soggy1975 Posted December 13, 2016 #1 Share Posted December 13, 2016 We're considering the epic for a 7nt w med cruise from Barcelona next summer Its our 1st cruise and there are 4 of us inc 2 boys aged 11&13 We're seen the family inside rooms at a good price and was wondering what these rooms are like and how they compare to standard inside Also these rooms seen to be clustered together on floor 13 nr the bridge viewing area..whats this area like for sea sickness..it seems to be q high and q far from the middle of the boat..that is pretty much the opposite to what ive been recommended Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gymbomb Posted December 15, 2016 #3 Share Posted December 15, 2016 They are no different than any other inside that holds 4, just located closer to the kids club. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeTec Posted December 15, 2016 #4 Share Posted December 15, 2016 We were just on the epic & we stayed in 13023 & 13019. They were balcony rooms but in the same area. There were some nights the ship was rocking & i had to leave the buffet but when i went back to our room to lay down i was fine.

As someone has said already, the cabin is the same as other four berth insides I believe, it is just the location that makes them 'family'. We were on deck 13 but close to the stern & it really was a good location. Great nights sleep with only one night of a little 'rolling'. Always been in mid-ship & on decks like 7, 8 & 9 previously so had our reservations...but it was fine. Obviously it will be 'snug' with the four of you! We were three & our son is 13...but if you stagger showering & getting dressed/changed times it will work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

citizenfrank Posted December 16, 2016 #7 Share Posted December 16, 2016 Thanks thats the reassurance i needed Brilliant! Forget all the curtain, funny lay out, sink in the room etc. etc. Like us you will make it work & have the other matter of four 'large' beings in a relatively small space issues to distract you! But it will work once you develop your system of choice & after all you won't be spending a large part of the day in there ...To much fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samantha1904 Posted July 3, 2017 #8 Share Posted July 3, 2017 When we first booked there were 3 of us so we chose a family inside cabin. One person dropped out so it will just be 2 of us. Are these "family areas" noisy? Wondering if we should move to another inside cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kryssa Posted July 3, 2017 #9 Share Posted July 3, 2017 It being your first cruise, I will tell you these cabins are TIGHT with 4 people. If you can budget for it, I would try to get two connecting rooms for the 4 of you. The shower opens directly into the room, which means you're getting dressed standing behind a curtain. When the curtain is drawn, nobody can go in or out of the room. The sink is also directly in the room, so people brushing their teeth and washing hands are right in the middle of everything. There is also nowhere to sit in the room except the beds and one small stool. I just want to make sure you know what you are getting yourselves into with two teens!
