    I'm sure it will be listed at $150 with 10% off when it opens, then it'll be $200 and higher with 15% off a few months after. Like Hideaway, when it first opened was $30, now you're lucky to find it below $55.
    Remember with all things RCL ignore the % off.

    With so much investment in land-based attractions, when will RCL change their loyalty program to reward the amount cruisers spend rather than days at sea? Airlines have already moved in this direction.

    We rarely visit Nassau since we cruise 7-nights or more. I will definitely try it. Im a lighthouse fan, I'd love to have a chance to get closer to the lighthouse. I wish Nassau had allowed RC to buy that piece of land too, I bet RC would have restored it.

  • @boganpainter1638
    @boganpainter1638 День тому +1

    Looking at what Royal charges for CoCo Beach Club or Hideaway Beach Club and considering those don’t include drinks or require transportation, and looking at what they charge for other Nassau excursions, I don’t see it being less than $150 per adult. Depending on the capacity and depending on how many and how big Royal/Celebrity ships are in Nassau that day, I will not be surprised if it is in the $250-$300 range per adult on busy days.

    I think this could also be used to help sell the Deluxe Beverage package if they tie in some discount for the beach club access. IE Deluxe Beverage also includes 50% off on beach club access to Royal owned and operated beach clubs.

  • @davidf5641
    @davidf5641 День тому +1

    Love the paradise island build in Nassau. Wish they had a separate alcohol band purchase as I'm sure this adds $40-80 per pass. Are we talking $129-149 per person? Thanks Matt for this great info!

  • @Tony_Z__
    @Tony_Z__ День тому

    Looking forward to this and I don't think it's so much that Nassau sucks, but rather it's so played out. After going there more than 2-3 times, there's not much to do so this definitely adds something of value that would make people want to get off the ship. Frankly I think Cozumel is approaching the same thing hence why I think they are building a beach club there too...

  • @andyl9920
    @andyl9920 День тому

    I actually love the new construction/renovation in Nassau. This paradise beach sounds exciting but i want to tour nassau again when i go, the last time i was rushed because we had elderly folks with us, so didnt get to enjoy it too much. $125-150 aint bad with alcohol included. If it will be around that range. Anything more then $150 would not be worth it. RC should include alcohol at the beach club in cococay as well!

  • @therealbobafett

    If you already have the deluxe beverage package, they should give you a discount here. Doesn’t really make sense for them to charge you twice for all inclusive drinks

  • @jimtimkey862
    @jimtimkey862 День тому

    I’ll have to wait and see what the price comes out to but when we’ve done private beach passes at other locations we have spent around $50 per person for the beach and facilities, no food, no drinks. Plus transportation to and from the beach.
    When we go to Bermuda, we have to get transportation and pay for chairs and umbrellas on the “free” beach at Horseshoe Bay. I would say that it is about $60 per couple, again without food or drinks.
    Regardless of the price, I can see us going there the first time to get the experience.
    Finally, yes, Nassau sucks! Haven’t been off the ship in the last 5 cruises

    It would be nice to have a no alcohol price as well. All inclusive pricing always punishes those who are more interested in activities and less food and drink. We pay for what we don’t use! Maybe wrist bands for the two pricing makes it easy to track?

  • @sludog
    @sludog День тому

    My guess is $149 adult and $99 under 21 depending on the food quality, quantitiy and options. If it’s specialty type dining like steak and lobster like Cocoa Beach club then more money for sure.

    @RobertDulo-ee9up День тому

    Depending on the cost, I may or may not take part. If I get an offer from Casino Royale, I will definitely try. Otherwise I will stay on the boat. I am surprised that it would be drinks included. They could charge less and offer drinks as they do on Perfect Day - unlimited drink package, charge as you go or vouchers for high level C&A cruisers. More people may then take part especially for those who do not drink.

    Might have to wait a little bit to experience it. I know it will be packed for a while. Best to wait till it cools down so I could enjoy it without it being over crowded.
    But I'm curious on what's going to happen during the Costa Maya "Perfect Day". With that new tax they just put on cruises. I hear a lot of cruise companies are going to start boycotting Mexico because of the huge tax hike.

    This isn’t exciting, if you have the drink package on board the ship and free food on the ship, especially if you’re on an bigger ship with water slides and great food venues already paid for, why get off to pay the same company for more food and drinks. A family of four will be $400+ … everyone will want to go just to see at first but it’s just a money grab.

    We have been cruising for the last 28 years and started with Celebrity. We have watched the evolution of cruising and while we enjoy cruising, we are not very happy with the trend. When we started, everything was included, now nothing is included. We are Diamond Plus and cruise 3-4 times per year. These new changes mean that more passengers will get off the ship and we will have more room to just relax. We go on a cruise to get away from daily life. We have a cruise budget and these extras are too much for us.
