SebagoSue Posted April 7, 2023 Report Share Posted April 7, 2023 I haven’t seen any CBC day passes available in the Cruise Planner for 2024. All the normal cabanas and other items are available for purchase. Are day passes showing up on anyone else’s 2024 cruises? Or does Royal have another plan? Like maybe once Hideaway Beach opens they turn the Beach Club into a suites only area unless you buy a cabana there, similar to Barefoot Beach on Labadee? Just a thought.

Xaa Posted April 7, 2023 Report Share Posted April 7, 2023 Yes, they show on my May 25, 2024 Icon. Your theory is that they take something they can charge 200-300 for and make it a free benefit for suites like BF Beach instead? That kind of silly talk will get you thrown out of the meeting room. The model is move free things to paid things, not paid things to free things. CharmMicah68, Carlos A., fireclan and 4 others 1 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted April 7, 2023 Report Share Posted April 7, 2023 I don't see it for Adventure in June 2024. SebagoSue and Neesa 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatsFanBrian Posted April 7, 2023 Report Share Posted April 7, 2023 Not listed yet for Odyssey in Jan 2024. But at that price posted above, that's a hard pass. I'll go with a beach bed for half the price. The high price may be due to it being Icon, I'll see how they price it for my sail, whenever they post it.

JohnK6404 Posted April 7, 2023 Report Share Posted April 7, 2023 They have been on sale in the CP since the day we booked Icon last OCT for our May 11, 2024 sailing... I think we're going to explore Hideaway Beach this time! SebagoSue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leroyr55 Posted April 7, 2023 Report Share Posted April 7, 2023 I paid $80.00 a person for my May 2023 cruise on Harmony. That is my limit $283.00 per person is absolutely ridiculous. Seems Royal is really getting greedy. TessFromFlorida, USFFrank, Starrynight0154 and 2 others 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's $169.99 for that sailing right now and has not dropped below $160.99 since the BF sale last year. Peter D 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SebagoSue Posted April 7, 2023 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2023 It’s good to see some sailings are showing the day passes for sale. But $283 and $321 are both a bit crazy! Neesa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ampurp85 Posted April 7, 2023 Report Share Posted April 7, 2023 I know I am the minority, but I don't think the Beach club is worth anything, let alone over $100. I think the complementary food on PDCC was better than anything at the beach club. Granted I do not eat seafood, but I absolutely hated the steak. But also even with two ships, I found quite places to read and relax. Cactus527, Neesa and Ryan79 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan79 Posted April 7, 2023 Report Share Posted April 7, 2023 I am also in the $100 club. Paying in excess of a few hundred dollars is almost criminal! If you want less crowds, better drink service, and a pool…stay on the ship that day and save a small fortune. Neesa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
putinbay Posted April 8, 2023 Report Share Posted April 8, 2023 Yeah, these prices are insane! For our Wonder cruise last year, the cost for "Thrill Waterpark" was $89. I'm not very good at math, but I believe $207 would be more than a 100% price increase. Nothing thrilling about that, my fiends . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jill Posted April 8, 2023 Report Share Posted April 8, 2023 $283 for our April 2024 Icon. We will likely try Hideaway. If Hideaway is ready for our late October Allure 2023, we will scope it out then . SebagoSue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoomSlayer Posted April 8, 2023 Report Share Posted April 8, 2023 They are there for my January sailing. Not interested personally because I will be doing things with kids and grandkids on other parts of the island, but they do show as available.

That said, I did enjoy some of the beach club food last May. Our steaks were excellent and I liked the coconut crusted lobster sandwich (more than the regular lobster). When not being treated by my generous FIL on a family cruise, my wife and I have a favorite spot that we parked at 3 times between July and October and we always have an amazing time there spending nothing but tip money for Diamond drinks. To each his/her own. DoomSlayer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
