Just returned from a sailing on the Disney Magic on it's 3-night Bahamas itinerary (Port Canaveral - Nassau - Castaway Cay - Port Canaveral). The 3-night cruise is a nice introduction to someone new to cruising, it gives you a flavor but leaves you wanting more.

We had started our vacation at the Walt Disney World resort and took the cruiseline transfer to the port. This went without a hitch and we arrived at the port about 1:30 PM with time to explore the ship before getting underway. The timing also worked out well as the staterooms were ready upon our arrival to stow our day bags. Check-in was a breeze, we had completed online check-in in advance so it was a simple process of showing the signature documents and obtaining our cardkeys.

Upon arrival in the stateroom we noticed 2 negatives. First there was food from a prior occupant in the refrigerator (2 unopened milks and a yougart). We also noticed dust and some hairs along the top of the baseboards in the bathroom. Otherwise the stateroom appeared clean. Stateroom 6588 is configured with a queen sized bed and a sofa that converts to a bed. There is no pull-down bed so the cabin is suited to a party of 3. The veranda was a decent size and was a delite to sit out on. There were some minor mechanical issues with the toilet where once each day it wouldn't flush. However it seemed to sort itself out before the maintenance staff arrived.
