Ken at the beach Posted September 14, 2023 #1 Share Posted September 14, 2023 (edited) An announcement will be made on the Coffee Talk today. I suspect based on some hints that it will be regarding the adults only area on CocoCay. Edited September 14, 2023 by Ourusualbeach 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HicksRA Posted September 14, 2023 #4 Share Posted September 14, 2023 (edited) I hear rumors that they are closer to securing a private island in the western Caribbean.. Maybe that? Edited September 14, 2023 by HicksRA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted September 14, 2023 #5 Share Posted September 14, 2023 So they want you to pay money just to have a DJ and no kids? Otherwise, the offerings are the same as the rest of the island. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare OCSC Mike Posted September 14, 2023 #9 Share Posted September 14, 2023 1 minute ago, Ourusualbeach said: So much for their promises that it would be free Yep. I would have checked it out for free but was mostly just hoping it would increase capacity to make up for the increased number of people on the island as more bigger ships will be there together... which it still will, of course, but not sure to what extent. I'm just hoping the schedule doesn't change as my next 3 Wonder cruises have us there alone. I got worried when the Celebrity ships were added but I managed to dodge them so far. I've been there 3 times with 2 Freedom class ships and had no issues with the crowds but I'm not sure what the tipping point would be for us. We're pretty laid back and not bothered by much but at some point it would have to feel crowded. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare crewsweeper Posted September 14, 2023 #10 Share Posted September 14, 2023 Curious as to what's included for the $43.99 pp. But agree it beats the $250 lobster at the Beach Club. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for rubbing it in. I can't wait to hear what $40-90 pizza tastes like. 😁 You deserve it... and I'm perfectly content going back to my favorite spot strategically located walking distance from a grill, a snack shack, and a bar. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were at Coco Cay last week, and they haven't made much progress on that area since we were there in July, so it will be interesting to see whether their opening dates stick. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
