There’s still chickens roaming around on Coco Cay, so that hasn’t changed

A little “Reflection “ on our stop in Coco Cay:

   I was worried about crowds due to Wonder of the Seas docking with us, but it never felt crowded. The Beach Club was less than half full. My husband actually said to me that it really was a “Perfect Day at Coco Cay”. You can choose whether you want to chill out and relax on the beach or by a pool, have fun at a water park, eat at a buffet, food truck, or nice table service restaurant. We will definitely come back.

Last night’s question was, “Can we eat any more food?”. After a great surf and turf lunch at the Coco Cay Beach Club the answer apparently was “Yes!” because we had a dinner reservation at Murano’s. 
  We decided to do the a la cart side of the menu, choosing diver scallop Wellington, lobster bisque, mushroom cappuccino, goat cheese soufflé, and the both of us had the lobster Murano prepared tableside. 

[Kteacher]

Dessert was the artisanal cheeses along with some port. All very good and service was great as always in Murano.

   Tuesday is a sea day and I’m probably going to pack away anything I know we’re not wearing again in preparation for our departure 😭 on Friday. Luggage Valet is back which I was very happy about.

This commemorative photo of the inaugural stop at Coco Cay was left in our cabin last night-

I know, right? We received the luggage valet form yesterday morning and it needed to be returned today. I’m also getting multiple reminders to complete departure information 🙃

1. Agree with many of the thoughts on Coco Cay...it can be anything you make it.  Beach Club is nice for sure, went there with a group on our last Royal cruise..I would do it again..

 

Thanks for the great pics and your reviews of your sailing.

Did Captain Kirk (from Silhouette) come onto the Reflection and replace the current Captain?

You have me sold on the CoCo Cay beach club,  but finding a cruise for Jan 2026 ( our next slot) may be tricky because some ships will sail from the Orlando area. Makes no sense from Venice Fl .We avoid driving on I 4!

 

Happy you had such a PERFECT DAY!

Super easy procedure for B2B. We were escorted out of Michael’s Club and waited about 5 minutes until customs was ready for us. After facial recognition we were given new sea pass cards, new photos when we dinged back onboard. We are in the same cabin again , CS on deck 11. We met our butler for a tour of the Reflection suite and Signature Suites. I’ll upload photos later. We’re currently enjoying a quiet pool, although a large group of TAs just passed through.

Thanks for this info.  We’re on Reflection with you now, and are doing B2B for the next voyage.  Moving from Penthouse Suite to Reflection Suite though, so have to have our stuff moved.  I’m guessing from what you stated that will be a non-event and they’ll take care of everything.

You’ll have our butler when you move to the Reflection suite, and he is amazing.

East on Florida 70 then north, no I-4.

We just did the Mixology class, so much fun! 45.00 pp, which includes 3 different cocktails and fun instructions on how to make your own. The three cocktails we made were an old fashioned, a margarita, and a botanical gin and tonic. The other people we sat near were a lot of fun and it was a great time 👍

[Kteacher]

And of course, after a mixology course you need to stop by Cafe el Bacio -

Campari shakerato for the win 

[Kteacher]

We really haven’t been to many of the shows since we came on board so decided to see Broken Strings. It was a very entertaining show and perfect for pre-dinner. 

[Kteacher]

Dinner tonight was 👍👍👍👍👍. We chose dishes from both the Luminae menu and the main dining room menu. All of the recommendations from our waiter (we asked for the same one every night) and the sommelier have been spot on.
