点评:The island was absolutely beautiful, spent much of the day at the adults only beach since this was a Disney Cruise Adult Trip on Disney Wish. A small group of us from high school who have remained lifelong friends, annually embark on a weekend getaway adventure, and this year we chose a Disney Cruise on the Wish from Port Canaveral, and a true first class experience it was in every way. Even as adults we found ourselves able to experience and feel the magic Disney provides both on land and at Sea. While the ship was beautiful this review is of our time spent at Castaway Cay one of Disneys private islands in the Bahamas, and it was absolutely beautiful. The island was beautifully manicured, not overcrowded as we were the only ship visiting, and I believe only one ship visits at a time so this really allows for it to feel like your own private paradise, and have plenty of space, and options to have a fun and exciting day. We spent out day at the adults only beach, and while quite a trek to get there the tram ride made it easy, however, two trams are required to get to there, as you had to get off at stop two, and then board another tram to go to the adult beach. While, this can provide for a small delay it was not bad and the wait was not long at all. The adult beach has plenty of chairs and umbrellas, with food and beverage service with in close distance. While the food was offered buffet style it was really good served fresh, and hot, also the steak was offered to be cooked to your preferred temperature and this was nice as some like it rare and others well done, this also ensures for you to know your meal will be served hot, and not just sitting around while you file through the line. Several BBQ offerings were available including steak, chicken, hamburgers and Hotdogs and I believe ribs too. They provide a wide array of sides including fresh cold salads, and warm dishes like potato’s, and cornbread. For desert you can find ice cream, and cookies and brownies, which is nice to be able to grab and enjoy later while you relax at the beach, I hear that the adult only BBQ Resturant, located adjacent to the adult beach area does offer better options that you can’t find at the other dining venues offered elsewhere on the island, however I can’t confirm this, but that’s what many others mentioned while waiting in line who came there to eat while their kids were busy enjoying the kids club that’s offered on the island. Again, not sure of those details, but thought that was a nice offering, that Disney provided such a service where you could check your kids into the fully staffed kids club on the island, and then have some time to enjoy the adult only amenities for a while with your other family or significant other while the kids entertained and kept busy with activities at the kids club, but we did not utilize these services while visiting, only simply heard from others they this is what they did, allowing for them to experience the island both with kids in the kids centered areas, as well as have some time to spend in the adult area, and experience that as well. We also went on the parasailing excursion while visiting, and this to me was so much fun and well with it. They allow for two to go at a time, as long as both in your party, are within the weight limits, and both my friend and I are 6ft 200lbs each and both went up together no issues at all, while I was a bit fearful, the parasail and harness etc handled us lime feathers with no problem and the view of the island and ship and water was absolutely stunning and picturesque, highly recommend taking your go pro to capture some beautiful footage, and pictures while up there, also you can leave one of your phones or cameras behind for the boat captain or staff to take your picture while going up and coming down which was nice, as they don’t offer like paid photography like you see Everywhere else on the ship for those who purchase picture packages etc. However, most of all the parasail excursion was provided on a beautiful and modern boat, life jackets and safety held at highest regard, and the parasail is in perfect condition, as well as the pulleys and harnesses etc they you will be connected to during the experience, therefore there is no reason that one should feel unsafe, or that safety was not a top priority at all time during the parasailing excursion, moreover they really do go out of their way to sure you have a pleasurable and memorable experience. I highly recommend the parasailing if you have maybe always dreamed of giving it a try, or even if you have gone several other times, you will still really enjoy it, and the view and memories made. One other tip, our parasailing was scheduled for 11am, and we got off ship at 930, ventured to adult beach with our other friends traveling with us, as we assumed we had plenty of time, however that was not the case as with the two tram rides etc, by the time we arrived to the beach all the way at other side of island it was time for us to simply turn around and head back, for our 11am excursion, therefore if doing it again I would recommend, spending time around the ship area and maybe the first tram stop, for a bit so you don’t feel rushed like in our case or nervous we would be late or miss it etc. then after the parasailing we could have then taken the tram to catch up with our friends at the adult beach. While we made the excursion we were not as early as we would have liked usually allowing for 10-15min buffer of time before scheduled excursion, as the trip to and from adult beach on tram from the ship is easily a 40-60 min process if you want to do it at a leisurely pace and not feel rushed, at least that was our thought on time management if we were doing it again. Overall beautiful island, lots to do and plenty of activities, and shopping and dining options or all to enjoy. Also, one other thing if you usually travel with a small blow up, compact mesh/ bolster raft like us, when we cruise royal, that we often enjoy using at coco cay, or other ports of call where we know we plan on spending the day at the beach, you will not have this option on Disney as they do not allow for you to bring any type of raft of your own such as the one described above as they prefer you rent theirs, for a fee and this can be arranged on the app. While they are offered I believe for 20 dollars or so and this is probably a fair, and reasonable,price point, it still would have been nice to have the option to bring your own which, we honestly inflate on a minute or two right when we get to the beach and deflate before getting back on board so there is no issue or inconvenience caused to others, however I do believe this is what they are aiming to avoid as I could see it being an issue if everyone was carrying around their rafts already inflated before hand, while not considering others around them and taking up useful space in the team etc…. So while it was a bummer not to be able to do what we usually do when cruising and traveling with our compact Amazon rafts and saving a couple dollars, you still at least have an option to rent a one if you prefer, then pickup, enjoy, and easily return it at the beach hut before you leave for the day and go back to the ship.
翻译:这个岛屿非常漂亮,由于这是迪士尼愿望号上的迪士尼游轮成人之旅,所以一天中的大部分时间都花在了成人专属海滩上。我们高中时的几个人一直是终生的好朋友,每年都会开始一次周末度假冒险,今年我们选择了从卡纳维拉尔港出发的迪士尼愿望号游轮,这在各方面都是真正的一流体验。即使作为成年人,我们也发现自己能够体验和感受到迪士尼在陆地和海上提供的魔力。虽然船很漂亮,但这篇评论是关于我们在巴哈马群岛迪士尼私人岛屿之一 Castaway Cay 度过的时光,那里真的很美。岛屿修剪得很漂亮,并不拥挤,因为我们是唯一一艘来访的船,我相信每次只有一艘船来访,所以这真的让你感觉它是你自己的私人天堂,并且有足够的空间和选择来度过有趣而令人兴奋的一天。我们在成人专用海滩度过了一天,虽然要走很长一段路才能到达那里,但乘坐电车很方便,但是需要乘坐两趟电车才能到达那里,因为您必须在第二站下车,然后乘坐另一趟电车才能到达成人海滩。虽然这可能会造成短暂的延误,但并不严重,等待的时间也不长。成人海滩有很多椅子和遮阳伞,附近有餐饮服务。虽然食物是自助餐形式,但非常新鲜,而且很热,牛排也可以根据您的喜好烹制,这很好,因为有些人喜欢半熟的,而有些人喜欢全熟的,这也确保您知道您的餐点是热的,而不是在您排队时坐着。有几种烧烤可供选择,包括牛排、鸡肉、汉堡包和热狗,我相信还有排骨。他们提供各种各样的配菜,包括新鲜的冷沙拉,以及土豆和玉米面包等热菜。至于甜点,你可以找到冰淇淋、饼干和布朗尼,当你在海滩放松的时候,可以拿来享受,真是不错。我听说,仅限成人的烧烤餐厅位于成人海滩区附近,确实提供了更好的选择,你在岛上其他地方的餐饮场所找不到这些选择,但我无法证实这一点,但这是许多人在排队时提到的,他们来这里吃饭,而他们的孩子则在岛上的儿童俱乐部里忙着玩耍。同样,我不确定这些细节,但我认为这是一个很好的提议,迪士尼提供了这样的服务,你可以让你的孩子进入岛上配备齐全的儿童俱乐部,然后有时间与你的其他家人或另一半一起享受一段时间只有成人才能享受的设施,而孩子们则可以在儿童俱乐部玩耍和参加各种活动,但我们在访问期间没有使用这些服务,只是从其他人那里听说他们就是这样做的,让他们既可以在以儿童为中心的区域与孩子一起体验岛屿,也可以在成人区域度过一些时间,并体验这一点。我们在访问期间还参加了滑翔伞之旅,对我来说,这非常有趣,而且很愉快。他们允许两个人同时上去,只要你们两个都在体重限制之内,我和我的朋友都是6英尺200磅,我们一起上去没有任何问题,虽然我有点害怕,但滑翔伞和安全带等毫无问题地把我们带到了高空,岛屿、船只和水域的景色绝对令人惊叹,风景如画,强烈建议您带上您的 go pro 来捕捉一些美丽的镜头和照片,您也可以留下您的一部手机或相机让船长或工作人员在上行和下行时为您拍照,这很好,因为他们不提供像您在船上其他地方看到的付费摄影服务,供那些购买照片套餐等的人使用。然而,最重要的是,滑翔伞之旅是在一艘漂亮而现代化的船上进行的,救生衣和安全受到最高重视,滑翔伞处于完美状态,滑轮和安全带等将在体验过程中与您连接,因此没有理由感到不安全,或者安全在滑翔伞之旅中,这并不是首要任务,而且他们确实会竭尽全力确保您拥有愉快而难忘的体验。如果您一直梦想尝试滑翔伞,我强烈推荐您尝试一下,或者即使您已经尝试过几次,您仍然会非常享受它,以及美景和难忘的回忆。另一个提示,我们的滑翔伞计划在上午 11 点进行,我们于 9:30 下船,与其他同行的朋友一起前往成人海滩,因为我们以为我们有足够的时间,但事实并非如此,因为有两次电车等,当我们到达岛另一边的海滩时,我们已经该转身回去参加 11 点的短途旅行了,因此如果再次旅行,我建议在船区和第一个电车站附近花点时间,这样你就不会像我们一样感到匆忙,或者担心我们会迟到或错过车程等。玩完滑翔伞后,我们可以乘坐电车去成人海滩与朋友们会合。虽然我们去短途旅行的时间没有我们希望的那么早,但通常会在预定的短途旅行前留出 10-15 分钟的缓冲时间,因为如果你想悠闲地旅行而不感到匆忙,那么从船到成人海滩乘坐电车很容易就需要 40-60 分钟,至少如果我们再次旅行的话,我们对时间管理是这么想的。总的来说,岛屿很美,有很多事情可做,有很多活动,还有购物和餐饮选择,可以尽情享受。此外,还有一件事,如果你通常像我们一样携带小型充气、紧凑型网状/支撑筏旅行,当我们乘坐皇家邮轮时,我们经常喜欢在可可岛或其他停靠港使用这种筏子,我们知道我们计划在这些港口度过一天,但在迪士尼你将没有这个选择,因为他们不允许您携带任何类型的筏子,比如上面描述的那种,因为他们更希望你租用他们的筏子,需要支付费用,这可以在应用程序上安排。虽然我认为它们的售价为 20 美元左右,这可能是一个公平合理的价位,但如果可以选择自带筏子就更好了,我们确实在到达海滩后一两分钟就给筏子充气,然后在回到船上之前放气,这样就不会给其他人带来问题或不便,但我相信这是他们想要避免的,因为我认为如果每个人都带着已经充气的筏子到处走,不考虑周围的人,占用团队的有用空间等,就会出现问题……因此,虽然不能像我们通常在巡航和旅行时那样使用紧凑型亚马逊筏子并节省几美元真是太遗憾了,但如果您愿意,您至少可以选择租一个,然后在离开一天并返回船上之前在海滩小屋取走、享受并轻松归还。
