IMO, CocoCay puts Castaway Cay to shame.
Sigh. While I haven’t been on the modernized coco, I loved the old coco so so so much. It was so peaceful. So nice. Loved the lizards and chickens roaming around. Loved how they didn’t have just one big beach, but small inlets so you never felt like you were there with thousands of other people. The ONLY thing it was missing in my eyes was a not-quite-5k.
And now...sigh.
This is my issue with other cruise ships. I am allergic to cigarette smoke and hate that they allow smoking anywhere on the inside of the ship
But they don’t. There’s no mainstream line that allows smoking *anywhere* inside the ship.
I went on a Celebrity cruise ship and the casino was close to the lobby area, which was multi tiered and you pretty much needed to walk past it to get around if you were not out on the top decks.
Celebrity doesn’t allow smoking on the casino anymore. Or anywhere indoors.
Even Holland no longer allows smoking in staterooms.
Meanwhile, Disney Dream has a smoking section along the path around the ship that you jog on. UGH.
most of what I hear about them seems to focus around drunk passengers acting badly. Can I get some counter points to that?
Aren’t there a bunch of posts in this thread that are already counterpoints?
I was hoping that a Disney cruise would be different, but maybe I should just have a different expectation for cruising in general?
You had a lousy cruise.
Does it change when you have a longer trip scheduled?
Yes.
It’s been stared for years and years that the shorter the cruise on carnival, especially around college breaks, the more potential for obnoxious behavior.
