Ketola511 Posted September 21, 2023 #1 Share Posted September 21, 2023 I need help picking a beach excursion. We would like lunch and not be an hour from the ship. We also need umbrellas and a bathroom are a MUST non negotiable. I am traveling with my parents in the 70's, my handicapped sister and my 8 year old daughter. It is my sister's bucket list to see the beaches of Jamaica. So which would you choose and why? Which would you definitely not choose? 1. VIP Bamboo Beach Club 2. Exclusive Beach Break at Discovery Bay 3. Blue Waters Beach Escape with Lunch and Drinks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare GetToLivin Posted September 21, 2023 #3 Share Posted September 21, 2023 I second the Rose Hall Hilton - absolutely amazing AI with a scenic drive along the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
home-mom Posted September 21, 2023 #4 Share Posted September 21, 2023 We also booked a room for the day at Rose Hall Hilton. Was a fantastic experience. Had a room to store our stuff, change, shower and rest in. Lunch was included. Enjoyed the pool and beach. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psycho and Barb Posted September 22, 2023 #5 Share Posted September 22, 2023 (edited) We have been to VIP Bamboo Beach Club and Blue Waters Beach Escape...Both come with lounge chairs and a bathrooms but the umbrellas will cost you 5 bucks if i remember right. We started out going to the Bamboo Beach Club as it was advertised as lunch and drinks included...The drinks were a rum punch or draft beer and the food wasn't all that great and limited selection. We heard about Blue Waters and gave it a shot...So much better, full bar and great food. The biggest difference for us was Bamboo allowed people to walk up and down the beach constantly bugging us to buy this or that. Blue Water had their own private security that kept the sellers off their property. Blue Waters is our go to place and the snorkling is also great there.

Rare Itchy&Scratchy Posted September 29, 2023 #6 Share Posted September 29, 2023 IMHO, Jamaican beaches would not be on my bucket list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a cruise booked end of April and looking for a beach? if we have a larger party do you have to book multiple rooms for the day? I am assuming that is how you were able to access the beach.

dappledumpling Posted January 30 #8 Share Posted January 30 You buy a day pass.. No room but you get to use the amenities and all inclusive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
home-mom Posted January 30 #9 Share Posted January 30 (edited) We just called Hilton directly and asked about prices for day room and day passes and then picked. Edited January 30 by home-mom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
