cruisecraze96 Posted February 7, 2016 #26 Share Posted February 7, 2016 We are in a RFS for our March Allure cruise, mom wanted a suite and this way we all get the benefits which was the main selling point for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcchane1 Posted February 7, 2016 Author #27 Share Posted February 7, 2016 So now that we are booked in the RFS, help me understand the perks. (I'm so glad there all the experts here) I know there is a special check in line and also reserved poolside seating. I've also heard concierge lounge and concierge services, exactly what are there services? We are celebrating our 25th anniversary on this cruise, I'm trying to make it perfect for everyone, and I'm sure I'm overthinking everything. It's 14 months away and I'm planning like it's next month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fyruf Posted February 7, 2016 #28 Share Posted February 7, 2016 You get to go to the concierge lounge when you board until your room is ready,everyday between 4:30 and 8:00 free drinks and hor d'oeuvers in CL lounge,priority seating for shows. Room treats everyday and you can eat in your room from any restaurant,concierge for all your needs excursions ect. Two bed room nice master with up graded bathroom stuff,and the other one is like a inside cabin. Has a big kitchen area and a big balcony,all will have gold cards with all other perks loaded on them. A different type cruise you will love it I'm sure. Sent from my iPad using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AustinCruise Posted February 7, 2016 #31 Share Posted February 7, 2016 You will enjoy it. Nice room. We had 2 adults in the big bedroom. Two kids in the small bedroom. Grandma on the sofa in the living room Only cruise room we have been in where the kids got a kick out of hide and seek for more than a few minutes :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcchane1 Posted February 7, 2016 Author #33 Share Posted February 7, 2016 The alcohol in the lounge is probably not a big deal since we have already planned on beverage packages. The "kids" are party people and will get there moneys worth from the beverage package, might be good for me though, I'm getting the Royal Replenish package because I drink very little alcohol but a glass of wine would be nice maybe once a night. I do like the reserved pool side seating, we got to sit there one afternoon last cruise as my sister had some kind of a problem and one of the staff said we could sit there for the afternoon, it was nice. I didn't see any reserved seating in the theater but I wasn't looking. I do like the idea of full menu room service, if you order dinner via room service do the bring appetizer, entree and dessert all at once? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debates2 Posted March 13, 2016 #34 Share Posted March 13, 2016 The Royal suite is nice, but has only one bedroom and a sofa that folds out as a sleeper couch. You would need to request an extra roll away bed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

debates2 Posted March 13, 2016 #36 Share Posted March 13, 2016 I'm a single parent of five boys - when it was only the four oldest the Royal suite was the best choice for us. Plenty of space and the extra perks made it a delightful trip for me personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ski-Lady Posted March 13, 2016 #37 Share Posted March 13, 2016 The Royal suite is nice, but has only one bedroom and a sofa that folds out as a sleeper couch. You would need to request an extra roll away bed. The RFS has 2 bedroom and will accommodate up to 8 guests. There is a difference between the Royal Suite and the Royal Family Suite. Mcchanel1 is right. the RFS has 2 bedrooms and and 2 bathrooms. The RFS can sleep 8 (2 in the master, 4 in the second bedroom, and 2 on the sleeper couch). We have had a RFS 3 times and getting ready for another cruise in the RFS soon. All times in the RFS have been less than 5 people, once there was only 2 of us. I would book the RFS or 2 JSs or the RS any day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
