wrp96 Posted February 7, 2008 #2 Share Posted February 7, 2008 The family cabins cannot be booked over the internet because they require a minimum of 5 people to book. Give me a moment and I have a list of the family cabins and the ships they are on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted February 7, 2008 #3 Share Posted February 7, 2008 You may want to consider 2 cabins with connecting doors! More privacy for mom and dad, 2 baths, and more space! It's sometimes less expensive, too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have three kids (unless they are all REALLY young), go on a Freedom class ship. You would have your choice of what you are calling "family cabins", or you could book connecting cabins. There is even a secret balcony-inside pair on Deck 9. sssshhhhhhhhh 9696-9701 or 9396-9401. Two cabins, two bathrooms, two televisions, two sofas, two vanities, two sets of drawers, two closets, door that opens and closes betwen the cabins........................... :) There are also balcony-oceanview connecting pairs all the way forward on Deck 9.

wrp96 Posted February 7, 2008 #5 Share Posted February 7, 2008 RCCL has several options for family rooms that are specifically designed to hold 5 (or more people). They require a minimum of 5 people to book and cannot be booked online. You have to call RCCL or book with a travel agent in order to book more than 4 people in a room. Your options for 5 people (or more) on RCCL ships: Grand Suites and Owners Suites - RCCL will allow you to put a 5th person in these suites. They bring in a rollaway bed for the 5th person. Family Inside Stateroom - requires a minimum of 5 people to book, holds max 6 people. All of our Family Staterooms can accommodate up to six people, with two twin beds, sofa and/or Pullman beds. Other amenities include a minibar and sitting area. Found on Freedom class and Enchantment of the Seas Family Promenade Stateroom - requires a minimum of 5 people to book, holds max 6 people. All of our Family Staterooms can accommodate up to six people, with two twin beds, sofa and/or Pullman beds. Other amenities include a minibar and sitting area. Found on Freedom class only Family Oceanview Stateroom - requires a minimum of 5 people to book, holds max 6 people. All of our Family Ocean View Staterooms can accommodate up to six people, with two twin beds, sofa and/or Pullman beds. Other amenities include a minibar (except on Vision of the Seas) and sitting area. Radiance class, Voyager class, Freedom class, Enchantment of the Seas, Rhapsody of the Seas, and Vision of the Seas Royal Family Suite - requires a minumum of 5 people to book, holds a max of 8 people. Has 2 bedrooms AND 2 bathrooms, plus because it is a suite you get concierge lounge access (on ships that have a concierge lounge). On most ships, our Royal Family Suite has enough space to accommodate eight people, with two bedrooms including four twin beds, two Pullman beds and a double sofa bed. All have a separate living area, two bathrooms, vanity area and refrigerator, among their amenities. Vision class, Radiance class, Voyager class, Freedom Class, Majesty of the Seas, and Monarch of the Seas Presidential Family Suite - requires a minimum of 8 people to book, holds a max of 14 people. The Presidential Family Suite has four bathrooms, a spacious living area with entertainment center and flat screen TV. The private balcony includes a whirlpool, wet bar, lounge chairs and an al fresco dining area that seats fourteen. Freedom class only Remember to price out connecting staterooms versus the family staterooms, because many times two connecting staterooms are less expensive than the family staterooms. On RCCL's Voyager class and Freedom class, they have a couple of inside cabins that have a connecting door with a balcony stateroom (they also have oceanview cabins with a connecting door to a balcony stateroom). So that might be an option as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
