I booked a split cabana on our upcoming Apex (3/19) on both sea days.  My only reason was for the comfy seating and having a sure place to put our stuff for the day, get drinks and food without an issue from the butlers and generally have a space on a crowded pool deck.

 

I don't mind people walking by at all.  It is their ship too.  This is just my seat(s) for that day.  🙂

That is my only issue with sea days is having a space to call home by the pool.  I am not a chair hog/ early riser.  I can't do that to other people but this way, I've paid for my space so I feel good about that.

 

Even if I'm not actively sitting there, I don't mind leaving my stuff because I paid for it.

 

On Edge and Apex they face the ocean and a public walkway. On the new Beyond they face the pool with view to the ocean so I think that will be allot better. They are always empty whenever we sailed so I'm not sure people like them. If a drink package is not included in your room, it might be nice to do a couple of days in the cabanas because the price includes drinks and food. Otherwise I don't think they are worth it. Especially now because ships are only a little over half full so pool seating is good! Also if you have a suite, the Retreat has allot of seating and cabanas by the pool that usually open.

Is there any way to get a discount on these if I already have the premium drink package?

I sure wish that there was an option to use these for a cheaper price if I am already paying for the premium drink package!
