Disney Wish debuts lavish two-story tower suite housed in a funnel

The Wish tower suite will be a 1,966-square-foot penthouse housed in the forward funnel of the new Disney Wish.

Offering incomparable ocean views and premium Disney service, the two-story suite has an interior look inspired by Walt Disney Animation Studios’ 'Moana.'

Sleeps up to eight

Disney Cruise Line said the Wish tower suite will be its most unusual accommodation yet. It will sleep up to eight guests with two main bedrooms, a children’s room, a library that converts to a bedroom and 4.5 bathrooms.

The living room will be flanked by an open dining area, a large pantry and a bar, all offering extraordinary views across the upper decks to the horizon through an expansive two-story window wall.

Located on the upper-level loft, the main bedrooms will be lavish and serene with king beds, walk-in closets and floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the living area below to the views beyond. The main bathrooms will each have double vanities, soaking tubs and rain showers.

'Moana' artwork and iconography

The Wish tower suite is being designed with artwork, iconography and materials that evoke the Oceania-inspired world of 'Moana.' A soothing palette of calm blues, soft whites and deep corals will lay the foundation for family rest and relaxation, while creative ornaments and custom artwork will convey sophisticated nods to the characters and locales of the film.

The piece de resistance will be a hand-crafted porcelain sculpture that comes alive. When guests arrive, they may discover the statue pulsing in myriad hues of green amid soft chimes that recall the film’s distinctive soundtrack, revealing itself as the heart of Te Fiti. The special lighting and audio effects will eventually fill the room to provide a magical greeting.

Other film-inspired decorations include a custom canvas piece depicting Moana sailing on the sea and dimensional props that celebrate ocean treasures and the local crafts of Moana’s village. A glittering sculpture composed of shiny objects provides a playful interpretation of Tamatoa’s collection. The children’s room, which will feature uniquely designed built-in bunkbeds, will have a sparkling constellation pattern that lights up the ceiling to reveal imagery from the movie composed entirely of stars: Moana’s oar, Gramma Tala, Maui’s hook and the heart of Te Fiti.

Service and amenities

Wish tower suite guests will get the royal treatement including a personal concierge team, an array of curated experiences, a selection of daily treats and a private elevator.

Amenities include plush Frette duvets, bed linens, bath towels and robes; motorized sheer and block-out curtains; a wet bar stocked with water and sodas; complimentary Internet access; and a deluxe menu of hypoallergenic, feather and therapeutic memory foam pillows.

VIP access to the concierge lounge and sun deck with two whirlpools, a wading pool, a bar, lush lounge furniture and a pool deck host are other amenities.

Disney Wish is scheduled to sail its maiden voyage from Port Canaveral June 9, 2022, followed by a season of three- and four-night cruises to Nassau and Castaway Cay. Bookings open May 27.
