My partner is fair skinned so is always under shade and I am out in the sun, which is why the request for the cabana so it will protect him.
Thanks in advance!!!
Sign up FPC membership.. its' free if you haven't signed up yet, and you get a discount on a cabana being an FPC member. There are regular cabanas, premium cabanas and presidential cabanas. Rates start at $50 per day up to $100+ per day and you get a bag with water and fruit, and they set up towels and cabanas for you. I think FPC gets the cabanas for $35 per day and up.

Do you have to reserve the cabana before your stay? I was there just a couple weeks ago and most cabanas weren't being used. So you could probably get away with reserving one when you arrive. But if you want a particular spot, then I suppose reserving in advance is the way to go.
Have a fun trip!
I like the point on the rocks with a premium cabana (regular cabana in a premium location).
