	Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 65+ Cruise Experience: First cruise Traveler Type: Family w/young children Stateroom Type: Balcony lovely 7 day cruise by A Traveler from edmonton Sailing date: Jan 2012 Pros: the food, staff and cleanliness From the opening welcome to the end of our week the staff were very friendly and helpful. All the printed information each day gave a full review of what to do and where to go. When going off the ship, you were aware of the activities, retail areas and the things one should do to be safe. Ship Details: Ship Quality Not only was the inside clean but they were painting and cleaning the outside too. Everything was spic and span. Dining/Food Buffets were full of choices anytime you ate there and in the dining rooms there was also a good choice of foods. Palo restaurant which only cost an extra $20 per person was a first class place to eat- decor and food. Stateroom Quality Alex kept our room clean and organized without moving things. The room was tastefully decorated and was very clean. I liked having a balcony and tv on board for the few times when I wanted to be in the room. Ship Staff Quality Everyone we encountered on the boat that was employed by Disney spoke to us- even the maintainance staff. They also were helpful and knowledgeable and competent. 0 out of 0 people found this review helpful. Did you find this review helpful?

Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 30 - 49 Cruise Experience: 2 - 3 cruises Traveler Type: Family w/young children Stateroom Type: Balcony AMAZING AND IT WAS WONDERFUL by A Traveler from NY Sailing date: Jul 2010 Pros: Loved the services Cons: too much food! hahaha this was a long awaited trip for me and my 2 little ones (6 and 3 y.o.) ... there was so much to do - we skip a lot and kept to a minimal to avoid burn out. We love the Castaway Bay - totally worth the heat. We didn't do any sailing and snorkling because our kids are still young. but as mommy, boy, did I enjoy doing "nothing". as for nassau on shore, if you are not a big shopper or wants to do any of the glass bottom boats stuff, you can skip. It was really hot! If you like to work out, I found plenty of space outside the gym to run and kick! We avoided the gift shop until the last minute - as you would guess, things are over - priced. But heck, it's disney memobilia - I paid $90 for about 10 professional photos. I did do one spa treatment - the robe did not fit me and was way too big! After treatment, I was all relaxed - then she started into the sales pitch. I didn't buy any of the stuff because partly the items they sell are only good with the therapist and the room comes with it! I would do the spa treatment again but still won't buy their products. Ship Details: Ship Quality My little one (3 y.o.) just loved the elevators - so going up and down was no big deal. the elevators & stairs are well placed so everything was accessible. We just had to always figure out which is forward and which is aft! Everything was very clean. I am definitely missing my statement host! He cleaned and folded those animal towels with STYLE! The Mickey's pool was cleaned at least twice while we were on a 4-night cruise... so #1 or #2 sure was not there for a long time. As for the ocean club and lab for the kids, they were really cute! The club was very well cushioned so that certainly decreased the possibility of high sugared filled children! the counselors are great and very friendly! they have eternal patients and I saw one for safety reasons asked a very good climber to get down in a very nice way! When climber did not listen, she gently picked her up and put her down. Also, the entire staff is wipey obsessed! they were everywhere! no > dirty hands! Dining/Food Since we booked late, we had to seat at a 8:15 seatings... it really not great for my 2 kids - they both felt asleep by the time we ordered. So we were able to get them food earlier at a different place and the food is just as good. It's really salty for our taste so if you want less, you can always ask for sauces on the side, etc... and we loved our server - my little one is a picky eater - they were able to get his favorite foods steamed w/ no other added ingredients. The animator restaurant had the best ambiance - as we sat, there's a very subtle light show. Most cocktail drinks and non-alcoholic drinks are very expensive - ranging from 5 - 9/ per 8-10 oz servings. Stateroom Quality Considering the expected small size, we were very comfortable w/ 2 adults and 2 little kids. our statement slept 4 people. even it was closed to the stairs, I was so sleepy and the swaying of the ocean put me to sleep in no time. My little one kept asking why we have 2 bathrooms - well, if someone is taking a shower or bath, someone can go to the toilet w/o having to wait. Ship Staff Quality I saw a captain pick up a piece of paper off the floor - no personnel was above in treating the ship as if it was their pride and joy. When you have a tray and try to hold a crazy toddler at a buffet, some one would come up to you and get your tray and help you get seated! My older one slipped at the swimming pool (of course, after we told him not to step on the wet slippery part!) and banged his head, the life guard came over to tell us because we missed it as we were attending to his little brother for something else. Life guard even suggested that we take him down to get him checked out just in case. But the pool is "child" friendly enough w/i 2 minutes, my older one is back to splashing and sliding. Entertainment & Activities wow, the live shows are the best! go see them all - it's worth the cruise ticket you paid. and my kids love the disney characters running around and taking pictures with them. The theatres are very cold - we all had to wear extra shirt to keep us from freezing. Children's Programs they got everything from a year old to 12 year old! Most parents tell me they don't feel "guilty" letting their kids around on their own. I saw groups of 8-9 y.o.s to teenagers having a good time. Wow, a teenager having a good time! ;-) heee hee. Read this user's port of call reviews: Castaway Cay (Disney Private Island); Nassau, Bahamas Collapse List of Ports Ports of Call: Castaway Cay (Disney Private Island) very private - you won't be bother about getting hair braided, massaged or cocktailed to death. The food is from the ship - so just expect more of the same salty food. the corn was overcooked - i like it cruchy. The sand is amazing! I saw fish in the water and it was really clear! We also so a gekco. My little loved that! We didn't do everything because it was really hot. Get there early to get off early! They have towels there for you - and lots of places for water and shower off. Nassau, Bahamas Hot! you can skip if you don't go into port for any of the disney excursions. 9 out of 9 people found this review helpful. Did you find this review helpful?

Cons: Nothing I thought that the ship was very clean, friendly staff and a great experience all around. Ship Details: Ship Quality Not as big as I thought at first. But very clean, well decorated and very nice layout for everyone. Dining/Food The wait staff was great and friendly. The food was very well prepared and lots of choices. The rooms where very enteraining and as for are time for diner if I was to do it again I would try to get the early dining time. Stateroom Quality A lot bigger then I thought it was going to be.

I loved looking out over the water Ship Staff Quality The staff was very helpful and knowledgable about everything I had to ask.

Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 30 - 49 Cruise Experience: 2 - 3 cruises Traveler Type: Couple Stateroom Type: Balcony Simply Magical by Ricky C. from Orlando, Florida Sailing date: Dec 2009 Pros: Dining - the food was amazing, specifically Palo The Disney Wonder was simply fantastic. The crew, the accomodations, the dining, all exceeded my expectations, which were already high because it is after all Disney. Ship Details: Ship Quality The ship was easy to navigate, there are signs clearly posted everywhere. It was Disney clean and the decor was a consistent theme and was simply breathtaking. Dining/Food We had second seting, which was not that great, but the food was amazing. The first ting everyone should do when they board is make a reservation at Palo's. Our only negative was Parrot Cay, which we did not really enjoy, but every other restaurant was outstanding. Stateroom Quality Large, comfortable, Deluxe stateroom with Verendah. Ship Staff Quality Simply execellent. Our server's were fantastic, by the end of the cruise they were almost anticipating what I wanted, and were always right there, but not intrusive. Entertainment & Activities Disney Dreams is a great show. The other two shows were BRoadway quality and very good. There is a wide range of options available for everyone and all top quality. 4 out of 6 people found this review helpful. Did you find this review helpful?

My daughter is a teen and the events they have for kids are wonderful. She came home with a list of new friends. Also, the Disney staff make sure all kids are safe and happy. I can't say enough about how much fun we had. I enjoyed the adults only portions of the cruise. We had just the right mix of family time and alone time. Thanks Disney! You are always a great host.
