Staterooms
The staterooms on the Disney Wish are bright and inviting in an upscale setting with touches of elegance from some of your favorite Disney princesses! They reinforce the overall theme of the ship – Enchantment. The artwork is stunning, and the Wish will continue to offer split bathrooms which is perfect for families.
There are 1254 staterooms, over 900 of which connect!
There are 76 different concierge rooms, including some 2-story Aurora themed suites with a grand staircase! How’s that for luxury?
If a 1-bedroom suite is more your style, you can choose a Tangled-inspired stateroom! Maybe you just want an oceanview stateroom unlike any other? Then you should choose a Little Mermaid themed stateroom directly above the bridge with floor to ceiling windows for an absolutely breathtaking view!
Entertainment
Entertainment options will abound on the Disney Wish. The Grand Hall, or atrium, will include a stage for performances with a beautiful Juliet balcony above. Guests will be front and center for the entertainment!
Luna is a brand new entertainment area on decks 4 AND 5 which will transform from a daytime family setting to an adult entertainment area at night.
The Hero Zone is a futuristic sports arena for families interested in some fun competitions.
Walt Disney Theatre will be themed like a magical forest! There will be two additional theaters as well – the Wonderland and Never Land Cinemas! So many options for film viewing.
Adult Dining
Disney will again offer two adult only dining opportunities. Palo is coming back as Palo Steakhouse! An elegant steakhouse with décor inspired by Cogsworth from Beauty and the Beast.
Enchante will be the Lumiere themed French restaurant helmed by Chef Arnaud Lallement, a three Michelin star chef!
Main Dining Rooms
Disney Cruise Line is well known to have pioneered the concept of rotational dining, and the Wish will continue to offer it through their three entirely new Main Dining Rooms.
For an elegant experience, you’ll visit 1923. 1923 celebrates the golden age of animation, and is named after the year The Walt Disney Company was founded. The menu will feature California infused cuisine.
For the first time in forever, guests can dine in with some Frozen friends at Arendelle: A Frozen Dining Adventure. Arendelle will be an entertainment focused dining experience with a stage in the round where diners will celebrate Anna and Kristoff’s engagement!
For a one of a kind technology dining experience, guests will visit Worlds of Marvel, an interactive dining adventure!
Lounges
We know a little bit about two of the lounges onboard and they sound spectacular!
For anyone interested in galactic travel, Star Wars: Hyperspace Lounge is a high end bar where guests can travel to different planets while discovering other worldly drinks!
Outside Enchante and Palo, adults can enjoy a pre or post dinner drink at The Rose, an elegantly themed lounge inspired by Beauty and the Beast.
Pool Deck
The pool deck is divided into three districts, the adult only district, Mickey and Friends district and the Toy Story district.
Quiet Cove is the adult only area and will feature a Moana themed Cove Café, a poolside bar and an infinity pool with amazing views!
The Mickey and Friends district will have the first ever attraction at sea – The AquaMouse! The AquaMouse has a storyline called Scuba Scramble, with music, special effects and show scenes – all on a raft ride! At sea! The ride itself is over two minutes long and the height requirement will be 42 inches on that one! The Mickey and Friends district is also where you will find the quick service restaurant options and six different pools on tiered decks.
The third area, the Toy Story district, is the perfect place for families with a Toy Story Splash Zone, Slide-a-saurus Rex, Wheezies Freezies, and a wading pool.
Oceaneer Club
The Oceaneer Club on deck 2, which is inspired by Disney, Marvel and Star Wars, will have a unique entry for its young guests – a slide from deck 3!
Once there, kids ages 3-12 can design their own virtual roller coaster in the Walt Disney Imagineering Lab, choose their own hero suit in the Super Hero Academy, or explore the world of princesses in Fairytale Hall.
