Half Moon Cay....

We are going on an extended family/multi-generational cruise in August. Should we look into the Grand Cabana....the one that holds up to 25 people? Is it worth the money & how much would that be?

I've been to Half Moon Cay - a beautiful beach - just one time, but I remember that there were very few areas where a group that size could "meet". I remember seeing the smaller cabanas & thought that would've been nice. I checked online at Carnival & read about the Private Oasis. It sounds great, the starting price is $$$$, which means $150+, & that's for 5 hours & 10 guests. I don't know the price, but here's what it says online: "The base rate is applicable for up to 10 guests. Only one guest need purchase the reservation for the 10 guests. For groups with more than 10 guests, an 'extra person surcharge' for the Private Oasis at Half Moon Cay must be purchased for each additional person from 11-25 guests."

I'm not sure if that helps!

Thanks Cathy. I have read on another forum that the Private Oasis is $1200! I don't think we can afford that one!! I guess I can hope for 2 cabanas next to each other. I'm sure the kids will be going back & forth from the water anyway. I will chat with the family & see what they want to do.

most of the time these huts are only big enough for a table and 4 chairs. It has an airconditioner. and you get your food delivered instead of lining up for it. They will bring drinks, but you pay for those.
most people do not really use the hut, they are outside, si I would suggest looking at photos of the area, see where it looks like a lot of shade. Try to be early off the ship, and head for a shady spot.

Very beautiful beach
