We continue on with our day at Half Moon Cay.
Looking down the beach at cabana’s 1 thru 4…..
Patti has arrived at our cabana…..
We have had this particular cabana once before. We always rent a cabana when we visit HMC. It is up to each individual, family, or group to decide if renting a cabana, villa, or oasis is the right thing for them. Please don’t insist on telling me they are a waste of money, as you try to “borrow” my floats and snorkel gear, and use my shower, and I won’t call you frugal!!! Lol!!
Here are the details for those who don’t already know. A regular cabana as pictured above is $229.95, and includes the following for up to four people: floats, snorkel gear, snacks, soft drinks, water, a private shower, a fan with a mister on the deck, two cushioned loungers, four cushioned chairs, and a round picnic type table. They are air-conditioned, but open in the front, but I remember when they used to have a curtain that could be closed. Purchasing a cabana also gives you priority tendering to the island,(so they say!!). You choose your cabana # and beverages when you first board the ship. (remember that from day 1?)They tell you that if you have more than four people you can pay extra to include them, but don’t do it, as they never check, and the snacks and beverages provided can easily sustain more than four people. And how often will everybody be snorkeling or using the floats at the same time? Even when meeting in the lounge, no one checked our excursion tickets, so anyone could have joined the line down to the first tender.
The two story villas are $499.95, and are initially set up for eight persons, but can hold up to twenty. Again, paying extra charges for more than eight persons are probably not necessary. In addition to the snacks and beverages mentioned above (but for eight people), extra amenities with the villa’s include a hot tub, and private bathroom.
The cabana snacks…..
Now I have some issues with the above!! First, what happened to the sliced pineapple and melons that they used to give? Also, I’m not seeing the veggie platter that used to be included. Thirdly, with the amount of dips that they give you, you will run out of dip before you have consumed a quarter of that huge bag of chips that they give you!! Cutbacks yes, deal breaker, no.
Cabana beverages (8 sodas, 2 large bottles of water)……
Truer words were never spoken!!!.....
My favorite part is the view….
