The attention to detail is impressive: The movie theater has a concession stand and stadium seating. The spa has a rainforest room with a Turkish bath. And they offer special services for teens in a separate area called the Chill Spa.
But for adults traveling with kids, the best thing about these ships is that children are so well entertained. The kids’ clubs are separated by age groups, and the littlest ones have an impressive nursery. Parents are given a cell phone so they can be reached, allowing them to relax and enjoy a night out. The kids’ club even sends attendants to the dining room to pick children up when they’re done eating, so their parents can finish their meal, have dessert, and linger over an after-dinner drink or two.

And for parents with kids of various ages, it’s a pleasure to take the young ones to the splash park or a character meet-and-greet while the older ones enjoy the water ride (an actual roller coaster), the teen club, the movie theater or miniature golf — and then all meet up to share stories at dinnertime.
Disney is currently offering cruises to the Bahamas and the Caribbean, departing from Miami or Port Canaveral, Fla. In May, the company offers additional itineraries throughout Europe, California and Alaska.
