.
There’s a commented Greek text of the first two books of the Odyssey by Peter Jones aimed especially at students coming to Homer for the first time. I haven’t used it myself, but I’ve found other texts written by Jones helpful. https://www.amazon.com/Odyssey-2-Set-Peter-Jones/dp/0856684708/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1493462179&sr=8-7&keywords=odyssey+peter+jones
