First let me say the Disney Magic ship was beautiful. I have taken many cruises and I have always loved anything Disney. We did not go with any children and as I expected, there wasn't much for adults like on other cruises. They did have adult only areas which was very nice.
The shows were typical Disney, beautiful in every way. But I found one to be dark entertainment. One was all about the ...
Let me make this review nice and simple:
1. You miss your dinner: YOU ARE OUT OF LUCK! No buffet for you (thing is when you have kids chances are you will miss stuff, especially on this ship with so much to do, I mean, I get it, consistency is key for kids, but really, I mean, Really!!!)
2. You want to wake up maybe, at least, 10 minutes late on the day of arrival back at port.....?: WHAT!!! ...
We took our grandchildren on the same cruise last year. This year their ages were 10 and 7. Bothe time we booked two separate cabins one for the grandchildren and one for us. Great idea if you can afford it. We generally do not splurge when it comes to hard earned money. The rooms were booked early enough to be adjoining with an inside door connecting them. Did not get a veranda room since we felt ...
This was our 2nd Disney cruise. Our first cruise in 2007 on the Magic was spectacular and blew us away on quality of service and entertainment having many past cruises under our belts from other companies. We called Disney our 6 star cruise experience. We thought we'd try it once again now that our daughter was a little older (13 instead of 5 yrs old on the last Disney cruise). We had a blast but ...
We had 2 staterooms. My DD (4) and I were in one and my parents were down the hall. Both were verandas on deck 9, near mid-ship.
All the adults in our party have been on numerous cruises on various lines (my parents have done 60+ cruises each and I'm somewhere around 15-20). This was DD's third cruise. I had sailed on the Disney Magic 15 years ago (was my worst cruise), but none of the others had ...

Last week, I and my two sons ages 6 and 8 years embarked on our fourth Disney cruise. Despite fantastic previous experiences, this last cruise was truly our best. This review is meant to share my thoughts and experiences on Disney Cruise Line (DCL) and the Fantasy, with a focus at the end of my review on the concierge service.
This Disney Fantasy is a magnificent ...
So much has already been said in prior reviews - be sure to read them, as well as the review written by the Cruise Critic staff. I want to add a bit about traveling on a Disney cruise WITHOUT kids, as well as a word on handicapped accessibility.
I travelled with my adult daughter who is a walker/wheelchair user, on this 7 night Western Caribbean cruise - thus, two adults, no children. We love all ...
You may wonder why a person who hates television, movies, and companies like Disney would go on a Disney cruise. Don't ask. Despite my warped view, I think I can still offer a somewhat objective view of the cruise experience, but take my views with a grain of salt given the foregoing.
The Good:
1. Crew. Disney staff were extremely professional, and overall seemed to really like what they do. ...
Day 1 – Orlando (WDW Port Orleans-Riverside Resort) to Port Canaveral
Transfers and embarkation – we purchased transfers with our cruise. We received a letter in our room the night before with meeting instructions for the next morning. We had to have our luggage ready by 8:30 a.m. the morning of departure for pick up the cruise line. The DCL rep phoned morning of departure with reminder of where ...
I went solo on the Disney Fantasy for my Presidents' Week vacation and had a wonderful time! This was my third Disney cruise - the other two have been on the Dream - and 5th cruise overall. I have always been a Disney girl and part of a Disney family, so for me, the extra money is worth it for the Disney difference!
I had booked an 8B GTY and was ultimately assigned a 4E - Deluxe Stateroom with ...
