Welcome aboard, Donna! You must have the countdown to your Disney Cruise Line sail date started already! Next month, you'll embark on a magical vacation on the Disney Fantasy! I'm excited for your family to experience everything that that ship has to offer!
You will love staying on Deck Five, especially if you have children who will be participating in the events and activities in the
Oceaneer Club and Oceaneer Lab, as they are on that deck too. My family has stayed on Deck Five a few times, and really enjoy the quick trip over to the clubs, especially at night when we pick up excited but sleepy kiddos, and have to only walk down the hall to get to bed!
Your staterooms are also right down the hall from the
Buena Vista Theatre which shows first-run Disney films, and right above the
Walt Disney Theatre, where you'll see some fabulous Broadway-style shows at night. You'll enjoy that after the show, you won't have to wait in the elevator lines with the rest of the crowds, as you can walk up one quick flight of stairs to your stateroom!
You will love your connecting staterooms of 5534 and 5536 because they are not only
Deluxe Family Oceanview Staterooms with a Verandah, but you get an extended, oversized verandah, with some extra space to enjoy the gorgeous ocean view! Ask your stateroom host about the possibility of opening the verandah dividers between your connecting staterooms to create a double verandah for you all to enjoy together.
I think you'll really enjoy your staterooms and the location onboard, Donna. Have a wonderful cruise!
