sandebeach Posted July 9, 2019 #1 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Just got an email for our upcoming cruise about South Beach closure. They have relocated the Floating Bar and some Bungalows and daybeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icsys Posted July 9, 2019 #2 Share Posted July 9, 2019 (edited) Coco Beach Club... isn't this going to be a 'for a charge' area with exclusive beach, club house, infinity pool and complimentary dinning area access? Apparently it opens December 2019 Edited July 9, 2019 by icsys Correction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GUEST71919 Posted July 9, 2019 #6 Share Posted July 9, 2019 I have been keeping all my fingers crossed in hopes that they did not get rid of the Bungalows. That area was quiet, shady, and private - perfect. I hope they will remain no matter where they put them! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare John&LaLa Posted July 10, 2019 #7 Share Posted July 10, 2019 (edited) Apparently we'll be there Sunday. My first visit, so i'll probably stroll over or take the tram as far as I can. Laura is actually going there Thursday on Mariner Edited July 10, 2019 by John&LaLa 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhuntington3 Posted July 10, 2019 #8 Share Posted July 10, 2019 I snagged a South Beach Cabana for $399 on my Allure TA in November 2020. Can't wait to see how Coco Cay develops! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh dear, if you got the same email, it does sound like there may be a delay and the Coco Cay Club may not be ready in December 2019. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnargnarz Posted July 10, 2019 #11 Share Posted July 10, 2019 We will be there December 14th and received the same email. We have a South Beach Cabana booked. I am waiting to hear back from RCI if the cabanas will be located elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

time4u2go Posted July 10, 2019 #14 Share Posted July 10, 2019 (edited) "Reimagined" South Beach? Why didn't they "imagine" it correctly in the first place? Didn't it open relatively recently? Edited July 10, 2019 by time4u2go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't it open relatively recently? No, I think they have been saying for a while that the Beach Club/South Beach would be focused on after Thrill/Chill were done, and would open in December 2019. (Which likely means March 2020, then May 2020, then finally Sept 2020) I could be wrong, but I had it in my head this was planned to be done separately. So much RCI information, I could be mixing things around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gnargnarz Posted July 11, 2019 #21 Share Posted July 11, 2019 An RCI rep told me that if our South Beach cabana was not cancelled, it is likely South Beach will be complete by our sailing (12/8 on Allure) and the email was to inform us changes are being made to that area. That could be total bogus but I'm hopeful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myraid Posted July 11, 2019 #22 Share Posted July 11, 2019 We received the same email and we cruise on Dec 1. But the South Beach cabanas are still available in the cruise planner which doesn't make any sense! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
