Thank you!!!

Does that palm tree shade the hammock most of the day?

What are your dates? We sail on the 25th and we'll be in Cabana 9 on the 27th.

We should start a Cabana 9 club! LOL!

I've never paid attention to the Cabanas on the Family beach before. Are the set back and "enclosed" like the Adult ones where you need a band to enter the area where they are or can anyone visit you at them?

Yes, you must have a wristband and no can access without a wristband.

I have a question, if you can't get a cabana and you have children (i.e. no adult beach), is there anywhere you can go and get away from the crowds?

We had a hammock beneath some palm trees near the back of the beach at the first tram stop and it never felt crowded.

You're the cruise just before ours.

Enjoy!

Curious if any adults only booked a cabana on the Family Beach?

Concierge last cruise told us that if we ever booked one, go for one on the Family Beach because of the private beach area. Said the cabanas on Serenity Bay are back a bit and the private beach on the Family Beach would be better. I asked "even without kids?" Concierge replied yes.

So have other adults done this?

Yes. The beach, the view and the proximity are great.

Personally, I would only book a cabana on the family beach for a family cruise, when the kids are with us.

Serenity Bay is so quiet and serene anyhow, if the cabanas there were sold out, we'd just find a spot on the beach to camp out for the day.

The ship?

 

[Bonniec]

The ship?

No, on the family beach

 

[bigAWL]

No, on the family beach

Sorry, actually I was offering the ship as a place you get away from the crowds. Should've added a smilie, perphaps.

We loved our cabana on SB. It was only a few steps from the beach and the beach never felt crowded at all.

I can't even begin to explain how quiet and peaceful it was. Loved every second and was totally bummed when our time there was over.

I have read through several pages of this thread, but forgive me if my question is completely obvious or if it has already been answered, I do not have time to read through them all…

When you book the cabanas online do you select the specific cabana number you want? Or do you just reserve one and they are randomly assigned the specific number the day of?
