Royal Carribean nailed it with this one. WE are grand parents with our son/DL and grand kids off the ship for a day and it was so "all-the-above" I couldn't believe it. Great vibe for all demographics. Great accommodations (chairs, umbrellas, transport, etc). Great food. Great service. Cannot say enough and hope to take all the family next time.

Loved Coco Cay itself and can’t wait to go back. We had as a family and wonderful day. It is very organized, clean, and beautiful. The pool, beaches, and food were a 10. There was two ships docked and plenty of chairs to choose from. However, the kayaking excursion was a disappointment. My kids are 11, almost 12 , and experienced kayakers and swimmers. I read reviews prior to booking. We had tandem kayaks one adult one child. Our group had to guides one in front and one in back. Our destination was never clear, even when asked the guid just pointed across the ocean and it was not to the sandy beach that we could see. It was across the ocean I guess to another island? We never made it. My son and husband flipped half way, while wilayti g for another couple who flipped we all drifted back to shore and had to start over again. There was jo way we could make it to the the island the waves were rough especially with kids and not two strong adults paddling. I would day say this is for age 16 and up. I decided to turn around once I could see husband had flipped. One couple took a boat rescue ( they had capsized too) and my son and husband turned around and made it back to shore. It was not fun nor cheap experience. Would not recommend, it sounded like leisurely kayaks along the shore line, swimming, seeing wildlife, but only if you make it across the choppy ocean to get there. The single adult kayakers seemed to do fine. Nobody even checked with us to see what happened or why could make it. If I had signaled for help the way we were instructed Im not sure they have seen us as everyone was so far apart from each other.

We honestly had a perfect day here. We took the tram from the ship to the island and then walked to Chill Island for our jet ski tour. We were a little early, so my husband and son sat on the beach while I did a little shopping at the straw market. I was happy to know that you could still charge to the ship at the straw market. It made it very easy to put our things in a free locker and leave them there. The lockers were plentiful and secure. When it got time for our tour, we were taken inside for instructions and guidelines for driving. Everything was very clear. We then boarded our jet skis and took off. The guides, Senale and Daniel were always attentive and clear about what we were doing next. The tour is broken up into several phases so that everyone can keep up. Our 17 year old son had never driven a jet ski and had the time of his life. We always felt safe during the tour and had a great time. The guides were lots of fun. After the jet ski tour, we had a delicious lunch on the island. There were lots of options and they were all good. The chicken was delicious! The ice cream was also welcome on a very hot day. After lunch, we rented beach mats and just floated for a while. I don't think I have ever been so comfortable. Afterwards, we did a little more shopping and then headed back to the ship. The island never felt crowded and the staff was very friendly. The trams to and from the ship were very nice as well. It was a very enjoyable day.

The water park was a great way to spend the day. There was plenty of seating, loungers, food areas, drink stands, and bars. The kids loved the water slides, there is a wave pool and a lagoon. There is something for everyone at any price point. There is also a lot of construction going on so there is sure to be more to come as well.

Went to Coco Cay as a stop on Harmony of the Seas. Amazing beach. Plenty of lounge chairs. Thrill water park is too expensive and not a good value. Save your money. Beautiful water! Wish they would have had waitstaff available for drinks on the beach. Beach was busy and only two waiters who never made it over to me. Otherwise great day at Coco Cay! Also wish there would have been more souvenirs available!

On the third day of our Independence of The Seas cruise we visited Coco Cay. We had booked an excursion to swim with the pigs. Naturally I was nervous and hesitant given the previous days experience at Blue Lagoon! This however was seamless and after a short speedboat ride we were on the island. We were allowed to take as many photos as we liked before we got down to the beach on our own devices, then we went to swim with the pigs and they took lots of photos (you weren’t allowed your own devices in the water), we had plenty of time – we didn’t feel rushed at all. We were then allowed to have more photos with the babies with our own devices. Photos were purchased later, not bad value, $89 for 20 photos. After returning to Coco Cay we looked around the straw market (everything here is quite expensive), went in the Oasis Lagoon – listen out for the music playing underwater and went snorkelling in the sea. Food and drink was all included and was of a decent quality. All purchases from the straw market can be put on your sea pass card which is handy so you don’t have to carry cash.

I've never been to the other cruise ships' private islands (but will be next month), but this one blew me away with the sheer size of it, and how much they packed into it! We did the Swim with Pigs tour and did a snorkel rental, and by the time the day was done, we were not even close to have visited the entire island! We opted out of the (expensive) park ticket, and there was still a lot of area to wander and enjoy yourselves. The kids even have two free splash/play zones to hang out in! The staff are friendly, and while it was quite hot there, it was still a ton of fun walking around and enjoying the tropical atmosphere. If you've never been on a cruise, and are wanting to go to something tropical, I highly recommend doing an RCL cruise that visits Coco Cay. It may be a "planted" tropical getaway, but hey, some times the reality of a "real" tropical getaway is far less satisfying.

Wow !! What a place, so much to see and experience. Fantastic beaches, pools, places to eat and drink. Most things were complementary with lots of space and while we shared the island with another cruise ship (up to c7000 people)bit never felt too busy in any of the areas. Although we didn’t try the water park. 7 hours wasn’t enough RC to be honest. We were only in Nassau the next day so not sure why we couldn’t stay longer. However I cannot mark down for this. We had a fantastic day that will long be remembered. Hope to revisit again one day.

We loved our visit, decided to Spend the day At Coco Beach Resort area. More private and liked that there were mostly adults enjoying the pool and Beach area.We made reservations for lunch which is highly recommended . Pool loungers Chairs with umbrellas and towels also the use of Rafts for the beach area. Will definitely stay there again. We checked out the entire island by taking the Trams. Loved that everything was organized,clean especially the bathrooms,the hand towels were a nice touch.Maybe next time a cabana would be nice if we were traveling with a large group.

Had a great time reef snorkeling. There was four guy team did a fantastic job. Would love to come back one day. I hope they keep this tour going so people can do this for years to come.
