brockwell Posted January 17, 2017 #1 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Just wanted to share my experience last week with purchasing liquor. Needed to buy a bottle of Patron for a gift and planned on doing it in Roatan since that's where I found the cheapest prices on our last cruise a year ago. When I got there the prices didn't seem so great and I decided to just buy it on the ship where it would be easier. Next day we went to Harvest Caye and the same bottle of Patron that was $52 on the ship was only $35 at the shop on HC. Also, it was charged to my room and delivered on the last night. That new fancy Grey Goose with Cognac was $99 on the ship and $65 at HC. Not saying all things were cheaper but the two I looked at certainly were. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I appreciate it and will make a note to look at the ships liquor and compare to HC. I may pick up a few bottles. I go through a lot of Patron in the summer :) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaCal Posted September 18, 2019 #5 Share Posted September 18, 2019 Take a picture of the price in port and NCL will match the price onboard for theirs 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmbhardy Posted September 18, 2019 #7 Share Posted September 18, 2019 Yes, there is liquor store there. Prices seem to fluctuate but they do have good specials. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BirdTravels Posted September 18, 2019 #8 Share Posted September 18, 2019 HC is a tiny island with a handful of shops. Can't miss the shops. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NH is also tax free so the prices I get at home are probably as good as anywhere. The reason that I ask about where to purchase liquor is mainly for our recreational use on the beach. lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokey11 Posted September 18, 2019 #11 Share Posted September 18, 2019 If you buy the liquor at HC you can walk out of the store with it and drink it there? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a great question if you are going to the beach all day can you buy alcohol there and drink it on the beach? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But out of curiosity, what would be the point of that? Wouldn't it be easier just to purchase near your home? It’s much, much cheaper. Sometimes I can save over 50% on bottles of tequila. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
