Duck Down Posted November 7, 2014 #1 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Has anyone reserved the cabana bed package? We have not been to Mr Sanchos but are considereng booking one while on a Christmas cruise. There are going to be 6 ships in port that day and our ship is one of the late arrivals at 10 AM. What can you tell me about the experience? Are they worth it? Are the cabanas near the water or set back? Do they come with sun loungers as well?

Hey, I've booked to go there(1st time) on the 22nd sailing. You can't book cabanas as they are 1st come basis. So you had better be there early. I messaged them and that's what I was told... Happy cruising! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sungifts Posted November 8, 2014 #3 Share Posted November 8, 2014 (edited) You can rent a "cabana" thru their website. It's $200 and comes with a massage. We were there a couple weeks ago. The cabanas are covered, 4 posts with a mattress and curtains you can close. If they are not rented they are free if you can snag one. I did think it was good for people with children that may want to nap. Here is a pic - not the best but gives you an idea. We were on the AI side. I did see some on the pay side that were palapa covered and seemed nicer. Keep in mind that in front of them are 2 rows of tables with umbrellas or palapa roofs then 2-3 rows of beach chairs so your beach/ocean view is limited. We loved it there and plan to go back in January! Sent from my iPhone using Forums Edited November 8, 2014 by sungifts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisegirl06 Posted November 9, 2014 #4 Share Posted November 9, 2014 I'm curious to see if anyone has booked one. We're currently booked for the AI side (cruising thanksgiving week) and I'm toying with getting one. We have a toddler and a preschooler, so I think it would be good for naps and to have guaranteed space, but not sure if we "need it". Also, does anyone know if one person can use both massages (one hour massage instead of two 30-min)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sungifts Posted November 9, 2014 #5 Share Posted November 9, 2014 If you get there early enough you can probably get one for nothing. When we went we got there pretty early and non that I saw were reserved. You will be put at a table with an umbrella. You can also "rent" ($15 refundable deposit) an umbrella to put over one of the beach layout chairs and use that for a nap place if you don't get a cabana.

TDCRose Posted November 11, 2014 #6 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Booked this two years ago and it was nice, but did not use the cabana much-thought I would never book this way again. We are booked again for the next cruise in Feb. 2015 fro the romance package-it was only 20.00 more then booking the AI and the massages. It also was they only way to book that allowed to order off the menu if there was a buffet offered. Buffets are okay-would rather have the option of the menu. The massage was excellent the last time.

We had the option of ordering off the menu (and did so in addition to the buffet) on the AI side just a couple weeks ago and we didn't have a cabana. I have heard others talk of not being able to order off the menu. I wonder what the deal is with that :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12reca Posted November 11, 2014 #8 Share Posted November 11, 2014 We used Shore Excursioneer - Mr. Sanchos Cozumel for this one. Was $5 off list price of Sanchos. Can't wait!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prisc777 Posted November 18, 2014 #9 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Sounds like a good deal, we are looking for those kind of options. Any other ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fbricks70 Posted November 28, 2014 #10 Share Posted November 28, 2014 Just got an answer from Oliver, they are building a new palapa and pool on the AI side!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did the romance package about 2 years ago as well. I loved Mr. Sanchos as it was my first time there. The massage was awesome and the food was great but we found that we spent the majority of our time in the pool rather than in the cabana. We like to drink and socialize (I get very chatty after a few drinks lol) so I suppose if you are more into relaxing then the cabanas are great but I don't know if I would get one again. The mattress was very comfortable though and the waiter was very good at coming to check on us for drinks.

ParRoo Posted December 11, 2014 #12 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Are the cabanas for the romance package near the beach or near the pool? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
