If you’re a true Disney fan, you must set sail on a Disney Cruise at least once in your life! Once you embark, you’re guaranteed the finest service and amenities. Simply put- it’s the best around!
I was a little skeptical when we boarded our first cruise, thinking I'd disembark a few days later tired and ready for the routine of home. Boy was I wrong. Once you board a Disney Cruise ship all the travails of transportation, planning, packing, keeping track of the kids is over. In fact, the childcare alone on Disney ships is epic and will have your offspring begging to be dropped off to play while you lie by the adults-only pool. Each evening at dinner my 11 year old ate in a hurry so she could go back to the pre-teen area for a dance-off or other supervised activity. Don't get me wrong, I love visiting Disney parks but they're not exactly relaxing. A Disney cruise however is all the magic of the parks with none of the exhaustion!
In addition to the above, here are 10 reasons why a Disney Cruise is totally worth your money. Read on for the full skinny!
All-You-Can-Eat Buffet
If you’re craving something sweet or savory at any point throughout the day, head over to Cabanas. This all-you-care-to-eat buffet serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner. There are a variety of food stations here, which can accommodate all tastes. Most of the food here is made-to-order, which is convenient for all types of guests. The food here is delicious and there’s certainly no shortage!
Spacious Staterooms
Most cruise lines are known for having small staterooms, but not Disney! A standard room has plenty of amenities which include wave phones, an in-room safe, a TV, and plenty of space, just to name a few. You will never feel cramped in this space. Guests can also request a suite with a verandah overlooking the beautiful ocean. The subtle nautical Disney theme make the rooms feel like a home away from home.
Stage Shows
You don’t have to travel all the way to New York City to see amazing Broadway shows. Each Disney Cruise has its own variety of original shows with catchy songs, skilled performers, and elaborate set design. Show times vary each day, but there are multiple performances of each one, so chances are you won’t miss out. Each one is as enjoyable as the next and geared towards families.
