During the first panel of the event, Disney revealed to us the name of their new Cruise Line Island Destination!
Disney is working on a NEW private island — called Lighthouse Point — for its cruise ships but there’s something important about it that you might not have realized.

Disney’s retreat on the island is set to have architecture inspired by nature and will embody a “unique celebration of Bahamian culture brought to life with the quality and service of a Disney vacation.” There will be a family beach, a Bahamian art and culture pavilion, a family water play area, and MUCH more. And it’ll all be located on the Bahamian island of Eleuthera. But Disney does NOT have this island all to itself!
The Disney Treasure is set to make its debut on seas in July 2024, and today, its construction reached a new milestone.
