Aboard the Disney Treasure: Coco Dining, Moana Magic & A Proposal at Sea With Expert Cruiser Jeff O’Polka – Ep. 638 — Geekin' On WDW | Trip Reports From A Community of Disney World Fans

This week, I’m catching up with our long-time friend and Super Geek, Jeff O’Polka!
Jeff’s back to share stories from his 13th Disney Cruise, this time aboard the brand-new Disney Treasure!

Jeff’s a true Disney Cruise veteran — and now a Platinum Castaway Club member — so this episode is filled with insider wisdom, family traditions, and that signature mix of relaxation and Disney magic that keeps cruisers coming back for more.

Travel With Us

We set sail on the Western Caribbean itinerary, stopping in:

Cozumel, Mexico
Falmouth, Jamaica
Grand Cayman
Disney’s private island, Castaway Cay

Jeff and his family of ten have cruising down to an art — from group photos before boarding to connecting balcony rooms that transform into one big family hangout.

Featuring Highlights

First impressions of the Disney Treasure and how it ranks among all the Disney ships
Dining delights, including the Coco-themed restaurant, 1923, and all-you-can-eat lobster night
Hidden gems for first-time cruisers — from pre-boarding photo ops to deck 11 food access hacks
Broadway-quality entertainment: Moana, Beauty and the Beast, and Seize the Day
A heartwarming proposal at sea
Smart cruise strategies — from choosing the right stateroom to prepaying gratuities and finding the best value itineraries
Why Jeff says the Disney Cruise Line experience is worth every penny, and how it compares to other cruise lines
