After spending the summer season in Europe, the Disney Dream will debut some exciting updates this fall when it arrives at its home port in Fort Lauderdale. From an updated Oceaneer Club and a brand-new funnel suite to a new concierge lounge and revamped spa, I’m excited to share these enhancements! (Mental note, make a spa appointment…)
Let’s take a look at what will soon be making waves on the Disney Dream!
Revamped Youth Spaces
Recruits, assemble! A state-of-the-art lab, thanks to members of the Worldwide Engineering Brigade, or “WEB” for short, will be swinging into the Oceaneer Club. At Marvel WEB Workshop, young recruits will be able to test new suit prototypes for Spider-Man and other heroes and conduct training simulations using WEB technology to fend off enemies from the Workshop – no pressure, of course. The best part? Avenger mentors will drop by the workshop to check in on their progress!
Up next is Edge, the tween club for guests ages 11-14, which will move to Deck 5 and debut exciting new features, including access to an outdoor deck with a ball pit and recreational games, all exclusively for Edge and Vibe. Edge will also include a club lounge and dance floor for unforgettable parties with new friends. Are they taking song requests yet?
Fantastical Funnel Suite
What kind of sorcery…
The forward funnel of the Disney Dream is about to completely transform into the Dream Tower Suite! In homage to the Disney Dream’s stern character, Sorcerer Mickey, the all-new, two-story funnel suite will be themed to the classic Walt Disney Animation Studios film, “Fantasia,” and its beloved sequence, “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” (enchanted brooms not included). Full of gilded features that reflect the Disney Dream’s art deco motif, this spectacular suite will immerse guests in Sorcerer Mickey’s magic, including celestial-inspired surroundings, carpet design inspired by flowing water, and a chandelier reminiscent of his famous control of the waves.
Concierge guests will sing “bless my soul!” in the harmonious fashion of the Muses as they enter an expanded Concierge Lounge, an all-new space inspired by the Disney Animation film, “Hercules,” and the heavenly Mount Olympus. The ethereal lounge will have light, airy details and rich colors inspired by the clouds of Mount Olympus, with hints of bright gold evoking the gates to the kingdom of the gods.
Treat Yourself!
Now, to the spa! This tranquil space will have a refreshed check-in area and will expand to include new treatment rooms.
And, last but not least, joining the quick service dining options on Deck 11 will be a guest favorite cantina, offering all your favorite tacos and bowls!
Now, the big question… spa, then tacos? Or tacos, then spa?
While I ruminate on life’s big questions, I’ll note that the Disney Dream will debut these magical enhancements in fall 2024. To book a voyage, guests can visit disneycruise.com.
