Royal Caribbean’s New Bahamas Beach Club Will Have DJs, All-Inclusive Passes and a Cabana With Its Own Waterslide
There’s a whole new reason to get off the ship in Nassau. Starting this December, Royal Caribbean is launching a beach experience unlike anything else in the Caribbean: Royal Beach Club Paradise Island — a bold, all-inclusive escape that turns your stop in The Bahamas into a full-fledged beach day you’ll actually remember. This isn’t just a stretch of sand and a few lounge chairs. Think: two white-sand beaches, three pools, ten bars, DJ beats, floating flamingos, and a cabana with its own waterslide. Yes, really.
And you can already book it.
If your cruise hits Nassau beginning late December 2025, you can now reserve your all-inclusive pass to this exclusive Royal Caribbean playground. The beach club, first announced last year, blends Bahamian flavor and Royal Caribbean flair — complete with roundtrip water transfers from the cruise port and every kind of vibe, from family-friendly to full-on party mode.
Want laid-back luxury? Lounge by The Deep End pool with a cold Kalik in hand. Feel like turning it up? Head to The Floating Flamingo, which isn’t just the world’s largest swim-up bar — it’s also got a second-story Party Deck with DJ sets, bottle service, and nonstop poolside energy.
Hungry? You’ll find three beach grills serving Bahamian favorites and ten bars pouring everything from tropical cocktails to frozen drinks on tap. Island flavor? Check. All included? Also check.
Here’s the breakdown:
Day Pass with Unlimited Open Bar + Dining: From $169.99 (ages 21+)
Non-Alcoholic Pass + Dining: From $129.99 (13+), $109.99 (4-12), free for kids under 4
And if you’re the plan-ahead type, you can even bundle it with your onboard drink package or other Royal Caribbean excursions.
But it gets even better. If you want to make it your beach for the day, you can upgrade:
Ultimate Family Cabana: A two-story retreat with your own slide, frozen drink machine, and personal attendant. I like the sound of this one.
Luxury Cabanas (beach or poolside): Daybeds, private umbrellas, towel service, and dedicated servers.
The Party Deck: Reserve the east or west wing of this rooftop bar-meets-club for your group — perfect for bachelor parties or big birthdays.
And yes, Wi-Fi, towels, umbrellas, lounge chairs, lockers and beach games are all part of the package.
Royal Beach Club Paradise Island is only the beginning. It’s the first of several Royal Caribbean beach destinations rolling out over the next few years, from Cozumel (which is opening next year) to Perfect Day Mexico (opening in 2027).
But if you’re cruising to Nassau next year, this one’s ready to go — and it just might be the best reason yet to skip the onboard pool and hit the shore.
