Disney Cruise Line is set to revitalise Disney Magic during a scheduled dry dock period from 7 September to 10 October 2013 in Cadiz, Spain.
“We have always been committed to reinvesting in our fleet and continuously making shipboard enhancements that elevate the guest experience,” said Karl Holz, president of Disney Cruise Line. “What we’re doing with the Disney Magic is yet another step forward in our commitment to delivering the absolute best family vacations at sea.”
Following the dry dock, Disney Magic will feature a redesigned grand atrium lobby, additional storage space in the cabins and many new venues throughout the ship.
The ship’s Senses Spa and Salon will be expanded by 725-sqft and offers additional teeth whitening services, barbershop services and a new Chill Spa with treatments specifically designed for teenagers.
Disney’s Oceaneer Club will be redesigned to include the first Marvel Avengers Academy at sea, Mickey Mouse Club, Pixie Hollow, Andy’s Room, the pirate-themed Oceaneer Lab and the It’s a Small World nursery for toddlers.
The vessel’s upper decks will feature AquaLab and Nephew’s Splash Zone, two interactive water playgrounds, as well as the 250-foot Twist n’ Spout water slide. Passengers can also ride on the translucent, three-storey body slide, AquaDunk, which extends 20 feet over the side of the ship.
Disney Magic will also debut a range of new dining and entertainment venues, such as the updated Animator’s Palate restaurant, Palo restaurant and the Rio de Janeiro-themed Carioca’s, which replaces Parrot Cay. Topsider Buffet will be expanded and replaced by the Australian-themed Cabanas, while After Hours, the new nighttime adult-only entertainment district, will offer various entertainment options including Fathoms nightclub, Keys piano bar and O’Gills Irish pub and sports bar.
