You know what they say: the more, the merrier! But when you’re planning a Disney Cruise with a large party, it can sometimes be hard to find the right accommodations.
Disney Cruise Line offers some of the largest staterooms in the cruise industry, but you’re still dealing with restricted real estate.
Even though Disney Cruise Line staterooms have been designed with families in mind, it’s still not a one-size, fits-all situation. Since families come in different sizes, luckily, so do Disney Cruise Line staterooms.
Disney Wish
We’ve poured through the blueprints and manifolds, the square feet, the beds and bathrooms to find the best staterooms for families of five.

For families of five, you’ll book the Deluxe Family Oceanview Stateroom with Verandah, This stateroom has 304 square-feet of space, a queen bed, single sleeper sofa, wall pull-down bed, and upper berth pull-down bed. Enough beds to sleep a family of 5! You can book this as a basic stateroom or in the concierge level (for a bit more dough).
The Concierge 1-Bed Suite with Verandah is a luxurious 614 square feet and offers a separate bedroom with a queen bed; double sleeper sofa in living room; and a wall pull-down single bed in living room. This option also sleeps five, but offers a bit more elbow room.

This option also sleeps five, but offers a bit more elbow room. You can also get the option with an Extended Verandah for some more space for private sunbathing.
Looking to cruise in the style of Sleeping Beauty? Then check out the Concierge 1-Story Royal Suite with Verandah. The suite has 2 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a private verandah complete with a whirlpool, and enough beds to sleep up six! At 1,507 square feet (practically a house!), you’ve got a ton of space for everyone in the family.
Continue your journey into family luxury cruising and take a look at the Concierge 2-Story Royal Suite with Verandah. With 1,759 square feet, 2 main bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and equipped with 2 king beds and a large living area with a queen convertible sofa, you’ve got enough space here for a family of six.
And last but not least, the Concierge Tower Suite. The Wish, Treasure, and Destiny each host these Tower Suites, but each has a different theme and decor. The Tower Suites offer 2 main bedrooms with 1 king bed in each room, a children’s bedroom with unique bunk beds, and a library/bedroom with queen size wall bed. You’ll also have access to 4.5 bathrooms a living room, dining room and a grand spiral staircase! All in 1,966 square feet to sleep up 8 individuals.
The Wish and the Treasure definitely stack up quite a few more options for larger families, so if you want the most stateroom options, these should probably be your first stop.
Disney Cruise Line offers a number of staterooms that can accommodate families of five. If you have a little wiggle room in your budget and desire a bit more living space, you can also consider booking two staterooms. They don’t offer adjoining or connecting staterooms, but you can get them side by side for if you’re traveling with teens or young adults who can stay on their own.
