The Disney Dream, the cruise line’s third ship, took design and innovation to new heights when it debuted in 2011.

The Disney Cruise aesthetic remains, with a 1930s style pervading the ship. Walk around and you’ll pass by stunning murals, sparkling furnishings, and Art Deco touches. The Dream, however, is 40-percent larger than its predecessors, featuring 1,250 staterooms for 4,000 passengers and a host of gorgeous public spaces. Overall, Disney enhances the ship’s classic appearance with state of the art technology and convenient facilities specifically for families.

Staterooms & Dining

One character remains present throughout all staterooms onboard the Disney Dream: a yacht club, with contemporary amenities. Rooms feature split bathrooms – specifically for families – and even the smallest accommodates three to four people.

Standard rooms include Ocean View spaces with Verandahs or Inside Cabins, with features and amenities going up to the Concierge 1-Bedroom Suite and Concierge Royal Suite With Verandahs. These upscale rooms feature master bedroom and living room spaces, with upgraded amenities.

Disney divides the ship’s dining between elegant, adults-only spaces and themed, family restaurants. Options onboard the Dream include:

Animators Palate: Dine in a restaurant inspired by – you guessed it – decades of Disney animation.

Cabanas: This outdoor dining spot focuses on fresh, made-to-order foods.

Enchanted Garden: With the Garden of Versailles as inspiration, this restaurant serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner for all ages.

Flo’s Café and Preludes: These two casual restaurants are the perfect spots for grabbing a quick bite as you go about the ship.

Activities

The Disney Dream comes designed with three pools – one for children, another for families, and a third just for adults – and several nightclubs and lounges in The District. As well, you and your children can watch spectacular entertainment onboard, such as musicals, first-run movies in 3D, and a fireworks show, but the true heart of activities – and the aspect making Disney different from most cruise lines – is the Youth Clubs.

For kids and teens, each club presents an interactive, immersive program, with delightful, bright spaces throughout the ship. The Dream features:

Nursery: For all children under 3 years of age.

Disney Oceaneer Club: This children’s activity center presents a colorful space for playing dress-up, computer games, and more supervised activities.
