Disney Cruise Line?

We were thinking about going on the DCL next year. I heard it was really fun. There are so many different crusies to choose from!Which cruise do you recommend? We want to stay more than 4 days. Also how is the food on the cruise? How are the rooms on the cruise? Thanks! I really appreciate it!Disney Cruise Line?
We just got back from our first DCL cruise on the 5th. We had a blast. We did 3 days land and 4 day cruise. We picked the 4 day cruise because it was our first cruise. Our next one will be longer!



We stopped at Castaway Cay, Nassau, and again at Castaway Cay. We normally were able to get off the ship at about 8:30 am and needed to be back by 5:00pm. So you do get time to explore the ports.



The food was very good in the restaurants (the sit down meals in the evenings) The buffet was so so for breakfast. Nothing special just typical breakfast items. The snack places were good for a quick bite, which we did often.



We had two inside state rooms for us. The two of us in one and our two teen aged daughters in the other. There would have been no way to have four in the type of room we had!

The cabins are well designed and spacious, but would have been very crowded. We know that we would have gone for a different cabin if we all were in one.



The entertainment at night was very good. 3 shows were Disney productions, one night was a comedian. He started out ok then crash and burned at the end. From what I understand that 3rd night changes so I don't know what it would be on your cruise.



Lots to do on the ship, we wished we would have had a day at sea to do more of it. Played bingo one afternoon and won 118 bucks. Cost 29 bucks to play



I would suggest investigaiting the different cruises Disney offers, they have quite a few and will be adding more in 2010 and 2011 when their 2 new ships are ready to sail.



Have fun! You won't be disappointed
I've been on several cruises and Disney is by far the best.

Choose the cuirse based on the places you ant ot see because, yes, you get off the ship at each port and you can spend the entire day in that country.

The food is outstanding as is the service. Rooms are small on cruises but Disney's are a little bigger than most. \

Have a great time!!Disney Cruise Line?
Our 2nd DCL trip is scheduled for this summer. It is so much fun! We do the 7 Day Land and Sea vacation, spending 4 days at Animal Kingdom Lodge and 3 days on the ship. It visits Castaway Cay and Nassau, You could also choose the 4 days at sea and 3 days on land package which gives you an extra day at sea. The Veranda rooms are super with a private balcony. Go online and check out rates and the ships layout. Midship is always best and at least level 5 or up. It is more expensive (about $2,000 pp) than the traditional cruises but well worth the price. Have fun.
yeah, when the ship stops somewhere, you can get off and explore that area. Just remember to be back by the time they want you back or else they might just leave you there.
Disney is the best. People go who don't even have children. They go above and beyond to make your vacation memorable.



We did the 7-day Western Caribbean. We did not go to Cozumel due to a hurricane having hit there, so we went to Costa Maya and Grand Cayman, then Castaway Cay. The best part of the trip was Castaway Cay. We had such a blast. If I were to recommend the cruise of my choice, it would be the one with two stops to Castaway Cay - but that one is booked quickly.



We stayed in Category 11, which is the bottom of the ship. You get less movement being near the bottom and you are not in your room enough to care about it being quite small, but it suited myself, my husband and our 3 year old well. The only complaint I had about that was when there is any music playing in a restaurant or night club, you will hear it. You also hear the motors of the ship going, but you get use to that. You can also spend more money and move up on the ship - but then you're more likely to have motion sickness more towards the top of the ship.



Food is everything to my husband. He was in heaven on the ship - especially when they brought him two lobsters one night. I had a few misses in my meals, but was altogether satisfied with it.



Their shows are unbelievable. I got goose bumps every time I watched one. That was my favorite part of the boat. You will be able to get off at every port of call and just walk around or you can book excursions. We did a lot of looking around because we had a 3 year old and didn't have many choices of excursions with her.



There is so much to do and you will not be bored. My daughter constantly talks about wanting to go on one again - but they are not cheap. Disney's line is one of the most expensive, but I thought it was worth every penny!
