Celebration Key or CocoCay? 8 Major Differences & Which One is Better
Carnival and Royal Caribbean are going head-to-head in the private destination wars. In fact, the two cruise lines operate two of the most-talked-about private spots in cruising. Royal Caribbean has CocoCay, which it transformed from a sleepy island to what's essentially a beach amusement park. That renovation kicked off an "arms race" of sorts in what's offered at private cruise islands. Carnival has responded with Celebration Key, an entirely new destination in The Bahamas complete with pools, beach, and much more. So what's the difference between the two? And which do I think you should visit? I'll cover what you need to know and having visited both, give you my take.
