Disney Magic vs Disney Dream (Cancun or Grand Cayman)

[Maesa]

We just got back from our first Disney Cruise on the Dream. 3 nights. It was an excellent trip and I am already to book another on for next year but we want it longer and another destination.

I was thinking about the Disney Magic going to Cancun....I know its a smaller ship then Dream. Is it comparable to Dream?

I'm sure with Disney all the ships are just as great and beautiful but the Magic is smaller....

How do you like the Disney Magic and Cancun. Is there much to do in Cancun? Can you go into the city?

Or do you prefer going to Grand Cayman better? I don't know which ship goes to Grand Cayman.

Btw - We've never been to Mexico - hint why I want to go into the city then stay around the beach area.

I haven't been on the Magic since it was reimagined so I can't really give you much feedback on that ship, other than we liked it very much the 2 times we did sail on it. We have been very happy with all 4 ships for what they are and never been disappointed after going from 1 class to the other.

The Fantasy goes to Grand Cayman on the Western Caribbean itinerary. They usually alternate every other week with Eastern and Western.

We started on the Dream and were not disappointed going to the Wonder and the Magic. The Magic AP is really neat and different from the Dream, especially if you can score a 7 night trip with the drawing of your own animation. We loved Grand Cayman, the beaches are some of the most beautiful ones I've seen. You can do a beach day at the Royal Palms for minimal cost or if you feel like splurging go to the Westin and get a day pass there and you won't regret it, gorgeous hotel and gorgeous beach!
