Creator's Key Takeaways

So, first off, standard rooms only sleep four each. So, two rooms of four.

If you're willing to go to a suite, let's talk about the suites you can sleep eight guests total in.

I absolutely would say do it just because you're going to have those amenities, you're going to have priority boarding, you're going to have reserved seating.

If you go Star Class, you're going to get all-inclusive. You're going to get free specialty dining, free drink package.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Consider two-bedroom Grand Suites or AquaTheater Suites for families of eight.
If budget is tight, book two separate rooms that may not be next door.
Contact a travel agent for help planning your next Royal Caribbean cruise.
