      Wouldn't it be interesting if the RC community turns their nose up to the prices and stays on the ship ? The crew love it when we hit a port because we get off and the ship is quiet. What if over half stay on the ship and keep our money in our wallets ?

      What’s wrong with 100$ price for a full day on a nice water park? People pay without blinking 200$ to go on Atlantis! If you can’t afford or don’t want to pay, just stay on the beach or even Blue Lagoon pool! I was on coco Cay on the beach and had an amazing day!

    I was surprised that they are charging for the waterpark however the cost is really good in comparison to other attractions in Florida or here in Newfoundland Canada where we live. We got a great deal on our Sept 2019 cruise on the Mariner so this extra cost is no big deal for us. Can't wait to get there!

      @@marykay8587 I just booked our 4 night Disney cruise yesterday, which has 1 day Nassau, 1 day Disney's private island and 1 day at sea. It was about 30% more than the same itinerary with Royal Caribbean. I'm a huge Disney fan and I love the service you get from their, all of their staff is super highly trained and very involved with you. So for me, it's worth the extra bit sometimes, but I can totally understand that for families, it's often too expensive. I always go with friends or older family members and we each pay our own trip. There are some extra perks to the Disney cruises, like family rooms which fit 5 people, and their rooms are about 25% larger than other cruise lines' rooms. And of course the Disney entertainment you can't find anywhere else, but if you're not a big Disney fan, I understand that's not something you'd want to pay extra for.

    This blog is great. I just booked my coco Cay yesterday on Navigator for Sail in Jan 2020. The prices are crazy. The half of day at the water park is $44.00 a person I believe and that is all we would do lol. The cabana and all that other jazz is just way too much. In all honesty, people who can actually afford an over the water cabana for $1500 for 8 hours, would probably not be on Royal Caribbean.

    Not cool. You've already paid THOUSANDS to be on the dang ship! This is a private RC island only accessible by their cruise in the first place then they nickel and dime you for the activities once you get there? Cabanas are 1 thing, fine, charge the people who want to pay for them. But slides and water play are another. Cruises with this as a port are already 50%-100% more expensive now than they were before the upgrade so you're already paying a premium just to be there, even if you don't get off the ship! $1500 and up in the summer for a 3 DAY cruise in a basic ass room, not cool.

    This does not appeal to me at all I much prefer Labadee. This looks like a giant over priced kiddie amusement park.... Very glad we're one of the last cruises on the Allure that goes to Labadee instead of this monstrosity.

    One of the reasons I love all inclusive resorts over cruising is there are no hidden fees. Cruises nickel and dime you to death and at the end when you go to settle up your bill it can be sticker shock if you didn't keep track of spending.

    I was just there 2 weeks ago, the island is a wreck. I realize they are supposed to be under construction to renovate into this, but it's still no excuse. They should shut down to do this instead of having customers inconvenienced, and money wasted. I doubt all this will open on time with the streets of things we saw.
    We love royal carribean, enjoyed the other ports, but they should just go to Labadee until this is finished.

      Leslie M Im so sorry I didn't get back to you before your trip. I hope you had a good time. Don't get me wrong we had a good time on our cruise, and I would have said, yes get off the ship and make the best of the day. I just wish they had told us the island was under renovation, I wouldn't have spent the money on the bed. I really don't have any desire to go back once this is complete. Does it look cool, sure but I didn't spend the money to go to the Bahamas to swim in a damn pool. I want to spend the day on the beach, under a palm tree, swimming in those gorgeous blue water...... not on a water slide..... I can do that at six flags here. Plus as much as we pay for these trips, the shit should be included..... especially since this is royal Caribbeans resort. Labadee was nicer, I could spend the entire 7 to 10 days there. Please let me know how your trip was..... we are looking forward to another cruise in 2 years.

    Nice royal Caribbean. Nickel and dime your customers. Let them pay for the cruise and then charge them for the water park. You guys should rethink that, people will avoid your cruise ships that has that port in their itinerary. Water park should be FREE!

    • @malekatahcampbell6326
      @malekatahcampbell6326 5 років тому

      Absolutely it should be FREE! it's like having a monopoly..they own the ship and they own the island..no port fees...charge for the waterpark and other attractions..there should be laws preventing this! It only benefits the cruiseline. I'd rather go to another port where my funds will benefit the locals and not the cruise line SMH...just greed! They're figured why pay them, we'll just purchase our own island and cut out the middleman 👺
