Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point Updates: Disney Cruise Line’s Newest Tropical Destination

April 29, 2024

Hello, travelers! Follow along for exclusive updates as we await the grand opening of Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point, Disney Cruise Line’s newest, one-of-a-kind tropical retreat on the island of Eleuthera, The Bahamas.

Today, we’re excited to share new photos from here in Eleuthera, including a new look at the Bahamian-inspired art and architecture taking shape at this one-of-a-kind island destination.

Cabanas

Nestled along the sand dunes of Serenity Bay, the vibrantly colored architecture of the Serenity Bay Cabanas matches the Mabrika Cove Cabanas, which sit across Disney Lookout Cay at the arrival point of the destination.

Steps away from Serenity Bay BBQ and the area’s beach bar, these cabanas will be available for rent to offer a retreat for adults to take in Eleuthera’s stunning sand dunes and shimmering ocean waves.

Local Art

The bright turquoise ocean here in Eleuthera is beautiful, yes, but don’t forget to look up while you’re exploring Disney Lookout Cay. Art from talented, local Bahamian artists will take shape throughout all of the spaces at the destination, including intricate wood carvings inspired by artist Andret John and colorful murals by painter Dorman Stubbs, as seen here.

True-True Too BBQ

True-True Too BBQ is a beautiful example of the architecture designed to look like oversized seashells scattered across the shores of Disney Lookout Cay. These uniquely designed dining pavilions will offer shade from your day of adventures on the Nature Trail or the beach, serving up views of Bahamian art, nature, and of course, delicious lunch!

Today, we’re excited to reveal new character looks for Donald Duck, Daisy Duck, Goofy, Pluto, and Chip and Dale for their visits to Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point! Acclaimed Bahamian fashion designer Theodore Elyett created these adorable looks, which showcase the vibrant spirit of the beloved Bahamian tradition, Junkanoo.

Disney Cruise Line’s newest island destination, Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point on the island of Eleuthera, opens this summer. This beautiful destination will offer a window into the rich culture, warm hospitality and breathtaking natural beauty of The Bahamas.

Today, we’re excited to share first-look photos of construction progress, which give a glimpse of the inspiration and stunning architecture of Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point.

Cabanas

The vibrant colors and patterns designed by a Bahamian artist dotting the beautiful shores of Disney Lookout Cay? Those are the Mabrika Cove Cabanas, which will be available for families to relax and play along the white sand and turquoise Bahamian waters.

Among the first sights guests will see when approaching Disney Lookout Cay, the colorful cabanas will set a tone for the vibrant and beautiful architecture throughout the island destination.

True-True Too BBQ

Walt Disney Imagineering designed the architecture throughout Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point to resemble a series of colorful, oversized seashells scattered along the coastline. From these beautiful decks under the shade of a shell-inspired pavilion, guests will enjoy some tasty lunch from True-True Too BBQ while taking in the beautiful views of the ocean and sand dunes.

Can you spot some nature-inspired art under the pavilion? That is just a peek of the art that will fill these beautiful spaces, all drawn from the coral, seashells, fish, and flowers that inform the architecture and also inspire Eleuthera’s local artists.

Tram Stop

Another early sight of Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point is one of our tram stops. This space will soon be filled with the bright colors that will light up the destination, inspired by the warmth of Bahamian art and culture. Expect hair braiding, merchandise, and lots of fun.

Stay tuned for more exciting updates as we count down the days to June!

Mickey and Minnie Mouse will have new looks specially designed by acclaimed Bahamian fashion designer Theodore Elyett whenever they visit Disney Cruise Line’s newest island destination, Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point on the island of Eleuthera. The garments will have a distinct Bahamian flair, inspired by the bright, colorful spirit of Junkanoo, the country’s signature festival filled with joyous music and vibrant parades.

First Look: New Character Outfits Revealed for Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point

By: Disney Destinations

April 24, 2024

Today, we’re excited to reveal new character looks for Donald Duck, Daisy Duck, Goofy, Pluto, and Chip and Dale for their visits to Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point! Acclaimed Bahamian fashion designer Theodore Elyett created these adorable looks, which showcase the vibrant spirit of the beloved Bahamian tradition, Junkanoo.

Theodore designed all eight looks with traditional Junkanoo style in mind, including eye-catching details like fringe. Can you spot it in Goofy’s vest? Like Mickey Mouse’s conch shell shorts and Minnie Mouse’s pineapple purse, Bahamian island inspiration also makes these vacation looks especially bright—check out the ocean waves and sun rays in Donald Duck and Chip and Dale’s looks.

“I envisioned creating a collection that not only highlighted Bahamian culture, but one that also allowed Mickey and his pals to look and feel as though they were comfortably on vacation, island style,” said Theodore. “’Junkanoo Fun in the Sun’ is an exclusive line-up of all things Bahamian, celebrating the beauty of The Bahamas, all tailored to match the varying personalities of Mickey and his pals.”

To match Mickey and Minnie Mouse’s raffia accessories, the natural Bahamian straw handiwork is woven into these outfits with straw visors, oversized beach hats and bucket hats on Donald and Daisy Duck, Goofy, and Chip and Dale. The adorable raffia poms on the dresses, shoes, hat brims and shoulder straps are also a nod to this traditional Bahamian craft!

Now, can we take a moment for Daisy Duck’s hat? And Goofy’s socks? Pluto looks vacation-ready with his dapper collar!

To learn more about Theodore Elyett and his inspiration for these fabulous outfits, take a look at this video. 

Stay tuned for more exciting Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point updates before the destination opens in June!
