Review summary

First Disney cruise and loved it. Next Disney experience will probably be theme park, but will certainly do Disney cruise again.

Embarkation

1 out of 5
We were fortunate enough to have concierge lvl stateroom, so we bypassed the crowds and we're escorted through check in and on the ship. It was less than 15 minutes.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
Cabanas buffet was fantastic. Breakfast and lunch only. Something for every palate. Endless stone crab, large peel & eat shrimp. Leg of lamb, beef filet....all great stuff. The dinner restaurants were just ok. I found the food bland.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Splash pad for the toddler, slide for the 5 yr old. They had a blast. We spent most of our free time at the pools.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
A different show every night. They truly did an outstanding job keeping the audience entertained and amazed. Plenty of Disney magic on display.

Children's Programs

3 out of 5
My 5 yr old went once to the club and enjoyed it, but didn't want to go back. We tried to get our 2 yr old to go, but too much separation anxiety.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
All staff simply fantastic. Always smiling, always greeted the girls as princesses. Eager to help and eager to meet requests.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
First time that I didn't get lost on a cruise. The Dream has a simple layout and is easy to navigate. The public restroom were immaculate.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Lots of room, storage galore, and comfortable. The only issue was not being able to get to the varanda while the sleeper sofa was down. Had to climb over it.

Ports of call

Port Canaveral, Florida

5 out of 5

Castaway Cay (Disney Private Island)

5 out of 5
We splurged and rented a Cabana for the day....I honestly didn't want to leave. If you can afford it, rent it.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Easy, but got selected by customs for baggage check it
