Review summary

Great ship with great shows. Book shows online and don't rely on their app. Coco Cay is over rated and small. They also nickel and dime you on too much. Pay $90 for the adult beach?! Pay over $200 for the water park?!

Shady taxi drivers. Tried to cut inside deals with passengers while driving us.

Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas

Overrated. They nickel and dime you too much. Also, it's small, way smaller than Disney Cruise Line Castaway Cay.

You don't have to pay for Hideaway Bay or the water park. They are there as an option.

Thanks for the review. I love coco cay. I use one of the many complimentary areas with included amenities. I agree the price is steep for some of the attractions, but we always enjoy it. Sorry the island disappointed you, but glad you enjoyed most of your experience.
