Creator's Key Takeaways

According to Royal Caribbean's rules, if the parents are directly across the hall or directly next door to the kids, then they can book two separate rooms and have a room for the parents and a room for the kids.

A lot of people will look for balcony rooms for the parents and then put their kids across the hall in an interior room with no windows, no balcony, no way out, um, just to keep them close and keep them safe.

If we're talking teens, pre-teens and up, then sure, put them across the hall or next door. But if you're talking little ones, I definitely would not put them uh very far away from you.

But that according to Royal Caribbean is acceptable um to book your kids in a separate room with you.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book a balcony room for parents and an interior room across the hall for kids to save money and keep them close.
Consider the age of your children when deciding room proximity; little ones should not be far away.
If kids are in a room farther away, someone 21 or older must be booked in that room with them.
