Disney Cruise Line Handicap Accessible Stateroom

You may know that Disney Cruise Line has some of the largest staterooms in the industry, and their handicap accessible staterooms are no different. This is a photo tour of a handicap accessible stateroom the Disney Magic. This roomy stateroom is for guests who have mobility issues, and might be sailing with a ECV, wheelchair or special needs stroller.  Giving them the extra maneuvering space to move about the cabin easily. The entry is about 10" wider than a standard cabin, and provides 32" of clearance.

**Note: The stateroom shown in these photos, is located at the stern (back) of the ship, and is larger than most of the handicap accessible staterooms. It is also a wheelchair accessible room, which means your wheelchair, scooter, ECV, or stroller can be stored in your stateroom.




Sleeping arrangements for this stateroom will accommodate up to 4 guests. The queen bed is approximately  21"-23" high and is elevated to provide storage for your luggage. The couch converts into a single bed and the upper, pull down bunk can accommodate a guest up to 220lbs.






 The bathrooms in the handicap accessible staterooms have a variety of features to accommodate guests. These features include:

*Ramped bathroom entrances
*Handrails for the shower & toilet
*Hand-held shower heads
*Fold down shower seats
*Lowered towel & closet bars
*Phone and emergency call buttons in the bathroom






 As noted above, this stateroom is located at the stern, so this cabin enjoys a very oversize verandah. Not all handicap accessible staterooms with verandah will have a verandah of this size.





 Due to the limited availability of handicap accessible rooms on each of the ships (16 on the Magic & Wonder, and 24 on the Dream & Fantasy), it is recommended you book early. When booking, you can discuss your individual needs with your travel advisor and with Disney Cruise Line, by filling out a Disney Cruise Lines Special Services Form. You will be contacted by a cast member to discuss any special needs you may have, and how they can accommodate you.
