ava_girl_123 Posted May 21, 2010 #1 Share Posted May 21, 2010 I am not seeing an option to rent a cabana in HMC on Carnivals website? Am I missing something. Are there none available to rent while there? Thanks for the info.. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dst Posted May 21, 2010 #2 Share Posted May 21, 2010 Yes they are available to rent, and well worth it! You can not pre-book the Cabanas on Carnival so they do not have it on the excursions. When you get on the ship, go to the excursions desk and book one. HAL lets you pre-book but Carnival for some strange reason does not :( The last couple (11 & 12) IMO are the best, well removed and few people bother you ENJOY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ava_girl_123 Posted May 21, 2010 Author #3 Share Posted May 21, 2010 Odd.. Well thank you for that.. I would have just assumed they were not available to rent.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5PUPS Posted May 30, 2010 #4 Share Posted May 30, 2010 What are the chances of being able to get a cabana if you're not booked in a suite. We would try to get to the port early, but I'm guessing it is highly unlikely that we would be able to get a cabana. Has anyone had any luck securing one if you weren't in a suite? Thanks!

Typhoon1 Posted May 30, 2010 #5 Share Posted May 30, 2010 Go directly to shore excursion desk upon boarding ship, the line may already be forming. There are 15 cabanas available at $225.00 for up to four people. You do not have to be in a suite to rent a cabana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are cruising on Carnival, you just need to go to the excursions desk and pay for the cabana (on your sail and sign card) It does not matter if you are in a suite or not. Lines can form early, when we booked a cabana on Carnival we had one person wait for the excursions desk to open at 1:00 and then had to buy the person who waited a beverage! If you are on HAL, you can pre-purchase online and if you have a suite a cabana is included (or at least it was a few years back) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiserBruce Posted May 30, 2010 #7 Share Posted May 30, 2010 if you have a suite a cabana is included (or at least it was a few years back) This is not true, and to my knowledge, at least back to 1999 on HAL, has not been true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Cruisergal1208 Posted May 30, 2010 #8 Share Posted May 30, 2010 They are not included with a suite. They rent for $299. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
equusdvm Posted May 30, 2010 #9 Share Posted May 30, 2010 Doing a Carnival cruise in August to HMC and will be boarding early for a wedding prior to departure. I saw someone on this thread say that the excursion desk doesn't open until 1:00 pm. Does anyone know if this is true? I wanted to rent a cabana and thought I would have a head start with early boarding, but if the excursion desk doesn't open until 1, it will be hard to attend a wedding and wait in line at the same time.

LUPY48 Posted May 31, 2010 #11 Share Posted May 31, 2010 When we boarded the Miracle, at 11:15, 2 weeks ago, they told us the desk didn't open till 1pm. But, we were renting the Oasis, and walked over there and completed our transaction immediately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
