Our friend, Lauren Shields, recently went on the Disney Wish with her awesome family. While on board, they visited the Teenage Club “Vibe” (Ages 14-17) and were kind enough to share pictures with us. The Vibe is located on Deck 12 Starboard (right) side of the ship.
Our friend, Lauren Shields, recently went on the Disney Wish with her awesome family. While on board, they visited the Oceaneer Club (Ages 3-10) and were kind enough to share pictures with us. The Oceaneer Club is located on Deck 2 and is accessible via a slide from the Grand Hall on Deck 3 or from Deck 2.
The Oceaneer Club is Disney Cruise Line’s club for kids ages 3 to 10. We didn’t start cruising until our older daughter was 11, so she didn’t spend much time in the club. Our youngest daughter, however, loved the clubs and had to be dragged out of them a few times.
Kids have to be registered to use the kids clubs. You can register them online in advance of your cruise, which will allow you to get them enrolled and set their check-in/check-out privileges. The privileges relate to whether the child can leave the club when they want versus the club Cast Members calling you when your child wants to leave. When our daughter was younger, we would have them call us. Once we had been on a few cruises, we would let her check herself out and come back to the room (we always told her where we would be so she could easily find us). You can also give a list of people that are authorized to pick your child up from the club. We always authorized our older daughter so she could run and get her from the Club in case we were busy.
Once you have them registered online, you will have to get them a Magic Band. These Magic Bands are similar to the ones now used in Walt Disney World. When you get the band, your room will be charged $12.95 per Magic Band. This money will be refunded if you return the band before the end of the cruise. The Magic Bands are used to scan the kids in and out of the club. I believe they have some way to tell where the kids are in the club based upon the band as well, so maybe they are have RFID chips in them. The kids will also have to wash there hands before entering the club. This is the best part of the club, at least in my opinion. Look at the hand washing machine:
