For many guests, the word “Disney” conjures up great experiences for children, but not much for older kids. Teens are too old to enjoy a Disney cruise, right? WRONG! That’s the beauty of a Disney cruise—it offers something for everyone. Babies, toddlers, children, teens, and adults will all find themselves enjoying the magical experiences of the Disney ships!
For most families, the Disney Dream is their first Disney cruise ship experience. The Disney Dream offers 3- and 4- night Bahamian cruises throughout the year, with two departures every week from Port Canaveral. If you’ve visited Walt Disney World, but have never experienced a Disney cruise, set aside a few days on your next vacation to take a short cruise—you won’t regret it!
The teen clubs share the same name on all the Disney ships, although the offerings and locations differ. The Edge is for tweens ages 11-14, and the Vibe is for teens ages 14-17. On the Disney Dream and Disney Fantasy, the Edge is located inside the Forward Funnel on Deck 13. This club offers a colorful, illuminated dance floor, music listening stations, a computer for gaming, karaoke machines, and a Wii gaming room with flat-screen. It’s a tween’s dream hangout!
The Vibe takes up a much larger section of the ship, offering teens a place to chill out, listen to music, watch TV, play group games and more! On the Disney Dream and Disney Fantasy, the Vibe is located on Deck 5, Forward. This area is specially designed for privacy – teens not only have a secret entrance, but also must present a special coded Key to the World card to access the lounge. The high-tech room offers a 103” LCD screen for movies and games. Dance parties and karaoke contests take place in a separate area, designed with a special dance floor and video wall.
In addition to the two clubs, teens also have the option to participate in fun activities at Goofy’s Sports Deck, watch Disney’s Broadway-style shows, watch first-run movies, or get special treatments at the Chill Spa! There are even teen-focused activities once you arrive at Disney’s private island, Castaway Cay. Teen excursions include snorkeling, bike riding, speedboat rides and more. There is no shortage of fun and innovative activities for teens on any Disney cruise!
