Disney Dream

The Disney Dream is outstanding!!! We sailed on the Dream to Bermuda during a Halloween on the High Seas cruise. There is so much to see from the moment you step on board. A part of the trip that I really enjoyed, that most other cruises do not do, is rotational dining. There are three main dining rooms aboard the ship (Animator's Palette, Royal Palace, and Enchanted Garden), and each night for dinner you go to one of them and rotate between the three every night. Each night has a different menu, too! Every day, one of the three restaurants is open for lunch or breakfast, too, as well as Cabanas, the buffet. There are also plenty of activities for all ages throughout each day, so there is always something to do! These include crafts, games, cooking classes, character meet and greets, and so much more!!! Another highlight of the trip was Pirate Night fireworks at sea! The kids' clubs on board also offer lots of activities that are super fun! There are also pools and a water coaster on the top deck, as well as quick spots to grab a bite to eat, like chicken fingers, pizza, or unlimited soft serve ice cream! They also have a movie theater on board, showing first-run disney movies as well as a theater that performs Broadway style shows at night! The Disney Dream is so much fun, and I would definitely recommend it!

A great experience for fans of Disney, or for families looking for a more kid-friendly experience (without casinos or cruise drunks), but lacking in high quality food and the events were difficult to book when competing with gold/platinum members. This was our very first cruise ever and overall it was an excellent experience. We did a 5 night Bahamian cruise with port of calls at Cozumel and Castaway Cay. The booking experience was fairly easy. The main advice we have is to have your photos ready in advance, then book all of your events when they open to you. Do this as early as possible as the events fill up extremely quickly, especially the character meets (Royal Gathering) or luxury cabanas on the island. We organized a Disney shuttle to and from the airport and ... it was shockingly disappointing. We were expecting a Disney theme bus (like the Mickey train at Tokyo Disneyland) but we were greeting with a normal coach bus. The Everglades Port was extremely efficient and well staffed, and we were boarding the ship within 30 minutes of arriving at the port. The Disney Dream is a magnificent ship that's in excellent condition, maintained daily, and visibly washed down at every port. The amount of cleaning and work that's being done on the ship before, during and after our cruise was impressive, and we could not find a speck of dust nor spot of rust anywhere onboard. The service onboard was world-class and represents the Disney brand. It's a cruise experience that really does focus on the Disney magic, with kids becoming princes and princesses, and enough character meet-and-greets to last a lifetime. The staff will remember your food preferences, and rooms service is done 2-3 times a day. We had the navigator's veranda room on deck 5, port side. The room was close to elevators making it very convenient to get around the ship. The activities onboard were amazing, with several pools on deck 11 and 12, a kiddie water slide, and their main attraction; the AquaDuck. Wait times for AquaDuck varied between 15 minutes to 30 minutes, and it was a very fun ride for younger kids. Adults could relax in the adult area with a hot tub and pool, and there was a very quiet deck 13 that was almost always empty. For our cruise, the movies included Mufasa, Inside Out 2, and Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes. The live shows (Golden Mickeys, Magic Show with Jon Armstrong, Beauty and the Beast, and Believe!) were all phenomenal. Especially the production value for Beauty and the Beast completely blew us away. The cruise also hosted several large scale events in the main atrium including a dance party with all the characters, royal gatherings with the princesses, live music, and the "see you real soon" finale. As this was our first cruise, we opted not to do any excursions and enjoy the port of calls as they were. Cozumel is a charming seaside town with many restaurants and shops. There is a very strong haggle culture, so be prepared. Castaway Cay was an incredibly gorgeous island that was impeccably kept. There were enough benches and resting areas, and the entire beach front was clean and in perfect condition. The one big issue with this cruise was the food. Seeing so many food reviews of Disney cruises and all the high praise it gets, we were quite disappointed with the quality of the food. While everything was expertly plated and presented, the flavours and quality of ingredients just wasn't there. Cabanas had incredibly quantity and offerings, but the quality was pretty mid. Similarly, the dining offerings for all 3 meals (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) were all pretty mediocre. I understand there are limitations for how food is prepared on a cruise ship, but perhaps my expectations were skewed by all of the youtube reviews we watched. Overall, we highly recommend Disney Cruise line for families with young children (age 3-10) to really maximize the Disney magic.

Cruising on the Disney dream was such a wonderful experience. The crew staff was amazing. The only thing I didn’t like was having to fight for pool side chairs. We dined at Remy.

Overall Rating:▪️▪️▫️▫️▫️ Recommend： ▪️▫️▫️▫️▫️ Dining: ▪️▪️▪️▫️▫️ Entertainment： ▪️▪️▫️▫️ The ship was clean and well organized. The Disney Cast Members were friendly and very accommodating. That's the good part. The rest...not so good. Let's start with all adult activity was poor and cheap. Most of the activity was around alcohol and drinking, and basically that's it. I don't like following their app to make activities b coz my fancy activities overlap with my dinner time. There fixed time for dinner and which restaurant. Every time overlap.... It was so bad, we're not coming back. Paid a lot to just be don't count on any activities! Super boring! #disneydreamcruise #disneydream #Disney

Our first cruise, and now we're hooked. The cast members and crew are amazing, and work so hard to keep the ship spotless and everyone happy. It felt like what Disney World was like five years ago, before curs started being made. Shockingly good food, with the exception of Cabanas buffet (but it's a buffet, so I probably shouldn't be as hard on it). Our room was quiet, and the bed was insanely comfortable. If you can swing it, get a verandah room. Already planning our next cruise, and would love to do this ship again.

Sailing on the Disney Dream cruise ship was a wonderful experience. The kids had all kinds of things to do in kids club and sports. The adults had fun as well even had a whiskey tasting! The food and service was outstanding. We sailed during Halloween and it was so much fun!

Best trip ever met a really nice friend there now we're bffs

What a great experience! We can't say enough about the days and the time we spent on the #disneydream. Once we arrived at the terminal and got past the testing portion and were clear to board we were all set to begin the fun! That process was quick and pretty easy for the most part, but if you weren't computer inclined or confused about some things it could have been pretty frustrating. The onboard Welcoming Family Celebration was nice that was about the only wait we had to endure once we boarded the ship besides waiting for our rooms and the emergency drill, 2hich consisted of making sure you had the app downloaded and that you could fi d your location in case of an emergency. Once that was confirmed you were good to go. Then the fun really began because we then headed straight to the pool area. The staff I can't say enough about each and every person on this ship! I love the dedication they had for all the guests from the dining to the safety of everyone on board that I experienced over and over again! I loved the shifting of the pool areas gives everyone an opportunity to enjoy the amenities of the ship. I loved the character interactions. I just didn't agree with not letting you remove your mask quickly for a quick pic though you were at a six feet distance. Maybe they'll revise it in the near future, before we return. I loved the ship capacity it wasn't overly crowded. It was quite perfect! I didn't get to experience more of the adult situations around the ship, but I made sure that my son experienced all that was offered for him. Next time we'll go for lo get and we'll be joined by more ppl so I will be able to enjoy more of the adult offerings. I can't say enough about. Amandia & Nada. They took care of us each day without complaint that we saw! They made sure that our pickyselves were feed and we had something that we desired. They were accomodating in everyway possible. I have not one complaint. We even left with my son eating more than fries and hashbrowns I was really thankful for that❤ And of course, our turndown service was just amazing! #Dewa:Nigeria made our room look untouched daily❤ The only complaint I have is that we didn't stay longer, but we didn't leave without reserving our next one. #theedge #Cara ❤ #landandsea #disneydream #universal #magickingdom #50thanniversaycelebration #disneycruiseline #fireworks 🎆 #donaldspool #royalpalace #animatorspalate #beautyandthebeast #pinkelephant #enchantedgardens  #castawaycay #edge #mickandminniemouse #pluto #aquaduck #vanellopessweet&treats #roomservice #queensstairs #paradiseisland #Atlantis #bahamas 🇧🇸 #lightninglane #genieplus #disneyworld50 #universalhollywood #disneysprings #ineedavacationfrommyvacationwetired #88°hightoday 😆🦄🎢🎡🚢🛫🧳🌞⛱️🎟

Took a trip on the Disney Dream this summer on one of their Mediterranean cruises that sailed throughout Europe. This is our third DCL cruise, but first time on the Disney Dream. Everything from the details of the ship, its offerings, the food, entertainment, and the amazing Cast Members made the trip memorable. One of our favorite ships and sailings so far. Although there's a lot that could be said about the Disney Dream, I'll highlight some of my family's standout experiences. The restaurants and food were fantastic in terms of taste and quality. The serving staff were top notch and the overall ambiance of the restaurants were themed well. We never left hungry. The live shows were excellent. You cannot miss their rendition of Beauty and the Beast. Unlike anything you've experienced, even for those who visit the parks frequently. The onboard activities and entertainment were fun, plentiful, and diverse. They were all brought to life by the amazing cast members to make each activity memorable. Our experience on the Disney Dream and sailing throughout Europe was everything we could have imagined and more with a sprinkle of Disney magic and quality woven in. I would highly recommend this ship out of any port as the CMs/crew on this trip really bring the magic to your vacation. There is something to enjoy for guests of all ages.

The Disney Dream was established January 26, 2011. This ship is 40% larger than the Disney Wonder and Disney Magic, with two additional decks and 1,250 staterooms. Each Inside stateroom has a "virtual" porthole showing rolling waves and Disney characters swimming by all in HD. One of the most popular features is the first ever water roller coaster at sea - the Aqua Duck is 250 yards of transparent tubing that sends guests soaring over the top decks and at one point - over the ocean! The Disney Dream offers a variety of itineraries, mainly sailing to the Caribbean and The Bahamas. Halloween on the High Seas: Discover magical mischief and spellbinding surroundings as you commemorate Halloween at sea. This spook-tacular experience is available on most itineraries departing late September through Halloween. Thrills and chills await you at every turn, thanks to not-so-scary activities, eerie entertainment and bewitching décor--including a magical Halloween tree. Halloween activities and offerings are subject to change and vary by ship and itinerary. Unearth frightfully fun entertainment during these festive cruises: Mickey's Mouse-querade Shiver in delight during a scare-a-bration with some of your favorite Disney Pals bedecked in their Halloween finest. Don your ghoulish best and join in the fun! Themed Character Meet and Greets Encounter Disney characters cloaked in ghostly garb--including Minnie Mouse, Daisy Duck and Clarabelle Cow dressed as the iconic Sanderson sisters, from the movie Hocus Pocus. Halloween Activities Conjure some creepy crafts for the entire family. Spine-Tingling Treats Enjoy unique Halloween-themed desserts, beverages and trick-or-treating! Even more spooky surprises await you on board! Be sure to pack your favorite costumes and get ready for happy haunts. Cheers

It is the best, the best, the best, the best, the best, and here's why: One. you get to go to the loyal palace, and have a fancy cactus dinner second of all the way there's a very funny just meet you gonna be this one and you're gonna love him. It is amazing you should take the screws you'll be jumping when you get to the port. all the food is free dinner is free ice cream is free. You can even get a giant beast for free I know for free and that's why I rated five stars. It should be five stars at five stars and a half I like it! they have a big party when the book takes off I mean there's a little turbulence when you take off yeah you feel on a ship rocking by this time I just made my first night of the cruise and so far it's been amazing. Trust me I think this is the cruise for you! There's 1 million people here and don't get me started on the characters of characters walking around Iyce of stitch, and so many Disney princesses, and then there's a show yes a show and I am loving it. There is three restaurants enchanted Garden royal palace, and I don't know the other one I know is that I'm living a shipand you should totally get on again I think this is the ship for you!

Well let me just say... DISNEY DREAM CRUISE LINE ... you just gained a 10 star rating as far as I'm concerned. I just returned from my cruise for the first time & I must say they have exceeded my expectations. From the moment I boarded until I stepped on to customs . Everything about this ship is nothing but amazing. The family experiences were truly incredible. And please don't get me started about the fooooood‍ ‼ If you haven't gone yet, you better start saving & booking. Disney dream.... You rock

4th DCL sailing and it was just as good as the others. We sailed in a Concierge Level Room which gave us access to their lounge and all the extra perks provided by the three concierges on-board. I highly recommend this level if it fits your budget as you get priority to booking excursions including the coveted cabanas on Castaway Cay. This ship and the "Fantasy" are identical and are the newer of the four current ships in the fleet. Wonder and Magic are the older ships and definitely don't have as many bells and whistles. Must Do: Aqua Duck Waterslide Mini-Golf Beauty and the Beast Show Pirates in the Caribbean Show

Took my granddaughters on this very expensive cruise and it was not at all what we expected. The television in the room is very small, there is no water to drink inside cabin, the ship rocks and makes noises all night (regardless of cabin size). On the positive side the bed is comfortable and practical in that you can store the luggage under it. Pillows are decent. Cabin has nice size bathroom with separate toilet area and a plus is that they have good security measures for the kids safety. That being said the food is HORRIBLE, the choices are poor in dining room (except for the fact that they have shrimp and snow crab legs) . Could not cook the fried eggs sunny side up or soft the entire trip. They don't have a dessert table and the choices for dessert are poor. The oatmeal sits on a glass bowl instead of a heated pot thus becomes uneatable. The only good food we ate was a brunch at Palo. Palo had great service and delicious food but it is a private restaurant and costly. Barely the Disney characters walked around and you had to make lines for everything to do with them. Never again.

Great ship, similar in many way to the Disney Magic, just bigger with a few more things to do. Although the cruise director on the Magic was way better then the one on the Dream, the people and the service are top notch. The restaurant staff went above and beyond to prepare vegan dishes for my wife. Some of them were so good I wanted them. Although the food and the entertainment was great a couple the things to comment about. The soda fountain, there is Luigi's quick service restaurant is on one end of deck 11 and the soda fountain, is on the other end. The other thing is there is no carbonate water on any of the fountains and if you try to get it from the bars they want to charge you as if you were ordering alcohol. There's so much to do. Thank God for the kids club, it allowed us to to spend alone time in the adult areas on the ship and to use the uncrowded adult areas on Castaway Cay. We all ready put a deposit for our next cruise, we just have to decide Miami or Cape Canaveral.

We weren't sure the Disney Dream Cruise was going to be right for us, as we're two grandads taking our 3 grandchildren, daughter & son-in-law on a cruise. Would it be too focused on the kids? Would we be bored or sidelined? We had a great time! There were so many activities that there was no chance of being bored. The biggest problem was that there weren't enough hours in the day. We had dinner each night with the family & saw them occasionally during the day, which worked well. We often joined everyone else to have our photos taken with a character--lots of princesses as well as Mickey & Minnie & Donald etc. As for activities on our own, we LOVED going parasailing! We also went to the tropical garden in Nassau & on a tour of the ship about design elements & "imagineering." We went to one of the lounges to hear a classical violinist too. The biggest surprise to us was how many of our fellow passengers were adults traveling without children. I'd estimate about a third of the passengers fit into this category.

Our first cruise ever and what can I say... Nothing short of amazing. We booked last minute and got a great deal on a verandah room. Disney magic in full swing. Wait and room staff top notch. Food was much better than expected. Kids club out of this world. Castaway Cay outstanding. Only real issue is the other people on the ship. Not everyone but enough. Just saying respect and kindness go a long way. With that said it didn't stop us from drinking the Kool-Aid and booking a new cruise.

I've Cruise on the Disney Dream times. I have been on other cruises, this is the best and my favorite of the other Disney ships I've been on. The check-in process is quick and pain-free. I would heavily recommend getting the picture package if you are like my family and like to get pictures taken with the characters and your family in general. With the picture package, you get all the pictures taken by the Disney photographers, this is well worth the money in my view. We try got the Family Suite with Verandah, this room sleeps four comfortably and the view from the balcony was awesome. Our Stateroom Host ensures your room is always clean and that we had sufficient towels and blankets. The food in the Disney Dream restaurants is second to none, I would compare it to fine cuisine. Everything we had was perfectly cooked and presented, service was also very quick, very friendly and attentive to our needs. They always make excellent recommendations for food and it did not disappoint us. The one time I did have an issue with the server I informed the Head Server he was very attentive in getting it fixed, and came by our table every night to ensure everything was top notch as he would accept nothing less. The island Castaway Cay always made our cruise experience. We left the ship about an hour after they started to let people off and had no issues finding chairs with umbrella on the family beach. We got our snorkeling gear and went out to explore. Very fun, plenty of fish and surprises under the water to see. In my view, Castaway Cay was the highlight of our experience. Overall my family and I loved the Disney Cruise experience. From the shows to the customer service, everything on the Disney Cruise was perfect. Though it is on the higher end of cruise prices, the staff attention, shows, food and customer service make it more than worth the price. And if you haven't type Palo brunch you don't know what you're missing. Eccellente!!

First Disney cruise ever and I must say that I LOVED IT!!!!! I sailed out of Cape Canaveral, Fl, Three (3) day to Nassau Bahamas and Castaway Cay, with a 5 year old and a 12 year old, stayed in stateroom #7078 with a verandah. First off let me start off by saying that Disney Cruise Line provided TOP NOTCH SERVICE! They make sure that you have a "Magical" time during your stay. I can't explain how the staff was so nice and pleasant, everyone was so helpful from the moment we arrived. The ship itself was very clean and well kept. I couldn't even find lint on the carpet LOL! The food was AMAZING throughout the entire cruise, for dinner you rotate everyday between 3 restaurants, and the food was delicious at every single one. My waiters Atmaya (from indonesia) and Jenema (from Serbia) were excellent, they made our dining experience fantastic. The characters were all in character at all times, nice, beautiful, and the costumes were all well kept, worth the wait to meet them. The crew ship members really go out of their way to put on a full production, i highly recommend DCL for all of your vacation needs, i'm saddened that I only get to rate them 5 stars, when they are really a 10 star ship. Enjoy the pictures :)

This was our 4th Disney cruise in the past 10 years and the second time on the Dream. We actually like the two smaller ships better than the bigger ones but this time it was a little different. It was supposed to be a short 3 day Bahama cruise to celebrate my Dad's 75th birthday and my brother's family, as well as my dad, fly down from NJ. None of them have ever been on a cruise before. Well this was the weekend that Dorian was supposed rip through Florida all the way to Tampa. We figured we would have to evacuate anyway so why not? Disney did offer to refund the tickets or apply it to a future cruise but if Disney was Ok with sailing so were we. The night before we get an email stating the Bahamas were out and we would sail to Cozumel instead and arrive back a day later. The day of the cruise was simple to check in and get on. Later we found out 1500 cancelled their trip so the ship was much more relaxing, no lines, no crowds, no fuss. After we got to Cozumel and Dorian was still hovering over the Bahamas we were told we would go instead to Grand Cayman as it was not safe to head back to Port Canaveral and we would be two days out at sea. So this 3 days cruise turned into a 6 day cruise not no extra out of pocket expense (except for all the extra booze we had to buy), even the parking at the port was for only three days. The tips were only calucated for 3 days as well although we more than doubled it for the fanatastic service we received. My dad loved it and my brother's family were more than pleased that it did not feel overly Disneyfied. This is my favorite cruise line, even of I did not have kids I would prefer this cruise line. Cheap -no, worth it - yes!

Our trip was fantastic! Our previous cruises, before baby, were with a line that's geared toward adults so I didn't know what to expect. We chose a three day cruise with our 8 month-old boy to test the waters on how he would do on a ship. He did wonderfully and I know it's in part to how well prepared they are in dealing with children and families. First, they make the vacation as smooth as possible. Staterooms ready pretty much as soon as you get on the ship. And, when you enter the ship it is immediately apparent how beautiful and well-appointed it is. Mostly done in a Deco-inspired theme. This was A Merrytime Cruise so it was decked out in stunning holiday regalia. We also had the stateroom decorated in Finding Dory memorabilia. Our boy had a look of wonder on his face seeing the streamers, character blanket, pillow and wall decals. Worth every penny. Everything was on point! The breakfast buffet was a bit better than on the other cruise line we're used to. Even the scrambled eggs were delicious. The Beauty & The Beast show was excellent, dinner each night was lovely and our "date night" on the ship was perfection. We selected Palo and made use of the It's a Small World Nursery. Palo was amazing...a true fine-dinning experience with doting service. We stopped in Nassau, which we've visited before, and Castaway Cay that was entirely new to me. Our boy is young so we skipped Atlantis and went on a horse buggy ride, did a little shopping and eating. Castaway Cay was even better. I loved seeing our boy in the ocean for the first time and watching him crawl in the sand. We took him back to the nursery and came back for the fabulous BBQ lunch and a little wandering. On the last night we got a little package from the nursery that included footprint artwork from our little boy. One with his feet as mistletoe, another with his footprint as a reindeer and one as a Christmas Tree. Adorable. I didn't want to leave.

What a great vacation. My mom planned a family cruise for our entire family and we absolutely had a blast. Like most things Disney we experienced awesome customer service. Great amenities and really good food. My favorite was the morning Mickey waffles and ice cream. I think we had too much ice cream but loved it. I would definitely recommend especially for big family's.

Wow what a cruise. A longer review will come soon. All i can say is that the Disney Dream was one of the best cruises I've ever been on! Amazing service delicious food and tons of fun activities!

Our Castaway Cay first time experience was ruin at the last minute without prior notification. After calling Disney Cruise line before sailing and been told that everything on the island was perfect our day at the Castaway was cancelled while we were at the ship. They took our day to deliver supplies to the island and we spend the day inside the ship.

We went on the Merrytime Christmas Cruise on the Dream. We absolutely LOVED IT!!! The only bad part was that it was only 3nights. The booking process was very easy. I loved going online and checking the account. If you decide to sign up for activities online definitely do it the first day available. Otherwise do it as soon as you can on the boat which is around 1pm. Our boarding time was 11:00-11:15. We arrived at 11:20 and went right on the boat. Of course after checking in and getting our key to the world card. When we got on the boat we decided to eat at Cabanas vs. the sit down restaurant. We liked it. The staff is amazing they are all so helpful. The food selection was GREAT! I'm a picky eater and I always found something to eat. Cabanas was very crowded so we had seats by the pool. Those seats where totally fine. There is ALWAYS something to do on the boat. This was our first cruise ever. I was the only one to get motion sickness the first day. I took the medicine and I was fine. I didn't get too sick. I think my body just had to get used to not being on land. My daughter threw up the second night but that was due to eating so much lol. When we had our dinners we always had the same team with us. They get to know you . It's awesome when they know your drink order or if you like bread or not. They pay attention to the small things that make people happy. The food was always good . If you see something from another restaurant that you are not dining in you can still order it. Also we ordered bacon one time and it wasn't even on any of the menus. They definitely aim to please. The room attendant's are AMAZING!!! The man we had always gave us helpful tips everyday. He always had a smile on his face as well. We stayed in a Navigator Verandah with a obstructed view. The view was amazing we have no complaints. We actually were able to see where the cruise boat was operated. Both the bed and couch are VERY comfortable. There were three of us in our room so we had plenty of space. I organized everything of course. I loved Castaway Cay . The food was good in the family section. It was cookout food burgers ect. I didn't get to make it over to the adult section. I will definitely do that on our next trip. I heard there were more options of food there. Like I said there was so much to do so I didn't get to stay off the boat for too long. The shows were amazing!!! I LOVED Beauty and The Beast. Also we saw Believe which was also very good. The first night was Golden Mickey and out of all three this came in last. I loved it but not like the other two shows. Also they had a great selection of Disney movies to watch on the cruise. My son is 17 and he LOVED VIBE which is amazing because he doesn't like much lol. My daughter is younger so she just liked the clubs . I think next time she will probably spend more time there. She can't wait to get to VIBE though lol. There is so much more to say!!! Definitely book a Disney Cruise and do yourself a favor and book the longer cruise it is worth EVERY PENNY!!

My first cruise ever and now I am hooked on that cruise life. My husband and family members who have been on other cruises have warned me that not all cruises are made equal and Disney Cruise Lines sets the bar for stellar service and experience. Things couldn't have been smoother booking online and purchasing excursions, special dining packages and babysitting for our trip on the Disney Dream. We also purchased ground transportation from the airport to the port since we were traveling with our 1 year old. This worked out well since we didn't have to pack a car seat. Once we landed at the airport, we checked our suitcase with ground transportation and 6 hours later it was delivered to our stateroom on the ship. We didn't have to worry about lugging it around during security and check in at the port. We attended the "small world nursery" open house on the first night and our baby immediately fell in love with the great staff and atmosphere. We felt confidant and comfortable leaving her there especially since she's going through a difficult separation anxiety stage. The food was fantastic, our servers were warm and caring. Our brunch at Palo (adults only, extra charge) was FANTASTIC. Our server was exceptional and the buffet is what dreams are made of (crab legs, French cheese, Italian cured meats, caviar) - this is the ultimate cruise life experience. We enjoyed the shows and on-board entertainment (our baby won the Diaper Dash, my sister won bingo, I won at the Disney trivia, and we even got in on some family fun dance-offs and karaoke). You can't control the weather (the ship was very rocky the last night and the Castaway Cay stop was cancelled) but Disney Cruise Lines does everything they can to make up for it. I'll never forget the fireworks on the pirate party night. Thank you, DCL for introducing me to UCL (ultimate cruise life). I'm saving up money for our next Disney cruise.

For a second family trip to Disney World we decided to spend 5 nights on the Disney Dream. It was personally my second cruise "first was not Disney" and my kids there first. The kids ages, 16, 12 and 7. No matter the difference in ages, all kids had a wonderful time. There is something to do for each age group, including great for adults as well. The decor on the ship is unbelievable, Disney definitely goes all out to be the best out there. The staff is on top of things with great attitudes just like their amusement parks. They have great live shows, character greetings and buena vista theatre for watching all the new releases. They have other activities like karaoke and bingo as well. Up top there is a couple different swimming pools and even an area for adults only which is nice to have. In the location they call the aqua duck they have a water coaster that circles the whole top deck and is worth the wait. One of the nights is a pirate themed night where you can dress as pirates and sing along with the crew while watching fireworks over the ship at night.. It's awesome.. The cruise leaves from Port Canaveral,FL and heads to the Bahamas which was a fun place with great beaches and great people. The second stop was Disney's own island Castaway Cay. This island is beautiful. The water is clear and warm, we swam for hours. There is plenty to do from volleyball, bike riding or just relaxing on the beach. We will take a Disney cruise again in the future, although maybe next time to Alaska.

What a blast! Loved every minute of it. Daughters enjoyed Funnel Vision-that is, at the deeper pool 5.3 ft where you can watch a movie! Tip: Make sure the kiddos grab a life vest so they can relax in the middle of the pool since its deep. We enjoyed the spa! Each day they offer a spa special (you'll find this info in the navigator) "the perfect day" is a 50 minute full body massage and facial! I felt all glowy after. The products Disney uses are top notch & my skin as never felt better. Another event we loved was pirate night! We all wore pirate shirts (bought fr Amazon) and its a party on deck 11 (pool area) topper of w/ fireworks (best seen from deck 12 right side of stage. From there you can see where the fireworks launch from. Its the closest you'll ever be to fireworks!! My biggest regret was not going to Cabanas. We chose to get served at restaurants and quick snacks at Flo's cafe while we swam & watched movies. Disney Entertainment was what it all about. Best time ever.

We went on our first Disney cruise with Dream and going again this year. The boat is spectacular but it's really the staff that go above and beyond to bring it all together. Everyone always had a smile on their face and so personable not a bad apple in the bunch! I so recommend this cruise and am counting down the days to our next one!

SERVICE, under statement! TRUE STORY! When you loose your prescription glasses in the ocean at CastAway Cay and Disney gives you a claim receipt, that's something else! When my nephew lost his glasses and can't see anything with out them we thought oh boy! Omg, how will he survive the cruise and drive home. I thought it was interesting they would give him a receipt and ask them to check back. I know Disney prides themselves on their guest having a memorable time and any potential for a bad experience is not welcome. They will go above and beyond for your family to have great memories. We made a joke that I guess a crew member is going scuba diving. The glasses were lost in the ocean, not a pool, OCEAN! We are out 1000 to 2000 feet from the beach area playing at the sea harbor play area and the glasses fell off. The water in that area is about 14' deep! I be dog on they recovered the glasses! REALLY! REALLY DISNEY! All to preserve the fun we were having! IMPRESSIVE! Now that's Service, incredible execution of a perfect vacation. Needless to say, the party continued full vision!!

Dream is certainly a proper name for this ship. From our servers to the crew!!! Exceptional!!! Every moment is a memory that will last a lifetime.

Our family's first cruise and we were not disappointed. My kids enjoyed the Vybe and Edge program they have on board. Our servers are on point. I have to say the entire crew are AMAZING! The entire staff are helpful and happy to help make your cruise enjoyable. Learned that the entire crew are onboard for 6 months. Despite being away from their family for that long they remain upbeat and happy. Loved the crew and cruise!

Amazing cruise. Ship is so clean and has a great set up. Cruised July 30-Aug 4th and all I can say is just wow. Did a quick follow up carnival cruise (victory) on sept 28th and realized just how well disney brand does cruising. The castaway 5k is a must. Food was 10/10 every time. Turndown service was perfect. Room service was very fast. I wanna go again!!!!!!!!

I wish I could give the Disney Cruise 5 stars but sadly I can not. The cruise itself is amazing but DO NOT USE THE Senses Spa!!! My husband got a massage and ended up in the emergency room with a herniated disk! When I called Disney they wanted nothing to do with it! They said is was a 3rd party problem Steiner and didn't even listen to what happened! So beware!!! This is a really expensive cruise and although very nice this really put a damper on our vacation and totally disappointed with how Disney handled it!

We had such a wonderful 4 day cruise . Staff was wonderful and the food was great. This is our family's 2nd time on this ship and crew really give you a personalized Disney experience!

Overall a pleasant trip. Food on the cruise was mediocre at best. I've had better cruise food and I'm talking about the nice dinners, not the buffet. Service was impeccable. Ship was immaculate. Just too many people on board and the food wasn't that good. A tip: if you take the Bahamas cruise and have a day in Nassau, the Aquaventure at Atlantis is nice but know that you will not have a full day there. At best, you'll arrive around 11am after all of the lines and shuttles and you have to catch the last shuttle back to the ship around 4pm. Not sure it was worth $300/person knowing I had about 4-5hrs at the water park. We basically got to ride 4 rides and swim a bit. The swimming pools on board are very small. Each pool may comfortably hold 10-15 kids and there are only two kids pools but 2000+ people on board. If you can wait until the evening to swim, it is much quieter and enjoyable. The Aquaduck is the on-board water slide that wraps around the ship. It is pretty cool but never worth a 45min wait which is common during day hours. The wait is 5min or less if you wait until after dark.

It was my fist ever cruise and i loved it i am going on another one very soon and the waiters are so amazing they where the best waiter you will ever have they do magic tricks for kids and have really funny jokes
