Tag Archives: Disney Cruise

One of our absolute favorite vacations is on the Disney Cruise Line.  I was late to the game in discovering the wonder that is cruising, but thanks to my wife, I have found the light.  We first started cruising as a family in 2009 when Hunter was two years old.  We have only been on the Disney ships because of their amazing service, food and destinations.

 

Of the four Disney Cruise ships (as of 2018) we have only been on three of the four as a family (Sawyer has only been on two of them).  While we enjoy the Disney Dream and Fantasy because the their size and offerings, we also the Wonder because it feels a bit more quaint (even though it is pretty massive as well).  On recent cruises we have captured on fun in video.  Check out some of our most popular Disney Cruise videos below:

 

Our favorite Disney Cruise vacation of all of them so far has been the ten night Caribbean cruise that we took in the summer of 2017.  The itinerary was amazing in that it included five island stops at Aruba, Curacao, St. Kitts, Tortola and Disney’s private island of Castaway Cay.  Mixed in between these one of a kind island stops were relaxing days at sea to regroup for the adventures ahead.  Definitely a once in a lifetime vacation but one that we will never forget.

 

Below is a list of the dates and itineraries that we have been on to date.  Those that have hyperlinks have additional blog posts and photos of our travel adventures.

Disney Fantasy Seven Day Summer Cruise – Castaway Cay (Day 7)

Although we were a bit bummed that this was our last full day on our seven night Disney Fantasy Eastern Caribbean cruise, we were super excited that we got to spend it at Disney’s private island of Castaway Cay!  I awoke as the ship was still a ways from Castaway, which gave me time to get my morning GoPro time… Read more »

Reflecting on our Disney Fantasy cruise thus far, it has been nothing short of amazing!  From our embarkation day, to our two travel days at sea, and followed by breathtaking views and memorable experiences in both Tortola and St. Thomas, it has been an outstanding trip.  With St. Thomas now a distant memory, we embarked on the last sea day… Read more »

Day 5 Morning – Breakfast at Cabanas After an absolutely amazing day four at Tortola in the British Virgin Islands, we were equally excited for another port day on beautiful St. Thomas.  We have truly enjoyed our cruise thus far.  Embarkation day provided a perfect opportunity to get settled into the ship.  The two days at sea gave us ample… Read more »

After a fun embarkation day, and two enjoyable days at sea, we were eager for the sight of land which came on day four in the form of Tortola in the British Virgin Islands.  We had arrangements set for a shore excursion that included  a morning of exploration (via open air van), beach time, and a little snorkeling.  Although not… Read more »

Disney Fantasy Eastern Caribbean Day 2 – Day at Sea There is just something fantastic about waking up on a Disney Cruise Ship!  We eased into our day as Emily got some reading done and Hunter caught up on some Bunk’d episodes on demand, while Sawyer slept and I got some time to blog about the fun we had on… Read more »

One of our absolute favorite vacations was finally upon us, a seven night Eastern Disney Cruise on the Fantasy!  We booked the trip about six weeks prior, and Emily had been packing ever since. I got up early so I would have enough time to load the 26-foot U-haul truck that was just barely able to contain our luggage for… Read more »

Our last cruise day had arrived and everyone but me took the opportunity to sleep in. The boys have been going full steam from sun up to sun down and I have never seen them sleep in so late. We finally got everyone upright and ready to go and we headed to breakfast one last time at Cabanas. We art… Read more »

Disney Dream Cruise Vacation 2015 – Day 4, Another Shot at Castaway Cay

      Comments Off on Disney Dream Cruise Vacation 2015 – Day 4, Another Shot at Castaway Cay

As I awoke on day four I had my fingers crossed as I approached our curtains hoping when I pulled them back I would see clear skies over Castaway Cay, and I did!  I lightly encouraged the troops to get their butts out of bed because it was beach or bust today. I am sure this will come as a… Read more »

Day three on the Disney Dream was yet another perfect day on the ship. When we awoke we were still making our way to the island of Nassau in the Bahamas. Due to the fact that we made the most out of the first two days everyone was quite tired and not chomping at the bit to spring out of bed… Read more »

Disney Dream Cruise Vacation 2015 – Day 2, Castaway Cay

      Comments Off on Disney Dream Cruise Vacation 2015 – Day 2, Castaway Cay

I would argue there is no better place in the world to wake up than Castaway Cay. Even though the weather was a bit overcast it still was truly awesome to be docked at the amazing island. Emily was smart and had ordered a few things from room service to help tide us over until breakfast (only on a cruise… Read more »
