Ultimate Disney 14 Night Land and Sea Vacation: Caribbean Beach, Disney Cruise & Coronado Springs
Disney Cruise Line Fantasy docked at Castaway Cay
Imagine waking up under swaying palm trees, the sound of steel drums playing faintly in the background, and the promise of adventure on the horizon. Your dream vacation is about to begin: a blend of Disney magic, tropical relaxation, and family fun that will keep everyone in your group smiling from the moment you check in to the final farewell.
Three Nights at Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort
Your journey starts at Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort, where vibrant island vibes welcome you to the heart of Walt Disney World. This Disney Caribbean Beach Resort stay offers one of the best ways to begin your Disney land and sea vacation. As you step into your room, you'll feel instantly transported. Take time to explore the lush grounds, complete with a sandy beach area, swaying hammocks, and the Fuentes del Morro Pool—designed like a Spanish fortress, it's a hit with kids and adults alike.
You’re just a ride away from the parks, thanks to the Disney Skyliner. Caribbean Beach Resort is a central hub for Skyliner access, giving you direct access to EPCOT and Disney's Hollywood Studios, as well as connections to other resorts. It’s a scenic and convenient way to travel, especially with strollers or wheelchairs - just wheel right on!
For guests using wheelchairs or ECVs (Electric Conveyance Vehicles), the resort is fully accessible with ramps, elevators in key buildings, and Skyliner gondolas designed to accommodate mobility devices. You’ll find ample accessible paths and transportation options throughout the property.
After a day exploring EPCOT or Hollywood Studios, wind down with dinner at Sebastian’s Bistro, where Caribbean-inspired flavors meet waterfront views. And don’t forget the Banana Cabana Pool Bar for a refreshing cocktail while the kids splash nearby. This resort is ideal for families looking for a relaxing Disney World resort with great transportation and food options.
Pro Tip:
When checking-in, be sure to pick up a calendar of activities for the resort. After a hectic day in the park, making S’mores, watching a movie under the stars, or letting the kids relax with a craft activity may be just what your family needs.
One Night at Beachside Hotel and Suites, Cocoa Beach
After three fun-filled days, you’ll make your way east to Florida’s Space Coast. At Beachside Hotel and Suites in Cocoa Beach, you’ll enjoy laid-back surf-town vibes, just a short walk from the ocean. This is a convenient hotel near Port Canaveral for Disney Cruise Line guests. A complimentary breakfast is included with your stay, making it easy to fuel up before your beach walk or embarkation day. The lazy river pool is a hit, and you can squeeze in some beach time or a sunset walk before you set sail.
The hotel offers accessible rooms and public areas, including ramps and elevators. Be sure to request an accessible room when booking if you're using an ECV.
Pro Tip:
Consider making a run to the grocery store to stock up on forgotten toiletries or favorite snacks for the kids, or head to ABC Fine Wines and Liquor (just up the road) to pick up some wine and/or Champagne for the voyage. Each adult 21 and over can bring up to two bottles on board to enjoy in their staterooms; this is limited to wine and Champagne only.
Seven-Night Western Caribbean Cruise Aboard the Disney Fantasy
Now it’s time to board the Disney Fantasy, where luxury, imagination, and impeccable service await. This Disney Fantasy Western Caribbean cruise offers an unforgettable mix of family adventure and relaxation. The kids will race off to explore the legendary youth spaces, while you settle into your stateroom and get ready to sail away.
Small World Nursery is perfect for your youngest cruisers (6 months to 3 years), with trained counselors, gentle playtime, and naptime spots so you can enjoy some adult-only fun.
Oceaneer Club and Oceaneer Lab offer themed zones for kids ages 3–10. Whether they’re flying the Millennium Falcon, hanging out with superheroes, or building experiments in the Lab, they’ll be immersed in imaginative play and interactive experiences.
Tweens will love Edge, a space just for them (ages 11–14), featuring video games, movie nights, dance parties, and guided activities.
Teens ages 14–17 can head to Vibe, a loft-inspired space where they can chill out, join in games, and meet new friends in a supervised but relaxed environment. These Disney Cruise kids clubs are ideal for giving everyone in your family their own special experience.
The Disney Fantasy is well-equipped for ECV users, with accessible staterooms, elevators, wide corridors, and wheelchair-friendly entrances to all major dining and entertainment venues. Crew members are always available to assist with boarding and disembarking at ports of call.
While the kids are off having a blast, you can indulge in adult-exclusive dining at Palo or Remy, relax at the Quiet Cove Pool, or enjoy a massage at Senses Spa.
Dining on the Disney Fantasy is a rotating experience—each night brings a new themed restaurant, like Animator’s Palate or Enchanted Garden, while your serving team follows you for consistent, friendly service. Disney Cruise dining is known for its immersive atmosphere and exceptional service. Oh, and don’t miss the unlimited soft-serve ice cream on deck!
One of the most unforgettable evenings onboard is Pirate Night, when the ship transforms into a swashbuckling celebration! Bring your pirate gear and enjoy themed dinners, character meet-and-greets in costume, and a high-energy deck party complete with music and dancing. The night ends with a bang—literally—as you watch fireworks at sea, a Disney Cruise Line signature that lights up the sky in spectacular fashion. Pirate Night and fireworks at sea are top highlights of any Disney Fantasy cruise.
Pro Tips:
Pack a Day Bag with pool and activity essentials - sunscreen, bathing suits, hats, sunglasses, diapers, wipes, etc. Your cabin and luggage may not be available until later in the afternoon and, while the ship is in port, none of the retail outlets are open.
Embarkation day is a great time to visit the kids’ spaces on board. Check your Disney Cruise Line app for times and availability.
If you are interested in booking Specialty Dining or a Magical Extra, visit Guest Services (GS). If traveling with children, you may want to designate one adult to stand in line at GS while others explore the ship or take advantage of the pool and splash pad as the line at GS can be long on embarkation day.
Four Nights at Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort – Destino Tower
After disembarking, your adventure continues back at Walt Disney World with a luxurious stay at the Destino Tower at Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort. The tower combines upscale elegance with Spanish, Mexican, and Southwest American influences, all infused with subtle Disney touches—like hidden Mickeys in the decor, imaginative artwork, and nods to Disney storytelling that add a touch of whimsy without overwhelming the sophisticated design. This is one of the best Disney World resorts for adults and families seeking a little more luxury.
Recharge with a visit to the rooftop Dahlia Lounge, offering sweeping views and delicious tapas. Toledo – Tapas, Steak & Seafood provides an unforgettable fine-dining experience right in your hotel.
The Lost City of Cibola pool complex, complete with waterslide and dig site playground, is a great place for the kids to let loose while you enjoy a quiet moment under the palm trees. You’ll also find fitness classes, jogging trails, and recreational activities scheduled throughout the day.
Destino Tower and the wider Coronado Springs Resort are ECV-friendly, featuring accessible paths, elevators, and accommodations. Buses to the parks are equipped for ECV boarding, and Disney transportation staff is happy to assist.
Your final days are a perfect mix of park magic and resort relaxation. Whether you’re revisiting favorite rides or soaking in the atmosphere, you’ll head home with a heart full of memories and maybe a few new travel traditions.
Pro Tip:
Make sure to take an evening to grab an outdoor seat at the Dahlia Lounge on the 18th floor of the Destino Tower. From there you can see fireworks from across the parks - children are welcome!
