Royal Palms Cabana?

[ihopfar]

We are planning to go to RP and are happy to find out there are only two ships in port that day.  However we are there from noon till 7 and the other ship is there 7 till 5.

 

Will we be able to rent 2 chairs and an umbrella on the beach by the time we get there or will they all be taken?  Should we reserve a beach cabana instead?

 

Thanks!

We were there in July on a day with two ships (ours and one other). RPBC was nice, but very crowded. We elected to rent a cabana in advance, and that wound up being an excellent choice. I have some static pictures as well as a video if you want to get a sense of the place. The video will give you a better sense of how crowded it gets at the peak. It is an excellent beach day if you want a gorgeous beach and a high energy vibe. It is not as good a choice if you want quiet.

 

Unsolicited- for lunch you should check out Cayman Cabana. You can walk there from the cruise pier. My goodness I liked that. We had two senior citizens, 6 40somethings, and 6 kids in our group. We all liked our lunch, which was an impressive feat for any place.

I was there in December with 5 ships. We were on the 12-7 time. (Reflection) There were plenty of chairs and umbrellas available for rent.
