As Disney’s third and largest cruise ship, the Disney Dream not only makes a bold statement with its size but also with its interior decor and artwork found throughout its decks. From sketches and classic Disney movie artwork lining its stairwells to elaborate three-dimensional sculptures and wall decor, the Dream leaves guests hunting for the next stunning piece.
While aboard its all-too-brief Christening Cruise, I spent a few hours wandering the 13 decks, snapping photos at every piece of artwork and unique design I could find. The result is more than 100 photos featuring dazzling decor as well as a variety of Disney characters through the decades, some shown as original concept pieces for films and others in contemporary ways.
Here are a few of my favorite pieces, followed by a full gallery slideshow:
The chandelier in the Dream's main lobby is immense and breathtaking.
Balconies in the main lobby are lined with Disney characters. It's subtle enough to miss it if you're not looking for it. The Admiral Donald statue, however, is not so subtle.
Every would-be-princess wants a throne like this, with the background of a Cinderella tile mosaic.
Hallways seem to stretch on and on throughout the ship, almost always lined with framed artwork.Some of the best art is found throughout the Dream's many staircases, including this interesting Mickey Mouse theater piece.Leading up to the Remy restaurant is this large Ratatouille artwork.Prints of original movie concept art make using the Dream's stairs worthwhile.Elevator areas are decorated to match the areas they serve. This one leads to the ship's night clubs.An art gallery features several rooms lined with giclees, each available for purchase.This was my favorite cruise-related giclee of the bunch.
