Editorial Summary

Josh and Rachel provide a detailed tour of two different suite options on Royal Caribbean's Freedom of the Seas following a four night cruise to the Bahamas. The creators demonstrate how they used the Royal Up program to upgrade from a standard balcony room to a Grand Suite by bidding 200 dollars per person. They highlight the features of the Grand Suite including a bar area, Lavazza coffee, ample drawer space, a large closet, and a spacious bathroom with a double vanity and a deep tub. The tour also covers the living area with a pull out couch and the large balcony. To provide a comparison, the creators show a Junior Suite occupied by friends who upgraded for 100 dollars per person. This second room features a single sink, a full size tub, and an extended balcony located at the end of the ship. The creators conclude by noting that while both rooms offer significant upgrades in storage and space compared to standard balcony rooms, the Grand Suite offers more overall room and amenities.

Creator's Key Takeaways

we just got back from our four night bahamas and coco cave cruise on royal caribbean's freedom of the seas

we actually bid 200 per person to get this and we were originally in a balcony

the bathroom this bathroom is larger than our hotel room bathroom in miami so we'll take this

overall it's a pretty dang good room i would i would definitely do the 200 again or 200 per person again if allowed
