It’s so big and serene, we really liked the update! Hopefully this is what the Fantasy will get when it goes into dry dock! Or maybe something even better!!
The Hercules theme is really nice. But Disney has a way of changing things on the individual ships to keep it fresh. No crystal ball here, sadly, but it would be nice if the Fantasy was updated and had a different theme. We think the size and space will mirror the new concierge lounge on the Dream, but not sure that Hercules will be the theme. Can’t wait to see what they do when it goes into drydock in 2025!
This is exciting to see as we are cruising in April in the Dream with concierge! It’s our first Disney cruise. Do you know what type things I can request for the room being concierge? We just have a basic family veranda room
How exciting! You will love it! Start by getting in touch with Shoreside Concierge. (See below) They will help you a lot! You can request soft drinks and water (example - you don’t want Diet Coke or you want more!). You can request a cabana (which is an extra cost like $500) but being concierge gives you a better chance of getting one. You can request adult dining (if you’re interested in that - also extra cost) and you can request dining time and the rotation you can start with. Also check out Disney Concierge Facebook group. Lots of other good ideas! To reach DCL Shoreside, the toll-free number is 1-866-784-1654 and the hours of operation are Monday through Sunday, 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 their email to send the request 125 days out is: dcl.concierge.services@disneycruise.com
Yes at the end when you do all the gratuities. You will receive envelopes for everyone who gets tipped including the concierge “group.” They don’t have individual envelopes for each person in concierge, it’s a group tip. You can tip someone individually if you wish to by getting more envelopes and writing their name on it.
Totally get it’s not for everyone. We love it for all the perks that come with it: first on the ship, first off the ship (and making earlier flights), lounge perks of food and drinks, uncrowded hot tub, easy to get a lounge chair in the sun (or the shade) and special extras. The lounge hosts are so accommodating with handling requests and making things happen for the ultimate good time in a cruising experience and make everything you need or want on the ship so much easier to accomplish. Disney is a premier cruise line and more expensive than other cruise lines, so it really depends what you’re looking for when you cruise with them. We really enjoyed it, so we made the video.
Thanks so much.
Thanks for watching!
Just want to go there and enjoy ! Thank you for the nice tour !
It's a wonderful place to relax! Hope you get to go soon! Thanks for the compliment, we appreciate it!
Wow! I sailed concierge on the Fantasy last year, so it's amazing to see the transformation of the expanded lounge space. Beautiful!

@ do you think it will be a carbon copy of the Hercules theme? Or do you suspect a different IP/design?

Doesn’t look like 3000 thousand dollars worth it
