While these areas are not particularly noteworthy, they do offer easy access to free food and drinks and coveted extra space. The concierge is on hand before and during your cruise to help with reservations, activity planning and other needs. Deluxe Family Oceanview staterooms, found on Decks 6 through 9, are a bit roomier at 241 square feet and can sleep up to five people. Twenty-five cabins across categories are wheelchair-accessible, including two suites. One annoyance is that the main beds in each cabin are queens, but they don't convert into twins.
Disney Magic Inside Cabins Have the Same Amenities as Oceanview and Verandah Staterooms
The room service menu is hidden rather well inside the large Disney Cruise Line book. The room service menu for breakfast foods is also in the drawer, but it’s printed on some paper door hangers. If you would like room service breakfast any night but the last night, you use this order form and hang it outside your door the night before.
Best Staterooms on a Disney Cruise
There’s also some space under the desk, as well as steamer trunks in some rooms on the Wonder (though these seem to be disappearing) and a nice dresser where steamer trunks used to be in some rooms. The Dream and Fantasy also have coffee tables that open up for even more storage! And finally there’s a desk with drawers and some cabinets over that. As with some of the other items, concierge rooms have even more storage space than normal rooms. To raise the level of convenience, all Disney Magic staterooms have a split-bath configuration, with a toilet and sink in one room and a shower–tub combo and second sink in another.
Deluxe Oceanview Stateroom with Verandah
Like on all DCL ships, passenger staterooms on Disney Wish by sizes are ranked among the industry's largest standard cabins, designed to easily accommodate four people. Maybe it’s the gentle sway of the ocean, maybe it’s the $1500 sheets, or the perfect pillows, but I sleep like a baby on a cruise. Now that the rooms on all four ships have been updated, none of the beds separate into two twins as you find on many other lines.

The elevators midship are generally busier and therefore are louder, but on the other hand, you also have close access to the stairwell & elevators to get to other decks quickly. Also, the closer you are to mid ship the more expensive the room is. Inside staterooms with no windows on a lower deck either near the front (forward) or back (aft) are the least expensive. There's no balcony in this suite, but passengers will find that private elevator access and a staircase leading out to the base of the funnel -- and the Sun Deck beyond -- eases that pain. Rooms designed for those with accessibility needs, or those with visual cues, are offered across several stateroom categories.
Disney Dream Concierge Suites Offer More Space and Great Perks
Good news for those that like to sleep in the middle of the bed, bad news for some single travelers. In standard staterooms categories 5-11 on the Wonder and Magic, and 5-7 and 9-11 on the Dream and Fantasy, there is also a couch that converts into a single bed and a single that pulls down from the ceiling in most rooms. Not all rooms have that pull down, so if you are a family of three with a little one that really wants to sleep in the super cool bed that pulls down from the ceiling, make sure you are booked in a stateroom that has one. In categories 8 on the Dream and Fantasy, and 4 on all the ships, there is also a pull down murphy type bed.
Concierge Family Balcony Cabin
On the other hand, if you plan to spend most of your time exploring ports and partaking in onboard activities, the type and location of cabin might be of less importance. If budget matters above all else, an interior cabin is a wise choice. You could also save money by booking a saver fare offered by some cruise lines. Perhaps more so than the accommodation grade, the cabin location can significantly impact your cruise experience. The Disney Fantasy is based out of Port Canaveral but was in the Atlantic Ocean about 180 miles northwest of Aguadilla, Puerto Rico.

The Concierge 2-Story Royal Suite with Verandah on the Disney Wish cruise ship is a luxurious and spacious stateroom that spans two decks (decks 12 and 13). The Suite features a spiral staircase, two large bedrooms, three full bathrooms, a large dining and living area, and two large verandahs with a private hot tub. The 1,781-square-foot suites named for Walt Disney and Roy Disney (aka the Royal Suites) have all the amenities of the Concierge-level cabins, plus a living room, wet bar, kitchenette, media library and hot tub on a teak veranda. These each sleep five people and offer one large bedroom and two bathrooms.
In categories 8D, 8C, 8B, 4 and V on the Dream and Fantasy, there are actually round tubs! The V on the Magic and Wonder, and R, S and T on all ships have a whole ‘nother level of bathrooms and tubs. The tub in the 1-bedroom suites on the Dream and Fantasy is more like a small pool. Like on all DCL ships, passenger staterooms on Disney Destiny by sizes are ranked among the industry's largest standard cabins, designed to easily accommodate four people. Cabins are with ample storage space, lounge/living area and split bathrooms (1 room with shower-bathtub-sink-WC, and separate toilet-sink).
Deluxe Family Oceanview cabins are with floor-ceiling window, Queen-size double bed (non-convertible), single sofabed, upper bunk bed, Murphy bed, full bathroom (shower-bathtub), split bathroom (washbasin-toilet). The master bedrooms are both on the Penthouse's upper level and have walk-in closets, King-size double beds with premium mattresses, floor-ceiling windows (overlooking the living area below). The 1,781-square-foot Roy O Disney Suite (officially known as the Royal Suite) has all the amenities of a Concierge suite, plus a wet bar, kitchenette, dining table for eight, and a media library. The main bathroom features double sinks and a rainfall shower as well as a jetted bathtub. These staterooms are much larger than the standard size (around 240 sq ft), sleeping between 3 and 5 people comfortably.
Booking “guarantee” stateroom means you get at least this category, but you're not assigned to a specific cabin, Disney just guarantees you a room (at this category rate) and waits to see how the bookings go. As most people book the cheapest cabins, they often sell out. In such cases, Disney may offer cabin upgrades to passengers with first booked lower fare, thus making cheaper cabins available for new customers.
Other notable suites include the two-story Princess Aurora Royal Suites that come with two floors, private balconies, two bedrooms and fittings that rival those found aboard luxury ships. Bulgari toiletries, Italian Frette linens and some of the most astonishing bathrooms we've ever seen at sea, with soaker tubs along wall-to-wall windows. Deluxe Oceanview cabins are with a round-shaped window (large Porthole/non-opening), Queen-size bed (convertible to twins), single sofabed, upper bunk bed or Murphy bed (in quads), full bathroom (shower-bathtub), split bathroom (washbasin-toilet).
There are different theories to this, but generally, if you get sea sick you will want a stateroom with a verandah so you can breathe in fresh air or a room with a porthole. Focusing on the line where the sky meets the sea can help alleviate nausea. Also, having a stateroom in the middle of the ship helps with the rocking feeling.
They are all similar, but they are different based on which ship you are on. On the Magic and Wonder there are several channels, a few of which have Disney movies and new(ish) releases playing all day long. There’s also a view from the bridge, and an information channel showing where you’ve been, where you’re going, what’s the weather, etc.
The wheelchair-accessible cabins on Disney Magic are enormous, and they're available in inside, ocean-view, balcony and suite categories. Accessible cabins on the aft end of the ship also have wider balconies (some 30 feet across). All accessible cabins are equipped with lowered closet bars and, in the bathroom, a ramped threshold, lowered towel bars, toilet grab bars and roll-in shower with a fold-down seat, grab bars and adjustable-height showerhead. There also is an emergency button next to the bed and cord in the bathroom -- both of which must be activated by Guest Services.
Disney Magic ship's smallest "cabins for families of 5" are Category 4 "Deluxe Family Oceanview" (with balcony). However, the cheapest option is to book 2 connecting cabins - Category 9 ("Deluxe Oceanview") or Category 10 ("Deluxe Inside"). The combined (connecting cabin) price is ~2/3 to 3/4 lower (then 1x Family Oceanview).
