Rare aussielozzie18 Posted August 22, 2014 #1 Share Posted August 22, 2014 Sorry if this has been asked before but what the best cabin options for parents travelling with a 16 year old. Hubby does not want us all to share a single room. I would assume a 16 year is not permitted to be in his own cabin. Are connecting cabins an option? Should we look at suites with separate bedrooms? If so, what would be the best suite option? Would prefer a mid-ship location. Looking to cruise to NZ or Sth Pacific. Preference would be Royal Carribbean or possibly Celebrity.

goodycruising Posted August 22, 2014 #2 Share Posted August 22, 2014 I thought I had seen it said that a cabin next door or across the hall could be booked for children? Also you can book a cabin each in the adult names and the 16 year old with one of you, and then sleep where it suits. Suites are so expensive, and it would be more likely that a balcony cabin would not interest a 16 year old that will be hanging with others more than being in the cabin. Others will have better ideas, I am not one with kids so I am only going on what I have read. I think a bit of personal space goes a long way. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancinman66 Posted August 22, 2014 #3 Share Posted August 22, 2014 You can get a family suite as cheaper suite option Or connecting cabins would be best go Some lines don't mind the 16 year old in cabin alone if you guys are next door Others you would have to register one of you with Jim then get another key so you both are in a cabin together Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Usually a bit more than an Owners - but are such a fantastic suite.) If you can afford it they are wonderful. Connecting balconies are great. But balcony and inside opposite is also a great set up.

The_Big_M Posted August 22, 2014 #5 Share Posted August 22, 2014 As above, suites and connecting cabins are options. Although 'connecting' they don't actually have to be beside each other, so people wanting that arrangement sometimes buy an oceanview or balcony, paired with an inside.

If you don't mind going cheap and cheerful - inside - bargain basement price - book two cabins - side by side - guys booked in one - gal booked in the other - then do the swap. Only my suggestion of course - I feel that under the circumstances - that's what I would do. The cruise is more important than the sleeping arrangements. IMHO I love it because we are all different :p :D Edited August 22, 2014 by dizzy1948 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tara Jane Posted August 22, 2014 #7 Share Posted August 22, 2014 For a single cabin you will be paying the same or very close to what you are paying for the double room. Is your son responsible enough to take a mate along with you. Would be company for him as long as it doesn't mean worries for you by taking his mate. I still remember how much fun it was when I was allowed to take a friend along with me on holidays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
