We recently went on a cruise with a 2.5 year old and he loved it! We had shown him YouTube videos up until that point, which he loved watching and always wanted to watch them whenever he came over to our house (we babysit him). While he was too young to go to the kid's clubs, something my family wouldn't do anyway, he is potty trained so he could go in the pools and he adored it, the Mickey pool being his favorite. I think it was mostly because he could comfortably stand there on his own without someone having to carry him like we do at home. The same goes for his ocean experience at Castaway Cay. He also loved the splash area as well with the slide and various floor fountains.
He also loved looking out of the windows. We had an Oceanview stateroom and he loved going up into the windows, my family had connecting staterooms, to look out. Even when we were in port he enjoyed going in there and looking out at all of the people leaving or coming on from the gangway.
Even though he didn't really eat much at dinner, he did fill up on french fries and ice cream on deck 11, fell asleep before the fireworks, and fell asleep during 2 theater performances, Believe and the magician, because he didn't really nap, he did see The Golden Mickey's and Beauty and the Beast and was just so enamored by them. There were points he was afraid at, but he enjoyed all of the singing and dancing.
Also, we kept our stroller in the closet in one of the rooms. It fit perfectly on one of the sides and we only pulled it out a couple of times, like when we were docked in Nassau. We actually rarely used it otherwise.
