Oasis Grand Family Suite v Family balcony

[NJbeachMom]

we are a family of 5 and I'm trying to plan a memory making family vaca before my son leaves for the Army.

We've cruised before usually in two cabins, inside for my older kids... I get the aft balcony

I just priced the family suite and family balcony...the suite is twice the price.

I'm looking for any advice of RCCL cruisers..is the suite worth the extra $$$?

Thanks

I can't answer your question but........if I may make a suggestion. We cruised on the Allure in October and had two adjoining oceanview cabins. We are also a family of 5. I know it was cheaper than a suite and instead of the kids being across the hall we were next to each other with the door open (of course we shut it sometimes too). You can also have the attendant take the balcony divider out so you can connect your balconies. Plus there's the bonus of having 2 bathrooms. We made lots of great memories of our trip and hope you do too!

The suite would be awsome especially on that ship but without knowing the price difference, it's impossible to answer your question.

Grand suite is $11,600...balcony is $6600

Grand suite is $11,600...balcony is $6600

 

I would take 2 balcony cabins and save the money. Spending the extra 5k isn't going to enhance your cruising experience. Put it towards another vacation. Just my opinion.
