Our cruise boat stopped at Labadee beach for a day. I was stunned bu the beauty of the ocean there... Caribbean waters, crystal clear, the beaches are calm, no big waves, so the children enjoy a lot. Many people relaxing in the sand while the yongsters were having fun. Labadee is a private island owned by the cruise company, so... More

When on-board one of Royal Caribbean’s cruise ships, you may find yourself stopping in Labadee, Haiti. This is a very small secluded section of the island that is exclusively for Royal Caribbean’s use. You can walk around the whole main area in about 20min, and there is also a tram as well for those who have mobility difficulties that leads... More

Ok, I know what you're thinking, "Haiti?". Dont be afraid, dont be skeptical, the Labadee port is owned and operated by Royal Carribbean. You're perfectly safe, you're not going to be exposed to Haiti itself. What you're going to experience here is some of the prettiest water and beaches anywhere in the Caribbean along with any beach activity you can... More

We stopped at Labadee during our Royal Caribbean Cruise. This is their private beach port-of-call. My husband and I did the Dragons Tail Apline Coaster, which was fun and offered gorgeous views of the island and sea, but was a bit pricey at $21. This price is per cart, which can hold two people if you aren't over a combined... More

Just came home from a cruise on Freedom of the Seas. I loved the sparkly clean ship. She was a beauty. The Royal Promenade was a great experience to stroll on. They have a Ben n Jerry’s ice cream parlor, a cupcake cupboard, shopping, and other things. The food was outstanding. I had shrimp cocktail very evening, one night I... More

They try to give a variety of activities but they do come at a cost. My husband did the zip line over the water, I believe he paid $90. I feel this is a high price for a small demo then one large zip line. For $90, you should get multiple zips. They have a slide that looks nice for... More

Beautiful beaches, places to purchase gifts, and attractions for the young and old alike. I personally enjoyed what was billed as the longest zip line over water - 2600 feet. Even though I'm getting a bit long in the tooth, I had to try this one. We were given a teaser ride on a shorter line, just to give us... More

A nice stop to just relax as the first stop of our cruise. A controlled area by Royal but some good stuff to be found once you got past the sales people at the sales area. Have a great painting and now framed and hanging looks great. Nice beaches on the west side and plenty of sun so is that... More

The most important thing to know about Labadee is that it is not a cruise port in which you'll have an opportunity to experience Haitian culture. Labadee is Royal Caribbean's private beach on Haiti and is effectively disconnected from the rest of life on the island (in fact, if you're paying attention you'll notice the 8 foot cyclone fence topped...

This is a review of Labadee from our Freedom of the Seas RC Cruise on April 16, 2013. It is just beautiful! The ship provided the food for our beach day and the properties amenities were great! Only a couple of negatives 1) there is a charge for practically everything, so it's not an all inclusive day. b) the locals... More
