Disney Fantasy Cruise Ship

Tour of Disney Fantasy Cruise Review

The Disney Fantasy is the fourth ship in the Disney Cruise Line fleet and is like a floating Disney park, filled with great experiences your entire family will enjoy. If you are planning a Disney Fantasy Cruise here are the things you can look forward to:

Disney Fantasy Atrium

The Disney Fantasy is designed in an Art Nouveau style with a notable peacock flourish both on the ceiling and on the floor. The focal point of the atrium is the massive stained-glass chandelier.

Around the atrium lobby and throughout the Disney Fantasy you will find Enchanted Art. These magical art pieces will come alive as you look at them.

Interior Room on the Fantasy

Disney Fantasy Stateroom

One thing that sets the Disney Fantasy apart from the older Disney ships is that 88% of the staterooms are outside rooms and most have a verandah.

This means that while more expensive than interior rooms, these outside rooms are also easier to reserve. 

If you don’t get to stay in a verandah room, not to worry. The interior rooms are pretty special too. Each one has a magical port hole that changes during the time of your cruise.

You never know who or what you may see! It is a real treat when you get to see Disney characters appear and kids love the unexpected fun!

No matter which type of Disney Cruise stateroom you stay in, all Disney Fantasy Staterooms feature a spit bath and come with plenty of closet and storage space. 

Disney Fantasy Pool Deck

If pool time is what you need, Disney Fantasy offers many different options.

You will find Mickey’s Pool which gives the kids an area to get wet while parents sit nearby,  Donald’s Pool which is the main pool featuring a big movie screen and a small wading pool with a fountain with plenty of shady spots to sit.

This waterslide takes you on a ride around the ship where you will even go over the ocean for a brief period of time! 

Younger kids will enjoy splashing in the AquaLab—a water play area featuring pop jets, geysers and bubblers.

Not only will you find pools and waterslides, you will also plenty of places to grab food on the go when you want to eat poolside.

Guests of all ages will enjoy watching movies poolside while they relax in the sun (or the shade).
