We’re getting our first real look at the spaces coming aboard the Disney Believe, and Disney Cruise Line has now revealed three new lounges that will pull inspiration from classic Disney stories, the sea, and even the stars.
The newly announced lineup includes Wishing Well, inspired by Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs; Sea Notes, an elegant piano lounge inspired by The Little Mermaid; and Skygazers, an observatory-themed pub filled with references to Disney characters who have wished upon a star.
Wishing Well
Wishing Well will be a storybook lounge inspired by Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. The newly released concept art gives us our first glimpse inside, showing a warm, garden-like space with greenery overhead, stained-glass details, cozy seating, and plenty of subtle nods to the animated classic.
It’s a much more grown-up interpretation of the film than a heavily themed character space, and I’m already curious to see how many Snow White details Imagineers manage to tuck into the finished lounge.
Sea Notes
Just off the Grand Hall, guests will find Sea Notes, an iridescent piano lounge inspired by Ariel’s grotto from The Little Mermaid.
A pearlescent piano sits at the center of the room, described by Disney as one of Ariel’s forgotten treasures. The concept art is gorgeous, with watery blues, curved architectural details, shell-like touches, and a ceiling fixture that looks as though it could have been pulled straight from the ocean.
Live piano music will add to the atmosphere, while the menu will feature specialty cocktails and non-alcoholic drinks. Disney says guests can also watch for nods to the animated film and its underwater setting throughout the space.
Skygazers
Then there’s Skygazers, which may be the most unexpected of the three. This observatory-themed pub is designed as an astronomer’s laboratory where guests can gather beneath an evening sky.
Bookshelves will be filled with astronomical instruments and celestial maps, but Disney fans will want to look a little closer. Hidden throughout the pub will be props and references to classic Disney stories featuring characters who made wishes upon stars of their own.
Skygazers will serve custom craft brews, specialty cocktails, and light bites. It will also show live sports broadcasts, giving the Disney Believe its own spot to grab a drink and catch a game without losing the storytelling found throughout the ship.
The artwork Disney has released for Skygazers is particularly fun, with familiar Disney characters scattered among the stars. I have a feeling we’ll be spending quite a bit of time trying to spot every reference once this place opens.
The Disney Believe will sail its maiden voyage from Fort Lauderdale on December 18, 2027, followed by 4- and 5-night cruises to The Bahamas and the Caribbean. Bookings open October 19, 2026.
