Review summary

Overall the experience was great for our family. The service, particularly our server and asst. server exceeded already high expectations. That said, it is tough to swallow paying more for a room upgrade and then having to listen to deck chairs being moved from 10-12pm and 4-6 am every day of the cruise. Th extra balcony was nice, but I would have picked a regular room for less money  on a lower deck had I known that the sound insulation was lacking on 10. Finally, on an 8 day cruise, we had less than 30 hours of port time. St. Thomas had to be boarded by 4:30pm, and pirate night was in st. Martin instead of an at sea day so we had to be back on the boat for those festivities. I would do another Disney cruise, but not this itinerary.

very loud at night and in the morning due to location where the staff was constantly at work above us.

Not a lot of time in port, so plan well. The doubloon excursion spent as much time telling us about tips and t shirts as it did snorkeling and the gear was old and lacking in children's sizes.
