Imagine a vacation where every member of the family, from grandparents to grandchildren, can experience joy and adventure together. Aboard a Disney cruise, that dream becomes a reality. With its enchanting mix of world-class entertainment, themed dining, and activities tailored for all ages, Disney Magic offers the perfect setting for a multigenerational family getaway.
For this edition we have a special guest, Coasters & Castles Travel agent Ginger Hodges who just returned from a magical four night family vacation aboard the Disney Magic to the Bahamas. They visited Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point in Eleuthera & Nassau Bahamas on their very first Disney Cruise. She's going to give us the run down of their experience and maybe it inspires you to plan your own multigenerational trip!
We traveled with a multigenerational family ranging in ages from 70 all the way to 2 years
old! There were kids, several “tweens” and a teenager included in the bunch.
We arrived a day early and spent the night to make sure we didn’t miss our 12:30 boarding time. Check in was a breeze and we were immediately enjoying the world famous chicken tenders and soft serve ice cream on board before 1 pm!!
The kiddos jumped straight on the AquaDunk slide and I don’t think we saw them again until dinner! First night dining was at Lumiere’s , second & third night we were in Animator’s Palate, finishing up with last night in Rapunzel’s Royal Table celebrating a birthday!! Each night was indeed an experience. From the food, to the servers, even the uniqueness of the menus and decor - we were definitely immersed in the theme!
Lookout Cay was absolutely stunning. We spent almost the whole day laying on the beach and venturing around the island. Breathtaking water, the cleanliness of the beach and all the guest areas were exactly as you would expect from Disney - immaculate!! All the food on the island was amazing. The walk we all fretted over ended up being super easy. We had one in our party with an injured knee and Disney provided shuttles for anyone needing a ride instead of the walking to the island from the ship. No pre-order or registration, just jumped right on.
We also ported at Nassau the next day and took a snorkeling excursion which was super fun since my kids had never done that before. We saw turtles & fish of every color. Not to mention we were in the most beautiful waters in the world, that Bahama blue!
Our state room was ideal for our families. We each had a room with a verandah which was perfect for morning coffee and afternoon quiet time!
The last day was so much fun onboard! We selected from the Navigator App all the things we wanted to accomplish and we just about achieved them all!! Character meet and greets; Star Wars & Marvel Trivia; a free collection charm bracelet at the jewelry counter; ice cream snacks, ping pong, Walt Disney Theatre shows….it was indeed the best vacation yet!!
From shared moments of laughter to peaceful evenings watching the sunset over the ocean, a cruise offers the perfect balance of excitement and relaxation for every age group.
