Aboard the Disney Cruise Line’s ships you will find no shortage of magic, and the Disney Cruise Line Magic is no exception. “Magic” is the name! From well-appointed staterooms, to the awe-inspiring atrium, to the “Magical Extras” available during your cruise, magic is everywhere. The Magic is Disney Cruise Line’s very first ship and includes Broadway-style shows, adults-only fine dining, enchanting family dining, the AquaDunk waterslide, Senses Spa, and the kids’ clubs Andy’s Room and the Marvel Super Hero Academy. Royal Carriage Vacation experts have rounded-up the most magical extras onboard in this article. Keep reading to not only find out which experiences are our favorites, but to learn exclusive tips and tricks for your next cruise aboard the Magic.
Royal Court Royal Tea: Bring your Prince or Princess (ages 3-12) to be treated like royalty and meet some of the most popular princesses at the Royal Court Royal Tea. This is a very popular experience and usually fills up prior to sailing. Be sure to book your cruise with Royal Carriage Vacations because they will be able to secure this hard-to-secure reservation for you. Royal Carriage Vacations travel agents also provide free expert travel planning services and give their clients onboard credit to use towards onboard experiences like this or port adventures, which they can also secure for you! Tip: Have your camera at the ready and have your princess or prince seated closest to the aisle where the princesses will meet and greet.
Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique: Make dreams come true at this enchanted salon where kids can be transformed into knights, princesses, sea captains, or even pirates! This experience is highly sought after, so make sure to let your Royal Carriage Vacations travel agent know this is something you’d like to book right away. This is a fantastic experience to book the morning of the Royal Court Tea. Tip: Anyone can have their hair pixie dusted (even adults who are watching their child’s bibbidi bobbidi transformation).
Kids Clubs: Onboard guests will find three different kids clubs separated by ages. The “it’s a small world” nursery is a whimsical daycare center for children ages 6 months to 3 years of age. Andy’s Room is located inside the Oceaneer Club and available for kids ages 3-10 years old. In this magical area kids get to slide down the Slinky Dog slide, go on a scavenger hunt with Jessie, or even create their own Mr. Potato Head. The Marvel Super Hero Academy is also available for children ages 3-10 where they can participate in various arts and crafts activities, play video games, or meet their favorite superheroes!
Staterooms Available on the Disney Cruise Line Magic: Spread out and relax in one of Disney Cruise Line’s staterooms that are specially designed for family comfort. All of the stateroom categories aboard Disney Cruise Line ships include a refrigerator and a “split” bathroom. Inside staterooms include a “magical” porthole that allows guests a real-time video-stream of the outside view, and oceanview staterooms have either one large porthole window or two porthole windows. Verandah staterooms allow guests to relax on their own private balcony, and concierge guests have access to exclusive perks. Below are photos of a 9C category oceanview stateroom taken by a Royal Carriage Vacations agent.
No matter if you are looking for a thrilling vacation or a way to relax and unwind at sea, (or even a little of both) a magical Disney Cruise Line experience has something for everyone. Make sure to contact your Royal Carriage Vacations agent to book a sailing aboard the Magic.
