Creator's Key Takeaways

Royal Caribbean wants you to drop over $100 at Perfect Day at Coco K on waterparks and beach clubs.

My verdict, Chill Island is worth it. Absolute no-brainer.

My verdict, Harbor Beach is worth it, especially if you value space over scenery.

My verdict, Splashaway Bay is absolutely worth it.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Get off the ship early after it docks to secure free chairs and umbrellas at Chill Island.
✓Bring water shoes for kids at Splashaway Bay to protect their feet from hot ground.
✓If you want peace and quiet without paying for a beach club, visit Harbor Beach.
