Maybe it was having two large ships in port at the same time, but we did not enjoy this private area as much as we wanted to. There were no really good areas for experienced snorkelers, tons of people made all of the waters and beaches crowded. Food was pretty good. The views were spectacular. Sands on the beaches were...

If you are looking for a tropical paradise surrounded by blue-green emerald water with gorgeous white sandy beaches lined with swaying palms with a backdrop of high green forested mountains and azure blue skies, this is the place for you. You can relax and have fun on this Royal Caribbean leased peninsula with sandy beaches, coral reefs and lots of... More

Royal Caribbean did a fabulous job here. The location is beautiful! The walkways, the palm trees on the beaches and the Labadoozies were awesome! It was great that they had a tram also. The horrible part was the locals selling their goods. Everything was pretty much the same so they hounded you to buy from them. You couldn't just walk... More

This port was our stop in April 2012 on the Navigator of The Seas Royal Caribbean Cruise Ship. We did not realize that The Liberty of the Seas would be joing us as well. This beach was so very crowded and there were no beach chairs to be found. A Royal Caribbean rep. finally found us chairs and found a... More

I assume you are reading this because, you are not a beach person and wondering what to do in Labadee. Well, this is Royal Caribbeans private island stop and they have done a wonderful job providing a beach paradise. This is a water fun, sun soaking stop. I have been here a half a dozen times or so. You don't... More

This private, cruise-ship owned stretch of beach in Haiti is spectacular. My one year old LOVED the water park for kids. The zip line coming down from the mountain over the water looked wicked fun. And the water was great (where we hung out for hours). I felt a wee bit guilty thinking how people must be suffering on the... More

Although I agree the stay in Labadee, Haiti was short it was by far my favorite port. Beautiful beaches, great lunch, fantastic snorkeling, outstanding scenery and friendly people. Our group all had a fantastic time there. The vibe you get from this island is magical and very humbling. The venders in the inside market building were very friendly and not... More

We stopped at Labadee port March 28, 2012. It was cooler weather and rainy, so obviously that is a minor setback. My wife and I went with my brother and his wife. My brother and I took the fast boat snorkle adventure which was amazing. The boat is a zodiac type boat seats 12 and has 450HP on the back,... More

We stopped here during a cruise on the Oasis of the Seas. The beaches were fine. Food and drink came from the ship. Zipline was interesting to watch, but I did not ride. $90 for a short how to zipline ride and 1 long ride was too steep for me. I would have liked to have ridden, but just couldn't... More
