    I haven't sailed on NCL before either. What type of cabin did you book, and do you mind sharing the cost? BTW, I am 61, so I guess I'm not in your demographic, LOL. [emoji6]

    hi sungold, I booked one of the studio cabins yes just a few years younger! the studio cabins are priced low that's why I jumped at it.

    KenMo,

     

    Thank you.

     

    We didn't get to pick which cabana, but I assume they would give us our choice if it wasn't already taken. We arrived right behind the folks who got the first cabin on the left so I assume that's where they start. On board they just gave us one ticket and then we had to present that ticket to the follks in the rental shack @ Mahogany Bay Beach. The folks there want to keep a S&S card in exchange for a key to the cabana. I declined to let them keep my S&S card because I knew we had additional plans for the day outside of the port and would need it for port entry. They suggested that I drop the key off for them to hold in exchange; I declined. I said that if we opted to lock our belongings that I would not want anyone to have the key but me. They were hesitant though they finally agreed to not require me to leave my card. I'm really surprised they haven't encountered the same scenario before, but apparently they haven't.

     

    Our cabana was the second from the left as you are facing them which would make it the second from the general beach area for everyone on the ship. I wouldn't choose the first one on the left, but I think the furthest right might be the best location; furthest from the populated area of the beach and a nice view of the ship across the cabana area as well as a nice view toward the wooden pier area at the far end of the beach. IMO the only two that would be least desireable would be the center two that has the access walkway in between. Those two would have the most foot traffic going be right beside them and would also back up to the main walkway. I'm not sure how you would go about requesting a particular cabana at the rental shack because they are known by fruit names instead of numbers (Or at least I think it was fruit names ?). Perhaps if you requested the furthest right you would get the right one, but that request might not translate well. :confused:

     

    One thing for sure is that we'll be getting a cabana on our next visit to Roatan even if we have additional plans - which we likely will ;) . With that said our first stop on our next cruise is @ Grand Turk and I'm not planning to rent a cabana there. They're nice cabanas, but they are too close to the pool to be any more relaxing than being @ the pool IMO. Our plans for GT are subject to change though. :D

     

    ooooo say it aint over. paulmedik
