Does Royal Caribbean offer rooms for 5 people?

Royal Caribbean offers several staterooms with an occupancy of 5 or more guests. These staterooms are typically larger and may have additional beds or sofa beds to accommodate more guests.



Yes, Royal Caribbean offers several stateroom categories specifically designed to accommodate 5 or more guests. These include "Ultra Spacious" Ocean View and Balcony rooms, which often feature a combination of a Royal King bed, a double sofa bed, and a Pullman bed (which lowers from the ceiling). For even larger groups, the Family Interior Stateroom can sleep up to 6 people by utilizing bunk beds in a separate alcove. At the higher end, the Ultimate Family Suite and the new Ultimate Family Townhouse on Icon of the Seas are designed for multi-generational travel, featuring multi-level layouts, in-suite slides, and private cinemas. If these specialized rooms are sold out, Royal Caribbean also offers connecting staterooms, which are often a more cost-effective way to get two bathrooms and more privacy for a family of five.

Tip: Unlike hotel prices, cruise fares are listed per person, not per cabin, with rates based on two people occupying a stateroom. Cruise lines offer single travelers the opportunity to book a double cabin for themselves by charging a “single supplement,” which is basically 1½ or 2 times the list price for one person.

Family-Friendly: Designed with families in mind, these staterooms accommodate up to five people and thankfully come with an extra bathroom. Great for groups too, thanks to connecting doors. Upper deck: Consider a stateroom on the upper deck of your ship.

Adding one or more guests to your reservation may be an option provided that the room type allows for it, and the ship has not reached maximum occupancy. Please keep in mind that rates may be different from your original reservation, and change fees may apply for adding guest(s).

Aside from the main benefit of enjoying the cruise with friends and/or family a group cruise most often is priced lower (for the same cabin categories) than regular rates. In addition to the rate reduction, most cruise lines offer certain amenities to the group such as onboard spending credit, welcome parties, etc.

Even if you can't score a free cabin, group rates for cabin pricing are generally lower. When signing a group contract, you block out a number of cabins at a specified rate, which is usually the lowest available and in some cases, discounted from the price you would pay if you were booking the cabins separately.

So how much money do you need? The answer to this question varies a lot by person, their travel habits, spending preferences, length of the cruise and destination. Many people suggest $100 per day, and this has generally worked well for me in my cruising experiences, but there are a lot of variables to consider.

Cruise ship workers are not supposed to hook up with passengers, but that doesn't mean it doesn't happen. It is rare though – most crew follow the rules because they know they'll lose their job if they're caught. You won't be surprised to hear that cruise lines ban crew from having sex with passengers.
