Headed for a cruise from the Los Angeles cruise port (World Cruise Center) or the Port of Long Beach? You’re likely looking for a hotel near the cruise terminals, and that’s a smart idea.

Imagine this scenario: It’s the day of your cruise, you wake up early, head to the airport and check in. You’re at your gate with plenty of time to spare. And then you see the words no flyer wants to see: delayed.

Therefore the channel listings below should give you an idea of what’s available, but could be different from what you see on your cruise.

What to Know

Half Moon Cay is one of the most popular Bahamas private islands you can visit, and it is easy to see why. It is owned by Carnival Cruise Line, but it is visited seasonally by Holland America as well. To get there, you will have to book with one of these cruise lines and be prepared to ride a tender boat to shore, as there isn’t a port to dock at on this wild island. With pristine beaches and untouched nature, there is quite a bit to do at Half Moon Cay.

Visit The Bahamas Private Island Beach

Maybe this goes without saying, but it wouldn’t be a trip to a Bahamas private island without some quality time on the beach. Half Moon Beach is over a mile of soft, white sand that wraps around a gorgeous cerulean bay, creating the moon shape that gives the
