Ahoy, Barbara!
The teen club, Vibe, on all of the Disney ships provide entertainment and activities for teens ages 14 to 17. I have a teen daughter, so I decided to ask her opinion to answer your question. She voted that the
Vibe on both the Disney Dream and the Disney Fantasy (since they are sister ships) are better than on the Disney Magic. Here are some of her reasons:
1. Vibe has its own planned area on the Dream. This area feels like an afterthought on the Disney Magic, but on the newer ships, a huge teen space was planned. There is even a water area for the teens and a "secret" entrance.
2. On the newer ships, Vibe has a bathroom within the club. This was something I wouldn't even consider to be important, but to a teen girl, it is!
3. On the newer ships, you have to be a teen in order to enter Vibe. No parents allowed, except during Open House times. The teens' Key to the World cards are set to open the door at Vibe once they are registered.
4. The Vibe on the Dream has a smoothie bar. Do I need to say more?
So, her vote is a resounding DREAM for your teen, too! I hope this helps with planning your Disney Cruise Line vacation! Please come back to visit me at the Disney Parks Moms Panel with more questions!
Happy Cruising, Tracy V.
