I would expect that to be the case especially once Hideaway Beach is open. The purpose of that beach was to increase capacity in anticipation of Icon.

Rare BecciBoo Posted November 15, 2023 #102 Share Posted November 15, 2023 (edited) I looked at a lot of dates and I couldn't find any in 2024 that another ship was there, but maybe that site has the schedule wrong.

Using this site: https://cruisedig.com/ports/coco-cay-bahamas/arrivals Look at February. On February 2, 9, and 16, Icon is there with another ship.

Rare Denversail Posted November 15, 2023 #104 Share Posted November 15, 2023 I'm there next on Odyssey and we will be joined by Wonder. This is pretty much the same passenger count as Icon and a voyager class ship which is how they seem to be pairing them. Unless you are one of the lucky ones to get there as the only ship which seems pretty rare you will be joined by 10K to 11K of your closest friends. Still plenty to do for everyone.

Cruisemapper is showing Icon with Mariner literally every single Friday starting with Icon's first visit on Feb 2nd. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does seem for your sailing that you're currently the only ship that one date. Other weeks in the fall have Icon and Adventure paired up. By then they are also working in Utopia as well as some Celebrity ships. So you lucked out, at least for now, that you're sailing seems to not have another ship there with you. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nonstop DJ keeping the 'vibe' going. Also, on the other end is the full sports bar with lots of TVs as well as things like a pool table and shuffleboard.

KBS1607 Posted November 15, 2023 #114 Share Posted November 15, 2023 We booked an over the water bungalow as a splurge. We did not pay $3800 for it. I can’t fly extremely long distances so this is my ‘Tahiti’ substitute. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not as far as Tahiti and not as pricey as coco cay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KBS1607 Posted November 15, 2023 #116 Share Posted November 15, 2023 (edited) Well, this is our only travel for the foreseeable future. Our 5 year old Scottie has bladder cancer. We just found out. And the cat in my avatar is 18. He will start treatment the Tuesday after we get back. I will remember that tip for the future.

But thanks, I've been keeping a daily check on both our next cruises. Picked up the $15 Chops lunch on boarding day on our Voyager. But ICON remains pretty steep. I see it’s down to $26 for @mrobstadnow. Looks like my price has stayed at $34 for now on both cruises that stop there. Beach Club still at $124. 17 hours ago, BecciBoo said: Ha it's $279 on ICON!

Rare vacationlover_mn Posted November 17, 2023 #122 Share Posted November 17, 2023 As 2 adults, no kids, who love quiet beaches, had the drink package, and paid under $100- we loved it! I’m skipping it for my cruise with mom (she’s thrifty, and I am positive she’ll love the free beaches). On my next cruise with DH, it’s $150, we won’t have the drink package, so we’re going to try Hideway Beach, just to see what it’s like, since I got a great deal on it ($40). If it’s too loud, we’ll just grab a slice from the new pizza place and leave. fun fact- DH thought free drinks were included at the beach club! He didn’t realize it was because we had the drink package. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let him know unless he likes surprises when he sees the final day invoice. 😀 If you have any RCCL loyalty status you can use the drink benefits at Hideaway beach.

Not so fun fact: Scotties are 58% more likely to get bladder cancer.
