We are at CocoCay about 10 times a year and NEVER spend a dime out there except for tips. Even with 2 ships, there is more than enough seating. We get off right away as we want front row on the beach, but even if you come later, there are plenty of loungers/umbrella to sit under. We see no reason to spend for the extras. We have the drink package which works out there. We love the free buffets and husband loves the Snack Shack, also all free. I take my own mat out there, so don't have to rent one. One of our favorite places.
