Disney's Dream Becomes a Reality
by Roy Witman © 2009

“If you can dream it, you can do it.” - Walt Disney

Walt Disney knew how to dream big, but perhaps even he never imagined anything quite as spectacular as the newest ship from Disney Cruise Line (R), the Disney Dream (TM). Don't let her classic good looks and sleek lines fool you. On board you'll find entertainment and fun for the whole family, just as Walt Disney himself would have wanted. And since it's Disney, there's a little magic waiting for you around every corner.

Shipboard Attractions

The Disney Dream (TM) features the world's only water coaster at sea, AquaDuck TM. This wild ride will propel you through a clear acrylic tube on a river of cool water. You'll plunge from extraordinary heights and be swept up, down, and around on a breathtaking tour of the upper decks. You'll even sail off the side of the ship and back again before splashing into a slow river to catch your breath. Be sure to keep your eyes open on the ride, because the view from up there can't be beat!

For water lovers who prefer a little less excitement, the Disney Dream (TM) features three freshwater pools, each with its own special charm. Donald's Pool is designed with families in mind. Parents and kids of all ages will enjoy relaxing and meeting new friends in this five-foot-deep pool. Younger guests will have a blast in Mickey's Pool, made just for them with a depth of only two feet, and shaped like everyone's favorite mouse. Grownups looking for a little solitude will find it in the aptly named Quiet Cove Pool. Relax in the hot tub, savor a glass of wine from the Cove Bar, or simply marvel at the stunning ocean view.

Evenings are filled with exquisite cuisine from one of nine restaurants, enchanting productions in two shipboard theaters, and drinks and dancing in several adult-only nightclubs. Children will be delighted with the age-appropriate entertainment available on board. Kid-friendly spaces include It's a Small World Nursery for babies and toddlers; Edge, a hangout for tweens; and Vibe, a hip gathering place for teens and their friends.

After a night on the town, you'll love a little pampering at Senses & Spa Salon. Peace and tranquility await you in soothing, private treatment rooms where you can nurture your body and soul with massage, pedicures, spa treatments, aromatherapy, and more. Indulge your senses and emerge refreshed, rejuvenated, and ready to take on the day.

Accommodations

The Disney Dream (TM) features 1,200 staterooms and accommodates 4,000 guests. Every family, from the budget-minded to those accustomed to luxury, will appreciate the well-planned cabins and sleek, contemporary styles. Wood furniture with genuine teak accents gives every room the feel of being aboard a tall sailing ship from days of old. Interior staterooms comfortably sleep three to four, and larger cabins can house up to five guests.

The Disney Dream (TM) will set sail for the Bahamas in January 2011, where she'll offer the perfect mix of luxury and family fun on three-, four-, and five-night cruises. Port Canaveral, the home port of the Disney Dream (TM), is just a short drive from another of Walt Disney's dreams: Walt Disney World (R) resort. Begin a memorable family adventure with a stay at Walt Disney World (R) resort, and finish with an unforgettable cruise aboard the impressive Disney Dream (TM). It's the kind of vacation dreams are made of.
