vondofife Posted September 27, 2015 #51 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Hi I booked yesterday for March 27th 2016 sailing and it cost £208. Now it's £321.75! I'm also on this sailing and have an Over the Water cabana booked on Nellie's beach. It was £208 when I booked it and now the price has increased to £321.75. So glad that I booked when I did.

ommax2 Posted September 29, 2015 #53 Share Posted September 29, 2015 My mom was able to call in and book one for our sailing...in Labadee on 12/22...I know she booked an OTW for $350. :) While very expensive, it is for us important! Mom is fighting melanoma, and her youngest grandchild is having surgery on her "spot" on 1/7...so we will be in our cabana, with long sleeve rash guards, hats and 100 SPF sunscreen! :) Can't wait!

flyingv4me Posted October 1, 2015 #54 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Wish they'd show up for sale for my January Celebrity cruise. Still greyed out and a red box telling me to purchase on-board. I'll keep checking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
js Posted October 8, 2015 #55 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Why is it letting me book for 2 but not for 6? Nellies Beach. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daghis Posted October 8, 2015 #56 Share Posted October 8, 2015 You don't need to book a cabana for multiple people. Just select one person for the cabana when booking it. You'll be able to invite five others to join you when you go there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daghis Posted October 8, 2015 #58 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Yes, I'm positive. I don't know whether Nellie's Beach cabanas get bracelets (they do at Barefoot Beach, the suite area), but if they do, you'll pick them up when you go to your cabana in the morning. If you book two people in a cabana, the system will charge you each for the whole price of the cabana (thus paying for it twice). They had, in the past, a note in small print somewhere on the page letting you know to book just one person. I don't know whether it still says it, but it's still true.

js Posted October 8, 2015 #60 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Thank you VERY, VERY much for this thread! I never thought to look at it since I thought the cabanas went directly to the suite guests (I'm in E1s LOL). I called RCCL and was able to get an over the water cabana on Nellies Beach for $395. The website shows, for me $295 for beach cabana and $395 over the water. This is for January 30. As Dagis informed me, I only used my name but they assured me all 6 can go in and actually there will be a few more adult children (17, 21 and 22) that may come and go but will be jet skiing and taking in the sun. So happy. This will be a Christmas present from my sister and me to my mom :) Is there a specific cabana number I can request? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daghis Posted October 8, 2015 #61 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Is there a specific cabana number I can request? You can't request a specific cabana number in advance, but what I did (successfully) was to go to the shore excursions desk immediately after boarding and make my request to them. (We had a large group that had reserved six cabanas and I wanted to request that they all be adjacent.) In addition, when we got to Labadee, I got off early and went to the cabana area to confirm that my request had been honored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
js Posted October 8, 2015 #62 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Over the water was $250 last January but I heard the price went up. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk I just paid $395 for over the water for December 30, 2015. I wasn't aware I would have been able to book one since not in a suite. SO happy, even with the price hike.

Is there an over the water cabana map that I can look at to see what I want to request. What are the most requested/wanted and why? Thank you so much!

Daghis Posted October 8, 2015 #64 Share Posted October 8, 2015 There have been some pictures taken that are annotated with the cabana numbers, but I didn't save them, so I don't have them handy. Perhaps someone else will be able to post one. I don't know about the popularity of the different cabanas. I think that has been discussed, but I don't remember what the pros and cons were of them.

flyingv4me Posted October 18, 2015 #66 Share Posted October 18, 2015 I just reserved an OTW Nellies cabana for my 1/10/16 Celebrity Silhouette cruise for $255. I was unable to book prior to today and am a happy camper!!! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toddcan Posted October 21, 2015 #67 Share Posted October 21, 2015 I'm amazed at the price differences I am seeing for the Nellies OTW Cabanas. They were $250 when we had ours in March. I'm considering booking a Navigator cruise this coming March again because it goes to Labadee, my favorite port. I LOVE LOVE LOVE The OTW cabanas, but the inside cabins are selling for $445 pp - and a Cabana is now that price? oh, come on.... enough to completely turn me off of booking the cruise all together. Argh.. a lot changes in 6 months... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
