When you see commercials and advertisements for a Disney Cruise vacation, you may see a crystal clear pool with enough room for everyone. However, Robbins explains that most of the time, she and her family often skip the pool entirely due to how crowded it can become.
In order to snag a lounge chair or a spot in the pool, Robbins advises Guests either arrive early or stay late. She also reveals that the hot tubs are bound to be full of children when not in an adults-only area.

Jill Robbins also describes the deck parties and shares photos. If you’ve visited a Disney Park, then the sight of so many people watching a show will be incredibly familiar. “To secure a prime viewing spot,” Robbins writes, “I typically have to get to the deck at least 30 minutes before showtime.”
