It is going to be open based on the FB post that was the briefing YC passengers received yesterday on what to expect in YC. Of course, we will know more tomorrow. But, I can't imagine that they would go into detail on how many seats were in the restaurant if the passengers were not able to use it. It does appear to be ready for all the activities and judging from the photos the beach looks amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dexddd Posted December 4, 2019 #7 Share Posted December 4, 2019 Thanks for this info. You'd think they'd include umbrellas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a bit odd, given the context of all things Yacht Club. There must be a good reason for that decision. For us, it's not a big deal. We live in Ft. Lauderdale, so we don't cruise for the beach. This is the first time we're hitting a private island where almost everything is included. IIRC, Princess provides a buffet of grilled hot dogs, etc., but beverages were not included, even with the drink package. We are excited to get off and see it. We usually treat that day like a sea day. The dedicated YC area is a big draw, though. For YC guests who want that umbrella, it does seem sort of nickle/dime grabbing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mafig Posted December 4, 2019 #9 Share Posted December 4, 2019 Are there a lot of palm trees in the YC area? Maybe that's why .... they feel you don't really need an umbrella, but will get you one if you want it. Just guessing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dexddd Posted December 5, 2019 #11 Share Posted December 5, 2019 The palm trees look pretty small so not thinking much shade from them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

js Posted December 5, 2019 #15 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Although it was steep, after seeing the "loungers" which look like they are blown up, the lack of shade, etc., I am very happy I booked a cabana in the YC area. I appreciate your sending the pictures. Thank you very much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
