Has anyone done the Spa Villas on the Disney Fantasy? My parent's 30th wedding anniversary will occur while we are on the ship and I am considering getting them the Couples Choice Villa Package. Is it worth the money? Any thoughts or opinions are greatly appreciated.
DH and I have done the spa villas on Disney ships multiple times, though mostly on the "classic" ships. Pretty sure we did a spa villa on the Dream when we sailed her w/no kids a couple of years ago. Like ACDSNY said, obviously we LOVE it.
I think the big question would be: do your parents enjoy spa treatments and environs? If they have never had a massage, I am not sure if they would adore it or be a little overwhelmed. You know your parents.
Is it cheap? NO. But if one looks at the prices of spa treatments at any high end resort, or cruise, I do not think the price is out of line. With the top package, Ultimate Indulgence, you get 2 treatments. What I think make the spa villas worth it is the service and the relax time on the private deck in your own hot tub. TIP: you don't want to book this on a port day! No frolicking sans clothing with a ship parked next door!
After your relaxation time out on the deck with some magical elixir they had added to the water, with a pitcher of ice water on the edge of the tub to hydrate yourselves while you soak, then you shower off in a private shower on the deck and they bring you inside to the couples room which is entirely open to the private deck, so it is pretty much like getting treatments outside while the blue sea goes by. Ahhhhhhhhhhhh.
If you are looking for just a spa treatment (well, not JUST a spa treatment!
), I love the Absolute Spa Ritual as it includes a facial AND a massage for a total of 120 minutes of luxurious treatment!
