Sitting just off the atrium, Bon Voyage is one of the prettiest, if not smallest, of the Dream’s bars, with just ten seats at the counter, plus four covered armchairs a few feet away. The two highlights here are the gorgeous Art Deco mural behind the bar, which shows well-heeled passengers in 1920’s formalwear departing their touring cars to board the Dream; and the swirled, maize-yellow, illuminated bar face, which reflects gold light off the beige marble floors.

Bon Voyage’s bar menu is similar to those at The District, and includes draft and bottled beer, wines by the glass and bottle, spirits and mixed drinks, including a few special fruit-flavored martinis. Service is excellent.

Located near the atrium, and open from around noon to 11 p.m. daily, Bon Voyage is a good spot for groups to meet before dinner or to have a nightcap before departing for the elevators. Because it’s in a heavily-trafficked area, there’s no live entertainment at the bar, nor is it our first choice for a quiet drink or conversation.

Comparing the Ships

Both the Dream and Fantasy have Bon Voyage bars located just off the Deck 3 atrium; the Promenade Lounges are the comparable bars on the Wonder and Magic. The Dream’s Bon Voyage bar is the most appealing, even without live entertainment.
