Disney Cruise Line - Stateroom 8514 Report

Notes: The other reviews are accurate. The cabin was in excellent shape, but the veranda could have used a paint touch up. My 6'4" son found the murphy bed a bit short, but he managed and this room seemed larger than the connecting 4 person rooms I had on the Wonder. A/C worked well and the refrigerator kept my case of beer cold all week. Beds were firm and comfortable.

Notes: One deck down from Spa and the quiet adult pool area, easy access to FWD elevators (never a wait), had a large double steamer trunk so storage space was not a problem. DS(19yo and over 6ft) slept on Murphy bed and thought it was comfortable. The Verandah looked freshly painted and has a cover over it to make even rainy days nice to sit out on. Could not see the fireworks from the balcony. Only thing that made this room a 4 vice a 5 was no hot water on the 1st day, and even by day eight and many maintenance workers trying very hard the best they could get was a little better than warm water. (Disney did offer to move us to a new stateroom the 2nd day). Verandah faced the in KW/Costa Maya/Cozumel.

Notes: Closets to the left as you enter, bathrooms to the right. Twin size murphy bed pulls down next to the large porthole and the sofa converts to twin bed. Sleeps four comfortably. The forward location is good for decreased hall traffic and low noise level. Easy access to the Forward Stairs/Elevators which seemed to be the least used of the three. Small downside was that most of our trips were to areas that were in the mid and aft portions of the ship. But, that wasn't really a big deal: Drop down to Deck 4 and use the outside jogging track for quick access to the mid and aft. Good view of Castaway Cay. The roominess of the stateroom was fine - we were only there to get ready and to sleep. The split bathrooms made getting ready very easy. I wouldn't sleep more than 4: My wife and I were in the Queen and the twin beds slept our two kids. It got cozy when the murphy bed was lowered.

Notes: convenient to forward elevators, only sleeps 4 - no pulldown bunk, good views of terminal in Port Canaveral and of Castaway Cay, very roomy!

Notes: Great location -- one deck up to pool, drink station and topsiders. Close to forward elevators. Very quiet -- great view coming into Castaway Cay. While this room could sleep 5, I think it would be crowded -- the Murphy bed blocks off access to the balcony. Very spacious for 3 or 4.
