Recommendations for young family

[Thirsk-cruiser]

I have 6 and 4 yr old girls and we've done a couple of royal Caribbean cruises sharing a cabin with bunks. We've liked this line mainly due to the combination of the way the kids are accepted, especially the kids club, plus the dining for my wife

 

This year though I can't find a suitable cruise on this line. We're uk based and looking at both med and caribbean. so my question would be this;

 

Can anyone please recommend another cruise line with similar characteristics?

 

Thanks

I've been pleased with my Carnival cruises.

 

They have very good kid's clubs.

Carnival, NCL, Hal and Celebrity are really more similar than different....even tho the prices may not reflect that!

 

With young kids, Carnival will have lots for the tots!

Hi,

we have salied NCL, RCL, and HAL with the kids and all were very similar in what they offered for the kids club. We have always sailed when there isn't very many kids on board. The staff have all been great and our kids have liked all of the clubs. They actually liked the HAL one the best, but I can't say whether it was because of the kids they met or the program itself. The port of Half Moon Cay on HAL (Caribbean ) was amazing for the kids too.

Don't forget Disney! We sailed with DCL in the Med last summer and had a great time. IMO, DCL and RCCL give a similar bang for the buck. Celebrity has better itineraries and newer ships though.

Ok- thanks all for your suggestions. Gives me something to look into.
