Cococay OTW Cabana reservations

[wolfganghowell]

Is there a way to find out how many are available on a sailing?  We cruise this fall and while we know we want a cabana, the thought of paying $1800 7 months in advance is a bit much.  Yes, I know first come first served.  Just wondering if there is a way to keep an eye on the inventory before making the commitment.

No.  You'll only know when they are sold out.  Plus, remember there are usually two ships there so both have to share/split them.  Personally, I think $1800 is a lot for a few hours.  We quit getting cabanas on Labadee when the prices skyrocketed.  Was it worth $200 for a day, probably, but not $750.

There are 8 of us it comes to a little more than $230 a person.  So for us, we're all in.  I'm sure we'll have to pony up sooner rather than later.

My cruise planner has shown "Only 2 left" and "Only 1 left".  Whether that's true or not is a different story.

FWIW, we have an OTW cabana in July, we hoped for a black friday sale and it did not happen, we bit the bullet and paid $1800 first week in March, price has not changed, and there are still Cabanas available today.

Here are some pictures from yesterday.  We (Enchantment) and Oasis were both docked.  It looks really nice with what looks like private servers, slides, and access to a reserved area.  Overall, really impressed with Coco Cay.

When the cabana inventory starts getting low they do specify how many are left.  I had to bite the bullet and pay in Oct of 21 for a April 2022 cruise b/c inventory was low - has been sold out ever since...

I always reserve the popular things regardless of the price.  I watch the prices and if there is a sale I call to cancel and repurchase at the lower price.  You can do it online as well, but with things that have a limited quantity I call to do it because I don't want to get shut out.

Just book it and if the price doesn't come down, cancel it if you don't want to pay the full price.

This.

But if you've got a full 8 people, keep in mind that it does include the beach club, and that atmosphere is pretty nice. If you get it down to $230 a person, that's not that bad.

Same. My July cruise says "5 Spots Left"

Literally double what it was in October 2021 on Oasis.
