The Watch-outs

This corner view suite on deck 5 is not as advertised.

the technology with msse is atrocious yeah it is so bad the website the app none of it works

This is a Wi-Fi router that is in your room... it is constantly flashing red and green all night long.

there was a dirty Q-tip um there was like a bathing suit liner um there was a clip toenail on our balcony

It does not have a walk-in closet. The couch is in the same room as the bed. We do not have four windows.

Pro Tips From Creators

The most-shared advice for Professional Weekenders.

  1. Plan accordingly for castle photo opportunities due to moat renovation.

  2. Check ride reopening dates before booking a vacation in late March or early April.

  3. Consider visiting in May 2026 for Big Thunder Mountain if coming in April.

  4. Book a suite for priority check-in and boarding to avoid long lines.

  5. Use priority disembarkation for early port access if you have an early flight.

  6. Take advantage of free soda and drinks from the concierge to save money.

  7. Do not click the 'let them select room at the lowest rate' option.

  8. Select your own room to avoid deck 5.
