MizDemeanor Posted October 28, 2016 #101 Share Posted October 28, 2016 We have one reserved for March. We are wondering if we could bring two of the lounge chairs up close. I have a very bad back and I can't set up straight for an all day beach trip. Last year we had one on Nellies Beach and they had 2 lounges. These are not available for this cruise. TIA Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk I can't think of a reason why not. Even though the loungers are very close by, say 10 feet facing toward the water, I pulled one up alongside because that was where the sun was when I wanted to take my nap. :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MizDemeanor Posted October 30, 2016 #106 Share Posted October 30, 2016 My Cruise Planner shows $250 Adult. Does it mean per adult? No it's one fee for up to 8 people. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

papaflamingo Posted October 30, 2016 #108 Share Posted October 30, 2016 Pano of the area from our bungalow. If this photo uploads many thanks! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk thanks for the info and picture. We are going in Jan. We have a group of 14. Is it possible to get one bungalow and have 14 share it more as a base of operation, or will they actually only allow 8? Likely we'll try for 2 anyway, but we have some who love sun and some who don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be annoyed to have 14 different folks going in and out next to my $250 beach hut.. ;) edit; with 2 you're indeed allowed Edited October 30, 2016 by FreestyleNovice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're still on the fence about one next week, will take pics if we visit that side of Labadee! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladywraith24 Posted November 7, 2016 #112 Share Posted November 7, 2016 Actually the beach bungalows on Columbus cove are for up to 8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreestyleNovice Posted November 15, 2016 #113 Share Posted November 15, 2016 The Bungalows are on the very end of Columbus Cove and have a small piece of the beach, some 20-25 loungers dedicated for the Bungalows. Each Bungalow comes with two floating mats, a cooler filled with ice and 4 small bottles of water. Directly behind the Bungalows it's roped off. Bungalow #1 is directly behind the attendant's check in desk and also gets the most accidental walk ins and other foot traffic. Bungalow #8 is tucked in next to a wall and closest to the small boats using the pier/water taxi facility. The Bungalows are set up in a half circle, half double row of beach loungers in front of the water line, some 30ft from there to the Bungalows, it's cozy and has some palm trees. I think the Bungalows are given out on a first come, first serve. We walked up without a reservation which was kind of new for the poor attendant, price was the same as online ($250). Only one other Bungalow was occupied and left shortly after our arrival and very light rain shower. The roofing is made of bamboo and is not closed, I would have liked to see a ceiling fan and/or some power outlets, maybe a clothes hook or a wall cabinet/shelf. It was very basic; Bungalow, corner sofa with cushions, coffee table with glass counter top, beach towels for use and curtains on all sides. I guess it's pretty in balance to the other offers; like the $175 open daybed in Adrenalin Beach and much more expensive cabana's on Labadee. But non the less, a great spot to have a beach retreat!

MizDemeanor Posted November 16, 2016 #117 Share Posted November 16, 2016 While there may be, we did not find drapes at the front of the bungalows in October. It seems so desolate for the guest and withdrawn that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ravenjls Posted November 16, 2016 #123 Share Posted November 16, 2016 I am really on the fence on whether we would use it or not. We really need shade but I would much prefer a lounger. Can you reserve one online and cancel if you decide you dont want it before the cruise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
