Review summary
Labadee needs more upgrading. The lack of freshwater washing makes playing in saltwater a nuisance in the heat. I hate drying in a salty suit. Makes my skin burn and itch. The food was lousy, with little variety. Haitian locals will beg you to see their shops, reminiscent of going to Carib cities in general. They actually have security, some with sidearms, watching the tourists for their safety. It is very scenic and makes a good impression overall. Unless you pay extra, the really fun stuff (ziplining over the water) is “display only”. Needs to add more showers/footwash and better food at a minimum. CoCO Cay is the best island experience I have ever had. I am 71 years old and very well travelled. They hit it out of the park with this one. Great EVERYTHING! Please add a convenience footwash where the dock starts so I don’t bring sand aboard. We had to use the kiddee splash park in an awkward fashion to get the sand off. Everyone else copycatted and trashed the small area with lots of sand. Don’t they notice this stuff? They nailed everything else! Please upgrade. It was fantastic! Truly “perfect day”.Embarkation
