Follow Along on Our Very Merrytime Cruise on the Disney Dream
We are so excited to announce that we’re about to set sail with Disney Cruise Line on a Very Merrytime Cruise on the Disney Dream on November 30! We’ll be enjoying a 4-night Caribbean Cruise with stops in Nassau, a day on Castaway Cay, and plenty of holiday fun! We hope you’ll sail away with us and follow along during another DisneyLists.com cruise week! Learn more about our upcoming trip below!
1 – Cruising
Chad and I have enjoyed fourteen cruises over the years and like to cruise as often as possible. We have enjoyed four cruises on Disney Cruise Line, and each cruise has been so special. Over the years, we’ve learned a lot about cruising, and we try to share that knowledge with our readers. For this cruise, our oldest daughter, Adelei, will be joining us on her first Disney cruise! We are very excited that she could step away from college for a few days to experience the magic that is a Disney cruise! Adelei will assist us with the media coverage since she is a Marketing/Social Media major. Be sure to follow us on Instagram for tons of cruise coverage!
2 – Disney Cruise Line
In 2023, Disney Cruise Line celebrated its 25th Anniversary! Since its inception, it has established itself as a leader in the cruise industry, providing a setting where families can reconnect, adults can recharge, and children can experience all Disney has to offer. The Disney fleet includes five ships: Disney Magic, Disney Wonder, Disney Dream, Disney Fantasy, and Disney Wish. The sixth ship, the Disney Treasure, will set sail in December 2024! Itineraries include locations such as the Caribbean, Bahamas, Alaska, Europe, and most recently Sydney, Australia! Some of our best cruise experiences have been on Disney Cruise Line, and we love the unique experience only Disney can provide at sea.
3 – Disney Dream
The Disney Dream is the third ship in the Disney Cruise Line fleet. On the Disney Dream, guests embark on an adventure aboard the AquaDuck, a 765-foot long water coaster that suspends riders high above the sea; get lost in a magical tale of love during an exclusive live performance of Disney’s “Beauty and the Beast”; rediscover beloved stories, songs, and characters during other Broadway-style stage spectaculars; and enjoy much-needed “me time” at dedicated kids’ clubs and adult escapes. This will be our second cruise on the Disney Dream, and we’re very excited to get more time on this awesome ship and, of course, share what we discover with you!
4 – Very Merrytime Cruise
From time to time, Disney Cruise Line offers themed vacations for guests to enjoy on select sailings. Themed offerings include Halloween on the High Seas, Very Merrytime Cruises, Marvel Day at Sea, and the newest offering, Pixar Day at Sea. This year, Disney Cruise Line is updating its holiday offerings! With two brand-new entertainment experiences, Disney characters dressed in jolly new looks, and celebratory activities for the whole family, Disney Cruise Line will be filled with the spirit of the holidays this year. We’re particularly excited to experience Castaway Cay with the holiday theming. We’ll also experience “snow flurries,” a decked-out Christmas tree, Disney character meet-and-greets, and holiday island music. We are very excited to enjoy our second Very Merrytime Cruise and can’t wait to share it with you!
5 – Four-Night Bahamian Cruise
The Disney Dream sets sail from a new South Florida home in Fort Lauderdale, offering four- and five-night Very Merrytime cruises to tropical locales in the western Caribbean and Bahamas. Our cruise is a four-night Bahamian cruise, and we’ll enjoy a stop in Nassau, Bahamas, and Disney Castaway Cay. Disney’s Castaway Cay, a 1,000-acre private island with turquoise waters, powdery white sand beaches, and swaying palm trees exclusive to Disney Cruise Line guests. With an authentic island barbecue and plenty of snorkeling and water sports, Castaway Cay provides a day of adventure, relaxation, and quality time with the family. I just love Castaway Cay and everything that the island has to offer.
