We recently went on the Disney Wonder for a 5 Night Baja Cruise (departure date April 14, 2019).  We stayed in room 6654, which is a Category 6A Deluxe Oceanview Stateroom with Verandah.  It is located on the starboard (right) aft (back) side of the ship on Deck 6.   It is as far to the back of the boat that you can possibly get.  <\/p>\n

Note, this room is a handicap accessible stateroom.  We did not initially request this room (and didn’t need its accessible features).  We were offered this room as an upgrade at the port because it was available.  Since we had reserved an ocean view stateroom (without a verandah), we took the upgrade for the five night cruise (the cost was $268 total for the five night cruise).  We were not disappointed.  This room is huge and the verandah is HUGE!<\/p>\n

As you can see from the deck plan photo below, this room is almost twice the size of a typical stateroom.  We really liked having the extra space to move around – for example, when we were packing and unpacking, we did not have to deal with the normal issue of juggling suitcases in front of the closets while people were coming and going from the room.  However, there are some differences from a normal stateroom that it might be helpful to be aware of (aside from accessibility features such as the motorized stateroom door and closet bar that raises\/lowers).  Because the room is wider than most, and the desk\/TV is (as usual) mounted on the wall opposite the bedroom and couch, the television is a little farther from the couch than in a usual room.  We don’t tend to watch a ton of TV on the cruises, but if you do – this is just something to be aware of.  Another difference from a normal stateroom is that there is no privacy curtain to separate the bed from the couch\/bunk bed area. <\/p>\n

The biggest difference with this stateroom from a typical one is the configuration of the bathroom.  Rather than the usual split bathroom with a toilet\/sink in one room and a sink\/tub\/shower in the other, the accessible stateroom has one large bathroom.  To allow maximum accessibility, there is a lot of open space and very few shelves\/counter space, although there is a low hook in addition to the high one on the back of the bathroom door.  Also, the bathroom has no tub — instead, there is a shower with a folding bench that can raise\/lower.  The shower has no lip which would make it easier for someone with mobility issues to enter – it is surrounded by drains in the floor.  One thing we noticed with this configuration is that the water did not always flow directly into the drains, so a large part of the bathroom floor tended to get wet when we would take showers.  Once we realized this we took extra care not to leave clothes or other items on the floor of the bathroom. <\/p>\n
