Is Disney Cruise Concierge Worth It?

What Disney Cruise Line concierge includes, who it suits and how to decide whether the higher fare is worth it for your family.

Is Disney Cruise concierge worth the extra cost?

Concierge suits families who want extra space, a private lounge and sun deck, priority boarding and a planner. It costs noticeably more than a standard stateroom, so compare fares for your sailing.

Concierge is Disney's top stateroom category. It includes the room plus a set of services and shared spaces.

What it includes

  • A concierge planner by phone or email from about 130 days before sailing
  • Priority check-in, a dedicated embarkation window and a welcome lunch
  • A private lounge and a private sun deck on every ship, with whirlpools on the deck
  • Larger suites with more bathrooms and walk-in closets
  • A pre-dinner cocktail delivered to your room, a pillow menu, extra outlets and upscale toiletries
  • Free Wi-Fi allowance and priority disembarkation

Who it suits

  • Large families or groups who value space
  • Travelers who dislike lines at guest services
  • People who want help with dining and spa bookings

Who may not need it

If you plan to spend most of the day on deck, at the pools or in ports, a standard verandah may be enough.

How to decide

  1. Price the same sailing in a standard verandah and concierge.
  2. Add up what you would pay for the extras.
  3. Count the people. A larger group may find concierge cheaper per person than two connecting rooms.

Prices vary by ship and date. We can compare options. Request a cruise quote.
