Fun for Children, Tweens, and Teens
Aboard Disney Cruise Line ships, it’s great to be a kid. Children can let their imagination sail free in nearly an entire deck customized just for them. Tweens and teens have places to kick back, and the smallest seafarers are cared for in a colorful space inspired by the classic theme park attraction, It’s a Small World. Dedicated, age-specific areas and customized, interactive programs inspire, entertain and spark the imagination of children up to age 17.
While children are enjoying the most extensive youth activity areas at sea, parents can enjoy the ship “worry-free,” thanks to complimentary wave phones that allow crew or kids to contact parents anytime and anywhere on the ship. Plus, all Disney Cruise Line youth activities are supervised by specially trained counselors and feature some of the longest operating hours at sea. This provides greater flexibility for parents and even more fun for kids.
Infants and toddlers (up to 3 years old) are cared for and entertained with toys, books, crafts and games at It’s a Small World Nursery. Disney Cruise Line babysitting services offer the longest operating hours of any cruise company.
Children can customize their vacations by choosing from a variety of activities. Disney’s Oceaneer Club and Disney’s Oceaneer Lab (ages 3-12) transport children to magical realms of adventure and exploration. Tweens (ages 11-14) enjoy video games, a multitude of hi-tech entertainment arts and movies in Edge.
For the teens, Vibe (ages 14-17) provides an ultra-cool teen-only hangout. It’s the perfect chill-out spot with music, large-screen TVs, games and snacks. On the Disney Fantasy and Disney Dream, teens have their own private deck for fun outside in the sun.
Adults Relax, Dine, and Play
Disney Cruise Line offers adults upscale and sophisticated experiences designed just for them. From elegant dinners to backstage tours to the exclusive Quiet Cove pool, adults will find endless ways to relax and enjoy themselves in areas set aside just for them.
Relaxation and rejuvenation take center stage at Senses Spa & Salon. The only thing here that’s more indulgent than a massage, body wrap or pedicure is enjoying a treatment in a spa villa complete with an indoor suite connected to a private outdoor verandah with personal hot tub and open-air shower.
Palo, located high atop each ship, is a romantic fine-dining restaurant exclusively for adults. Remy (Disney Dream, Disney Fantasy) is the premier Disney Cruise Line adult-dining option. Meanwhile, Cove Café provides the perfect place to sit back and sip a gourmet coffee.

Uniquely themed restaurants are as delightful as they are delicious. While guests visit different restaurants each night, the same servers accompany them. This concept provides a variety of dining experiences and menus along with friendly, familiar, personalized service each night.
At Animator’s Palate, Pacific Rim flavors combine with California freshness and a host of other cultural and culinary influences. As an added treat, passengers enjoy dinner and a show. On special evenings during cruises seven nights or longer, “Animation Magic” brings guests’ own drawings to life on screen. Aboard the Disney Magic and Disney Wonder, scenes from Disney films magically come alive with color throughout “Drawn to Magic,” a black-and-white to color animation show.

Disney Difference
Most Disney Caribbean and Bahamian cruises lead to the magical shores of Castaway Cay, a private island paradise exclusively for Disney Cruise Line guests, with separate activities and areas for families, teens, and adults.
On a Disney cruise, staterooms are family-size, immaculately appointed with a nautical Disney flair and smartly designed to let guests stretch out in style and comfort. As an added convenience, most staterooms feature a “split bath-and-a-half” with a sink and tub/shower in one room and a sink and toilet in a separate room.
