Can someone who has been to both compare them please. Thanks
i myself have only been to dcl's cc but my friend has been to both and says there is no comparison, that cc is by far better. i have heard that rc's is fenced off from the rest of the island to keep people out and that you often see children there hoping for food. that i think is very sad. disney has the whole island.
now as i said, i've only heard this so maybe someone else can chime in.
You are referring to Labadee, not Coco Cay. Labadee is a private area on Haiti, Coco Cay is a private island in the Bahamas; both are utilized by RCCL.
I've been to both Castaway and Coco and I think they are both pretty. I preferred Coco Cay but it really depends on what you want. Food was about the same on both (yuck!), beaches were very pretty and clean. I did like that there were trams on Castaway to get you around from place to place. Our DCL cruise with kids couldn't dock at Castaway so we never visited the family beach, our Fantasy cruise was sans kids and we went to the adult beach. I thought the loungers at the adult beach were poorly maintained and drink service was spotty. Coco Cay is a tender port so that's different, if you don't like tenders, then Castaway is the better option.
I've been to three private islands (so far) and they are all lovely beach days. So far, Half Moon Cay has been my favorite but I wouldn't turn down a day at any of them!
sorry, your right. i think i will just delete my post......again, my bad, sorry.
