STATEROOMS AND SERVICE
  • Lots of cruisers like to personalize their stay by decorating their stateroom doors. The doors are magnetic, so you can create your own magnet art, or check out online stores that sell fun magnets. Some Guests also put a dry erase board on their door so that a passing family members, or even a passing Crew Member, can leave messages for you.

 

  • If you need to wash or iron anything, there are laundry rooms on each floor of the Magic, Wonder, Dream, and Fantasy.  Facilities on the Wish and Treasure are found on Deck 8

 

  • Your luggage should fit nicely under the bed to keep it out of the way and give you more closet space for your belongings.

 

  • Even on the most placid of seas, the Disney Cruise Line vessels will experience some movement. Empty hangers in the closet sometimes tap into one another as a result of the gentle movement of the ship.  If you don’t want to listen to the clicking of the hangers while you rest, simply place the unused hangers into a drawer in your stateroom. 

 

  • When you get into your room, there is a slot near the door to put your room key in. This will turn on the lights and heat/air. However, any card will do. So, if you have an infant card you don’t use while on the ship, or any store rewards card, etc., you can use that instead and keep things on if you like.
