The Disney entertainment empire knows how to treat people right, and a Disney cruise certainly meets the high expectations developed over many decades of theme parks and media entertainment.
A leader in the family cruise segment, Disney Cruise Line operates two modern and comfortable ships, primarily on Eastern and Western Caribbean itineraries and, during the summer, to Europe.
These People Will Love Disney Cruise Line
* Fun and sun lovers: Folks who enjoy vacations that are fun and luxurious, without requiring excessive pampering, while visiting a handful of sun-drenched ports.
* Families with children: This almost goes without saying with the Disney name, but a Disney cruise vacation obviously offers plenty of excitement and entertainment for the kids.
* Adults too: Disney cruises are not just for kids, and there are sections of the ships, as well as activities, that are “adults only.”
* Anybody who wants visit Walt Disney World: The obvious tie-in with the central Florida theme park is a huge tie-in for Disney as many guests go directly from Walt Disney World.
What’s Included On Disney Cruise Line
* Good food and plenty of it: Elegant dinners, casual buffets, character breakfasts, themed deck party buffets and other exciting options make dining on a Disney Cruise Line ship a memorable experience for guests of all ages. Disney Cruise Line originated the rotation dining concept that allows guests to experience a different restaurant each evening for dinner while their servers and tablemates remain the same.
* Health club access, with cardio and weight-training equipment, although there are charges for spa sessions and instructor-led classes such as Spin, Yoga and Pilates.
* Shipboard Entertainment includes everything from comedians to cabaret singers in the clubs and lounges to live musical spectaculars stage in the large auditoriums. Disney weaves entertainment into dining and deckside activities, too.
* Youth Programs. Aboard Disney Cruise Line, it’s good to be a kid. Both ships, the Disney Magic and the Disney Wonder, have nearly an entire deck dedicated to entertaining children ages 3 months to 17 years, with each age group in its own special activity area. Parents can enjoy the ship “worry-free,” thanks to an onboard paging service that allows children to contact their parents at any time during the cruise and anywhere on the ship.
Life Aboard Disney Cruise Line
* Offers something for everyone: Of course a Disney cruise is great for the kids, but adults will enjoy enrichment programs, including a wine tasting and a behind-the-scenes peek at onboard entertainment. The Quiet Cove Pool with adjoining whirlpool spas is a haven for adults, and on the private island Castaway Cay, Serenity Bay is just for adults with a private beach, open-air bar, couples’ hammocks and even private massage cabanas.
