disneylover89 Posted December 4, 2008 #1 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Where can I find the square footage of balcony and suite cabins on the Gem? Are all balcony rooms the same or do different categories have different square footage? Also. If you are a family of 4, can the room be set up as 1 queen and 2 bunks? I hated when we cruised on the Crown and my husband and I slept in separate bunks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnql Posted December 4, 2008 #2 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Try this link. (Thanks to whoever posted this site a few weeks ago.) http://cruises.continental.com/c/cruiseline.asp?lineid=34 After going to the link, click on your specific ship, then click on the tab for staterooms. You'll get a list of all the stateroom categories with descriptions, including square footage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hated when we cruised on the Crown and my husband and I slept in separate bunks. I could be wrong (wouldn't be the first time) but I don't think any of the balcony rooms allow 4 people, max 3. Only inside and oceanview cabins allow up to 4. (I'm not including suites in this discussion.) Somebody, correct me if I'm wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greymeowsr Posted December 4, 2008 #4 Share Posted December 4, 2008 You could get adjoining cabins with a door between. You'd have to officially put one adult in each room, but then when you actually move in, put the children next door and you and hubby in the queen. That will give you some privacy too.

Thomas I have always thought this was a great idea for families if they can afford to do it. One more cost effective way is to have a balcony room and an inside stateroom just across the hallway. That way you all get to enjoy a balcony (especially the adults at night) and you will have a bathroom for mom and dad and one for the kiddo's. And they are just across the hall from you.

disneylover89 Posted December 4, 2008 Author #6 Share Posted December 4, 2008 I didn't realize there were no balcony cabins for a family of 4. IMO that is pretty ridiculous. I will have to think about a mini-suite then. Does anybody know how the beds would set up for a family of 4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SOOKIENY Posted December 5, 2008 #7 Share Posted December 5, 2008 We had an Aft mini on the Pearl. There is a pull out couch that will sleep 2 small children. I would not suggest two on that if the kids are over 10 or very tiny. It is pretty tight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Almagetty Posted December 5, 2008 #8 Share Posted December 5, 2008 The Gem has plenty of balconies that will accommodate 4 passengers. Just go to NCL's website and pull up the deck plans for the Gem. Any cabin with an "+" on it is a quad. I quickly looked on decks 8 and 9 and found quite a few. (For example cabins 9110, 9112, 9114, 9116 and 9118 are all quads, that is just the first few that jumped out at me). I believe that the balcony quads have two beds that can be set up as a queen sized bed, one fold out chair that becomes a single and then one upper bunk. The mini-suites have the two beds that turn into a queen, a one fold out couch that becomes a double. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
