Hideaway Beach at Perfect Day at CocoCay

Hideaway Beach℠ is part of Royal Caribbean's private island destination, Perfect Day at CocoCay in The Bahamas. Much like the island itself, this adults-only slice of beachfront paradise lets guests choose between seaside relaxation far from the crowds and high-energy poolside revelry with live DJ performances and five bars. 

Hideaway Beach is also home to two restaurants — my personal favorite, Hideaway Hut, and the new Slice of Paradise℠, which serves up fresh-from-the-oven pizzas and tasty craft cocktails. Those who want to up the decadence factor can reserve a luxurious cabana, which offers privacy, gorgeous views and attendant service just steps from all the action. Ready to dive in?

1. Know Where To Go

2. Choose Your Vibe

Perfect Day at CocoCay has long been a hit among all kinds of travelers because it allows everyone to choose their own adventure — chill vibes, adrenaline-amping thrills or a mix of both. The adults-only Hideaway Beach does the same, offering tranquil areas perfect for unwinding as well as a buzzing pool scene with pulsing beats and nonstop action. 

If you really want to maximize your time here, decide what vibe you prefer ahead of your visit and claim your loungers accordingly. Seats closer to Hideaway Bar in the main pool will provide more of a party atmosphere, while those on the edges of Hideaway Beach will offer a quieter vibe (ideal for getting through that book you've been looking forward to reading).
