RARcruise Posted May 19, 2014 #1 Share Posted May 19, 2014 I have looked around for a couple hours and can't find an exact answer in one place. I have two different rooms on hold right now and trying to decide between which one to go with. We are a family of 5 and I am trying to decide between the Royal Family suite and the family oceanview stateroom. The suite is more than double the price so I would need the benefits to be worth it. My kids ages are 13, 11, and 8. Thanks for any advise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leaveitallbehind Posted May 19, 2014 #3 Share Posted May 19, 2014 (edited) To add, the differences also are: The FOV is a standard stateroom - the RFS is a suite. The FOV does not have a balcony - the RFS has a large balcony. The FOV (varies with layout) has "bunk room" with a top pullman and bottom single plus a foldout couch in a seating area that can accommodate 6 total - the RFS has two dedicated bedrooms (one master / one with two pullmans and two singles) and a fold out couch in a living room that can accommodate 8 total. The LR also has additional seating and storage. The FOV has one bathroom - the RFS has two (one with a shower - the other with a shower/tub). The FOV has one TV - the RFS has two. The RFS is quite a bit larger than the FOV - FOV 265 sg. ft. / RFS 561 sg. ft. + 246 sg. ft. balcony. They really are two different staterooms and those differences result in the trade off in price.

megr1125 Posted May 19, 2014 #4 Share Posted May 19, 2014 (edited) When I was in the RFS on Explorer, the one we were in did NOT have a TV in the small bedroom...not sure if that's changed or not. (IIRC there was one for the master, and one in the living room.....I think..) It's a lot of room, you'll have 2 bathrooms and tons of storage space...
