how far in advance can cabanas be booked?

I've heard everything from 2 weeks to 4 months. Does anyone know if there's a real answer? Is the answer the same for booking a spa treatment?

thanks

Not sure, why not just call and find out? @:-)
Worst case they will tell you no, please call back X months in advance.
I have been able to book cabanas with over two months to go prior to departure date.

I booked my NF flights in May for Feb 2013. A quick telephone call to YouFirst the day after booking resulted in a cabana being booked. They suggested I telephone two weeks before departure to book Elemis treatment.

I saw a suggestion a week or so ago that they add a pool to the FLounge, but I assumed it was a joke. Have they now added a pool? Are these cabanas right next to it, or do you have to pay more to get the prime locations like you do in Vegas?

I have -- when I said "I've heard" that included two different calls to You First. Both times they said I was too early to book a cabana, but when I asked when I could call back to book they didn't seem to know the answer and ultimately gave me different answers. Rather than repeat the process several times more, I thought I would check with the usually helpful and knowledgeable denizens of this forum.

Interesting. That's further out than at least one of the times I called. Guess I should try calling back again. Thanks.
