In addition to dinner, the beloved Palo Brunch is also offered here on select days of the cruise. Chef Arnaud Lallement, a three Michelin Star recipient, brings world class luxurious dining onboard the Disney Wish. Concierge staterooms offer extra personalized service, concierge staff, and access to an exclusive Concierge Lounge and sun deck. Each of those staterooms falls into one of four primary types of rooms; each of those four types is further divided into multiple categories and subcategories. Which category you choose will have a rather substantial impact on the cost of your cruise, so it’s wise to research ahead. There’s still a waterslide-type ride onboard, but it adds some video animation effects to “plus up” the ride.
ALL CRUISE LINES (1543 SHIPS)
Disney Wish has a full roster of new Broadway-style shows, along with several other new entertainment offerings. The food was delicious here, and I appreciated the addition of a place to order premium coffee and other beverages adjacent to the market. I tried out Palo while on Disney Wish, and it was over-the-top amazing when it came to the service, the views and, of course, the food itself. The last of Disney Wish's new rotational restaurants is 1923, which is named after the year the Walt Disney Company was founded. I won't give away the ending, but you can expect a supervillain as well as some extra help from "good guys" like Captain Marvel and Captain America. You'll also need to use your quantum core in the battle against evil, so don't fill up too much on shrunken desserts until you save the ship.
Maiden voyage
Much like the fun Finding Nemo splash zones onboard the Disney Wish and Fantasy, young kids not quite ready for the pool can splash in fountains, whisk down slides, and safely bounce around a bit on the soft padded areas while cooling off. Note that some pools may be unavailable during portions of the cruise so they can be covered and used as stages/viewing areas for live entertainment. We’ve never had a bad meal from room service onboard Disney Cruise Line, but none of them have been particularly spectacular, either. Consider it a somewhat utilitarian option to get food in your stomach without having to change from your bathrobe, and you’ll be set up for room service success. Many Guests are surprised to learn that Room Service is included at no additional charge on their Disney Cruise. Almost everything on the room service menu — with the exception of a few items such as prepackaged candies or canned soft drinks — can be brought to your room at no additional charge.
Disney Wish Entertainment and Activities
Older teens and young adults (age 18-20) have a space designed just for them onboard the Disney Wish — the first ever on a Disney cruise ship. With a dance floor, DJ booth, and occasional karaoke contests, this space is a great “transition” space for those not quite ready to hit the adult clubs. There’s no shortage of pools and water splash zones onboard; ten, to be exact! Deck 11 is the home to most, though you’ll also find smaller ones scattered about elsewhere. There’s no entertainment at this restaurant; that’s not unexpected on most Disney ships — but for the Wish, it’s an outlier as the only rotational dining restaurant without a show. As such, our reviewers felt that this was the restaurant to skip if you’re on a shorter cruise and need to pick a night to experience Palo Steakhouse or Enchanté.
But the ship also caters every bit as well to couples without children who are looking for a premium cruise with all the big-ship bells and whistles. The exterior of the ship retains that same modern classic design, and you'll still have access to beloved Disney characters, Broadway-caliber shows and entertainment on board. Disney Wish is based out of Port Canaveral and sails a mix of three- and four-night sailings to the Bahamas. If you want more time on the ship, you can book back-to-back cruises to create your own seven-night journey.
Deck 8
Midship on decks there is a Mickey-themed family district with a total of 6x pools (various sized and with different depths) surrounded by spacious sundecks with plenty of sun loungers. Delivery of the Disney Wish was originally slated for late 2021 with sailings embarking in the early part of 2022. However, as a result of the pandemic, the dates slipped initially to a spring 2022 delivery with the maiden voyage scheduled for June 9, 2022. Then, in February 2022, it was announced there will be a second delay pushing the Maiden Voyage to July 14, 2022. It is worth noting, only this second delay impacted sailings as the first occurred well before the inaugural season went on sale.
Our Review of the Oceaneer Club onboard the Disney Wish
The Disney-Make-A-Wish partnership also includes creating and selling fleetwide Disney-themed merchandise, with 10% of the profits donated to the Foundation. Untangled Salon (Beauty Parlor) and Hook’s Barbery (Barber Shop/Men’s Salon) are DCL fleet's first venues dedicated to hair- and beauty services for adults. Ship's dress code is similar to Disney's luxury resorts - daily casual and evening resort casual - men with jackets (no ties) and pants, women - with summer dresses (optional gowns). All Disney Triton-Class ship cruise itineraries include one "pirate night" and one semi-formal night. On 3-day cruises, one night is casual, 4-days are with 2 casual evenings, on 5-days and longer - 3 nights are casual. The company's clientele consists almost entirely of North American travelers (USA and Canada).
Disney’s Oceaneer Club
The Vacationeer provides its clients with onboard credits of up to $1,000 to use toward spa/salon services and other purchases on the ship! What’s more, there’s no charge to use their planning services, and they always make sure you get the best possible price for your cruise. This one-of-a-kind theatrical adaptation of the beloved 1989 Disney animated film was created exclusively for the Disney Wish. With innovative theatrical design, dazzling special effects, and artistic choreography, the all-new script and score goes beyond the film to find new ways to delight. Enjoy pipe slides, ship’s wheels, activities and games, and even an occasional visit from Captains Mickey and Minnie.

The new ship will run on liquefied natural gas, a more environmentally friendly system. Watch the video above to see the lovable furry friends enjoy a sweet moment together. Near the end of the naming ceremony, three godchildren/Make-A-Wish children recited the traditional ship blessing.
According to the Disney story, King Triton is the protective and loving father of "The Little Mermaid" Ariel, as well as one of the most powerful Disney characters ever created. In the evenings, the Pool Deck hosts the "Pirate’s Rockin’ Parlay Party" - an outdoor deck party featuring live music, DJ programming, special effects, acrobatics, and ending with a fireworks display. In late-December 2020, DCL released a teaser video that revealed that the Disney character Cinderella will be the lobby statue positioned in the Atrium's lower/base level.
Overseeing culinary operations and teams of the 13 food and beverage locations at this resort is Executive Chef Kevin Chong. Last but certainly not least is Culinary Director Chef Scott Hunnel, who was at the helm of Victoria & Albert’s for many years and now provides his expertise and mentorship to culinary teams across multiple Disney Resort Hotels at Walt Disney World Resort. The culinary team upholding this long beloved and revered legacy is led by Chef de Cuisine Matthew Sowers, with nearly 20 years spent at Victoria & Albert’s and experience assisting in the creation of acclaimed menus for Remy on the Disney Dream and Disney Fantasy. Alongside him handling the sweeter side of the kitchen is Pastry Chef Ally Rogers, who leads the entire pastry team for the resort.
For the foreseeable future, Disney Wish will sail from Port Canaveral, Florida — one of three Disney cruise departure ports in Florida and the closest port to Walt Disney World. This high-end salon is inspired by Rapunzel from Disney’s Tangled, and offers a wide variety of hairstyling and other treatments. Infants as young as six months old — up through toddlers just shy of their third birthday — are cared for in this secure nursery onboard.
She entered service in June 2022 and will be followed by her sister ships the Disney Treasure in 2024 and the Disney Destiny in 2025. The other four ships in the fleet are the Disney Magic, Disney Wonder, Disney Dream, and Disney Fantasy. Shorter cruises aboard Disney Wish attract younger kids due to the length of time and lower price point, while longer sailings tend to involve multigenerational families and friends traveling together. A large percentage come from the Florida area (the ship's homeport is Port Canaveral, near Orlando), but Disney Wish is popular with those who have to fly -- often from other countries -- for a slice of Disney's magic at sea.
