Hi - We are looking at booking this room for a cruise on the Magic in 2023. Did you hear any pump noise from the lifeboats? I'd seen that reported elsewhere, but from years ago. So just curious. We have a 5 yr old who I think us going to love the kids club, so thought this might be a good room.Stateroom 5622, Disney Magic. We were on a 5Day out of Miami on Feb14-19,2022. Five Stars for everything! Location- Deck 5 aft is our favorite location because of the short quiet hallways and the convenience to easily move around the ship with minimal traffic. Our room was the very first aft starboard cabin. From the verandah it is a straight down view to the ocean and no obstructions. To get to the atrium area it is a pleasant easy walk down the long hallway past the Buena Vista theater and entrance to the kids clubs. Very little traffic. Great lookout to the Atrium below. The aft stairs/elevators are close to the room and Animators is one floor straight down. Rapunzel down two floors. Deck four access to the outside walkway is down one floor also. Room condition was excellent. I could not find a single scratch or defect in any of the woodwork. Looked brand new. Everything in the room worked fine. Hard to believe this ship is over 20 years old.
I don’t recall any unusual noises, however there are always occasional mechanical sounds that you might hear on any ship. It’s a giant hunk of machinery. Since it has no cabin on its forward side, it is not surrounded by other rooms. Personally I like that. To me that is the biggest plus regarding deck 5. I prefer not being on a deck with an endless row of roomsHi - We are looking at booking this room for a cruise on the Magic in 2023. Did you hear any pump noise from the lifeboats?

I sent an email Monday to the contact at the bottom of the screen (corey@disneyinfo.com) requesting 2023 be added but at this point still no response. Possibly if you request too it will be updated?Tried to leave a review for 5150 on the Fantasy, but there was no option to select 2023 for the year.
Just a heads up that this is not the case. We travel with just my daughter and I and have been able to both choose and were assigned (GTY) a stateroom with a drop down bunk.Midships virtually no motion. Beautiful verandah. Not a "connected" stateroom. Two adults and one child thus no xtra drop down bunk. I'm sure the total number of persons contributes logically to what staterooms are available.
That's my exact room this July! Our TA booked us there, she said it was the best room in that category.Just posted a review of 12502 on the Wish. Great location.
Looks like the URL changed; I edited the post to show the new one!The link isn't showing stateroom reviews. It's going to something else. What happened?
Thanks for fixing it.Looks like the URL changed; I edited the post to show the new one!
@OKW Lover , can’t find your stateroom review referenced above, would you please direct me to it? Thank you so much!Just posted a review of 12502 on the Wish. Great location.
Hmmm.... I would have thought it was in this thread. The sailing was a 3-night in early November 2022. I'll check back around that time.@OKW Lover , can’t find your stateroom review referenced above, would you please direct me to it? Thank you so much!
Wonderful, thank you so much, I am new to the DCL side of the boards (usually WDW CL!).Hmmm.... I would have thought it was in this thread. The sailing was a 3-night in early November 2022. I'll check back around that time.

In short, this was a very convenient cabin. Very close to the concierge lounge but not a lot of foot traffic. Comfortable and quiet. Any particular questions?
You will be close to the lounge. It won’t be a problem. Be sure to go up to the concierge sun deck while on boardWonderful, thank you so much, I am new to the DCL side of the boards (usually WDW CL!).
We actually just switched to the concierge rooms at the front of the ship down on the 11th floor, any idea if that will be a far hike to the lounge?
Thank you again, we are very excited!
@OKW Lover , thank you, we certainly will do that!!! I am searching for videos online to try to determine about how long that walk from the front of the ship on 11 to the lounge on 12 would be- I am sure it will be fabulous no matter where we end up!You will be close to the lounge. It won’t be a problem. Be sure to go up to the concierge sun deck while on board
