Disney Wonder

7 Night Alaskan Voyage With Icy Strait (Vancouver Roundtrip)

Sail date: July 08, 2024

Ship: Disney Wonder

Cabin number: 8602

Traveled as: Family (young children)

Review summary

The ship was spotless and the crew made great efforts towards cleanliness. Staff was pleasant and accommodating. The location of our cabin and cruise were disappointing for our group. We wanted to spend time with family and share activities with them but the cold windy weather closed down the pool areas. Great trip for adults but not kids. 5 days on a ship with limited family activities and only 3 remote port options is not the best option for our young family

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Great size and features but the noise from the restaurant above is intrusive

Ship tip

Don’t choose a cold location so you can use the outdoor facilities and don’t choose a stateroom below a restaurant

Sorry you were disappointed with your cruise. Maybe a Caribbean cruise would be a better fit for your next vacay

Yeah Alaska is not a good choice if you’re wanting a pool vacation. Disney has a great program for kids but not much parent/kid combined activities. Try a different itinerary and might as well go on another line that is much cheaper if you’re not going to use the kid’s programs.
