I've been on over 25 cruises, but I still made a rookie mistake that almost ruined my family's recent sailing
"I've been on 25+ cruises, most of those with my family - my husband and two kids, who are now teens. Despite my experience, I made a mistake and booked a tiny, cramped cabin on our recent cruise. We made the best of our situation, but I know which details to check and questions to ask next time. As our family's primary vacation planner, I've found we get the most mileage out of cruises."
"Despite the initial shock, we quickly realized our 222-square-foot cabin could indeed sleep four people. Our steward told us there were two additional beds stored in the ceiling that he would pull out every evening. We asked if the two twin beds on the ground could be converted into a queen for my husband and me, and were told they could, but there would be no place to put the ladder for the upper bunks."
A family of four favors cruises for inclusive pricing and diverse onboard options. A seven-night Western Caribbean cruise booking resulted in a 222-square-foot stateroom that initially appeared to have only two twin beds. The steward revealed two additional beds stored in the ceiling that were pulled down each evening, allowing four separate sleeping places. The two ground twin beds could be converted to a queen, but converting would remove space for the ladder to the upper bunks. The steward set up and removed the bunks daily. Beds were comfortable, but the upper bunk height and ladders made movement and sitting up difficult.
