Pools in port

[SpoonfulofSugar]

We've only ever been on Carnival Cruises before and just about everything closes while you are at a port of call--- Are pools and resturants open when you are in port on Disney?

Also, do all rooms have refrigerators?

would love to hear the answer as well, planning on staying onboard in Nassau

Everything except the shops & shutters stays open when you are in port. We actually only go ashore for an hour or so, then return to enjoy the almost empty Mickey pool with the kids. The clubs are open earlier on port days for the kids and the dining rooms are open as well. There aren't any character greetings during that time that I noticed, however.

All rooms have an ice box that can keep things cool. We found putting a drink in an ice bucket worked better for us. I think that if you need a fridge for medical reasons, you can request one.
