Disney Magic is a fantastic ship with superb theming, slides (Acqua Lab and Acqua Dunk), pools (Goofy's pool). There are also characters to meet for the younger kids throughout the ship.

Key Features
High Quality Entertainment: Cruisers love the big shows and if you love the Disney theme then you will see enchanting entertainment on board with shows like Frozen, a Musical Spectacular Live Show and the Beauty and the Beast Live Show. Disney Magic includes a Tangled: The Musical show and Twice Charmed: an original twist on Cinderella. There are also Deck Parties and as you might expect with Disney - Fireworks at Sea. I believe Disney are the only cruise line with Fireworks at sea.
Dining Options: with Disney you rotate dining rooms and it will include immersive themed dining making dinner an experience of its own. There is character dining experiences and on Disney Magic you will also find top quality dining at Animator's Palate, Lumiere and Rapunzel's Royal table.
Kids Clubs: It wouldn't be Disney without the kids clubs. There is no arguing that the Disney kids clubs are the best at seas with incredible theming suitable for the different age levels. Oceaneers club has the Star Wars: Millennium Falcon theme and the younger kids will see Toy Story type themes.
Disney is not just for kids: Well it kind of is just for kids but old kids I guess. In truth, there are some activities just for adults on board, like the Crown and Fin pit, Azure Nightclub and adults only areas / pools.
