Four nights on a Disney cruise is perfect. You can experience all the restaurants, and still have a dinner in Enchante and a brunch in Palo.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Embarkation was seamless. And, just an fyi, the rest rooms on teh ground level of the garage are spotless with no line and closer to check in than the ones in the terminal.

Entertainment
5 out of 5
The staging for the Disney shows never disappoints. It is simply amazing. Grab a seat in the middle section of the balcony where you can enjoy the staging.
Children's Programs
5 out of 5
The kids clubs and programs are awesome. Just a word of advice. Sign your children up for the kids program as soon as you board. This was they make instant friends and know the ropes when you leave them there for a couple of hours.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
The staff is always very attentive and the cabin stewards are invisible but your cabin is always spotless.

Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
The cabin has plenty of storage and the split bathroom is awesome. The extra large balcony is great for lazy mornings with coffee and sea days.
Ship tip
Reserve specialty dining prior to boarding as not to be disapppinted.
I boarded in Port Canaveral after a beautiful drive across the Gulf Coast. I sat in a long line to drop off my bags (which moved amazingly quickly) and parked in the Disney Garage on level 3 so I could walk directly across to the ship via the sky walk.
This stop is awesome. It is a "true" Bahamian experience with natural vegetation and paths tucked in. The staff housing is not visible and the available activities are sure to tire even the most active by day's end. The adult only beach is secluded and tranquil with great drink service and lunch close by.
I remember the "old" Nassau from the days it was a British Colony and I left the ship in search of these memories. I was not disappointed as I strolled down memory lane to Cole's of Nassau on Parliament Street. It still carried its classic bright colored Bahamian attire for ladies and some awesome woven handbags from Brazil. I then wandered past the Parliament buildings to a lovely restaurant tucked in next to them called Cafe Matisse. I choses to sit in the cobblestoned courtyard where fans and umbrellas shade you from the sun and offered a slight breeze. A rum punch set the stage for me to savor the arugula salad with candied bacon and a light fig dressing. I then proceeded to wander back to the ship wilst window shopping and savoring my visit to "Old Nassau".
Ah, the trip has come to an end with a quick trip to Marceline Market for a cup of coffee to enjoy on my balcony before I gathered my bags for an early disembarkation. I took my place in line about 7:00am for a 7:15 disembarkation and strolled thru customs and up teh escalator, across the sky walk and to my car. I pulled out of the parking garage at 7:28 am and headed West to Houston. My first stop was breakfast at Reveille in The Villages for breakfast.
