Bahamas or Cozumel?

[TravelGal22]

I started another thread about deciding between the Sensation and the Paradise. Which port is best was mentioned but I would like to get more opinions. We will probably do something laid back like go to a nice beach wear drinks are served.

I'd choose Cozumel over the Bahamas any day! Nachi Cocum is the place to go in Cozumel. $50 gets you unlimited drinks and a 3 course lunch and chairs under a palapa at the beach. Lots of photos in my Liberty review (see link in my signature).

Cozumel all the way, some great all inclusives, we do Coz for beach days mostly!!! All the Margaritas and Guacamole you want, oh yeah!!!

Bahamas = boring to us!!! We have never had fun here!!!

Yes, I checked it out. Looks nice. Do they bring you drinks on the beach or do you have to get them? Are drinks watered down?

we prefer the swim up bar and hot tub but they will bring your food and drinks to the beach for you.

 

we tip a $20 when we arrive and they try to kill us with drinks ;)

[Runaway Parent]

Cozumel-- absolutely better choice.

another vote for Cozumel and Nachi here, they will bring the drinks/food to you and no, they are not watered down :)

Another vote for Nachi Cocum, they only allow 100 ppl per day,

 

swim up bar

 

a look at the beach :rolleyes:

Cozumel in a heartbeat.

[TravelGal22]

Thank you for all the votes. That ship would be the Paradise. Anybody been on it in recent years?

[TravelGal22]

Also, if they only take 100 people at a time, do you buy your tickets before the cruise? Do you buy them from Carnival?

You will want to make reservations ahead of time, you can do that right from their website http://www.cozumelnachicocom.com/default.cfm

Carnival doesn't sell passes to Nachi.

I had 10X rather go to Cozumel than Freeport or Nassau. No..make that 100X. Nachi Cocum or Playa Mia are excellent.

[LRene]

Cozumel, hands down.

[TravelGal22]

We were planning on going in August. Have any of you done the Caribbean in August? Worried about it being too hot. Going on the Breeze in Dec.

Also, are the umbrellas scarce at Nachi Cocum? Husband can't sit out in the heat without it.

We had no problems. Not actually an umbrella per say put as you can see but more of a thatch roof thing...

 

 

 

 

 

I actually loved the POOL!!!!

Bahamas are definitly boring. I would choose Cozumel and the Paradise. My favorite place though is Mr. Sanchos. All inclusive. no buffet. order from the menu all day long. $45 per person. or for $90 per person, you can have a private cabana including a massage for two along with the dedicated waiter all day.... booked through beach tours

this site will not allow me to post a link....it keeps breaking the link. but i can tell you that the deposit is only $5 and you pay the rest upon arrival. took five kids with us (teen-adult kids that is) and noone complained all day. everyone is very attentive. drinks are not watered down. this is not through Carnival, but well worth the money.

[TravelGal22]

Pics are really nice. Thanks!

I just love Cozumel for all the cheesy shopping downtown. My body does not allow beaches and sun.

It seems like this is the cheerleader board for Nachi. We did Paradise Beach and loved it in March. $2 chairs, $12 to play on the toys. Yes you buy your own food but it wasn't horribly priced.

 

I'd choose Cozumel too. We, like someone else posted, were bored in Nassau.
