I'll happily admit to being a sucker for a suite at sea and Disney concierge service amenities,but all of the cabins on Wish are a big step up for Disney Cruise Line. Disney Wish cabins have a more subdued and upscale vibe than the cabins on Disney's four other ships, with a fairy-tale aesthetic featuring flourishes of gold and hidden surprises, su...
Star Wars: Hyperspace Lounge takes you to another galaxy
I'll spare you the "out of this world" puns to describe the adult-focused Star Wars: Hyperspace Loungeon Disney Wish. However, after watching (and feeling) the ship make multiple jumps to hyperspace, I can tell you this is a must-visit spot to grab a drink. You'll love sipping a space-themed cocktail at the bar while watching ships pass by — even if you don't go for the $5,000 "Star Wars" drink. Ships from all timelines of the "Star Wars" franchise fly across seven monitors that feature such...
The waterslide is more than just a waterslide
If you've sailed on Disney Dream or Disney Fantasy, you've likely experienced the AquaDuck waterslide. Disney is calling the AquaMouse (the waterslide on Disney Wish) the "first-ever Disney attraction at sea," which is a big statement for a company that knows attractions. The AquaMouse, which any cruiser who is at least 42 inches tall can ride, features show scenes, lighting effects, a dark tunnel, an original soundtrack and more than 60 water effects for a two-minute ride that spans 760 feet...
Lots of (really good) pools
One feature that was a bit under-hyped leading up to the first Wish sailing was the pools. There are more of them on Disney Wish than you'll find on the other Disney ships, and they are spread out, so you have a better chance of finding one that is tucked away and less crowded. The adults-only pool is especially worth mentioning, as it is an infinity pool that looks off the back of the ship. That said, all of the pools are much better than others I've seen on Disney Cruise Line.
The first four Disney cruise ships revolutionized dinner at sea by introducing a trio of themed restaurants where you — and the serving crew and other guests — rotate together throughout the nights of your cruise. Disney Wish retains the rotational dining format but with a lineup of all-new dining experiences. Related: Preview of food to be served ...
The list of places to eat aboard Disney Wish is actually even longer than the three previously mentioned rotational dining restaurants. For those willing to spend a little extra (and lucky enough to snag a reservation), the adults-only restaurants on Wish shouldn't be missed. Options include Palo Steakhouse, which combines the best of high-end Ital...
For families, one of the best parts of a family cruise with Disney Cruise Line is that kids often wantto go to the complimentary kids clubs. This gives grown-ups a chance to have a drink, not rush through dinner and enjoy a few moments to themselves. While this holds true on all the Disney ships, my 6-year-old never wanted to leave the kids club on...
Olaf's Royal Picnic
If your kids have always wanted to celebrate summer via a picnic with Olaf in Arendelle's Castle, they are in luck on the Wish. Set in an indoor space with a backdrop of a meadow of flowers, Olaf's Royal Picnic features Olaf, Anna, Elsa, Kristoff and a song-filled picnic complete with a ton of goodies for the kids to keep. Unlike the included rotational restaurants, this experience costs extra. Expect to pay a hefty fee of $220 per child and $69 per adult. We weren't able to try it out during...
Wishing wands
A Disney Cruise Line embarkation greeting was already extremely special, but the company has dialed up the magic for kids sailing on Disney Wish. Every child that boards the ship receives a wishing wand to make a "first wish" of the trip and to wish again in the Grand Hall on the final night of the voyage. The latter even features a special appearance by none other than the ship's Fairy Godmother, who kicks off a farewell show.
Inside Out: Joyful Sweets
If you've visited Vanellope's Sweets & Treats Shop on Disney Dream, you already know how big children's eyes can get over the massive sundaes and sugary concoctions. On the Wish, there's a new dessert shop called Inside Out: Joyful Sweets, where about 40 flavors of gelato and ice cream are served. So far, I can vouch for the PB&J and Kit Kat gelato flavors — but really, you can't go wrong with any flavor you choose. There are even a few plant-based options available. Should you crave a cupcak...
While the kids are at the variety of clubs designed for them, adults can take advantage of spaces for the 18-and-older crowd. In fact, that's one reason why I love Disney cruises so much — the kids wantto do the kids activities, which means adults get to enjoy amenities designed for us, too. The adults-only spaces on Disney Wish are not clustered t...
Disney Wish has a full roster of new Broadway-style shows, along with several other new entertainment offerings. On embarkation night in the Walt Disney Theatre, which now has an enchanted forest design, there is a "Disney Seas The Adventure" show that stars Captain Minnie, Goofy and other Disney and Pixar characters. Disney Wish is also home to "A...
While it wasn't quite operational on our preview cruise, a few months ago, Disney gave TPG a sneak peek at an all-new way that guests can become a part of the story of the ship — and even control some of what happens on board — via the Disney Uncharted Adventure interactive game. This game continues the Disney tradition of using technology to unloc...
