mark46 Posted November 22, 2021 #1 Share Posted November 22, 2021 Aqua staterooms seem great. Are there different sizes? Are there accessible rooms? Bedding options. In Sky suites are there bedding options? are there accessible rooms? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestLakeGirl Posted November 22, 2021 #2 Share Posted November 22, 2021 I am not sure what you are asking for. You need two beds, one a standard twin and one something larger? Is that right? I don’t believe that any of the beds are larger than a twin. A state room comes with two of them. They push the two twins together to make one larger one (approximately a queen). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJSailors Posted November 22, 2021 #4 Share Posted November 22, 2021 mark46- It seems that this may be your first cruise. Most major cruise lines have twin beds that can be put together to make a queen size bed in most of the. cabin categories. That being said, you may consider a cabin that has a sofa bed which the steward will make up before bedtime. That bed may be a bit larger than a standard twin. You may also consider booking a family cabin or a two bedroom suite. Both may offer accommodations that you are considering. The best way to check about bed size and availability would be to call Celebrity and discuss your needs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mduffy1834 Posted November 22, 2021 #5 Share Posted November 22, 2021 You could get a (probably) balcony room that has a sleep sofa. Twin beds pushed together to make large bed; sleep sofa approximately full/queen size. If you need a higher toilet, you may need an accessible room - had one once (booked a balcony guarantee and was given a huge handicap accessible room) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare chemmo Posted November 22, 2021 #6 Share Posted November 22, 2021 Sofa beds in the suite cabins we have had (CS, RS and PH) have all been queen size. The snag is when out they are lower than a standard bed so if you struggle with toilet height you may struggle to get up and down comfortably. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suite sofa beds are larger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Jim_Iain Posted November 23, 2021 #8 Share Posted November 23, 2021 (edited) I recently had a Suite Guarantee and got an Accessible Sky Suite on an M-Class- The room is larger that a normal SS. The room has 2 Singles and I believe are more narrow than a U.S Single (39x75"). When put together it measure that of a U.S. Queen Bed (60x80"). My adjustable bed at home has two Twin XL (extra Long) and the two bed together are a King Bed (76x80). that can either be configured as a Queen or two singles. The beds have curved corners at the base so is a bit shorter on the edges. While the room does have a higher toilet the shower can be a bit of a challenge as there is no curb and water goes everywhere. We had to roll up towels and form a shower dike Felt sorry for the extra work for our Stateroom Attendant.

I remember getting water all over the floor in the new AQ cabins on deck 11 on M class ships, even though they had shower doors and a raised lip. Problem was the shower doors did not close completely. I note that the new Explora ships have an ingenious design to deal with that--a drain system built into the floor all around the shower like the drain system we have on our pool deck. I don't have a handicapped cabin on that ship, but it seems like a good solution to the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They often recommend a water dam. It blocks water and a wheelchair can just roll over it. As opposed to our towel dam Edited November 25, 2021 by Jim_Iain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
