Hi,

 

I was on the Carnival Triumph last year and spent most if not all of my time at Margaritaville. I walked from the ship into town and into the small complex where Margaritaville is located. It felt perfectly safe to me, I had a meal, a few too many cocktails, and stopped off at a stall on the way back to the ship to buy a few t-shirts etc.

 

Go for it - and have a pina colada for me!

It is a BLAST, we were the last month (November) . Just a short walk from the peir and I felt safe! The food is great and the pool bar and waterslide are awesome. There is also a small beach! Great place to hang out for the day!

Does anyone have a menu with prices?

Margaritaville is great. You should go on an excursion and then end the day with Margaritaville. You really need to do the Cool Runnings Sail & Dunn's River Falls tour. I did it a couple years ago and doing it again for my New Years cruise.

Hi - can anyone give us precise directions for this please? Also, more information - is it a restaurant with it's own small beach? Are there sunbeds?

 

I keep hearing so much people saying how much they enjoyed it - think we'll do it for our Ruby back to back. Don't fancy much of the trips on offer (been to Jamaica before) and was thinking in staying on the ship Jamaica days...

Margaritavile is a bar/restaurant with a small beach. Admission to the beach is $3.00 and a tanning bed is $5.00. Margaritaville is to the right in the pic.

Fantastic help with the photo, Runner15km.

 

I'm really looking forward to our visit here! Found some clips on you tube also - looks good fun.

To use the beach there do you have to be over 21 or can you bring your kids here to play at the beach for a fun and safe place?

Thanks!

It is a kid friendly beach. There were several kids there when we were in April. There is a trampoline out on the water that they were having fun on too.

 

If you are uncomfortable walking to the beach, take one of the approved taxis there. It is a very short drive but you don't have to worry about any problems. Getting a taxi back to the ship is very easy too. They are available in front of the shopping area where Margaritaville is located.

 

We had a great day there and took a little time to shop for t-shirts and coffee after our time at the beach. We enjoyed lunch in the Margaritaville outside dining area right at the beach.
