This was our 8th cruise with DCL and our best yet! Everything (yes, everything!) was clean, in excellent condition, gorgeous, and comfortable. The crew from Captain Henry to the maintenance to stewards and all were friendly, engaging, and performed their duties with a smile. The food was plentiful, fresh, and well prepared - and delicious!

We arrived at the terminal (Disney's own) a little early (9:45 a.m.) and after a brief wait (other passengers were still disembarking), we quickly cleared security and were checked in. Our boarding number was 6 and we were on the ship by 11:45. We were invited to dine at Cabanas (top deck, aft, buffet dining) but chose to wait until the Enchanted Garden (deck 2, midship) opened and left full of delicious shrimp, stone crab, soup, and all kinds of great food (including fantastic ice cream for dessert).

Our stateroom was ready at 1:30 (our was deck 9, all the way forward, starboard) which was a family oceanview - large porthole, extra length (compared to regular ocean view rooms) and was very comfortable for the 3 of us - our grown son was able to go with us. He slept on a murphy bed which was directly next to the porthole and we had a queen bed - all were very comfortable! Our cabin steward, Pornchai, was amazing - he knew us each time we passed him and was always quick to make sure we were happy and willing to help with anything we needed. He kept our room immaculate and well stocked - including the cute towel animals and evening chocolates! Read more
