Best Beach instead of Hideaway?

[Kid Sensation]

Hey everybody- 1st time to Labadee and was reading these boards and most seem to say that Hideaway is the place to be if you want less crowds. However I have also read that this beach is closed due to pier construction.

 

What beach do you recommend if we want to avoid the masses? Just want to lay around and soak in the caribbean beauty.

 

Thanks in advance.

That sucks about Hideaway Beach. I woud guess that the next furthest down, Barefoot Beach, would be the next best. If you really want to get away, consider doing the Malfini Beach Excursion.

Does Barefoot Beach have those big thatched-roof umbrella like things that I've seen in people's photos? (Someone mentioned they did have them at Hideaway Beach.)
