Disney Cruise Lines new heroes and villains themed ship will have a piano bar themed after the notorious Cruella De Vil.
Guests on Disney Treasure will be able to experience this boldly themed space which will be lavishly decorated in her signature color palette of red, black and white.
But it may have one feature which will be controversial.
The Piano Bar will be located where Nightingale’s is on Disney Wish.
One of my favorite moments in the Golden Mickeys show is the fabulous performance by Corella De Vil, so I am beyond excited to see that she will have her own themed bar on Disney Destiny.
It seems to be that Disney Destiny is making use of different technology in the De Vil Piano Lounge, perhaps similar to the screen in Hyperspace Lounge on Disney Wish.
We have learned that there will be a glowing fiber optic Cruella that appears and disappears in the wall behind an eye-catching spotted piano.
One other detail, which is perhaps surprising, is that De Vil’s will have one side of the lounge open to the Grand Hall.
This is not how Nightingale’s is designed – as this bar on Disney Wish is located off the Grand Hall, but is entirely enclosed, albeit with glass walls.
I am not sure how it will work that the bar is open to the Grand Hall.
I can see that it will be a more inclusive space. Nightingale’s is a beautiful space, but you really can be well into your cruise before you discover it.
The reveal for Disney Destiny described the concept that you will be able to enjoy the De Vil lounge and also have a view of the Grand Hall.
Might be great for people watching, and getting a sense of the grandeur of the design, but I can see that people are not necessarily going to like that open space. It will certainly be interesting to see what guests think.
One criticism of the design of Disney Wish is that there are bars that are open spaces, The Bayou is a beautiful bar on Disney Wish, but it is open on all sides will guests walking past. It will be interesting to see how the open concept works with De Vil’s.
One thing that De Vil’s is sure to have, is an innovative cocktail menu. Disney Wish really elevated the cocktail experience on the Disney Ships, and no doubt Disney Treasure and Disney Destiny will take things up a notch as well.
What do you think about the De Vil Lounge?
