Adult Only Disney Cruise? My Thoughts and Full Review!

I've now taken 5 Disney cruises with a party of adults only. What are my thoughts on sailing on this family cruise line with no kids? Is it good for adults? Going on an adults-only Disney cruise may just be your next favorite thing!

I'm able to keep creating Disney content because of my amazing patrons!

I hope you’ll come find me on all the other things as well! :

I’ve been thinking of doing a solo Disney cruise and this video was really helpful. Thank you. I’ve been looking after my elderly mother and in the past two years havre had to sell her house and move her twice (once to assisted living, then to long term care). She has advanced dementia and Parkinsons. They call dementia “the longest goodbye”. Taking care of her day to day living has been exhausting and I’m thinking that when her struggle is over, I just want to go to a happy place, on my own, to process everything. The Disney Wish looks perfect!

Great overview Jen! I am not a "kid" person overall, but when I am in Disney I absolutely love to watch the children with their wide eyed amazement. Your last video series really made me want to do a Disney cruise. You and Coral had such a good time, and it was fun to watch. Thank you for sharing your experiences with us!

If not for the children who would I crush in Disney poolside trivia.

Great advice! My 1st Disney cruise was in 1999 with my kids to the Bahamas. It was great! But the last 2 Disney cruises was with my sister & we are seniors we loved it! One out of NYC & one out of San Diego. If you love Disney, no matter what age you are, you will love it!

This makes me think of our experiences at "adults only" vs "family" resorts. After doing adults only properties for YEARS we travelled with 2 other couples and their kids to a family resort back in 2018. Ironically, the aduts only SECTIONS of the family resorts were so much less crowded than any of the spots at the fully adult resorts. We acutally found that we enjoyed it more because there was much less competition :P

Just started. Looking forward to this one. Our first Disney cruise is April 2024. We don't have children.

Loved this format! The “Rick Steves” style voiceovers allow you to jam pack so many fantastic tips into this video. Thank you- it helps so much with planning!

Could NOT agree more! I think the other thing about these ships is that there’s so many ADD ON features that you simply don’t have to do, and they can be “affordable” if you want it to be.

I have taken 7 solo Disney cruises, with a few more booked in the upcoming year. I love them! People are very friendly and sociable, especially in adult spaces. However, there is plenty of solo time when I want and need it to decompress and enjoy some quiet. I love being at sea, having served in the Navy for 20 years, and DCL provides me the best of both Disney and being on a ship. Plus, the military discounts are really nice! Thanks for doing a video like this. So many people think it is just a cruise for families with young kids running around everywhere and that just isn't the case in my experience at all.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts about this! It's really helpful as I am hoping to add more adult only trips to my vacation planning!

3rd cruise coming up in less than 3 weeks!! Love your review. Excited to go with my granddaughters ( 3 and 6). We have our costumes and outfits picked out.

My wife and I just did the 3 night Wish for our 27th anniversary, and I agree that it works for adults as much as families.

I really liked this overview format! So much good and helpful information in here! I can definitely see myself continuing to sail Disney cruise line even after my kids are grown!

[marisadawndesigns]

I don’t have children and yet the only cruise that I have ever wanted to take is a Disney cruise! I don’t like casinos and really loud night-clubby places (thinking of some videos I have seen about Virgin) and also as a single woman, I somehow feel that I would be more comfortable on a Disney cruise and less likely to need to fend off unwanted attention. Not sure if that would be 100% correct, but it just seems like it would be a little safer. One day I will take the plunge and book a cruise! Thank you for your videos!

[christiemildon]

Thank you for the very helpful video, Jen! I've been thinking about a Disney cruise and this makes me want to book one immediately lol.

Great capture of the adults only Disney cruise, Jen. We had the same experience in 2016. We did not do the day pass at the spa so that’s something to definitely look into next time! We loved that lounge with the city lights! Except for our Remy and Palo dinners, we were there every night after the theater show.

I THINK I remembered you asking about how we like this format? I like it! Feels a lot more "professional" in that DFB way (minus musical background) and less "come along with me" which I like too.

[klyperez]

Great video! I’ll be sailing on the Wish in May with my family for our first Disney cruise and we are so excited!

[Ollie-belovedogever]

Agree with all you are saying Jen. Hubby and I went as a couple last April and we have so much fun! Thank you for all that you do

[saramerrill]

I can’t wait for our adult Disney cruise!
