Review summary

Where to start....the ship is beautiful. This is the econd Disney cruise I have been on.  The first one was 10 years ago on the Wonder.  The Fantasy is twice as big, and twice as much fun. The shows are awesome.  I mised the first nights how (Wishes) but I caught every other show. As a specil treat we got to see Frozen in 3D in the main Walt Disney Theater. Great movie. The food was good, but not great, with the exception of Palo. Palo costs an extra $25 per person, but you MUST do the brunch.  Service is awesome and the food is incredibe. Plus it is adults only, so it is quiet.  And best of all you are not rushed. We sat for almost 2 hours and enjoyed every minute of it. The adult section of the ship (Europa) is located on the 4th deck aft and is made up of many different lounges. We checked out O'Gill's pub and Skyline lounge. Skyline is a martini bar, with a cool drink menu. Also, the scenery behind the bar changes every 15 minutes to a different city Skylne...very cool. I suggest the mixology class...it cost $15 and was worth every penny, as was the old world wine tasting (European wines).  The kids were never board and we never saw them except for dinner. My 15 and 14 yer olds were at the Vibe or somewhere else on the ship, and my 13 qnd 12 year olds were at The Edge or at the Aquaduck.  Highly recommend the Aquaduck.  The only bad part was our dinner servers.  They were not prompt and ewe were always rushed at the end of our meal, yet they had to brag about their excellent service. Plus they totally forgot my sons birthday even though they knew it was Dec 1.  Every other night tables were being sung to, and my son took notice.  On the last night one of his friends asked why Nick wasn't sung to. I guess we shamed them into it, becaue on the last night of the cruise he got his song....6 days late. The buffet....cabana's, was very good as well.....

 

Do this cruise if you can...

10 years age we also went on a cruise. 18 of us celebrated my parents 50th wedding anniversary and we were married on it as well. Now we are going again to celebrate our 10th anniversary. Unfortunately my dad is not here to help us celebrate but my mom is and she is going with us. Will have to let you know our experience and hopefully it will be as wonderful as yours!
