🏴‍☠️With an increase in Disney Cruise bookings lately, I wanted to introduce new DCL crusiers to Pirate Night!🏴‍☠️

What is Pirate Night?

Did you know that most sailings will have a Pirate Night? (Alaska & Northern Europe sailings are not included, but all other sailings 3+ nights will have a Pirate night.)

*Feel free to dress up like a pirate, wear pirate themed shirts & bandanas, or just wear normal clothes and enjoy the night's festivities.

*Pirate night is typically on a port night (Nassau, Tortola, Cayman, etc) depending on your itinerary,

*Festivities will start late afternoon with character meet & greets in their pirate outfits.

*Find a few pirate themed backdrops in the atrium prior to each dinner seating for some fun photo ops!

*Pirate night includes a Pirate themed dinner experience at one of your repeat restaurants, with the exception of 3 night cruises that do not have Pirate dinner since that would mean missing one of your themed dinners. If you are on a 4 night cruise over a holiday, you may also not have a pirate dinner. Dining staff will be dressed as pirates and the menu is pirate themed.

*Pirate night includes a family friendly stage show between dinner times. This show varies from ship to ship, but typically includes Mickey and friends in their pirate outfits.

*After the 2nd dining/2nd show concludes, there will be another Pirate stage show on the pool deck. This one is more pirate themed and varies by ship. Some shows may include Jack Sparrow, a Pirate band and more! This concludes with Fireworks (the only fireworks at sea) and then a dance party!

*Some cruises may have a Pirate buffet in Cabanas after the Fireworks. Ask your dining server if this will be offered on your sailing.

*If your cruise has a special theme such as Pixar or Marvel or Halloween on the High Seas etc, you will still have a Pirate night. Pirate night is a separate experience from the Pixar or Marvel Day at sea.

Can’t wait to see those Pirate night pictures you all send me 🏴‍☠️

🎢Theme Park Recommendation🎢

Lake Buena Vista and Spa resort
One of my favorite places to stay off resort with 3 bedrooms! Vibe is a little outdated but reminds me of a typical beach condo rental.

Location - 10 Minute drive from Disney. Universal 20-25 minutes from the I-4, very busy at peak times.

Things to do - Around the corner from the hotel is a local outlet with publix, Nike, UA plus Disney outlet store. In addition to all your other fast food places within a short walk.

Hotel - Fully self contained with kitchen and living room. If you’re lucky like we were, you get to see all the fireworks going off from Disney, even though it’s from far away. Theme Park View?! Woohooo!!

Pools - two pools, one has a huge pirate ship in the middle of it. Prices at the pool bar are a bit over the top but that’s hotel prices. $5 for a can of Coke as an example. There is a relaxation pool in the other area

Shuttle - the hotel has a shuttle bus daily but you only get a free ride twice a week after that is $12 pp each way.

Outlets - Vineland designer outlet is a 5 minute drive with everything you need.

I’ve got a couple suppliers that I’ve been lucky to find great prices at certain times of the year here. It’s definitely worth looking into if staying on Disney or Universal property isn’t right for you.

🌀First Day of Hurricane Season🌀
The busiest time of year for the travel business and also the most stressful. I’m now going to be glued to the weather updates more than usual to make sure all of my clients are safe and that they still have the best vacation despite this hurricane season.

Happy planning travel friends!
