I'm having trouble deciding between a Signature Suite on Deck 16 (16607) and a Penthouse Suite on Deck 17 (17627) on the new Sun. I thought I was booking well ahead, but even though we're about a year out from June 22, 2024, this ship seems fully booked for Penthouse Suites. We already had the signature suite booked for a few weeks, but there's a 3rd guest free sale going on right now, and when I looked today, the Penthouse Suite is actually cheaper than the Signature we already have booked. I snagged the only penthouse that was left; however, it's not ideal as it's under the Sanctuary. We're a family of 3 (2 adults and a 14-year-old), so we might need the extra space the larger room affords. We cruised on the Enchanted this year in a mid-aft penthouse suite on the Rivera Deck and loved being across the hall from the concierge lounge. We'd have a similar setup for the Signature Suite on Deck 16, but a much smaller room. I don't know if I can give up the extra space. Any thoughts on what the better choice might be? Can I ask to be switched after the final payment date if any other Penthouse Suites are released (on deck 15), or do they reprice at the current rates? Thoughts? Thanks!

Hi all, My 12 year old son and I will be sailing on the Reflection in March 2023 to the Caribbean, unfortunately my husband can't join us this time. My son has some sensory issues and hates loud super crowded places (he can function, just uncomfortable) and I was drawn to Celebrity because it seems more relaxed and less noisy than the NCL cruise we were also considering on the Joy--I saw some videos of the Joy pool deck which was extremely crowded. The Retreat was much less expensive than the Haven for our cruise dates as well. Does anyone have experience with the kids club on the Reflection for older kiddos? He'd be happy with a book, shirley temple, and his Nintendo Switch but I'd love for there to at least be a few kids his age. On our land based Turks and Caicos trip last year he was content to lounge around and play card games with me. Fully understand Celebrity doesn't cater specifically to kids or families which is actually great for us! 🙂 Thanks.

I'm booked in July, I might make a backup plan since I can only travel that week.
