how young for top bunk?

We recently discovered our September cruise is one of the rooms without the Murphy Bed, just the top bunk and the sofa.

How young/old should children be when using the top bunk on DCL?

I think the best answer would be, ‘Is the child old enough/mature enough for the top bunk of a bunk bed?’ If no then I definitely would not put them on that bunk either.

I second that.

When our kids were like 4 and 5, we had them sleep head to toe on the sofa because we were nervous about the bunk. They loved it. So you could try it and if it looks too dangerous, if you have little kids, they can both fit on the sofa.

On all three of our Disney cruises we pulled the mattress down from the top bunk and placed it on the floor next to the sofa bed because my kiddo didn't want to go on the top bunk. We stowed the ladder under the bed and then put the mattress back up in the morning.

My just turned 5 year old grandson slept there, but he has a loft bed at home so he's used to climbing in.

And I actually slept up there a couple of nights after he had fallen asleep in the lower bunk with me. I'm a size 10 sixty year old, and while I had to watch my head, I felt perfectly safe in it.
