Rainforest Room on Disney Fantasy

The Rainforest Room on Disney Cruise Line is the best spa bargain at sea! 

There's no doubt that Disney Cruise Line's Senses Spa is the most relaxing spot on the Disney Fantasy.

Once my daughter was secured at Oceaneer Club (having a blast, mind you), I had a block of time to myself and made an appointment for the Rainforest Room -- a heat, steam and hydrotherapy circuit that was guaranteed to relax my mind and body. The cost for this experience? A mere $16.

My jaw dropped when I heard the price. "Really?", I asked. This was a first for me. I don't think I've ever been so shocked about how inexpensive a day pass to the spa was.

For an extra $11, I was offered a DIY scrub in my choice of Vanilla Orange, Chocolate Peppermint, Lavender Herbal or Tangerine to enhance my experience.

Since we were still only talking $27, I selected the Lavender Herbal Salt Scrub (which also came with a loofah for application) and I was on my way to a relaxing afternoon.

After a brief tour of the facility, I was guided to the women's locker room and handed a robe and sandals for use in the spa. Since the Rainforest Room is co-ed, all guests must wear a swimsuit.

I decided to go by the recommendation of one of the spa staff members and spent 10-15 minutes in each of the saunas, with a visit to a different shower between each session.

I started with the "Rainforest" shower (the warmest of the four showers) and then spent 10 minutes in the Laconium (dry sauna). I followed this with the "Water Fun" shower (my favorite -- has a great mix of warm/cool water and aromatherapy with three different pressure settings) and then 15 minutes in the Caldarium (steam room).

Next up for the showers was the "Tropical Storm", which I also enjoyed. There are two settings in this shower which mimic a "Southern Storm" and a "Caribbean Storm" -- Each shower experience is enhanced with the use of lights, scents and sounds and was incredibly invigorating!

My final treatment room was the Hamam (steam bath), which is where I was instructed to apply my lavender scrub and to let it sink into my skin.

After 15 minutes, I rinsed off the scrub (my skin glowing, by the way) and showered in the "Cool Mist Experience".

The showers go from warmest to coolest, with the Cool Mist "Siberian Night" setting being downright chilling -- I should have known by the name!

Part of the experience of the Rainforest room is allowing your body to adjust to the warmer saunas and colder showers, so that is becomes revitalized.

I say, mission accomplished!

Once you've had your fill of the showers & saunas, the next area is one of pure tranquility. Overlooking the ocean, a row of heated tile beds and two spa jacuzzi await you in a separate area that can only be described as "blissfully calm".

I took a 10-minute dip in one of the whirlpool tubs, followed by a 30 minutes nap on a mosaic tile lounger. I could of sleep here for hours!

This is how I like to cruise.

In total, I spent around 2 hours in the Rainforest room at the Senses Spa and consider it to be a bargain at $16 (or $27 with the optional scrub).

If you buy your pass in the morning, you can come back as much as you'd like throughout the day with complimentary use of the spa amenities, including the locker rooms and showers with beauty products -- great perk after a day at the pool or a few runs on the AquaDuck!

I didn't have time to book a treatment, but the spa menu was extensive with choices for everything from massages and facials to mani/pedis, and even acupuncture. The prices were on par with other cruise lines, if not a little better. For example: a 45-minute fire and ice manicure was only $50 ... I don't think that's bad at all!

I enjoyed my experience at the Rainforest so much, I will be booking a multi-day pass on my next Disney Cruise. The Rainforest room is available on both the Disney Fantasy and the Disney Dream.

Rainforest Room Update

Since writing this article, it seems the only way to get a single spa day pass for $16 (plus gratuity) is to pre-purchase by CALLING 800-601-8455 before your cruise once you have your booking. I was told that you can purchase as many single day passes as you'd like to guarantee availability versus waiting to book the length of cruise passes on board.

You do not have to select a day when pre-purchasing 1-day Rain Forest room passes, you simply exchange the voucher at the spa on the day you want to use it.

Once onboard, length of cruise passes are available for the following rates, plus 18% gratuity (prices subject to change):

Single Rainforest Room Pass:

  • 3-Day Singles Rainforest Pass – $69 + gratuity
  • 4-Day Singles Rainforest Pass – $101 + gratuity
  • 7-Day Singles Rainforest Pass – $ 144 + gratuity

Couples Rainforest Room Pass:

  • 3-Day Couples Rainforest Pass – $102 + gratuity
  • 4-Day Couples Rainforest Pass – $144 + gratuity
  • 7-Day Couples Rainforest Pass – $ 193 + gratuity

Which Disney Cruises Have the Rainforest Room

Though this post features the Rainforest Room on the Disney Fantasy, the Rainforest Room is a part of Senses Spa on all of the Disney ships, which include Disney Wonder, Disney Magic, Disney Dream and Disney Fantasy.

On Disney Fantasy and Disney Dream, there are hot tubs with views outside the ship.

    I can see that the Wonder RainForest room is very nice. I tried this on the Disney Magic, and was disappointed. Their attendents were not helpful in explaining how you might enjoy the showers - hot and cold.
    There is no hot tub. There are only 4 heated loungers, so you really can't stay there with a good book, as others will come in wanting to relax. I didnt like the steam room and the medium sauna was very hot and the mild sauna not hot enough.

    Been to the Senses Spa Rainforest my past 2 times on the Disney Dream. First time it was right after I turned 18 and I went on the cruise for my senior trip and last time me & my husband went on our honeymoon. Most relaxing part of the cruise! My first time in the spa I won the iniothermie(I think that's what it's called) wrap. Lost 2 inches around my waist, it would've costed me atleast $200. It was alright and good that I got it for free, but personally if you want it, just save your money. Not worth paying that much for it! I would HIGHLY recommend getting the full pass to the Rainforest so you can go everyday, whenever you want to. I can't tell you how many times I've fallen asleep in those stone chairs! I'm going on the Fantasy 7 Night cruise for the first time this coming up August with my whole family and I'm looking forward to the spa! The only problem is that I can't find the price for the full-week Rainforest pass...on the Dream it was $100 for couples and I think $70 for single, but it was 4 nights. Still worth it though!
