New to RCL, thoughts on AOS grand suite for family of 4?

[rjm11]

Hello! I am relatively new to Royal Caribbean (have sailed NCL mostly), but have done a couple short cruises on the Majesty and Navigator.

 

I am thinking of booking Adventure of the Seas in a grand suite for my family of four. I have a couple questions....

 

what are the suite perks for RCL?

 

will we be comfortable with 4 people in a grand suite? Is there a curtain separating the sleeping area from the pull out couch?

 

Are you allowed to bring wine onboard? (with or without a corking fee?)

 

What is the Adventure Beach area like? Will it work for my 7 and 5 year old?

 

I'm really excited to try something new! I've loved NCL, but it will be great to branch out, and I really like the southern caribbean itinerary on the AOS....

 

All input welcome! Thanks!

We sailed on AOS in a GS with a family of 4.

My sons were older at the time so the cabin steward brought in a roll away bed for my one son and we still had plenty of room. A 7 and 5 year old should fit just fine on the pull out sofa. Yes, there is a curtain to pull across for privacy.

Can not bring your own wine.

 

suite perks are-

Priority check-in

Personalized attention throughout the cruise with complimentary Concierge Club service on select ships

Reserved prime seating in the main theater for entertainment shows, where available

Priority tender tickets on select cruises. (Tender service is provided when smaller vessels are necessary to reach shore in locations without docking ports large enough for cruise ships.)

VIP pool deck seating, where available

Full breakfast, lunch and dinner dining room menus available for in-room dining

Private breakfast and lunch seating in specialty restaurants on our Voyager and Freedom Class ships

Mattel® board games available to order for in-room entertainment for the kids

Complimentary luggage valet service

Luxury spa bathrobes for use onboard

Complimentary pressing service on formal night

Priority departure with exclusive suite* departure lounge featuring continental breakfast
