We choose this cruise because we heard so much about how Disney cruising is the best of the best and sets the standard for all,other cruise lines, as well as it being a Merry Christmastime cruise.That being said, while it was a very nice ship and a wonderful cruise, it was not the ‘be all, end all’ of cruising.
The 3 Disney shows were very entertaining but the juggler and the ventriloquist ...
This was my first Disney Cruise and in the beginning I expected it to be amazing. Again, Disney exceeds my expectations with amazing and friendly service, outstanding and unbelievable entertainment, and special Disney magic that you can’t find anywhere else. Let’s start off with the food. It was the best food I’ve ever eaten in my life! The room service was great, the buffet was a mile long and ...
Our 26 family members have been planning this cruise for over a year . My wife and I sail with Celebrity Aqua twice a year, so are used to fabulous food and over the top service, others had sailed RCCL, and one Silversea. But for most of us, this was our first Disney. I think to sum it up, they have a very devoted following, so they don’t try as hard to please as other lines. Embarkation was slow. ...
Here are 10 Quick Things You need to know
1. This ship is over 20 years old and it shows. From rusty spots on the balconies to musty smells in the rooms, this ship is definitely showing it's age.
2. The dinner food is mediocre. It's served lukewarm because they're serving hundreds of people at once so chances are your food was waiting to be delivered to your table while they got all the ...
This was my 11th cruise and my first time with Disney. I thought the ship was smooth, I hardly felt it moving. I did not feel as if we were over crowded with children and I enjoyed the characters and shows. I loved the fact that there was no a casino on the ship and I did not have to smell the awful smoke. I loved the decor and it seemed the staff was not over worked or cranky. Since my family ...
This cruise was basically the third change we had to make to our vacation plans thanks to work schedule. We originally booked our cruise with Allure of the Seas, but watching too many videos of that ship I had the impression that the Oasis-class ships are nothing but mere floating malls in the ocean - no theme, no character. We wanted a cruise that was going to be memorable before I head to a long ...
I enjoyed the family atmosphere. I always felt safe onboard and on shore excursions. I love that more is included and there were fewer add-on charges. If it were the only cruise line I have experienced I may not noticed how much extra service is included. One example would be shore excursions. On other lines I’ve just been given the vague instruction to line up on the dock. On Disney they send you ...
First Disney Cruise, 3rd cruise overall, first time Concierge service, ship was in great shape since it's the 1st one to sail. Will be very hard if we sail again not to get Concierge service. Our Concierge team of Alina, Emannela and Nicky were fantastic, there for every need. Our Serving team of Hilash Harinath, Cornel Besoi and Dumitru Cabut were all great and finally our stateroom host Flore ...
Our family just returned from our second cruise on the Disney Dream and it was juast as amazing as our first! This was the first Very Merrytime Cruise and the ship was near capacity. We had an 11:45am arrival time, but actually made it there by 10:45am. The line to get through the initial ID check was short and the security line was not bad (maybe 10-15 minute wait). Once we went upstairs, the ...
We have been on many cruises but this one had a lot to complain about:
No free desserts in the evening - you need to pay extra (and not cheap)
Limited variety of food offered at dinner
Food quality below other cruise standards
No pool for adults to swim - just a wading pool
Limited activities for children not yet out of diapers
Entertainment geared strictly for young kids (over ...
