Cabana Rentals in Half Moon Cay

[CruiseFan3035]

We rented our Cabana. We paid for 5 of us as that was the maximum person capacity. Wondering How do they know who belongs to what cabana and how many people there are?

 

Thanks!

Carnival has the reservation list from when you selected your cabana number/location, but they do not monitor the number of guests. They recommend 5 guests based on the size of the cabana and amenities provided, but you could have 20 guests and Carnival would not care. There are no wristbands or secret passwords.

You select your specific cabana number once you are on board the ship by going to the shore excursion desk. They will have your name per the reservation and will then add the cabana # that you choose. They will either ask you then for snorkel fin sizes and beverage preferences or tell you that you will receive a form in your cabin to fill out and return to them.

best money spent renting a cabana here !!

They also wanted the names and cabin number of my other guests. Nobody was using snorkel fins or any other things. Get to the desk ASAP or you will be left with one way out. They are great

IMO the ones way out were awesome!! We had number 10 and it was the best choice ever! We only paid for 4 adults when we had 2 kids also. No one said anything to us and gave us the snorkel gear too

Carnival doesn't check who is sleeping in which bed/cabin......or who is visiting your cabana............;)

We've had #5, #9, and #11. We definitely prefer the cabanas farther down the beach; when we had #5 the beach was much more crowded and we had people coming up to our cabana to use the shower. And that was before the "Captain on the Rocks" bar opened next door. The only down side (IMHO) with being farther down is that the snorkeling isn't good. The snorkeling is much better by the grand cabana, which is closer to the entrance.

Just wondering if any sickness on your cruise??? We heard the noro virus was active.

A couple of cruises ago, we split the cost of the cabana between 3 other couples that we met on the roll call. One couple paid for the cabana and we paid our part of it once we got on board. Its a great place to leave your stuff and to use as a base while on the island. As someone said, Carnival doesn't care who uses it, as long as they get paid.

they dont monitor... we had a crew of about 12 that we "shared" with.. some of our friends also rented clamshells and we had a bunch of chairs out in front too where we all hung out between the cabana itself and on the beach.. it was awesome!!

 

best money you will ever spend while on a cruise stopping there! i wanna go back!!!

What does a cabana cost? We are going to HMC but nothing is listed for that port yet. Is it per person or per cabana?

Thank you very much for the info. I'm surprised that it isn't listed under our excursions yet.
