I truly believe that Disney Cruise Lines is the best cruise company for families, especially if they love Disney.
From the stellar service, delicious food, planning assistance, fantastic entertainment, and even better destinations, Disney Cruises is on a level of its own.
But the craziest part is that although everyone is treated like royalty as soon as they step onboard, there’s a higher class of service, amenities, and benefits that only select guests can experience called Concierge, which is the equivalent to Club Level rooms found at Disneyland and Disney World.
But onboard and even before you embark on your journey, you get access to so many great benefits and perks reserved exclusively for you.
All Concierge Benefits
Here’s a quick breakdown of the benefits you’ll get as a Concierge stateroom guest.
Pre-Arrival
Before you step onboard, the concierge service starts at home.
- Pre-reserve almost every onboard activity up to 120 days prior to your sale date.
- 130 days before your cruise, you can email or call the concierge team to basically guarantee a reservation for adult exclusive dining, popular excursions, and even Cabanas at Castaway Cay
At the Cruise Terminal
When you arrive at the port terminal, here’s what you can expect:
- A dedicated check-in line
- You can arrive at any time after 11 am
- After you got through security, a Cast Member will greet you and escort you to your Concierge waiting area
- You’ll be the first onboard
On The Ship
As soon as you step foot on the ship, the Concierge level of service truly starts to shine.
- A private lunch at one of the main three restaurants only for Concierge Guests
- Upgraded amenities in your stateroom such as a pillow menu, upgraded linens, mini-fridge, and high-end toiletries
- Exclusive access to the Concierge Lounge and private sundeck (most of which include a hot tub and comfy lounge chairs). So far, the Wish has the best setup.
- Inside of the Concierge Lounge, you’ll find complimentary snacks, coffee, bottled beverages, and even alcohol (5 to 10 pm daily)
- On the Wish, you have early access to choose your seats before any of the shows inside of the Walt Disney Theater
- Complimentary fresh popped popcorn whenever you want
- Private dining tables at all of the restaurants
- 24 hours of complimentary basic surf internet for everyone 18 and older
- Pre-paid gratuities for your housekeeper and dining server team
Disembarkation
When your cruise ends, you get to use the Disembarkation service.
- Once the ship clears customs, you can meet your Concierge team in the lounge where they’ll escort you down the elevator (express with no stops) and provide you with quick exit off the ship without having to wait in any lines
…
So if this is something that intrigues you, and you don’t mind spending a little bit more to experience a concierge level stateroom then I recommend that you give it a shot, even it it’s just a 3-day cruise to the Bahamas.
