Canmilitarywife Posted August 25, 2019 #1 Share Posted August 25, 2019 I’m trying to plan a cruise for my family, 5 adults. (2 couples and my Mom) What is the best option cabins with joining doors or would a suite be best? Never stayed in a suite before only cabins. Can you share your experience with both? Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance How much privacy are you looking for? what ship?, why not just 2 cabins near each other? availability could also be an issure, how soon you plan to cruise?

Thanks in advance Are the two couples related to each other? To Mom? If yes, look at the Royal Family Suite. Oops. I think that it's now called Two Bedroom Grand Suite. $$$$$ Or get two side by side Junior Suites, with or without connecting door. Which ship? They are many variations. On Voyager and Freedom class ships there are some configurations that are not available on other ships. And vice versa. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canmilitarywife Posted August 25, 2019 Author #5 Share Posted August 25, 2019 It’s myself, my husband, my brother in-law, sister in-law and my Mom. We are thinking Mediterranean cruise in 2021. As we all have cruises next year already planned. So it would be whatever boat is doing that cruise. I’m already on the Allure next sept for a Western Mediterranean cruise.

Follow the 21-22 deployment thread - that will list ships doing those routes, maybe late this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George C Posted August 25, 2019 #7 Share Posted August 25, 2019 I love suites , and on allure you do have Costal Kitchen dinning room. But in Europe you spend so much time on shore excursions might not pay . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jptoz Posted August 25, 2019 #8 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Oasis or Quantum Class get a suite. All the rest wouldn't bother. The suite benefits aren't that good on the older ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beautiful ship and perfect for the Med itineraries. Get three side by side balcony cabins. The balcony dividers can be opened, with few exceptions. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRF Posted August 26, 2019 #10 Share Posted August 26, 2019 We did an aft RFS, now 2 bedroom Grand Suite on Grandeur. LOTS of room. One large bedroom with bathroom attached (with tub/shower). A smaller interior cabin with bath (shower only) in the hallway. A large lounge area with at least one sofa bed. HUGE balcony. We ended up switching to it after final payment, and it was cheaper (no refunds) than our one JR suite and one balcony originally booked. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
