The private destination in Haiti is known as Labadee, and it is exclusively leased by Royal Caribbean Group. While the land is technically a peninsula on Haiti's northern coast and not a standalone island, it is managed as a private, fenced-off resort for the use of Royal Caribbean International and its sister brand, Celebrity Cruises. Royal Caribbean has held a long-term lease with the Haitian government since 1986, contributing significantly to the local tourism revenue. The resort is designed as a secluded tropical paradise, featuring pristine beaches like Dragon's Tail Beach, coral reefs, and the famous Dragon's Tail Coaster and zipline. To ensure guest safety and exclusivity, the site is separated from the surrounding areas and protected by a private security force. It is capable of hosting the massive Oasis-class ships at its dedicated pier. While it provides a "private island" experience, it remains a vital economic link for the local Haitian merchants who are permitted to sell their goods within a controlled marketplace inside the resort boundaries.
