Happy you enjoyed your first cruise and hope there are many more great ones in your future. It will be more pricey, but if you sail with that many people in one cabin again, you may want to consider booking a Grand Suite. It will give you more room and put you one deck closer to the dinning rooms. We throughly enjoyed our GS on the Elation in 2017.

Just about any cabin would be tight for four people.
