Oasis +5 room

[Miloomar]

When a room has this symbol  it says it can fit 5 people. This is a boardwalk balcony, does anyone know what the configuration is? Is this a twin bed, pullman and pullout couch (2+1+2)?

On Oasis and Allure where there are regular cabins that sleep 5 they have the regular King bed that can be split into two twins, a sofabed that can sleep 2 and a pullman that sleeps 1.  Best cabins around for a family of 4 with kids that don't want to share a sofabed.

I assume this is the same size cabin as the neighboring cabins and you just squeeze in a little tighter?

Exactly the same size

Good luck with that. Wouldn't put more than 2 people in those rooms. We get 2 connecting balcony neighborhood rooms always.

children are 1.5, 5, 7 ... they dont take up too much space

Is there no Ultra Spacious Family Ocean View (with the bunk beds) available for your sailing?

That +5 cabin also connects to the cabin next door. I’d try to find one without the connecting door so you’re not stressing as much about the noise of the kids traveling into the neighboring cabin.

Looks like there is a waitlist.... to pay 3x as much. Even a Grand suite would be a better deal at only 2x as much

Sometimes two connecting are priced about the same as one with 5, unless you find a KSF promo.

We have found that 2 connecting rooms are often a similar price or just slightly higher for our family of 5 and well worth the cost.  It is definitely worth looking into.  Also if you have good travel agent, see if they have any deals that they know of that may reduce the cost.

they may not take up space but you will extra luggage, clothes, possibly snacks, diapers for the baby?, etc. etc.     IMO, those cabins are way too small for a family of 5.

If the youngest will be that age at the time of sailing, some "regular" cabins that hold four could also be booked.

I've only has success adding an infant to a double occupancy cabin.  Ive been told that there has to be room for a pack n play and with the sofa bed open there isn't room.

Two bathrooms would also be a huge convenience with 2 insides.

I don’t know why people always get so worked up about sleeping 5 in a cabin. We did it in 2019 and our kids were 9, 5, and 4 at the time. We were absolutely fine and we got a fantastic deal. Yes, it is cozy with the beds me but they were easy to put back and we had no issues. As the PPer mentioned, it is 2 on the couch bed and then a drop down bunk and the king bed.

 

This upcoming cruise we have booked, it was cheaper to do 2 rooms bc of a guarantee rate.
