PROS and CONS of Hideaway Beach! When YOU Should Book! Royal Caribbean's Perfect Day CocoCay!

Editorial Summary

The creator provides a detailed review of Hideaway Beach, the adults-only section of Royal Caribbean's private island, CocoCay. He highlights several advantages, including the 18 plus age restriction, the beautiful interior and exterior design, and the large heated pool which he notes stays around 88 degrees. He also discusses the ability to choose between a high-energy day club atmosphere or a more relaxing environment, as well as the availability of upgraded experiences like private cabanas and the Hideout VIP Club. The creator notes that the area is currently more affordable than the CocoCay Beach Club. However, he identifies several drawbacks, such as the large capacity of 1,800 people which may impact intimacy, and a food selection that he feels is not sufficiently different from the complimentary options available elsewhere on the island. He also mentions concerns regarding potential lines at bars and food vendors, the presence of younger adults in the 18 to 21 age range, and the lack of cushioned seating. Ultimately, the creator concludes that he would not typically book Hideaway Beach again because the experience does not feel sufficiently differentiated from the rest of the island, though he suggests it is an excellent option for winter cruises due to the heated pool.
