Erosion at Lookout Cay Cabanas

[Moonspinner]

I’m no expert on beach erosion but here in New Jersey it is all about encouraging the return of dunes and wetlands.

Maybe Lookout didn’t give enough time for it to establish after construction of the cabanas?

That’s a beautiful beach

We had Cabana 20 shortly after sailings began to Lookout and it was all rocks and we were not allowed to use the beach in front of the cabana. I remember complaining at the time and the concierge staff said they understood and that everyone complains. No refund though. Complained on the internet and got a lot of "any cabana is a good cabana" cheerleading. I guess now that it is half the cabanas instead of a few, people are taking it more seriously.

But really, why would anyone want to pay $1,000+ to not have a beach chair and have to walk down a concrete road to get to the beach, when they could pay $0 and have a spot directly on the beach with a beach chair at the regular Lookout Cay family beach for free? If I just wanted a shaded place to look at the water, I could stay on the ship and sit at my verandah. Private islands are about the beach.

Disney really screwed up on this one. They should never have used this stretch of the beach for cabanas when the other side of the island has an enormous stretch of beautiful beach.
