Royal Caribbean has hit a home run with Coco Cay. Families will have a great time playing on all the slides and water features. Kids will have a blast! The giant pool is a super hangout for party seekers - music and drinks abound. The beaches are quiet and refreshing. It's got it all. It really is a perfect day!

The makeover of Mariner was well done. The ship is very clean and looks brand new in every respect.
Cabin / Stateroom

Very clean, plenty of space for my wife and I. Bed was great and the balcony is just right for that morning coffee and danish!
Ship tip
Be sure to walk forward outside on deck 4 to Helipad, especially when the ship is underway. Also, forward on the port side in the solarium you can go to the peek a boo deck - a window looking into the ship's bridge!
No excursions. We only got off the ship because we were traveling with first time cruisers. It's not a place that I look forward to seeing - dirty, traffic is horrendous, nothing really worth seeing.
Awesome! RCCL has performed an amazing job at Coco Cay. The place has been transformed into a fun and exciting destination. The best part is the beaches and sandbars are just as they've always been - wonderful. By all means go up in the helium balloon - the view is spectacular! Kudos on the new design of the food areas - large, clean, easy to use - food was very good! We also love the paver walkways.
Easy and fast. We did the walk off BUT we got a porter once inside the terminal. You bypass the long line for customs to a much shorter one for porters. Best $5 I spent on the cruise.
