Pros: Friendly, helpful people to provide for your every need. Food, Entertainment, fun. Cons: A few disappointments..noisy toilets,
hot weather on the beach
I've just returned from my first ever cruise, on the Disney Wonder, with approximately 2,800 other people. I'm already planning how I can save money so I can go again. As in anything, there were a few disappointments, but there were also many good...
Pros: The Royal Suite made the cruise very special. Cons: The 3-night cruise was to short.
I called Disney Cruise Line direct and made reservations for two adults in their category 1, seven-day vacation. The first four days were spent at the Grand Floridian Beach Hotel at Walt Disney World and than followed by three nights ...
Pros: The ship is amazingly beautiful Cons: Nassau was rather run down, except for Atlantis
Never have taken a cruise before. In the future, I now know that I will again.
The Disney Wonder is truly an amazing ship and a great cruise to go on. Upon arriving at the Port Canaveral, Florida docking station, you are greeted by some of the...
Pros: kid friendly cruising, comfortable staterooms, plenty of entertainment Cons: pricey, four night cruise too short, no Princesses
I had planned to attempt a Disney cruise with my parents next spring. My brother took a cruise on the Magic with his family and his wife's sister's family last year and booked their next cruise onboard in order to get a discount. Because he has ...
Pros: Beautiful ship, family-oriented entertainment, excellent service Cons: They made me leave at the end of the trip!
My family just returned from a four-day cruise on the Disney Wonder. It was absolutely WONDERFUL! Port Canaveral: Since we live fairly close to Florida, we were able to drive to the port. It costs $10/day to park your car in their lot. Hint: The ...
Pros: Magnificent ship! Great food and entertainment! Castaway Cay!
Cons: Pretty expensive. Not much to do in Nassau. Only 3 or 4 nights!
This review has been a long time coming... It has been almost a year since we experienced the Disney Wonder for the first time. Part of the reason for my delay is the fact that my words can not do justice to the Disney Wonder experience. But I will do my ...
Pros: Spacious staterooms, bathtubs, Castaway Cay Cons: Expensive, too many timewasters
Cruising on the Disney Wonder reminded me of the one and only time I flew on Southwest Airlines (aka Cattle-Call Airlines). There was an awful lot of standing in line, being bumped into by other passengers. Unfortunately, unlike Southwest Airlines, the ...
Pros: Service, atmosphere. Disney makes you feel special. Cons: None for Disney just parents poor judgment about pool use.
We just returned from our second trip aboard the Disney Wonder. The first time (June 2001) we took the three day cruise and our children were 3 (son) and 5 (daughter). Our 5 year old daughter had a great time, but our son at 3 was a little young. Even ...
Pros: Atmosphere, amenities, service, ambience, romance, and Mickey! Cons: We didn't want to leave!
My husband (now of two years) and I chose to take a 3 day land/4 day sea cruise aboard the Wonder as part of our two week honeymoon vacation in Florida. I am a huge Disney fan and had never been on a cruise so this seemed to be a dream vacation for me. ...
Pros: The people (staff and fellow guests), the food, the stateroom and the destinations Cons: It was over way too quick!
This was my very first cruise, so I did not know what to expect. However, from the first moment aboard to the last fond farewell's, this cruise exceeded all my expectations. I could not have asked for a better vacation. Why did we go on a Disney ...
Pros: nice for young children, good plays, spacious stateroom with great decor Cons: poor service, below average food, no midnight buffet
In January of this year, I found out I was going to have a life threatening surgery. One of the promises I wanted to fulfill before my surgery was to take my daughter, who is moderately mentally handicapped, on a Disney Cruise. My daughter is mentally...
Pros: BEAUTIFUL SHIP, ATTENTIVE SERVICE, & MORE Cons: NOT-SO-HOT NASSAU
THE PLAN
First off, you have to know we were reluctant first-time cruisers with a husband who would rather stay home with the dog before setting foot on any boat. My two daughters (10 & 12) were hot and cold about the whole trip. However,...
Pros: A high quality cruise experience. Cons: None
Onboard Experience:
If you love all things Disney, and even if you don't, this is the ship for you. There are more Disney characters, per capita, aboard this ship than found at the theme park. Mickey adorns everything including the two red funnels...
Pros: Wonderful for families and people without children, gorgeous ship! Cons: None! Take this cruise!!
Disney Cruise Line blows all other family type cruising experiences literally out of the water. I can not stress enough to you that you should DEFINTELY take a cruise with them at least once in your life! Being a native Central Floridian, I’ve come ...
Pros: Inexpensive and awesome experience for adults Cons: Can get quite messy
As a veteran of 11 Disney cruises as a couple with no children, I consider myself an "expert" in the best onboard activities for adults. Often, I am asked which one is my all-time favorite, and I'd have to answer: "THE SURIAL...
So you've never been to a spa before, but you're booking on a cruise on the Disney Wonder, and you're tempted by all the stories you've heard about decadent, relaxing treatments that turn you into a limp noodle. You really want to try a massage, or ,aybe...
Pros: Fun for both children and adults Cons: I have none!
A few months ago, my husband and I went on The Disney Wonder.
This was a trip without the kids-I must say that once we were on the cruise-I wished we had brought our girls. There were so many planned activities and things to do-no one could ever be...
I was with one of the first groups aboard the Disney Wonder this summer. I would recommend this cruise to everyone of all ages! The ship was like something that I have never see before--It was beautiful and immaculate! The staff is friendly and always...
My family of five just returned from a July 4th, four night cruise on the Disney Wonder, with stops at Nassau and Castaway Cay. Without a doubt, this vacation was a fantastic experience that we all enjoyed! Having said that, I must include the ...
Pros: Excellent service Cons: I miss the improv comedy
#16 on the Disney Wonder was an awesome experience, although it got off to a shaky start...our limo in Chicago didn't show up, so we ended up driving frantically to Midway Airport and just barely made our plane! We were flying ATA, a no-frills but...
Pros: LOTS to do Cons: Not enough time to do it all
If you will be traveling on a 3 or 4 day cruise on the Disney Wonder, and especially if you are a first-time cruiser, you may be "wondering" how you'll be able to do it all. You've probably heard all about all the things you can do on a cruise...
Pros: Kids were entertained
Palos
Food
Relaxation
Babysitting
Cons: Elevators crowded!
No swim diapers allowed in kiddie pool.
Expensive to really enjoy yourself.
My father booked this cruise for my whole family to celebrate their 40th wedding anniversary. I was nervous about the cruise as we have a very active 2 year old that would be with us (as well as a 4 year old and a 5 year old) and I pictured us running ...
Pros: Excellent food, service, etc. Cons: Ends too quickly!
After our 12th Disney cruise over Labor Day weekend, I didn't think it could be topped. Our last journey on the Wonder was full of little surprises, like the goodie deliveries to our room, that made it extra special. But although #12 still ranks as the...
Pros: Good-sized rooms, nicely appointed Cons: Some are under noisy nightclubs
In 11 trips on Disney Cruise Line, I have stayed in virtually every stateroom category, from 11 all the way up to 5. Below is my review of the various rooms on the Wonder, with advice on good and bad locations & tips on choosing the best category for...
Pros: very easy, great ship, lots of activities for all ages Cons: at times too many kids running around, stays in port in the Bahamas are quite short
The Disney Cruise is an amazing experience whether you are a parent, child, grandparent, single adult, whatever. This summer, I went on the four-day cruise with my family as part of the seven day Disney Land and Sea vacation. The three days at the...
My family had always wanted to go on a Disney Cruise so after spending 7 days at WDW we were off on our cruise Arrival- After parking our car we had a pretty easy check-in and we were soon announced and quickly boarded the ship and we were sent to ...
Pros: luxury ship, 24 hour coffee, castaway cay, vip treatment, friendly Cast members Cons: bottled water, soft drink prices, day at sea, Nassau
I just returned from a 7 day Disney vacation on the Disney Wonder and want to share some pros and cons with those of you who are planning a Disney cruise.
Our trip was fantastic! It exceeded all of our expectations. You will not regret taking...
The WonderFUL is just that. More space, more balconies,all cabins have tubs, hairdryers,safes,refrigerators and twin baths. Enough storage space for an around the world cruise.
Pros: Every detail thought of...the perfect vacation Cons: Too short, not enough time to do everything!
This is without a doubt the best vacation my family has ever been on. We chose the three day cruise to make sure no one would get sea sick! From the moment we came into contact with Disney personnel (in our case it was after getting off the airplane in...
Pros: Much smoother process than Royal Caribbean Cons: It means your trip is over
It's the saddest time of your vacation...time to leave the Wonder. But at least Disney makes it a smooth experience...much smooth than any of the Royal Caribbean ships we've been on. Here is some information on how the disembarkation process works and...
Pros: Perfect for Families, Beautiful Ship, Top grade entertainment Cons: Food.. not so hot and.. too many kids to be "Romantic"
My husband and I are childless but opted for the Disney Wonder Cruise. We have cruised before and thought this might be a fun option for us. We liked it.. but would not rate it as wonderful as other Cruise Lines. We also think this is really a ship for...
Pros: There are ways to save money Cons: You can spend a fortune if you're not careful
Cruises have a reputation for being an all-inclusive vacation. Thus, when people board the ship, they are in for a rude shock when confronted with all the extras like pop, alcohol, video games, photos, shore excursions, spa treatments...you get the...
Pros: This cruise can be Smooth Sailing if you know what to do Cons: Getting off the boat is bad.. almost no way to avoid the mess.
I was on the Wonder and I did some extensive research before going. I loved the ship. While on board I also got some "education" Here are my best tips guaranteed to make your trip smooth sailing.
Pros: An island paradise! Cons: Snorkeling is not great
One of the biggest highlights of cruising the Wonder is the stop at Disney's private island, Castaway Cay. On the three day cruise, it happens on the very last day, before you sail back to reality. On the four day, you get a day at sea afterwards. ...
Pros: Palos 2 times, Castaway cay, disney dreams, 3 shots of meyers Cons: Kids program beeping you. smell at parrot cay, soot in pool area from smoke stacks, trash under beds.
Okay; I'll try not to repeat the same stuff and only confirm or add
to reviews already posted. Also we just went on RCL equivalent 3 day cruise and found ourselves wishing we had boarded the Wonder with our kids 10/2000.
Just back from Wonder...
Pros: Disney does EVERYTHING for you!! Cons: Shared dining is not what we wanted
We booked this trip a year in advance and were so excited to go! Our family chose the 7 day bahama cruise, with 4 days at Disney, and 3 days at sea. Traveling with us would be myself, my husband, our 7 year old son and 2 year old daughter. Everything...
Pros: Paradise Island excursion (Nassau) Cons: inside cabins are TINY!
Booking a Disney Cruise is so painless you almost think you're going to get it free until they quote you the price. OUCH! But all things considered, it's worth every penny and more. We went the first week of November.
Pros: Great shows, beautiful ship Cons: Below average sit down service/food
Our first experience with a Disney cruise was a pleasant one. We arrived in Port Canaveral in January 2000, after an overnignt stay at Patrick AFB in Coco Beach. (If you are military, use your benefits!) Parking at the terminal was easy and not...
Pros: Kids did not distract from romantic honeymoon. Cons: High price for drinks.
Believe it or not, a Disney cruise is something I am going to highly recommend as an option for a young couple's honeymoon. My wife did extensive research into the Disney Cruise Line after we became engaged in order to convince me that we should go. I'm...
Pros: You usually get to embark early Cons: Safety drill
After a dozen Disney cruises, my husband and I have our embarkation routine down to an exact science. When it's your first Disney cruise, the rush of the airport can seem confusing as you strain to find the Disney Cruise rep. When you first arrive at...
Pros: Palos, Castaway Cay, volume of activities Cons: leaving Freeport so early when there was so much time to travel basically around the block, cast responsiveness and lack of sense of urgency in face of toxic fumes throughout midships
We returned from our third DCL cruise a little less impressed with the Disney pixie dust. This was our first trip without the kids, a decision that proved a good one.
Our cruise departed September 10th following our first Disneyana convention...
Pros: Beautiful ship, Castaway Cay Cons: $20 Soda Mugs, Nassau
We arrived on the Disney Wonder after 7 full days at Walt Disney World where we stayed at the Grand Floridian (I'll write a separate review on this--fabulous)! Our group included my husband and I along with our two sons, ages 2 and 4. We traveled from...
Pros: easy cancellation, friendly staff, quick service Cons: need reservations pretty far in advance
Oh, the joys of cruising............
We won't be experiencing them this coming September like we had planned. Well, that is what happens when people who NEVER plan a vacation try to do so in such a LARGE scale and time frame. It was bound to...
Pros: Tips can make your experience smoother Cons: If you are not prepared beforehand, you may miss some of the reservations you want
As a veteran of 16 Disney cruises, I have really "learned the ropes." I am writing this review to share my experience and help first-timers be prepared. With a little knowledge beforehand, you can ensure that your Disney cruise is the best vacation...
Pros: Food is always available Cons: Ice cream is yucky soft serve
I have posted the menus for the three main restaurants on the Wonder on my website at www.disneycruiser.com and I plan to do a review of them as well. But frequently on message boards I see questions about the snacking opportunities. People want to know,...
Pros: Great first-time cruise experience, great for Disney fanatics Cons: Lots of kids, limited smoking, no gambling
Disney Cruise Line has been sailing since August of 1998, but I still talk to many people who confuse it with the Big Red Boat (Disney characters used to appear on that Premier ship, although now it's the Loony Tunes gang).
Pros: Something for everyone Cons: Not as much to do for 18-20 age group
Last summer my husband's parents took the entire family on a Disney Cruise to celebrate the 50th wedding anniversary of my husband's Grandparents. There were 2 elderly people, 14 adults, 3 teens, and 5 kids (2 of the kids were 18 months) and the whole ...
The Wonder is a BIG ship...it may not be as large as Royal Caribbean's mega-vessels, Voyager and Explorer, but it can still be confusing (and even intimidating) when you first board.
After 13 cruises on Disney's ships, I know my way around...
Pros: Outside view for an inside price Cons: Far forward, can be noisy
One of the best-kept secrets on the Disney Wonder are the "secret porthole" rooms. These six rooms on Deck 5 are sold as Category 10 inside staterooms. However, they have obstructed view portholes, giving you a nice little window on the world...
Pros: Beautiful Ship, Great Kids Programs, Large Staterooms, Fantastic Verandah's. Cons: Lenient Smoking Policy, So-So Food, Minimal Deck Seating.
We cruised on the Wonder last November. There were 4 of us in 1 category 5 stateroom, 3 adults and 1 child. Our category 5 stateroom had a queen size bed, couch bed and a pull down bed. Thanks to the verandah we never felt crowded!
My family and I had been wanting to go on one last Disney trip before my brother and I got too old to enjoy the fun and excitement of Disney World. My father likes to relax and tan all day, along with me, my mother wanted to try a cruise for her...
Pros: ample activities, large cabin, good service Cons: snorkel gear cost, no midnight buffet or casino
I went on this cruise with my husband and two boys, ages 8 and 10. We went in the first week of December with the 4-day land and 3 day sea package. After spending 4 days at various Disney parks we went on the cruise. Our hotel room card key was the same...
Pros: Castaway Cay Cons: To much walking in theme parks
My family of four recently returned from a Disneyworld package that included 4 days at Disneyworld and a 3 day Disney Cruise. We added on a couple of extra days and spent two days at Universal Studios and their new theme park Islands of Adventure. My...
Pros: Wonderful crew, great food and entertainment.
Kids and parents had a blast! Cons: Long lines when waiting to get pictures with character. No chairs at kid pools.
We went on Feb. 26, 2005.It was our first cruise and now we are hooked. The ship is so clean, even though i took along a tub of wipes,it was not necessary. Our room was on deck 2 forward. We got a room with a porthole window. I first got an inside ...
Pros: As good as ever. Cons: 3-day cruise goes by way too fast.
It seems like an eternity, but it was only a couple years ago that my husband refused to try cruising because he said "It will be boring." Now, 13 Disney cruises later, with 4 more already booked, you can tell that there was no lack of...
Pros: Loved every minute of the trip Cons: Went by too fast
We cruised on the Disney Magic in Sept 99. Inside cabin deck 5. The weather was beautiful. The ship magnificent, service outstanding, Meals were very good, except I was disappointed in Palo's. The only fault I found was the seats in the movie theater...
Pros: You can charge the tips on your credit card Cons: Line can be long
I run an unofficial Disney Cruise Line website and frequent several related message boards, and some of the most frequently asked questions involve tipping. Who do you tip? How much should you give? When do you give it? These are just a few of the things...
We sailed aboard the Disney Wonder on June 8 th, 2000. Most of the comments we had heard regarding cruises was about the wonderful food and the entertainment aboard ship. We are fairly snobby eaters and active travelers so the idea of cruising wasn’t...
Pros: Castaway Cay, Verandah, Great for Families, Palos, Couples Surial Bath, Boardwalk, kid's clubs, Mickey pool, shows Cons: cost, activities schedule, overall food just okay, too short,
We had the best vacation ever aboard the Disney Wonder. I tried to be objective in the review, so if it sounds negative at all in any parts, please don't take it the wrong way. The overall experience was extremely positive. We had a great time aboard...
Pros: Fun and cheery atmosphere Cons: Unable to visit Castaway Cay, Nassau is scary.
We took our second Disney cruise in January 2000. We had previously cruised on the Disney Magic in January or 1999 had a great time. My main reason for going back was Castaway Cay, Disney's private island. It was amazing back in 1999, like being in...
Pros: Big cabins, rotating dining rooms, entertainment in adult only areas, the children's program, seamless transfer from Disney resorts to ship, Castaway Cay Cons: The food, drink prices, too many kids, expensive, Nassau
I worked on both the Disney Magic and Disney Wonder for over a year. I was an entertainer, the band leader of the Wavebands band in the adult only section. I can give you an honest assessment of what goes on. First the food. The dining experience is...
Pros: Virtually everything! Cons: Minor issues only: eg., no clocks in cabin
We left the kids at home and had a great time! Disney Wonder. Dec 10-14
For our 20th anniversary we decided to do the 3 day Resort/4 day Cruise package that Disney offers. We enjoy Disney (though I would not classify us as Disney fanatics!),...
Pros: worry-free,great service,Disney fun Cons: you'll wish the trip was longer!
Are you ready for the trip of a lifetime? Then you are ready for the
Disney Wonder! Combined with the land package, it will be the most worry-free
trip you will ever take. Disney knows how to treat their guests! You take
care of all...
Pros: Be prepared before you cruise Cons: Hard to find via search engines
Back in the dark days when I was still on America Online, I learned that their message boards were an excellent resource for planning my Disney World vacations. Even though I was already familiar with Disney, I could count on my fellow fanatics to alert...
Pros: Cabins, embarkation and disembarkation Cons: No cons on this one
My husband and I sailed on the Disney Wonder in October and thought it was wonderful! After spending four fabulous days at the Grand Floridian, we were ecstatic with our beautiful suite. The ship is new and gorgeous! The concierge was there to greet us...
Pros: Entertainment that floats! It's incredible! Cons: The three-day cruise is way too short.
As a first-time cruiser, and a young adult with no children to tote, I have to admit that when my fiancee' suggested we take the Disney Cruise for our honeymoon, I was a tiny bit skeptical.
Having been on over 30 different ship's, Disney's new ships, both the Wonder and the Magic, are definately a big step above the rest.
The only ship in comparison is the newest Royal Caribbean Ship, The Vision of the Seas.
Pros: Disney does it right Cons: Poor weather that caused some slight sickness
My wife & I sailed the Disney Wonder on a Halloween cruise. It was not a theme cruise, but happened to fall on that date. That was the good news, as the ship was only half full. The staff indicated the next six trips were packed, but we chose the...
Pros: Not enough activities for families to do together Cons: Cost
We went on a 7 day Disney World/Cruise package. I won the trip from the Disney Website, and it was supposed to be a retail value of $3500, which would be about $500 a day, so it isn't a low cost vacation. Disney World was fun, but if I did this vacation...
Pros: Great food, Cool Movie Theater, Great Ports, Super Service Cons: Lots of Kids, Pricey, No Window in Room
This was my first cruising experience, and I would definatly do it again, although maybe not on Disney. My husband and I recently took a Disney Cruise for our Honeymoon. We took this cruise in June and chose 4 nights at see. We stayed in the cheapest...
My husband & I took our 4 year old on the Wonder, and it was truly a magical vacation. although Disney is more expensive than other lines, it is definitely worth the extra cost!!The ship is breathtaking, and the rooms are quite large. We had an...
My family and I take a cruise every December and this year we booked with the Disney Cruise Lines on the Magic. The ship was truly beautiful and the accommodations were outstanding. My children are 13 and 10 and the activities were age appropriate and...
Pros: high quality, great atmosphere Cons: children must be 3 to participate in programs
My family and I took a 4 day cruise on the Wonder when it first debuted in September 1999. I can honestly say this was too short of a cruise, we could have easily spent a whole week on the ship and not grown tired of it! The only downfall to this short...
Pros: visual beauty; cuisine Cons: location of spa; small cafeteria
Disney is still very young to the cruise industry, but they are catching on quickly. I have enjoyed a 3 day voyage on each of the two ships; the Magic in October 1998, and the Wonder in October 1999. On the first voyage, I was spellbound by the dazzling...
Pros: Disney Dreams is an all-time favorite Cons: Voyage of the Ghost Ship is slow moving
PLEASE NOTE: This report is being posting under both the Wonder and the Magic, as the shows are the same on both ships.
Although I've written general reviews of Disney Cruise Line, I'm going to try a few that focus on specific areas. Since we have...
Pros: So much to do, excellent food, everything else. Cons: Kind of expensive.
My husband and I knew when we got engaged that our honeymoon would be in Disney World. Somehow we decided to combine that with a cruise and are so glad that we did! It was the perfect honeymoon!
First off, this cruise is expensive. More so than other cruises. Second, we paid more to go over the Christmas holidays, so we sacrificed to get there. When we arrived in Pt. Canaveral Florida with our shorts and t-shirts it was about 45 degrees outside ...
Pros: Kids club was amazing! Cons: 4 night cruise was too short.
I don't know who had more fun, the children or myself. I am a huge Disney fan and was in heaven the whole trip. My husband is not a Disney fan at all but has already said he'd like to go on a 7 night next time. The only complaint from the children (6...
Pros: Infant friendly ship, Amazing Service, Incredible positivity Cons: Traveling with an infant DOES limit adult activity
Many of the attached reviews explain the basics of why Disney has again mastered customer service -- this time in the cruise ship industry. The service alone is a reason to pay the extra money to choose Disney, as their cruiseline follows their lead ...
Pros: Great staterooms, free drink station, seamless service, gorgeous ship. Cons: In room breakfast not advertised as an option. Late seating is too late.
I just returned from a 7-day Land and Sea Disney Vacation (which included a 4-day cruise on the Disney Wonder). I chose this cruise because my mother just loves to cruise, and my 4-year old son was ready for a trip to Disney World. So, me, my husband, ...
Pros: Excellent service, food, facilities Cons: Bahamas was a bust. Need more time at Castaway Cay which was great fun
My pre-teen son and I took a Disney cruise in February. It was our first cruising experience so I had no preset expectations or any point of comparison.
The service was spectacular from the airport, shuttle, boarding, ship service,...
Pros: Terrific staff, quiet staterooms, spotless ship, excellent kids' programs Cons: Not much for seniors-- boring at times. Pools are crowded as is Castaway Key.
My wife and I took our son, his wife, and her two kids, 5 and 9, on a 4-day cruise. The 9-year-old has CP and uses a wheelchair or crutches. From our arrival at Orlando airport, Disney was on top of everything. They handled the luggage, got us to Port ...
Pros: Biggest pros: DISNEY CHARACTERS AND PALO'S!!! Cons: Notable: No day at sea, but who cares anyway?
My mother and I went on a three-day cruise aboard the Disney Wonder to Nassau and Castaway Cay for my 19th birthday and the tenth anniversary of sailing with Disney Cruise Line last August. We embarked the ship rather early (some four or so hours ...
My family just returned from a Disney Cruise. We went for a family reunion (in other words, not our idea). Our immediate family consists of 2 adults and 2 kids 8&6, we are not Disney fans. This was our first cruise, and most likely our last. The ...
Pros: Amazing crew, great food, first class entertainment, tons of activities Cons: A little more money than most, thought some things would have been included
My wife and I reciently returned from the most amazing honeymoon. A seven night "Land and Sea" package from Disney. First off 3 nights at a Disney resort, then 4 nights aboard the Disney Wonder. With your package all transers to and from the Orlando...
Pros: impeccable service, balconies on many cabins, great theater Cons: terrible bus service from orlando airport to port canaveral
My best friend and I sailed on the 3 day Disney Wonder sailing in October of 2001. We are both in our 30s and worried a little that the ship would be overrun with kids and kids activities.
We found this not to be the case. There were PLENTY of kids...
Pros: Disney goes all out for a luxurious experience. Cons: This luxurious experience can be costly
...Its to go on another Disney Cruise. I have sailed on the Wonder twice. The first time was in November of 2000 and the most recent was in January of 2005. The weather was perfect in November, but a little chillier than I would have liked in January. ...
We went on the Disney Wonder with our children in October. We chose to take the Disney cruise because we wanted to give our kids a vacation they would love. We had to pay for two rooms because we have 5 children and they would not allow us all in one...
Pros: The best vacation ever! Cons: Drinks not included and expensive
What can I say...Disney is first class.
We took the cruise with several adults and children of various ages. There was something for everyone. The kids loved the camp and preferred that to doing stuff with the family. There was babysitting...
Pros: The most relaxing 3 days of my life Cons: I've lived about 19,000 days.
From the moment we walked onto the deck of the Wonder, I knew I had put off cruising far too long. I had nothing to compare it to. I had never been on a cruise, but I liked what I saw. We were immediately sent to Parrot Cay restaurant where we were...
Pros: Excellent service & food. Wonderful for Kids Cons: Might be quite expensive if you need a sitter for children under age 3.
We sailed on the 3 day cruise to the Bahamas and just returned on 12/7/03. We really enjoyed it. The food was spectacular. The service was outstanding. We had the cheapest room- category 11 and were treated like queens. We did not take our children ...
Pros: Disney Dreams show, Castaway Cay Cons: Too short
Where do I begin to describe our “Wonder”ful Disney cruise #15? After so many times, cruising on Disney’s ships is like coming home for my husband and I. Even when we think it’s impossible for the trips to get any better, the crew manages to outdo...
Pros: It's an awesome adventure you will never forget. Cons: there are none
Hey, unlike all the other opinions about this ship, I'm a teenager writing this, and I don't sit there telling you with a huge vocabulary how incredable this voyage is. I just tell you out straight. It's cool. Adults would use some nonsence words...
Pros: Disney characters, shows, children's activities Cons: Nassau
I was on the Disney Wonder sailing 8/31/00 with my husband, our 12-year-old daughter, my sister, her husband, and their daughters, ages 6 and 3. We arrived in Orlando on 8/27/00 as we had chosen the 7 day land/sea package. The land part, at the...
Pros: Entertainment Variety, Fine Dining, Exceptional Service, Castaway Cay Cons: Bahamas, 4day cruise too short
We took the 4 day cruise on the 1st of February'01. The day began by checking in, dropping off your luggage(it goes to your room). While your waiting for your luggage to arrive you should go to the all you can buffet, which is really good. After that we...
Pros: Relaxing, lots of activities, smooth vacation Cons: not long enough
We went in January on a 4 day cruise with my husband, myself and our two sons, ages 11 and 5. We had a balcony stateroom on the 7th deck about midship. We had already sailed on the Disney Magic the year before and had loved it. The Wonder experience was...
Pros: great kids activities Cons: poor return flight planning
I just returned from an early December Cruise on the Disney Wonder. I found the service to be excellent, the restaurants on board were great. I would only recommend this cruise for families as it is quite child oriented.The rooms were large, elegant and...
Hey, unlike all the other opinions about this ship, I'm a teenager writing this, and I don't sit there telling you with a huge vocabulary how incredable this voyage is. I just tell you out straight. It's cool. Adults would use some nonsence words...
Pros: ship amenities, private island stop Cons: adult activity scheduling
The Disney Cruise experience is wonderful families but has drawbacks for travelers without children. The ship is magnificent with innovations not available on other cruise lines such as rotational dining and split bathrooms. The food is average but good....

I am a travel agent, and I took my family on a 3-day cruise on the Disney Wonder in November. My son is 9. He is the only one that enjoyed the cruise.

Pros: It is all you could want from a cruise Cons: You won't want to leave the ship
As you sail out of the harbor, the horn of the ship foretells the wonderful vacation you are about to enjoy. The cruise is a truly wonderful experience for all ages. There are age geared activities that will entertain children, teens, and adults...
Pros: Service, activities, itinerary, food, everything! Cons: Pricey, but you get what you pay for!
For our first time on a cruise, it was the best family vacation, EVER. Expensive, but worth every penny. We did the land/sea vacation starting out at the Beach Club Resort for 3 nights and on to the Disney ship for the remaining 4 nights. I wish we had ...
Pros: No other cruise line will do...must have the Characters! Cons: Disney does not offer any last minute deals for unsold cabins.
If you are looking for a last minute deal to the Bahamas, other cruise lines will discount up to 75%...Not Disney. Their prices go up at the last minute and they have no problem sailing at less than full capacity. Although many discount travel web...
The Disney Wonder is a beautifully designed ship, and has an excellent exterior design. It may not be that cool inside the ship, but you will get used to the temperature. The rooms are very spacious for ships....my room had a couch, 2 chairs, bed,...
Pros: The ship is done in Disney fashion, OUTSTANDING Cons: It costs more than other cruise lines
The Disney Wonder is a great ship. There are bigger but none better. I will be going on the wonder again this November and this will be my 4th sailing with Disney and the love never fades. The best part for me is Disney’s private island. They dock...
Pros: Clean, Spacious, First-Class food and entertainment and FUN! Cons: Four days wasn't long enough!
My mom retired in December, 2007 and we planned a family cruise to celebrate. We went on the Disney Wonder for 4 days in early May, 2008. There were 10 of us total. My parents (each in their 60's), my brother and sister-in-law (no kids, love night ...
Pros: Character greetings, shows in theatre, great Disney service. No surprises Disney does everything right consistently. Cons: The food taste could be better.

Pros: Food, Service, and Amazing Memories Cons: Expensive for the average family
Our first cruise was on the Disney Wonder in January 2006. We were so excited to see what the ship and journey had to offer. It surpassed all our expectations. My son's only disappointment was he left his baby sister at home with Grandma. We loved ...
Pros: It was great everyone had fun. Cons: There were none it was one of the best week of my life.

Pros: Food, Entertainment, Castaway Cay, Service Cons: Too short, Pricey
We went in March 08 for a 4 night. If you have ever been to WDW you know the service they give, but this went high above that! I never saw any unhappy cast members at all. Everyone seemed like they truely didn't mind working. The food was great and they ...
Pros: Value, Service, Room Size, Friendliness of staff, New ship, shows, food, butternut squash soup Cons: only 1 shuffleboard court, need to decorate the old espn shop
We just arrived last night from the cruise and had a great time. The soda mugs are gone and the stickers are back which made it easier for guests as they didnt have to lug around a huge mug. I opted for the beer mug for $10 which is like buying 2 for 1...
Pros: Castaway Cay-Daily schedule very helpful-Beverage station-Shows-Cabin set up-Transportation to and from ship Cons: Price- Adults w/o kids standing in the front of the deck shows blocking childrens view

First let me qualify myself as absolutely loving anything Disney - we've been to Disney World 10 times over 12 years and always spend a bundle and don't care about the cost cause we love going there. Additionally we're very experienced cruisers and have ...
Pros: Castaway Cay!! Cons: Lots of kids, but that's expected
My new wife and I spent 7 nights in Walt Disney World and then did the 4-day cruise on the Wonder. It was great! I'm a big fan of Disney and my wife wanted to go on a cruise so we compromised with the Disney Cruise. It was by far the best part of our...
Pros: the best place in the world (Disney World)-on the water! Cons: expensive
Disney World is known as the happiest place on Earth. And now you can share that happiness with your family on the ocean! Taking a cruise to the Bahamas! Imagine this: a boat trip, a tropical island, and Disney World, all in one! The price to take...
Pros: The customer service Cons: none, except it was expensive (but worth it)
This vacation was added 10 years to my life. My family consisted of my wife my 12 year old daughter and her 12 year old step-sister. We took the 3 day in DisneyWorld and 4 day cruise package back in February. First of all Disney takes care of moving...
Pros: Great time, very relaxing Cons: Little time on the private island
My wife and I took the 3 day sea 4 day land cruise for our honeymoon. It was incredible! Once we got on the ship we were welcomed and made to feel at home. The time on the ship was great, everything was spotless and no hustle and bustle. Very relaxed...
Pros: Beautiful, good food, great service, fun Cons: nassau, 3-day trip too short
I went on the Disney Wonder as an extension to 4 days at Disney World. The ship was beautiful, the staff was incredibly friendly, the food was good, and the activities were plentiful. The only two things that weren't so good was the first destination to...
Pros: Kids Activities, Staff Attention, Dining, Atmosphere, Castaway Cay, Convenience Cons: Cost can be prohibitive(Save for it - it is worth it!)
We did the land and sea vacation 3 nights at the park and New Orleans Riverside resort(Disney arranged it so we actually got 4 days) and 4 nights at sea Nassau and Castaway Cay. From the time we got off the plane were greeted and were transported ...
Pros: Great for the Kids Cons: Sort of good for the parents
This cruise is amazing. The Disney Wonder is amazing for the kids. The parents can have some fun also, but its more for the kids. The activities are amazing. The Rooms are very nice and comfortable. The cruise is very pretty and decorative. The sleeping...
Pros: Perfect family vacation. There was something for all ages! Cons: No joined cabins for larger families.
I recently took 7 children on a Disney Cruise to the Bahamas. I can not tell you how wonderful it was! At first I was terrified of traveling with so many children, but the staff on ship made it a breeze. As parents, we were issued a pager so that we ...

Pros: Very clean, large state rooms Cons: missing that Disney Magic
I was on a 3 day cruise to the bahamas. For me the magic of wdw was missing. I was very disappointen in the lack of characters and jsut did not get that special feeling that you get at the magic kingdom. Instead of a magical journey it was just a...
Pros: Outgoing, friendly staff; excellent food; lots of activities. Cons: I contimplated this and could not come up with anything that was wrong with this trip.
In April, my family and I cruised to the Bahamas on this ship. The treatment was first class all the way. The cabins were beautiful, and champagne was chilling upon our arrival. The cabin steward introduced himself and said to call on him at any time...
Pros: rooms being a bit bigger than other cruise lines and the Disney shuttle Cons: pricey, no characters in view, long lines for a pic, food, and service
PLEASE READ THIS ONE THIS IS A TRUE REVIEW!!!!!I just went on the 4 day Bahamas cruise with my family. We had 3 Ocean View staterooms. The rooms are roomier than other cruise lines but that is about the only Pros on this cruise ...
After a much anticipated wait of nearly a year, my family (2 adults, 2 children, aged 3 and 6) set sail for a 4 night cruise to the Bahamas. Unfortunately, it fell very short of my expectations. Let me first state that the service and evening entertainment was spectacular. However, for the price of the cruise you have to endure long lines, VERY crowded, small pools where kids are bumping into each other constantly (and I went during low season), parents constantly yelling at their kids, limited lounge chairs available by the pools most times, and the pool entertainment was far too loud.
As a huge Disney fan, I travel to Florida every year to do the parks, but was so disappointed on this particular Disney excursion.
Pros: everything Cons: booking next cruise aboard IS NOT necessarily cheaper as they advertise
I just traveled with an 81-yr old mother in a wheelchair and a 10 yr-old son. We ALL had a great time. My son went to the oceaneer's lab as he pleased while mom and I enjoyed movies at their movie theater or just chilled out by the pools.
Even with a wheelchair in tow we never felt unable to do anything or go anywhere.
There are sufficient elevators all over and ramps where necessary.
Our room, category 11, was larger than any hotel room we've stayed at. Even the bathroom accommodated the wheelchair without problems.
We just traveled 3 nights, will soon book a 4-nighter.
Pros: kid's activities were great Cons: Food service was lacking the disney crispness, no pixie dust here
I was totally disappointed in the lack of disneyesque service. Cruise and activities were great but the dining services were inconsistant at best. Palo's was terific and right up to par dinner service overall was acceptable but not by disney standards. Breakfast in parrot cay was infuriating we got the typical low end cruise couldn't care less attitude. Servers openly commented about passengers, I asked for a spoon got the "not my job" blank stare. I could have saved a couple of thousand dollars for the down right crappy service that was prevalent throughout. On the last day I watched a white coated maitre'd pull a family from line at Tritons because they missed their 7 am seating, they were second in a line of about thirty people waiting for the eight o'clock seating and they were made to leave and told to have the buffet on the ninth deck if they wanted to eat. they had kid's and luggage but no matter off they were sent. I felt bad for them but then mr white coat nabbed us too. Old walt would be rolling in his grave.
