Hideaway Bar Review: The Party We Needed
Introduction. Four of us on a girls trip found our home base at Hideaway Beach. The bar, the DJ, the adults-only policy—it was exactly what we were looking for. We spent most of our sea days here.
The Atmosphere
Picture a high-end beach club in Ibiza, but floating in the Caribbean. The DJ plays energetic music all afternoon, people are dancing, cocktails are flowing. It's not rowdy or out of control—just fun, lively energy.
The Drinks
Cocktails were excellent—bartenders know their craft. Our drink packages covered almost everything. The frozen drinks were perfect for the heat. Service was attentive without being pushy.
The Details
Daybeds went fast—arrive early if you want one. The pool was great for cooling off between drinks. Having a guaranteed kid-free zone made the atmosphere so much more relaxed for our group.
Conclusion
If you're sailing Icon without kids and want a party atmosphere, Hideaway is your spot. It's what makes this ship work for adults even with all the family-focused areas elsewhere. Rating: 4.5/5.
